Should You Hold Onto The Treadmill on Incline Walk?
In this concise fitness short, Eric Roberts debunks several common workout myths. He first clarifies that holding onto the treadmill while walking on an incline is fine if it helps you feel safe or balanced, countering the usual advice to avoid it. He then explains that cutting out sugar alone won’t lead to fat loss; instead, overall daily calorie balance determines fat loss. Next, he addresses weight‑loss expectations, stating that losing about one pound per week is a healthy pace, whereas faster loss can cause muscle loss and unsustainable dieting. Finally, he discusses cardio after strength training, noting that intense, all‑out cardio immediately after lifting can impair recovery, but light walking or low‑intensity cardio won’t sabotage gains and can aid fat loss. He ends with a call‑to‑action, directing viewers to a link in his bio for a free calorie‑deficit calculator.
