409. 5 Things To Avoid Muscle Loss When Trying To Lose Weight

from Hot, Healthy, Never Hungry · host Lauren Hubert MS, Registered Dietitian

Losing fat is great... but not if you're also losing muscle in the process. One of the biggest and most avoidable mistakes you can make during a fat loss phase is losing muscle along with body fat. Muscle is your body's metabolic engine. The more muscle you maintain, the better positioned you are to keep your metabolism strong, support healthy blood sugar levels, and achieve the lean, toned look so many women are after. In today's episode, I'm sharing five things I want you to focus on if your goal is to lose body fat while maintaining, or even building, muscle. We'll cover the biggest mistakes that can lead to unnecessary muscle loss, along with the simple habits that will help you preserve muscle while continuing to make fat loss progress. If your goal is to improve your body composition instead of simply seeing a lower number on the scale, this episode is for you.
