5 things I did not do to drop 40lbs for my wedding 1. Cut out carbs. Rather than “cutting out” anything, I focused on consuming more protein and adding in more whole foods. Carbs are essential and absolutely needed to fuel my workouts. 2. Endless cardio. Instead, I focused on increasing my overall daily movement by increasing my step count. 10k steps a day was my sweet spot. I used cardio strategically, but that isn’t what transformed my body. 3. Ab circuits. Instead, I focused on lifting heavy, which works my core more effectively than “ab burning” circuits. 4. Random workouts. Random workouts will get you random results. I followed a structured program that was intentional for muscle growth so that I could challenge each muscle group appropriately and give my body a reason to change. 5. A crazy amount of supplements. Supplements won’t fix a broken diet. Supplements are made to supplement what you are consuming. Fix your diet first, or the supplements won’t really do much for you.
