About Fitness Knowledge & Myth Busting

People often ask me why their scale weight isn't dropping despite doing cardio every day. The truth is simple: fat loss isn't about punishing yourself with hours of running, it's about a 70% focus on your diet and 30% on strength training. If you aren't seeing numbers change, we need to look at your sleep, stress levels, and protein intake, not just add more exercise.
