Transform With Tabs Personal Training

There is a lot of BS there out in the fitness industry, let’s unpack a few of the most common myths which the opposite is actually true

💪 “Lifting weights makes women bulky.” unless you are a genetic gift from god - lifting weights isn’t going to make you big and bulky. Lift makes builds muscle, and muscle mass takes up less space than body fat does. So, if you build muscle and lose body fat over time, your body composition changes dramatically and you will appear smaller.

🏃‍♂️ “You can’t lose body fat without doing any cardio.” - not true, the most important factors for losing body fat comes down to being in a deficit of calories which means you consume LESS energy then you burn throughout the day, which causes the body to tap into excess body fat stores. Yes, cardio burns calories and living an active lifestyle is important, but you do not have to do copious amounts of HIIT cardio or running daily to lose body fat. This may be causing you to overtrain, which is not a conducive state to preserving and building lean muscle.

🥵 “You should be sweating during a work-out in order for it to be building muscle or burning body fat.” - this is a really crappy way of measuring the success or efficiency of a training session. An effective work-out is one that is programmed specifically to you and your goals and designed so that you progress consistently over-time. Instead measure the effective based on your strength levels improving.

So here’s the rule of thumb, if you’re following something whether it be a training protocol or diet from the internet and it just doesn’t feel right - it’s probably not
