just eat 300 cals or so above maintenance
Man if there was a true Super Soldier Serum like that, fuck I'm all in!
Honestly the nutrition part is the least important. As long as you're not consistently over-eating and gaining/losing weight too consistently or too fast, things will probably sort out just fine in the long run. Especially if you're a young male. People mistakingly put too much emphasis on nutrition.
The most important part is training and consistency. Workouts should be daily, intense, hard, and mostly hypertrophy-oriented if you're concerned with body recomposition. Some low semi-regular intensity cardio can help with the fat loss aspect as well.
Mmmm, not sure about that. At least not for me.
I'm 34 and I lifted for years and was only in ok shape. Once I consciously started focusing on my nutrition did I bust through my ceiling. My training also improved a little bit but my nutrition is what changed most dramatically so I chalk up the changes to that a bit more.

I don't think eating chocolate chips and doing Bicep curls was what he meant. Think he assumed decent nutrition and training but just meant that obsessing over nutrition wasn't necesarry.
you can't out-train a bad diet
just eat 300 cals or so above maintenance
I also want to point out how absurb this is. There is no way any human alive can reasonably eat "300kcal above maintenance" on a consistent basis.
The error range around estimating your own caloric needs + the error range of estimating the caloric content of your diet is well over +/- 300kcal. Not to mention, one day of overeating or undereating even slightly more than normal (you know, like how normal people live) would throw fuck up a weeks worth of work.
Training > diet.
Curious as to what your background is with all of these statements regarding the uselessness of a good diet.
Having to train more to compensate for a bad diet in order to achieve a desired body composition does not seem like very good management when the same effect could be achieved with less time/energy by utilizing a good diet and consistent workouts.
Or they interpret "training > diet" exactly as it is said.
