Losing weight is easy, right? You just need to start increasing the number of workouts you do each day and start eating a bit less. That’s it, isn’t it? Well, in actual fact, it might not be as simple as that. There are a lot of mistakes that some people make without even realizing it, and these mistakes could lead to them actually adding on a few extra pounds. Depending on the mistake, that extra weight gain could even occur if you have increased your workouts and decreased your food intake.
Thankfully, it can be very easy to spot these mistakes and make the necessary changes to your lifestyle that are needed to get in better shape. Here are some of the most common mistakes when trying to lose weight – make sure you don’t make them yourself!
Well I want to lose weight, don’t know how…
Haha! Nice to meet you Tanya!
Knowing how to lose weight is my job ;) I don´t know how to do a lot of other things :D
2-3 cardio sessions per week, would be a great start.
Eat enough protein (I have posted about it, because it´s a different amount for each person), or you´ll lose muscle too, and you don´t want this happens.
You could add some extra weight training sessions per week, if you think you need them ;)
Big hugs,
David
Thank you for sharing my dear !
My plesure, sunshine!! :D
Nice post, man. I’ll have to watch myself and that cardio? Two to three sessions a week?! I’d have to knock out four or five! Chuckle. 👍😁
Thanks Jim!
I think you don’t have to worry about that. I guess you eat like a pro and you are not on a restricted calorie diet 😂
You don’t ride almost every day because you want to lose weight, you love to ride your bike and share your passion with your friends and family 👌🎉
But tell me if I’m wrong, you ride a lot but you don’t lose weight every week, do you? 🤔😉
I don’t lose much, I maintain. I can if I want but I do eat a lot for my wife… she doesn’t like me skinny. But you’re right. I don’t ride to lose weight. I ride because I love riding. Thanks, brother. Fantastic point you made. 😎
Thank you 😁
You are married to a wise woman, she likes you healthy, not skinny 💪
And you can enjoy both, riding and eating… Who says we can’t have it all in this life?? 🤣
Big hug, my friend!
Thanks, brother.
Hard to say with the topic. So many factors. Age. Hormones. Etc.
Yeah, too many factors, indeed. That´s why people should rely on personal trainers to meet their fitness goals safely and effectively :D
I sure have made some mistakes over the years :P I never ate fiber, will sure do something about that from now on :)

Nice
Thank you :)
Very helpful article!
Thank you :)
Muy bueno!!!! Sobre todo el apartado en que dices que subestimamos el ejercicio que hacemos con las calorías que gastamos. Para lo cansado que acabas no se gastan tantas calorías. Yo la verdad es que no las cuento. Procuro comer alimentos nutritivos tengan las calorías que tengan y no comer procesados y sobre todo, no comer procesados light! Qué también lo mencionas!!! Lo dicho, muy bueno el post! Gracias 🙂
Muchas gracias! Estoy encantadísimo que te haya gustado 😊 Tengo un post pendiente desde hace tiempo sobre la cantidad de calorías que consume cada actividad. Ahora que me lo has recordado, lo publicaré pronto 😁👏
Además, solemos pensar que las calorías que quemamos provienen todas de la grasa de la que nos queremos deshacer, y no es cierto 😅
Yo tampoco como alimentos procesados, light, zero… y me va muy bien. Y me gusta mucho el dulce, pero cuando de verdad me apetece, me pongo en plan pastelero, con las recetas de toda la vida de mi abuela y así sé lo que realmente lleva el bizcocho, la tarta, o lo que sea 😂
Un abrazo!!!
