If you're working out 5 days a week and don't have the physique you're after, you need to do different work outs. If you're trying to slim down, lifting weights 5 days a week and cramming protein powder is the wrong workout
A lot of people don't want to face that what needs to change is diet.
So true. There's also just a ton of bad info we all grow up with telling us that exercising for fat loss is viable, ya know? Hell, even the cardio machines (AKA the first place at the gym most new folks go when they wanna make a change) has settings for "fat burn". Which isn't...wrong, I guess, but it's super misleading, if you don't already know whassup.
Plenty of denial going around (my own included at times 😅) but dang, just getting solid info is a minefield.
