Weight Loss Coaching: Small Tweaks, Big Wins

🔥

Chris has dropped 13 lbs (246→233) with ~1 hr/day walking, solid protein (~170g) and ~2,000–2,100 kcal. He feels better but hit a plateau. We cover four fixes: add weighted leg work, balance with back/pulling, track simple progressive overload, and add one short interval session weekly. We also hit knee-friendly lunge tweaks, whether to cut calories (don’t—for now), and why mood/journaling keeps him consistent. Ends with next week’s garage-gym leg basics teaser.
