You're Probably Not Lifting Heavy Enough

In this episode of The Mindset Diet, I’m talking about one of the biggest mistakes I see women making with their workouts: lifting weights that are too light to actually create change.After chatting with women who requested my free 3-day strength training program, I noticed a common pattern. Many women are working out from home, but only have access to very light dumbbells, like 5-pound weights or hand weights. While that can be a fine starting point if you’re brand new to lifting, it usually isn’t enough long-term if your goal is to build muscle, tone up, improve your metabolism, and support fat loss.This episode is a short, off-the-cuff conversation about what it actually takes to send your body a strong enough muscle-building signal and why that matters whether your goal is fat loss, toning, metabolism, bone health, or feeling stronger in your body. Resources & Next StepsIf you’re feeling stuck and want help applying these concepts to your real life, I currently have limited spots open for one-on-one nutrition and fitness coaching.You can apply for a no-pressure nutrition and fitness consult using the link below.
