Want to lose weight? Lift them! 🏋️

Heading to the gym to lose some weight?

If you start with cardio and then lift weights…you’re doing it wrong!

Don’t worry..you’re not alone.

A new study in The Conversation found that weightlifting followed by cardio works better than the opposite because lifting burns all the sugar stored in your muscles and then your body has to start burning fat to get you through the cardio exercises.

So if you cardio then lift (like us!), it’s time to switch it up and feel the burn!
