Adding muscle without adding fat. Is it possible?

I am getting too fat....time to get cut for summer.

I'm just wondering if you could say something about being "too fat" just once more in this post. I don't think it's necessary to put on a great deal of fat and still gain muscle. But if you're idea of getting fat is that you only have a 4 pack instead of a 6 pack then you might as well hang it up.

Guys & their precious abs, you have mags like mens health to thank for that. "I wanna stay ripped to the bone but also put a tone of muscle on". Man up

Wasn't an issue when I was younger but as you get older it becomes more difficult to lose fat once you gain it.

I have been gaining muscle but also fat in the midsection and that will be hard to remove than it was when I was younger, for sure. That is my issue and the part that worries me. Now, with the summer coming, I may concentrate on getting ripped and look to gain more muscle in the fall.

Sad fact is I don't see to many sub 10% vegans around here. At one time I would have thought otherwise. Macro ratios have more of an impact on muscle/fat than most vegans want to admit.
