Vouw. This is really telling for me. Thanks.I haven't seen any studies on untrained lifters and caloric deficits, so I don't know. I'd just be making stuff up if I answered.
When I'm in a deficit, I don't use hypertrophy style programming; in a deficit I'm using either strength or power programming.
I save hypertrophy programming for when I'm in a surplus because it's a lot more effective to add muscle in a surplus, which is the whole point of hypertrophy programming.
