Should You Lift Weights If You Want to Lose Weight?

How to lose excess weight? But do you know that some of your favorite weight lifting exercises may be causing you to gain pounds? This added weight isn’t fat; it’s muscle mass, which is still a healthier alternative to carrying around excess fat. But if you’re looking to lose weight, this extra gain is no good.
It’s important to note that your weight depends on more than just your workouts. When planning your workout routine, it’s important to understand how your diet comes into play. The food you eat is just as important as the exercises you’re doing! Maybe even more so.

SUMMARY:
- People who try to build muscle mass eat. A lot. But they don’t eat junk like burgers and fries. They eat lean protein, whole grains, and vegetables.
- Squats are great at strengthening the buttocks and thigh muscles. But when you add a barbell with heavy weights to the mix, that lower part of your body will start looking larger in no time.
- Lots of people turn to weight-assisted machines to strengthen the outer and inner thighs. Using heavy weights, this machine helps you bulk up your thighs, which will add extra pounds.
- Both men and women sit at weight machines that help strengthen their back muscles. However, many women notice that they become a bit bulkier and lose that so-called “feminine shape” when they do this exercise regularly.
- Push-ups can be a great way to bulk up your arms and shoulders.
- Looking to flatten that tummy? Doing tilts without weights about once a week ought to do the trick.
- If you do squats without weights, you can really lean out those same muscles in your butt and upper legs.
- Lunges are great for your hips and thighs, but they don’t cause them to swell in size like other weight-assisted machines do.
- Planking is an excellent strength-building exercise for your core muscles. While they look similar to a push-up, they’re not as hard on your arm muscles.
