When restricting calories during a fat loss phase, it is important to consider that your body may experience some temporary changes during the adjustment. It also depends on the amount of calories that are reduced. Normally 200-500 calories are the safest but if you are already eating below your body’s need to conduct regular bodily processes, that’s where things can go downhill.... https://myofiberblog.wordpress.com//common-fat-loss-chall/

Happy New Year Everyone! We are so excited to start our new miniseries where we will be debunking fitness myths. There is so much information out there that it can be hard to differentiate between fact and myth. This miniseries will hopefully answer some questions you may have! Myth #1: You can target fat burn False. The truth is you cannot target certain body areas to burn fat. When you exercise you lose body weight and burn fat from your entire body you can’t control what part of your body burns the most fat. #debunk #mythsandfacts #factvsmyth #fitnessmyths #newyear2021 #myofiber https://instagr.am/p/CKjawLbATBA/

Excellent review by asyeh sadardini, via Google He analyzed every facet of my workout and took time to understand my goals ( rehab from ACL and getting back into soccer) Then he combined his kinesiology background with his passion for personal training to explain me all the details behind the training regiment he prescribed. Then he came to the fitness equipment store just to help me pick the right equipment for my home gym. And he did this on his own spare time. I don't... know anyone that will go that far for you. Keep it up! See more

There’s a lot of fitness advice out there that won’t help you meet your goals and could actually do more harm than good. Here 3 common workout myths that you might have encountered. Myth #1: To lose my love handles, sit-ups is the only way to shape my belly fat. Truth: You cannot lose specific parts of the body fat through one specific exercise. You can only lose body fat by keeping the calorie expenditure lower than the calorie in. With that said, working out to target the w...hole body with the help of nutrition, you can lose your desired weight in a specific time. Myth #2: Weight-lifting turns fat into muscle Truth: This statement is physiologically impossible. Fat and muscle are two different tissues. What weight training really does is build up the muscle tissue through breaking down and re-building process under the fat tissue. In order to reveal the muscle under the fat, the best way is to reduce fat so that the muscle will reveal themselves. Weightlifting simply do not turn fat into muscle! Myth #3: The best time to run for fat loss is in the morning with empty stomach Truth: Not really. Although this might make sense because you might think if the first thing that body encounters is calorie-burning exercise, since there is no food stored in our stomach, the body must use the fat in our body to burn calories. Our metabolism continually adjusts its use of fat and carbohydrates as a fuel on a variety of factors. It is scientifically almost impossible to keep track of how much fat is being used and how much carbohydrates are being used in our body. The best way for a fat loss is setting a time to work out or exercise that allows you to keep at it, until it becomes a habit. There is no specific time that would get you faster result for fat loss. There you have it. At myofiber, we help you achieve these kinds of fitness goals as long as when YOU are ready to be challenged.
