How to bulk but lose belly fat

So I think I'm skinny fat but the problem is I want to get bigger but at the same time I want to remove my belly fat. I lift weights 2 times a week (DB chest press, bench press, triceps, biceps, lat pulldowns...). I want to get bigger but I also want to get rid of my belly fat. Any idea how to do this? My height is 6'1 and 188 pounds

lmao start by lifting more than 2 times a week

make it 4 times a week

• drop the soda and sugary drinks
• calorie deficit but high protein intake
• start lifting double the amount you're currently lifting and hit high intensity cardio on one day (swimming, running, do some cable crunches and hanging leg raises, also start squatting)

make it 6 times a week

I couldn't lift that much if I try 4 times a week lil bro. Isn't it good to give muscles to recover so I can lift fresh and heavy everytime?

Do more cardio and do more exercises in weight, do cardio after weights, and get a diet that actually works for YOU not in general

Eat more protein stay in a 500 calorie defecit from your maintenance (you can find your maintenance from a calorie calculator website) Do at least 30mins of cardio after each workout session

Just find Protein Dense/Low Calories tings
prime example is Chicken Breast or... even dried squid

edit: some of the things ppl saying here is valid

u r illiterate big bro

If you train 2x a week you better be hitting Mike Mentzer levels of intensity and like 7 sets per muscle per workout my guy.

Train 3-5x a week (hit each muscle group with 3-5 sets per workout depending on how many workouts, 5 for 3 day split and 3 for 5 split.)

Hit a calorie deficit while still eating high protein (make absolutely sure u use a calorie tracking app like lifesum, I use it too sometimes.)

On your off-days, try fitting in swimming, walking, running or some form of “cardio”, even if its just pingpong or tennis (just go outside and dont sit on ur ass all day when u dont gym).

Good luck!

Probs 90% of the progress here would be in your diet. All about maintaining that caloric deficit while keeping your protein intake roughly inline with what your body needs to build muscle. You'll probably find with better fuel your body can overtime increase the number of sessions it can do (if your still highly fatigued for long periods of time check your water intake, get proper sleep and I'd say considersomething like creatine to help with recovery is worth a consideration).

Also when you are inevitably still hungry (calorie deficit just do that to you) reach for the zero calorie soda/pop/whatever else American call soft drink. They ain't that bad for you macro wise (and even long term their really only an issue for your teeth) and carbonated drinks are shown to be very effective against hunger.

make it 8 times a week

go clean bulk and cut later, find your daily caloric output and increase it by 500-700, go bulk for 2-3 months then go on a cut, ull gain muscle mass and u can just cut down the body fat later when u cut, try a 3 day split ( push pull leg / upper lower upper )

Oh, I didn't know that the best way to answer a question was to insult the other person. I will keep that in mind for next time.

yes but you can't only workout 2 times a week, you should implement a proper split, most common one is push, pull, legs, then start by actually bulking, don't dirty bulk, build muscle in that bulk and not just fat, then once you cut, boom, chad build, gonna take approx. 2 years so enjoy the grind
