The problem with NOT lifting weights

Yes, you can lose weight without working out.

The problem is that without resistance training, you’ll lose muscle right along with the fat, and muscle is what keeps your metabolism strong.

Here’s the solution:
✅ Dial in your nutrition to create a healthy calorie deficit (think protein, fiber, and healthy fats).
✅ Add resistance training 2–4x per week to preserve and build muscle.
✅ Track progress with body composition, not just the scale,because losing muscle is not the win you think it is.

Diet gets the fat off. Muscle keeps it off. Pair them together, and you’ll have results that last.
