Spot burning of fat is a myth. You either lose fat all over the body or you don't.


But to asnwer the original question.


To gain muscle weight means to gain some fat too. Also to lose fat means to lose some muscle mass.

This is genetic, when the body gets more calories it will store extra fat for famine times. During the cardio because you burn more cal than you consume the body thinks it reched famine times and will start consuming the fat, however all that muscle mass is seen as a liability since it consumes so much energy therefore the body will try to get rid of the it.


So get as big as you want, then when you reach the desired muscle mass plus some extra, start doing cardio. You will lose the fat and your muscle definition will show(of course during the cardio you will lose some muscle mass but this is why i mentioned the extra mass)
