Caption: Common mistakes people make when trying to lose weight. If you are aiming to lose weight, it is important to do it mindfully and healthily and to avoid mistakes such as fad diets and over-exercising. According to Amanda Place, personal trainer, health coach and founder of Sculptrition, here are some of the common weight-loss misconceptions that could be keeping you from hitting your goals. Crash diets. One of the most common mistakes people make when trying to lose weight is relying on unsustainable crash diets. ”While these methods may yield rapid results initially, they are unsustainable in the long run," Amanda warns. Choice of exercise. Another common mistake is overemphasising cardiovascular exercise. ”While cardio workouts are beneficial for burning calories, strength training plays more of a crucial role in weight loss.” Consistency. A lack of consistency can demotivate you and slow your progress down. ”Set realistic goals, create a routine, and stay committed to your plan. Remember, progress takes time, and small, consistent steps yield better results than sporadic, intense efforts.” Sleep and stress management. A lack of sleep and increased stress can impact your progress significantly as your hormones can become unbalanced. ”Prioritize good quality sleep and incorporate stress-management techniques such as meditation, yoga, or deep breathing exercises to support your weight loss journey.” The health expert concludes: "Losing weight requires a holistic approach that encompasses proper nutrition, regular exercise, and healthy lifestyle habits.” THIS VIDEO MUST NOT BE EDITED FOR LENGTH TO COMBINE WITH OTHER CONTENT
