Beginners can gain a few pounds of muslce (2-3lbs typically) when they first start training but the purpose of resistance training is the following:
Maintain your LBM (lean body mass). LBM is what gives you your metabolism. If you want to burn calories - you need to preserve your muscle mass (this includes heart, lungs, organs, skeleton, skin etc.). The fat on your body doesn't burn calories - muscle does.
Boost your calories burned. A well structured exercise program based on interval training or resistance of any sorts will burn calories quickly and efficiently. Often times better than a bike ride or run.
Make you feel great - honestly, getting good at resistance training is a life changing event for many. You'll be amazed at how much stronger you feel. The stronger and fitter you feel the more likely you'll make a real change with your weight.
Here's the thing - you can't gain weight while following Mike Geary's Truth About Abs because you're eating a caloric deficit. If you follow the plans laid out inMike Geary's eBooks you'll eat enough but not over eat. As long as this is the case - the resistance training is just priming your metabolism, burning fat and helping you to get a leaner, meaner physique. The other key to priming fat burning with resistance training is eating the right amounts of protein while you work out. Protein not only is necessary for preserving your lean body during your diet but it also satiates your appetite. More than any other macro-nutrient - protein is the appetite killer. Imagine eating 5 egg whites and 2 egg yolks in the morning with a slice of toast. Your plate will be full of food and you'll feel stuffed for hours. The kicker is, this protein rich meal is going to be less than 500 calories! Add some veggies along with this breakfast and you're eating something that is not only nourishing to your health, filling you up (so you NEVER feel hungry) but also helping you tolose that stubborn belly fat. In summary - the key, the real "SECRET" to all of this is proper exercise (not just blindly working out but being focused and doing the right exercises) and sensible eating (not starving yourself but eating the right KINDS of foods).
