one trainer says train heavey the other one says no train light high reps, the other do only body weight, a lot of trainers don't know and also don't follow the program themselves that's why it's so difficult to get the right advice
I think its mainly what works for you, nothing in the fitness field is universal for every so different body type out there. Everyone is different everyone metabolizes differently. But do lift heavy, tear the muscles and repeat😂
Back in October I was working with my trainer and she had me lift more than I normally do and as a result I sprang my rotator cuff... I now have a new trainer who is incorporating my physical therapy homework into my workouts
Fantastic guidance! So many of my friends over 50 are eating too few calories and wondering why their weight loss stalls. They can't believe the amount of food that I eat. More protein (from all sources), proper portions, proper macros and consistency are so important to seeing results. You can't out train a bad diet, treat your body like a temple and it will serve you well.
Im 67,have minneres disease.broken over last 4 years.....my thigh,hip twice,pelvis,knee all ribs and puncutured lung. Started gym 5 weeks ago. Love it. Sore but im not gona stop. See a difference already.
Yes, great advice! I did only 1 workout with weights, walk every day and noticed an increase in hunger. I am reminded why I need more quality protein. Thanks
Do you advice doing full body workout every other day and stretches exercises on the rest days or doing upper body one day and lower body next day and stretching every day with no rest day from weight lifting/ functional training. I do a short functional training-30 minutes which keeps me moving without stressing my body and mind. Thank you!
I started w 7 lbs weight, now im doing like 25-50 lbs depending on the move 😂 it took me 6 years. I don’t compare w others, there r always ppl stronger n better than u but u can only focus on urself.
I have a caffeine addiction when you talked about being in flight or fight and not building muscle that hit home. I always felt that when I over due it on coffee I don’t build muscle properly…. Even muscle loss. Switching to one cup of green tea a day hope it helps🙌
I’m a mom 48 new completely NEW to body recomposition. I’ve never had over weight issues until recently. Currently Im 151 lbs at 5’3 but after seeing how out of shape i was i was so disappointed. I realize I have a very long journey to go. But need so much guidance. What exercises and foods are best to lose fat and gain muscle at the same time. Again I’m completely new to this. However due to being a single mom a gym membership is not an option at the time. What home exercises can I do? Thanks in advance
Hey Shirley! I’m glad you found our channel. Good news is that you can lose a lot of the fat from proper nutrition! Check out our nutrition playlists on our main channel page and watch those videos. Here are a few helpful videos: pulse.ly/z3t7la8hb7
How's your fitness journey going. I'm also 150 lbs and 5 3. From the UK. Weight training at home will really help you. This guy has some great videos on simple but effective strength training exercises. You can't go wrong with his advise. All free of charge, bless him. I've found protein is the key. And lots of veg. I still have healthy carbs, such as jacket potatoes. I've cut out the snacks as I really want to lose 15 to 20 lbs. It's not easy but don't give up.
Hey Aimee, thanks for writing in and great question! We normally recommend for our members to wait 2-3 hours after eating a meal to begin their lifting session. Best of luck and thanks for watching! -The FMP Team
Thanks for informative weight. I am female, 57 im only 52 kilos and eat very healthy but not getting much weight gain. Im always on the go plus walking my dogs. Should i eat much before i go to gym in the morning. I haven't ever counted calories only i make sure i take roughly 30g protein 3 times daily. Ive recently started taking amino acids. Any advice appreciated thank you 🙏
Hey Julie, thanks for writing in and great question! If you'd like to work on gaining a little weight, you will first need to determine your daily caloric needs. I will link to a calculator below that can help and from there, we recommend adding on an additional 250-400cal/day on days you go to the gym (only). You will have to download or save a copy for yourself but here is the calc: pulse.ly/7b1qlq1hth -The FMP Team
It's very good to be consistent with your exercises so you can focus on getting stronger... yet it's also good to mix things up once in a while. Check this routine out... even if you're not over 40 it's still helpful for you: ruclips.net/video/oAHwQJLFy6w/видео.html
Do I need to eat the additional calories on my rest day? I'm one of those people that has always been trying to lose weight but now I'm ready for muscle gains and I am struggling with the idea of eating more. I understand eating the additional calories on the days I lift but what about my rest/recovery day(s)?

I lifted heaving today and over an hour came home and had a good post workout meal. Rice with fish, fermented vegetables. And taro root soup. I don’t ever plan to give up my type of food for anything. Vietnamese food is generally healthy 😊
My Mom was just diagnosed with osteoporosis at 56. So I'm trying to help her with nutrition. These videos are helpful. But it is hard. She has a job on her feet all day. She doesn't like smoothies no matter how many ways I make it. I even bought a vitamix. I drink them and my health is improving. But I am seeing the struggle here.

