they can still gain muscle while losing fat at the same time. However,
it's going to be a bit more difficult.
They will have to be stricter
with their nutrition program and manipulate the amount of cardio they do
in addition to their weight training in order to optimize fat loss
while building lean muscle mass.
As you become more advanced it gets even harder to simultaneously
build muscle while burning bodyfat. The better shape you are in, the
harder it is to make further improvements. Now this doesn't mean that
making progress isn't possible, it just means that it's going to take a
lot more work than it took to get the initial results you got as a
beginner.
This is why advanced bodybuilders have to cycle their training
from off-season mass building phases
(i.e. bulking) to pre-contest fat loss phases
(i.e. cutting). At the highest levels of bodybuilding you can't effectively gain muscle and lose fat at the same time. You have to focus on one or the other and cycle your diet and training accordingly.
In order to maximize muscle growth you'll have to be in a caloric surplus, and a side effect of this is that you'll probably gain some excess bodyfat in the process.
And vice versa - when you are training to maximize fat loss you'll have to be in a strict caloric deficit, and thus you may lose some muscle while going for that ultra ripped look. At the advanced level it requires delicate balance of cycling back and forth between bulking and cutting in order to develop a bigger and leaner physique over the long term.
