from Redefining Strength Podcast · host Cori Lefkowith

If your goal is fat loss, should you be doing cardio, lifting weights, or Pilates?The answer is not as simple as picking one and ditching the others.In this video, I’m breaking down the real fat loss training hierarchy: what to prioritize first, why weight training is the foundation, where cardio actually fits, why walking is more powerful than most people realize, and how Pilates or activation work can make your strength training even more effective.We’ll talk about why steady-state cardio often gets overused, why sprint intervals can support fat loss and muscle preservation, how walking helps with recovery and daily calorie burn, and why Pilates is not just “light toning” work.Because the real question isn’t “cardio vs weights vs Pilates.”It’s: are you using each one for the right job?If you’ve been working hard but still feel stuck, this video will help you understand how to combine training methods in a way that supports fat loss, muscle building, recovery, and long-term results.Watch next to learn how to set up your strength training so it actually builds muscle and changes your body composition.
