How to Safely and Healthily Lose Weight Fast

Muscle for Life with Mike Matthews

You’re here because you want to lose weight fast, and that’s completely understandable.

Whether you have a lot or a little fat to lose, the sooner it’s over, the better.

You have to be careful what you wish for, though, because if you go about it incorrectly—like most people do—you may just wind up skinny fat.

In other words, if you do what most people do—starve yourself and do a bunch of cardio—you’ll lose weight alright, but you’re probably not going to be happy with what you see in the mirror.

The reason for this is most rapid weight loss protocols are essentially “crash diets” that burn just as much muscle as fat, which ruins your body composition.

The goal, then, isn’t to lose weight as quickly as possible, but to lose fat and not muscle as quickly as possible.

That’s how you get lean, toned, and defined, not skinny, flabby, and weak.

And when that’s the goal, you have to do things very differently. The good news, though, is the better way is also easier than you probably think.

That’s right, once you know what you’re doing, you can not only lose fat (and not muscle) rapidly, but you can do it without suffering. In fact, you can even enjoy the process.

That’s what you’re going to learn in this podcast.
