Summary

Are you frustrated with the results that you are seeing from your workouts? Because of this, do you think you need to spend more time pumping your dumbbells or that you need to incorporate more cardio into your routine to see the results you actually want to see?
 
Guess what, sister?! You don't have to workout more to see better results. In fact, working out more could cause you to see reverse effects. There are things outside of your workout that you can do that all factor into the results you see from the efforts you're putting into your workouts. And, without these 7 things, you're going to struggle to see the results you really want to see. 
 
In this episode of Embrace Your Real, I'm going to share what you can do to make your workouts more effective without spending more time working out. In fact, these 7 things have absolutely nothing to do with your workouts but will have huge effects on the results you see.
 
What I discussed:
 
  1. Eat enough protein.
 
  1. Eat enough food. 
 
  1. Don't go over on your macros consistently. 
 
  1. Honor your body with movement outside your workouts. 
 
  1. Take rest days/rest weeks
 
  1. Get enough sleep
 
  1. Drink more water
