Strength Training: The Holy Grail of Fat Loss
Episode description
Do you want to know the secret to long lasting fat loss? No, it’s not just dieting. No, it’s not just cardio. No, it's not just strength training. It is a combination of the three and strength training tends to need a bit more focus for most people!
Our guest today is Sarah Currie, MS RDN CDN, a Registered Dietitian, personal trainer and co-owner of Physical Equilibrium, a gym and Pilates studio with locations in Midtown Manhattan and East Hampton. Sarah chats with us on how to lose weight properly, and permanently. But she dislikes the word weight loss and prefers body composition because sometimes the scale does not accurately reflect progress. She encourages that you truly can change the way you look with a tailored workout and nutrition plan, but this takes time and patience.

Her specialty and passion is helping clients get strong and lean by combining proper strength training and nutrition strategies.
