These common myths are holding you back from success - learn what’s actually true.
Let’s bust some myths and set the record straight.
1️⃣ Weight Loss Myth: You Need to Eat Less and Move More:
Sounds simple, right?
But oversimplifying weight loss leads to failure.
Calories matter, but extreme restriction slows metabolism, increases hunger, and makes fat loss HARDER.
As @BioLayne says:
"It’s not just about eating less - it’s about eating SMARTER."
2️⃣ Weight Loss Myth: Carbs Make You Fat:
Carbs don’t make you fat - overeating does.
Your body needs carbs for energy, performance & muscle retention.
What REALLY matters:
✅ Calories
✅ Protein intake
✅ Activity level
3️⃣ Weight Loss Myth: You Need to Cut Out All ‘Bad’ Foods:
Labelling foods as "good" or "bad" leads to food guilt & binge cycles.
Fact: You can eat pizza, chocolate, or ice cream and STILL lose fat - as long as you’re in a calorie deficit.
Sustainability beats perfection.
4️⃣ Weight Loss Myth: Fasted Cardio Burns More Fat:
Doing cardio fasted doesn’t mean you’ll burn more fat overall.
What matters:
✅ Total calories burned
✅ Strength training for muscle retention
✅ Staying in a calorie deficit
5️⃣ Weight Loss Myth: You Can ‘Tone’ Without Building Muscle:
There’s no such thing as toning.
To look leaner, you need to:
✅ Build muscle
✅ Lose body fat
Lifting weights won’t make you bulky - only stronger, leaner, and healthier.
Even @BretContreras says:
"Strong is the new sexy."
