I know, I know – you want to build muscle, lose fat and undo all damage from years of terrible eating habits and lack of exercise – IN THE NEXT 6 WEEKS, LET’S GO!!

Okay but seriously…
Rates of fat loss and muscle building vary based on a large number of factors including:
-Gender
-Age
-Metabolic health (past diet history / physical fitness)
-Hormones
-Diet
-Training
And are pretty much effected most in that order.
When it comes to fat loss, slower is always better. Not only does that (hopefully) mean you are creating sustainable habits, but it means that you aren’t crash dieting to a point that’s going to rebound you into gaining it all back once you stop.
When it comes to muscle building, slow is your only option.
It takes consistency, proper training and proper nutrition to see optimal increases in muscle, especially as a woman.
Swiperoo to see some of the general ranges so that you can set REALISTIC goals!!
