I see many ladies getting tripped up about losing weight.
They immediately go straight to doing tons of cardio to get those scale pounds down, down, down.
And that works – in the short term. With the water weight they initially lose coupled with the food restriction they adhere to, which is totally common with the basic fat loss approach we’ve all done, myself included!
If you are struggling to lose weight, your focus should be in this order:
- Food
- Lifting
- Cardio
The best approach is to tackle all 3 above. But again, this can be overwhelming and daunting for so many returning to self care and fitness.
For my ladies, I encourage a balance of food and cardio but focus on strength training to start to really make them feel good.
They lift, They get strong. They lose some inches and scale weight and then they are motivated to fuel their bodies properly so they can continue on to get stronger and lift heavier.
Sometimes the linear path isn’t always so liner. I work with you on the key action items that will work with your Personal Preferences, your Profession and your Psychology. Cuz look, we aren’t the Stepford Wives over here, am I right?
