We CAN do something about that - and that is to train in a way that improves our body composition. Body composition means how much fat and muscle you have in your body relative to one another. As a rule, the more muscle  relative to fat you have, the better (of course, going to extremes is not good!)In this episode, I review how I managed significant body recomposition in 1 year and share tips on how you can do the same. I share: My results - how much body weight, fat and visceral fat I lostHow I achieved body recomposition with a combination of weight training and a 10-week calorie deficitHow you can do it too - I share my tips. You'll learn: What is visceral fat, why you should care, and how weight training helps reduce itHow to minimize loss of muscle when dietingHow to take progress picturesMy strategy for body recomposition.Enjoy the episode!x Lynn#buildmusclelosefat #bodyrecomposition #visceralfat #reducevisceralfat #startliftingweights #caloriedeficit #diettips #gettoned #toneup #fitafter40 #fitafter50 #fitnesstips #strongafter50 #onlinefitnesscoach #menopausecoach Support the Show.MAY SPECIALS!! 💫NEW: If you've been lifting and want an effective program to follow, check out my group membership >> (special offer for early joiners!) 40% off my Learn to Lift programs >> Ready to start lifting weights?
