Yes, eating in a calorie deficit can help you lose weight, but without strength training, you’re likely to lose muscle too and end up feeling “skinny fat.” We talk about how resistance training protects your muscle, strengthens your bones, and completely changes your body composition as you age. I also share how to combine a whole food, plant-based diet with the right training approach, plus a free resource to help you get started the right way.
