In this blog, you’ll discover 7 proven strategies to speed up fat loss. Plus, how our team can help you put them into action.

1. Lift Weights to Burn More Fat (Even While You Sleep)

Cardio’s great, but lifting weights builds muscle—and muscle burns more calories at rest. Win-win.

“Strength training is the most effective way to change your body composition.” – Dr. Brad Schoenfeld, PhD in Exercise Science

Tip: Join a strength-focused group class or schedule a personal training session to get started.

📊 Stat: Just 10 weeks of resistance training can increase lean mass by up to 3 lbs and reduce fat mass significantly (Journal of Obesity).

2. Eat More Protein (Yes, More)

Protein isn’t just for bodybuilders. It boosts metabolism, keeps you full, and preserves muscle while losing weight.

“Protein is the king of weight loss nutrients.” – Kris Gunnars, Healthline

Tip: Grab a high-protein shake from our smoothie bar post-workout to recover and refuel.

3. Sleep More to Weigh Less

Less sleep = more hunger + slower metabolism. Your body needs recovery just as much as it needs the gym.

“Sleep is that golden chain that ties health and our bodies together.” – Thomas Dekker

Tip: Aim for 7–9 hours per night. Bonus: post-sauna naps hit different.

📊 Stat: Poor sleep can increase cravings and lead to a 55% higher risk of obesity (Harvard Health).

4. Track Your Progress (Not Just the Scale)

Weight can fluctuate—what matters more is fat loss, energy, and how your clothes fit.

Tip: Use photos, strength benchmarks, or body scans to measure wins beyond the number.

5. Don’t Fear Carbs—Time Them Right

Carbs aren’t evil. Use them strategically, especially around workouts to fuel and recover.

Tip: Eat complex carbs (like oats or sweet potatoes) 60–90 minutes before training for peak performance.

6. Drink More Water, Not More Hype

Dehydration slows metabolism, zaps energy, and often gets mistaken for hunger.

Tip: Start your day with 16oz of water—before your coffee. It wakes up your metabolism.

7. Get Support—Because Willpower Isn’t a Plan

The biggest difference-maker? Accountability. Trainers, group classes, or a gym buddy can help you stay consistent when motivation dips.

“You don’t have to do it alone—and you’re not supposed to.” – Jillian Michaels
