🍱 You hear fitness experts all the time saying you can eat what you want and still lose weight….is that true or is that a myth⁉️ ➡️ Fact is you CAN eat what you want and lose weight IF you stay in a caloric deficit….meaning you eat fewer calories that you burn. Everyone has diets they like….paleo, keto, atkins, carnivore, vegan, vegetarian, etc. Truth is they all work, but they work not because of what you are actually eating but because you are eliminating entire food groups which naturally restricts calories. ➡️ The way I like to do it is by tracking calories and macros (protein, carbs, fats). This is the most flexible and can allow you to eat what you want‼️ Once you understand and master this concept you truly have the freedom to eat what you want‼️

Let’s get real: spending hours on the treadmill might not be the best use of your time if you’re chasing real fitness results. Yes, cardio has its place, but here’s why it’s overrated: 1. Cardio Burns Calories, But… It’s temporary. As soon as you step off the treadmill, the calorie burn stops. Strength training, on the other hand, builds muscle, which boosts your metabolism and helps you burn calories even while you rest. 2. It’s Not the Best for Fat Loss If your goal is to lose fat, cardio alone won’t cut it. Pairing strength training with a proper diet is far more effective for long-term results. 3. Too Much Cardio = Muscle Loss Overdoing cardio can actually break down muscle tissue, making it harder to achieve that lean, strong look you’re working for. 4. It’s a Time Suck Why spend an hour jogging when a 30-minute high-intensity interval training (HIIT) session can torch more calories, build strength, and improve endurance? The Fix? • Focus on strength training for long-term fat loss and muscle building. • If you are going to do cardio add in short bursts of HIIT for cardiovascular health without overdoing it or Low Intensity cardio to prioritize stored fat burn • Prioritize balance over endless hours of cardio. 💬 What’s your go-to workout?
