Lifting making me gain
Been lifting 3-4x a week consistently for the last 3 months. I love going to to the gym and feeling stronger, I’ve never worked on my upper body strength before. Noticing some changes in my body but feel like my clothes are tighter!! Been trying to eat at maintenance or a little bit less, hitting my protein goals, but have gained like 6 lbs? Went from 130 to 136 I’m a 5’7” female. Is this just a fluid retention thing? Should I be implementing some more cardio? Eating less? Any help is appreciated:-)
