No weight loss from workouts? Focus on nutrition instead
If your goal is weight loss and you're not seeing results from exercise, then it's time to focus on your nutrition. Exercise is not a high predictor for weight loss, but there are so many other amazing benefits to exercise like stress relief, muscle growth, and increased cardiac health
Does this sound familiar? You've been sweating it out at the gym, putting in hours of intense exercise, but the scale just won't budge. Despite all your efforts, you're not seeing the weight loss results you desire. It's frustrating, demoralizing even, to put in so much work and not see the numbers go down on the scale. But here's the thing: you've been told that exercise is the key to weight loss, when in reality, it's your nutrition that holds the true power. It's time to shift your focus, prioritize what you put into your body, and finally achieve sustainable weight loss.
