This is a continuation of a long topic, addressed by post number rather than by page. Start at post 1.
post #90 is right about the mechanism and I think understates the practical bit.
Post-weight-loss training: once weight loss is complete and energy deficit ends, training can shift to building again. The transition from preservation mode to building mode is real and worth planning.
Worth separating two things that post #88 runs together.
Programming while losing weight quickly: realistic expectations are crucial. Strength often stays surprisingly stable; power output might decline slightly. Expecting gains during an energy deficit sets yourself up for disappointment.
