I’m one of the lucky ones. No big weight gains after high school. Same with college. Even after five kids, I got a free pass and never really struggled.
Then I started noticing the “shift”. I wasn’t gaining weight, but my body composition was shifting from lean and toned to skinny fat. More and more muscle was slowly fading away. Worse than that, small amounts of fat were filling in the places previously occupied by muscle. Nothing too noticeable, but I wanted my lean, toned body back
I tried what I thought would work. Some weight lifting. Some mountain biking for cardio. Nothing helped. I figured it was a lost cause and I chalked up my failure to age. That’s what happens when you get older, right? If you’re middle aged like me, maybe you’ve had the same thoughts.
Despite my daily cardio workouts and weight lifting, I couldn’t get that toned look back in my arms, shoulders, hips and thighs. It wasn’t until I started using Fittur I discovered the solution. More protein. That’s all it was.
