Most women have been told for years that cardio is the answer for fat loss. Hours on the treadmill, sweating buckets, and chasing calories burned. But is that really the best way to achieve lasting results?

In this episode of Real Women Real Results, Jamie sits down with Coach Corey, a fitness professional with nearly 30 years of experience, to uncover the truth about cardio and strength training. Together they explore where these myths came from, what actually works for fat loss, and what really is the best and game changer for women of all ages wanting to lose fat.

In this episode, you’ll learn:

• Why cardio became the go-to method for women’s fitness
• The difference between burning fat and losing fat
• What happens when you only do cardio (and the results you miss out on)
• How strength training shapes your body and boosts long term success
• The role of protein, calories, and sleep in fat loss
• Why women do not need to fear “getting bulky” from lifting weights
• How cardio and weights work together for overall health

This episode is for you if:

• You’ve tried losing weight by only doing cardio and feel stuck
• You are confused about whether cardio or strength training is “better”
• You want to finally understand the science behind fat loss
• You want results that last, not just short-term calorie burn
• You are ready to build confidence and strength while losing fat
