Have you ever felt like you’re putting in the work—hitting the gym, eating clean, and staying consistent—but the results just aren’t showing up? You step on the scale, look in the mirror, and wonder why nothing seems to change. The answer might be simpler than you think: You’re not tracking anything. If you’re serious about your fitness goals, whether it’s losing fat, gaining muscle, or just feeling stronger, tracking your progress is the game-changer you need. It’s not about micromanaging every second of your life—it’s about having a strategy that actually works. In this episode, we’re breaking down why tracking your workouts, nutrition, sleep, and body composition can be your fitness GPS, guiding you to success.
