Picture this: You’ve finally found a weight loss plan that works. You start seeing results and you begin think that nothing can stop you now.

Unfortunately, this is the fatal flaw most people make when it comes to getting a lean & fit body. They’ll get some initial results following a plan, but they never really think about what happens AFTER they lose weight.

Most people don’t realize that losing weight is only half the battle. You can’t just “stop” once you hit your weight loss goal. If you go back to doing what you were doing before, and you’ll surely end up right back to where you started!

I've also been in the fitness industry for years now, so I've come up with these 5 ways for staying fit and healthy which will hopefully help ease the challenges one may be faced with during Ramadan.

Controlling your diet is the key to losing weight and fat; there’s no doubt about that. But if you want to achieve maximum changes in your body composition—gain lean muscles and burn more body fat—weight training is also essential along with clean eating.

Aside from making you stronger, weight training also boosts the metabolism and builds lean muscles, which in turn will speed up weight loss.
