Hot take: for most of y’all, sacrificing 45 min of sleep to strength train 3x a week is worth it.

Start with bands/dumbbells @ home
Then take your talents to a gym nearby
Build out that home gym you dream of

Only you can take care of you 👀 ✨🙏🏼💖

Let me de-influence you from caring so much about how calories you “burned”🙌🏼💁🏻‍♀️💅🏻

1. Wearable tech (watches, oura ring, etc) is wildly inaccurate. If you’re trying to hit a goal number, the margin of error is high. It’s a guess, at best.

2. Focusing on calories burned is often in opposition to building strength & muscle mass, if not supported appropriately by food intake.

3. Building muscle mass is a better way to build your metabolism & burn more energy throughout the day and at rest, compared to burning calories doing cardio.

4. Your body and metabolism adapt to energy expenditure and intake. If you’re dieting and spending a lot of time doing cardio, and not building muscle, you’re going to be spinning your wheels after a handful of weeks.

This is NOT cardio slander, we need to include cardiovascular exercise for a variety of reasons. The message here, is that focusing on a number is going to lead you down a path of disappointment.

TLDR; building muscle mass is a more effective use of your time for long term metabolic health & body composition. Yes there is more nuance that a caption can’t convey.

Monthly reminder not to compare your body to pro athletes or fitness girls on Reta + testosterone (no shade if you choose that life, we’re just playing in different leagues). 😤💖💪🏼

Waiting for all the type A competitive athletes to realize they can lift 3-4 days/week for 45 min and do a little cardio & still be fit and athletic, have more energy & live fuller lives ✨😤💅🏻
