@olisjostrom: Stop Doing Cardio for Fat Loss (Do This Instead) Most people think fat loss means one thing: More cardio. Running longer. Burning more calories. Spending hours on the treadmill. But that approach creates three big problems. 1. Metabolic Adaptation The more cardio you do, the more your body adapts. Your metabolism slows down and you have to keep doing more and more just to get the same result. 2. Muscle Loss Long cardio sessions don’t just burn fat. They also break down muscle. And the less muscle you have, the slower your metabolism becomes. 3. It’s Not Sustainable Let’s be honest. Most people don’t want to do hours of cardio every week. And if it’s not sustainable, it’s not a long-term solution. A much better approach is simple. Lift weights to build muscle. Eat real whole foods and remove ultra processed foods. Make sure you’re getting enough protein. Do that consistently and fat loss becomes much easier.