What if your exercising but not Hercules lifting? Need to lose weight but also gain muscles and strength. To many calories i wont lose the weight, not enough food and or protein i dont get muscle
Great questions! We firstly recommend losing the excess weight as it's easier to build muscle, the leaner you are. However, doing so with resistance training can help preserve your lean muscle while in a losing phase. This and eating enough quality protein can help. Check out our free jumpstart guide to help get you going: www.fitmotherproject.com/get-free-fmjs/ Best of luck! -The FMP Team
Hey WTH, thanks for writing in and great question! You can absolutely build muscle while doing a low-carb diet. Carbs aren't necessarily the enemy as they simply provide the fastest source of energy for our bodies. However, if doing a more low-carb lifestyle, it's still important to consume adequate protein (at least .8g per pound of bodyweight) while also doing resistance training as your primary mode of exercise. Both can help contribute to muscle development. Thanks for watching! -The FMP Team
If I have a protein shake right after a workout there’s no way I can eat a meal for hours! The shake makes me so full. So what do you do in that case? Skip the shake and just have a high calorie meal?
I’m a peri menopausal 44 year old woman who has started lifting weights. I’ve been following Stacey simms advice (lift heavy as you can for no more than 5 reps 3-5 sets) however there’s no training plan to follow which would be helpful to me as I’m making up my own. Do you have any training plans for 40 + woman? Thanks
Hello sir, I am 40 years old and I am a dancer. I had fit and strong muscle, high stamina but now its been a year, I am loosing muscles day by day and the strength is all gone. My mucles are just loose and have pain in my joints too. I am not able to dance now, my hips are also paining while sleeping. My weight is 46kgs , height 5 feet. I am feeling horrible now. Kindly help and guide me or give me any other options to contact you to get a proper consultation. 🙏

I'm hitting the weight room and I would like to get my wife to join me. I'm not familiar with what women should do. Can she do the same plan as me but at a much lighter weight?
Hi Michelle, thanks for writing in and great question! We recommend you get your post-workout meal consumed within 60min of exercise. Within 30min is better (and right away is most ideal) as your muscles are primed for nutrition at that point. Thanks for watching and happy lifting! -The FMP Team
I’ve been working out pretty well for 2 months, sweating like crazy, feeling strong, I am seeing some ab definition but still have love handles and a little baby belly, I eat well from what I can cause I’m very picky, I don’t eat junk, I try to sleep more, but my weight DOES NOT wanna go down… it went quick from 160 to 151 and not shift from 152 to 150 going up and down… why can’t I lose more weight 😩😩 I’m 42 🤷🏻♀️
This should be personalized, if I ate 50g protein in every meal I would be eating strictly protein and nothing else! You should use your body weight as a guide.

Lift heavy that’s correct answer lol.
I think its mainly what works for you, nothing in the fitness field is universal for every so different body type out there. Everyone is different everyone metabolizes differently. But do lift heavy, tear the muscles and repeat😂
Don't listen to a man, any man ,I mean any man... if YOU are a woman.. search for female trainers.. simple.
Back in October I was working with my trainer and she had me lift more than I normally do and as a result I sprang my rotator cuff... I now have a new trainer who is incorporating my physical therapy homework into my workouts

Wow I never really realized how important more calories are! 😮
For muscle building, it's essential! Our bodies need more fuel & building blocks to create new tissue.
My pitfall is under eating protein. It’s hard to get 135 grams but I know it’s important!

I’m trying to get my cholesterol down so I watch my carbs.
I’ve been working out pretty well for 2 months, sweating like crazy, feeling strong, I am seeing some ab definition but still have love handles and a little baby belly, I eat well from what I can cause I’m very picky, I don’t eat junk, I try to sleep more, but my weight DOES NOT wanna go down… it went quick from 160 to 151 and not shift from 152 to 150 going up and down… why can’t I lose more weight 😩😩 I’m 42 🤷🏻♀️

50g per meal!? Ok yeah I need to eat more
👍
This should be personalized, if I ate 50g protein in every meal I would be eating strictly protein and nothing else! You should use your body weight as a guide.
Is this based on studies done on women or men? We are not little men!!!!!!
Yes but if you are diabetic.... I don't think carbs is the best idea.
It isn’t for anyone
