The question was: Weights first or cardio first? Trevor replied with this... "You definitely want to prioritize weight training first. I would definitely say weights before cardio.

You can recover a little bit and then you could go i...

"That indicates is that this isn't a breakthrough for you as long as it's similar to something you already have. This is not transformational space. You aren't going to actually experience something different as long as you can fit it in to that thing that you're already familiar with, then know that nothing has changed. That is why I think it's important to look at the distinction, because when p...

Yo Yo Dieting - Lose weight - Gain Weight - Lose Weight - Gain Weight.. That dysfunctional pattern you keep finding yourself repeating. "Patterns start looking for them. It's easy, it's easy to do.

"Different calorie sources can have vastly different effects on hunger, hormones, energy expenditure and brain regions that control your food intake. So even though calories are important, counting them or being consciously aware of them is not at all necessary to lose weight.

"To lose fat, you need to have both a caloric deficit and hormonal balance. Most people are always just thinking one sided....they think they need to just reduce calories only or they learn toward exercising more and eating less, which will work for a short time but not for long. Most people don't know what they don't know so there are many blind spots around what they really need to do in order t...
