Best Way to Accurately Measure Weight Loss Progress (Without Going Crazy)

Here's the best way to accurately measure your weight loss and fat loss progress without going crazy with the measurements.

Video Summary:

Fat loss is not linear. That's lesson one.

It often does 1 step back and then 2 steps forward.

However, if we're in a caloric deficit with a sufficient amount of training, optimized diet, and with good sleep we can be confident that the majority of weight we lose will be fat.

The main thing about measuring weight loss using a weight scale is consistency. The more variables you keep consistent the more accurately you can measure correlation and change.

3 things are important for consistency:

Have the scale in the same place for every measurement
Measure at the same day and time each time (preferably morning after toilet on the empty stomach)
Take at least 3 points of measurement throughout the week spread a few days apart.

With these 3 things you're able to get a pretty consistent weekly average, and you're gonna be able to see clear trends of weight going up or down.

And for fat loss goals if those above things that I've mentioned are taken care of (training, caloric deficit, sleep) you can be sure that you're mainly losing fat.

On top of this, you can add other tools such as body fat calories but I personally don't bother myself too much with that.

The bathroom scale is enough to measure progress if you apply the above method. You don't need any special tools.

Now, this might seem like a very basic "I already knew that" thing but don't let that distract you from applying it consistently.

It comes down to sustaining focus and applying things like this on a constant basis rather than some special trick.
