 is a scale really useful. In this video I go over why a scale does not matter when it comes to seeing results. So let's go ahead and get to it. What's up guys?

So topic of the day does the scale really matter? Like, does this guy really matter? No, it doesn't. Alright? Oh, I might need to get that replaced. So there's a couple reasons why it does not matter. First off, the scale does not account for anything regarding your body composition, so like your body fat. That's what really matters when it comes to like seeing results, because you could lose 10 or 15 pounds, and then you look at your body in the mirror, and you're like, the heck? I still look like the same. I just look like a little bit skinnier in the face. And that's because the scale doesn't account for how much muscle mass you've gained, or how much body fat you're lost. Like, what's your body fat percentage? So you got to keep that in mind that that weight is just a number. That's what leads to number two. The second reason why the scale doesn't matter is because your weight fluctuates literally day after day after day. And that's because your body is consuming different foods, consuming different liquids, like water. You weigh different at different times of the day. Think about at night, you're going to be probably a little bit heavier because you've eaten throughout the day. And then in the morning, you're probably going to be a little bit lighter because of the fact that your food has been digested all night. So your weight fluctuates, and it's not a reliable factor when it comes to looking and seeing results. And the last reason, and honestly, this is the most important to me, it's just depressing. Look at that number on the scale, it's just sad, because at the end of the day, you're relying on a number. What I usually tell people to do is to take a picture of themselves and put it on the next to the bathroom mirror. Now, you don't have to do this. Just take a picture of yourself in general and try to have something tangible, right? Try to fit in that bathing suit that you've always wanted to fit into. Maybe it's fitting into a dress that you bought a year ago or a suit that you've been trying to fit in. That's what it really matters. The scale is not reliable, but how you feel and fit into something that's tangible, that's something that you can track. And on top of that, you get that external benefit. You're like, man, I look good. That's what really matters when it comes to weight. That scale does not matter. It's okay to track it once in a while just to see your progress, but at the end of the day, you want to check out your body composition. If you're fitting into the clothes and if you're feeling great, that's what matters. At the end of the day, are you feeling good? Are you feeling like you're making progress? If you are, then you're really getting results. So I hope this video was super helpful for you. If it was, feel free to put helpful in the comment box.
