Drop the Scale for Good!

You all have heard the saying ‘Muscle weighs more than Fat’, but what does that really mean? Look at the image provided: 5lbs of fat is nearly 3x as large as 5lbs of muscle. The female depicted in the picture began a strength training routine, and gained nearly 10lbs. She gained muscle while losing pounds of fat, and she looks much more fit in the after picture. Muscle is very lean. Forget about the number on the scale! It will drive you crazy and deplete your motivation. Pay attention to how you feel and how great you look- this is all that matters.
