Nashville Personal Trainer The Ultimate Mistake

Share
Hey Rickey here- hope you're off to a killer start of the week, working your
hearts out.
 
Working out will get you lean, but is that enough?
 
There are a lot of people who've been training religiously for their spring/summer body.
 
They put in a ton of effort when they train and always keep one eye on their heart rate monitor to make sure that they're in the 'zone'.
 
Then after a few weeks, they wake up one morning, slog their way through the dark and into the bathroom for their ritual leak, strip down to their birthday suit, and step on the scale in hopes of seeing that they're close to their high school weight only to find out that it's only budged 1-2 pounds.
 
What gives? All that blood, sweat and tears you put in in the gym only to get mediocre results.
 
You've been following what you've heard will work- “build muscle to burn fat.
 
Well, here's some news for you: doing exercise ONLY does not have a massive impact on your weight/fat loss, at least not in terms of the quantity lost.
 
Adding some muscle to your body doesn't really have the impact on your body fat percentage that you might hope. Every 5 pounds of true muscle gained reduces body fat percent by about 0.4%.
 
Ain't nobody got time for that!
 
Fat can be lost much faster than muscle can be gained.
 
And so you need to diet.
 
You know my recommendations in general- cut those carbs extra low, crank up your protein, and drop some calories.
 
But everyone already knows that diet is important.
 
But I'm sending you this because as you're starting to get more serious about your results, your first inclination may be to crank in more workout routines to burn some more fat off.
 
If you're dieting (cutting calories and what not), then the recovery of the body is going to be reduced as well.
 
So trying to train even more frequently while dieting makes no sense. The results won't happen like you fantasize they will.
 
Too much training and too few calories is a bad thing.
 
I want the best for you so here's 2 options for you to do instead.
 
CHOICE 1: do 2-3 short, intense training sessions per week (to maintain muscle mass and shape the body) while allowing your dieting to take care of the fat loss. This will work.
 
CHOICE 2: do 2-3 short, intense training sessions with a cardio day and use smaller caloric deficits.
 
This will work as well.
 
But what won't work is working yourself out to death in hopes of losing fat. You won't be doing anything by wasting energy that could be spent somewhere else, making your life happier.
 
Thanks for reading. I appreciate you!
