This is good. Follow these 6 steps starting TODAY & you will be “toned” for the summer baby! 👙 Repost @soheefit ・・・ Two of the most common mistakes I see women making when they say they want to “tone” is 1) they overdo the cardio while neglecting strength training, and 2) they don’t consume enough protein. While there’s absolutely nothing inherently wrong with cardio, prioritizing strength training while implementing progressive overload (doing more over time) is what will yield the body composition changes that you want. Lifting will do you a world of good! • Coupled with moderating total calories to make sure you’re consuming the right amount of food (i.e. be in a deficit if need to lean out, or be at maintenance or in a slight surplus if you need to build), consuming enough protein will help build muscle and shed fat, thus leading to the “toned” look (not to mention, it can help with satiety and therefore increase dietary adherence). • Lastly, change takes time! Don’t expect a drastic transformation in one week or even one month. Many of the people with the physiques others covet took years and years of dedicated workouts and proper nutrition. • Stay consistent, focus on the process, and take things one meal and one workout at a time. #howtotone #fatloss (at Las Vegas, Nevada)
