Better Results Come in Inches Not Pounds

If you are weighing yourself everyday, and the scale isn't budging after weeks of hard work, but your clothes are fitting looser, what are you doing wrong?

What you are doing wrong is weighing yourself. Stay away from the scale. This is the most inaccurate form of measurement for weight there is. All the scale tells you is how much gravity is pulling on your body at the given time you step on the scale.

It does not factor in muscle, bone, blood, what you just ate, other bodily fluids etc.

What you need to be focusing on is your body composition, definition and muscle tone. Muscle does not weigh more than fat. A pound of muscle weighs the same as a pound of fat. Muscle does, however, takes up less space than fat.

Your body-fat percentage is a more accurate assessment of your weight-loss progress and should be monitored every few weeks not on a daily, or even weekly basis.

To grow muscle you need to increase the weight and decrease the reps (8 - 10), and to tighten and tone you need to decrease the weights (but keep it challenging not wimpy) and increase the reps (15 - 25).

You need both types of training for overall muscular development.
