ADVICE

Boost Fat Loss With Daily Movement

  • Increase your daily non-exercise movement (NEAT) like walking and fidgeting to significantly raise calorie burn.
  • Track steps and add short walks; small daily activity adds up more than extra gym sessions.
ADVICE

Train Stability, Not Just Heavy Lifts

  • Add stabilizing single-leg and isometric holds to your routine to recruit small stabilizer muscles and prevent injury.
  • Prioritize mobility, yoga and varied movement over constant heavy bodybuilding to lengthen and protect the body.
