Gaining weight and building muscles while losing belly fat.

I'm pretty skinny and weak, but at the same I've time got a "nice" amount of belly fat which i need to lose.
I've started training in the gym a few weeks ago but I'm worried about the amount of Carbohydrates I am eating.
I don't want to eat too little because i am afraid my body will burn more than i gain.
but at the same time i don't want to eat too much so the belly fat won't grow even bigger.

I have the same dilemma about Aerobic exercise, it seems a good idea to go for a running on the days when I'm not
at the gym, because it's known to be good for fat loss, but then again I am afraid to burn too much calories which i do not need to lose, since I need to gain mass and not lose some.

What would you suggest?

Thanks, and sorry for my English.
Alex.
 
One of the best ways to reduce tummy fat while muscular developing at the same time is by punching or using a cedar. Figure out the best way for you to reduce shed weight while getting muscular. You're resting smooth, you want to raise the go. You want to raise the feet and dash, pow, you want to prepare the primary, prepare the abdominal muscles, prepare the low returning and dash, that's aerobic, that's getting it done
 
This is, in a nutshell, how it works...

Burn more than "calories in" while lifting weights and doing some cardio - maintain most muscle mass and lower body fat percentage. You don't gain muscle during this period. You simply retain.

Eat more than "calories burned" while lifting weight - Build muscle and put on some fat. This is called "Bulking"

Burn more than "calories in" while doing only cardio and no weight lifting - Body turns to muscles for nutrients and you lose muscle and some fat, and have "skinny fat" look. Your body loses muscle mass, because you aren't using your muscles to lift.

You are not going to lose fat and build muscle at the same time, unless you are on gear, and you especially aren't going to lose it just in your stomach. There is no such thing as spot reduction. You can only reduce overall body fat percentage. The only safe way to lose fat and not muscle is to lift weights and eat in a caloric deficit. You need to figure out how many calories your body needs to maintain every day and eat anywhere from 300-500 cals less a day. Lose weight slowly, not quickly. You are much safer that way. You can do cardio if you wish while lifting weights, but this will increase your body's caloric maintenance, so you will need to eat more to stay within your 300-500 range. Your body will eat up muscle before it burns fat, as there is no nutritional value to fat, so your body doesn't want to use it. So you have to be sure to lift heavy to keep the muscle you already have and don't eat too little, as your body will still turn to muscle for nutrients to recover. Patience is the most important rule when it comes to lifting and weight loss. Nothing happens over night.

P.s. - Regarding the "Lifting heavy while losing weight" statement. Do not let anybody tell you otherwise. People will tell you that during periods of weight loss to lift for light weight and high reps, which is 100% wrong. To maintain muscle, your body needs to be put under the stress of heavy weight to know that it needs to keep the muscle. If your body knows it doesn't have to bench 200lbs anymore, then it's not going to keep the muscle necessary to do that, especially if you are eating in a deficit.
