Weight Loss VS Body Recomposition (Big Difference!)

🤔Weight Loss VS Body Recomposition
When you only focus on losing weight by doing cardio and restricting your calories, you will just become a "smaller" version of how you currently look
But when you improve your body composition by building muscle and dropping fat, you change your entire body shape.
I know that seeing the weight go down on the scale feels good, but it does not paint a complete picture.
I coached several people that did not lose much weight but had a tremendous body transformation. Because they built muscle while losing fat.
And yes, research shows it is possible to build muscle while in a calorie deficit [1].
🔑So stop obsessing over the scale and start taking body measurements!
🔑Stop being a cardio-bunny, and lift some heavy weight!
🔑Stop starving yourself, and fuel your body while controlling portions!

Started it 2 weeks ago and already started seeing results I look and feel better doing body recomp than I felt doing cardio and calorie deficit
