Ep. #931: Everything You Need to Know About Strength Training for Fat Loss

Most people think cardio is the best type of exercise for losing weight. While it’s true that cardio can help you lose fat and that you should do cardio for its health benefits, strength training is often unfairly criticized as ineffective when it comes to losing weight.

This podcast covers everything you need to know about using strength training effectively for losing fat as quickly as possible.
