FAT LOSS
How does a goal of FAT LOSS differ from other types of training?
Fat loss is a specific branch of strength and conditioning that requires a lot of attention to different elements of an exercise program and which energy systems your body's fuel comes from. Efficient fat loss is not the same as simply "burning calories."
​
Can't I just make sure that I "burn more" than I consume?
​
​While a general approach is making sure that we use more calories during our workouts than we consume, that is not the only concern when designing a program to target fat loss. Doing the wrong exercises won't hurt you or increase your risk of injury but will make the fat loss process very inefficient. For this reason, a lot of clients tend to struggle achieving the results they want.
