If you are not losing body fat or if your efforts have come to a stand still then it's time to consider that your "healthy" eating really isn't working for you. It's time to try something different.

In order to "tone" you have to do two things; One, lose body fat. Two, gain muscle. Light weight will NOT help you gain muscle thus not helping you get "tone".

Do you just wander around the gym and guess what you should do based on how you feel that day? Do you know what types of sets and reps are ideal for muscle increase? Do you know what plan you're following next month? If you cannot answer these questions with absolute certainty then chances are you are just winging it and results could be minimal at best.

Yes, cardio helps you lose fat, but that's short term. Ever notice how when you stop doing cardio, you start gaining fat again? What if you could do less cardio and burn more fat?

When starting a new plan, it can often feel like picking one of a hundred doors. It's a guessing game a crap shoot. Maybe it will work and maybe it will not. Knowing the exact time to change your plan and what is the best phase to change it to, is essential so you never plateau.

Have you set a goal of losing 15 lbs by a certain date to only push the deadline back month after month because you keep "messing up"? Do you get frustrated and quit because you're not seeing results fast enough? People are most successful when they are accountable to someone, and when they can understand what "normal" weight loss is. That's one part of working with an iFitModel Coach.
