She smiles and chats with gym acquaintances before hitting the treadmill for a quick warm-up. She squats. She pushes a sled. She stretches. She leaves. I see her in the gym every day. Sarah isn’t getting any thinner. As a matter of fact, Sarah appears to be gaining weight – and not the good kind. The story that I don’t know about Sarah is that she isn’t happy; she’s high strung, to say the least.

She hates working out, but how is she going to lose that weight if she doesn’t get to the gym? She’s read all the fitness blogs, and they tell her that squats will build a booty and blast fat. So why is Sarah’s ass getting softer while her belt continues to tighten? Learn more: http://1b.io/iM
