💥 Here’s why weight training is your body’s secret calorie burner:
A pound of muscle burns 6–10 calories per day — while a pound of fat burns only about 2.
That may not sound huge, but multiply that by every pound of lean muscle you build… and suddenly, your body becomes a 24/7 fat-burning machine 🔥
When you lift weights:
✅ You boost your metabolism for up to 48 hours after your workout
✅ You reshape your body — tighter, stronger, more defined
✅ You improve insulin sensitivity (aka, your body uses food more efficiently)
Cardio might burn calories during your workout…
But muscle keeps burning calories after.
So if you want lasting change — start strength training.
Train smart, eat to fuel muscle, and let your body do the heavy lifting for you 💪
