This is the only lifting I fit in today!

But I did fit in some cardio.

Hope to see you in Vegas!!

Are you lifting or strength training? How often per week?

Put on your fav music & go to work!

You may not love the look of muscle but trust me, without muscle, trying to lose weight or get the to the figure or fitness level you want, is SO MUCH harder if you’re not fitting in strength training, with weights OR with body weight as with PiYo. With crazy calorie restriction, you lose muscle & sanit. And as we age, we CONSTANTLY lose muscle. Unless you get ahead of that loss & actually make gains!

But you DO have to trust the process & not obsess over the scale. If you’re lifting, eating within your calorie & nutrient needs, doing cardio, drinking water & sleeping. Your body fat % will DROP, inches will DROP, but it’s quite possible the scale won’t move, or might not move much week after week, or could even go UP! Girlfriends, It does not mean your body is getting BIGGER (if you’re a male & mostly just making muscle gains & not needing to lose much fat, an increase on the scale probably does mean you are building bigger, in a way). Disregard the scale’s every little movement.

 

Do your best & don’t give up.
