Why the Scale is the WORST Way to Track Your Fitness Progress (& what metrics actually matter) | PD Fit Bits

If YOU'RE ready to make real, sustainable change in your life, jump on a free call with us - https://physiquedevelopment.typeform.com/to/ToP9TYLEThe scale might be the most common way to measure progress, but it's often the most misleading. In this episode, Coach Lexi breaks down one of the biggest mistakes she sees women make: giving the scale far too much power over how they feel about their progress.She explains the many factors that can influence your weight from day to day, why your "ideal weight" doesn't necessarily match your ideal physique, and the importance of looking at multiple indicators of progress instead of relying on a single number.Because real progress is about more than what the scale says—it's about how you look, feel, perform, and show up in your life.As always, it is our goal not only to supply you, the listener, with valuable insights on the topics or questions but also to plant some seeds for further research and thought.
