Summary

Randa sits down with Dietician April Dirteater of ADD Nutrition to discuss: Weight Lifting is More Important for Fat Loss & Sustainable Goals vs Continuous Calorie Deficit & More Cardio. You can work with April in the PowHer.fit 12 Week Advanced Nutrition 1.0 Course Here: https://members.powher.fit/user_catalog_class/show/22657 Explain calorie deficit, maintenance and surplus. Explain BMR and how to increase it. But I thought a calorie deficit was the only way to lose fat? So why can’t I just decrease my calories? So that means adding in cardio would help me be in a calorie deficit, right? Why exercise calories burned really shouldn’t matter. How does lifting weights aid in fat loss and become even more beneficial than just a continuous calorie deficit in the long term? -Break down what weight lifting does -Break down how weight lifting needs fuel -Break down the benefits of having muscle, especially as we age -Reiterate that there’s no certain age where you can or cannot lift weights What happens to the muscle I’ve built when I go into a calorie deficit? But if I’m lifting, shouldn’t I be adding in more cardio for better results? How to trust yourself to not always be dieting? But won’t I gain fat if I start eating more? *Red flag discussion on always thinking more cardio needs to be added in to a strength training regiment*

0:52.0
