[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Man here, I lose weight easier than my wife but there are a few things you need to keep in mind when trying to lose weight.  First, cardio.  That burns a lot of calories.  Second, use weights. Women would use smaller ones (I’ve seen them in Target) and as it gets easy you go to the next level.  Another trick is more reps at the lower weight because muscle burns more calories while resting.  You won’t get to the level of your husband but you can get more than you have now.

Lastly, nutrician information on packaging is....sexist.  Servicing sizes are based on a 2,000 calorie diet which is a man’s calorie intake.  A woman’s is usually 1,500.[/quote]

Yes, thank you! Who do you see strength training and using the free weights at the gym? Deadlifting and squatting? Men. Who are the ones running like hamsters on the treadmills for an hour? Women. Women do themselves a disservice by sabotaging their own weight loss goals by starving and dieting instead of stepping up to train smart.
