Weight reduction

Weight reduction describes the targeted reduction of body weight, usually through a combination of nutrition and exercise. The key factor is a negative energy balance – over a longer period, more calories must be burned than consumed.

Strength training and cardio sessions, such as running, spinning, or HIIT (High-Intensity Interval training), support this process. Muscle building is a crucial factor: the more muscle mass there is, the higher the body's basal metabolic rate.
