Day 13: Why You're Working Out but Not Losing Weight

Why are you working out consistently but not losing weight? The answer may have less to do with your workouts than you think.

In today's episode, we're breaking down Exercise Activity Thermogenesis (EAT) and why exercise typically burns fewer calories than most women believe. You'll learn why fitness trackers often overestimate calorie burn, why strength training is more effective than cardio for body recomposition, and how to stop chasing calorie burn and start building a stronger, leaner body.

Today's 3 Targets:

  1. Complete a strength training workout
  2. Ignore calories burned on your fitness tracker
  3. Write down one non-weight-loss reason you exercise
