Safe Weight Loss

It is safe to lose about 2 pounds per week as a part of your exercise program.

At the beginning of your program, you might lose more weight and then level off in later weeks. So, if you want to lose 30 pounds the right way, then expect it to take about 15 weeks.

Your genetic makeup and adherence to your nutrition plan are two factors that could increase/decrease this time frame. What is the right way to exercise? A combination of cardio exercise (2-3 days a week) and resistance training (at least 3 days a week) is a proven effective permanent weight loss tandem.

Resistance training will cause the majority of your weight loss to be fat-mass loss (increasing muscle mass at the same time) and it will also speed up your metabolism. A general full body strength exercise program will keep the weight off permanently.
