Do you struggle to make strength training a priority because you “just don’t have the time or energy”? I get it — life is busy, and the thought of adding one more thing to your plate can feel overwhelming. But what if I told you that strength training might actually give you more energy — and could be the missing piece in your weight loss journey?

If you’ve been trying to lose weight and you feel exhausted, stuck, or frustrated with slow progress, this episode is for you. Today, I’m sharing why strength training is the real secret to lasting weight loss — and how just 30 minutes, two to three times a week, can completely change the way you feel and move through your day.

We’re not talking about more cardio or cutting more calories. We’re talking about building strength, confidence, and energy that lasts.

And if you need help getting started with a strength training program that actually fits your life, I’d love to help! You can email me at taraj@dietditching.com, or come join me in my Facebook group, Lose Weight, Live Free, where we’re ditching diets and finding real freedom together.

Ruthie's Table 4

Ruthie's Table 4

For more than 30 years The River Cafe in London, has been the home-from-home of artists, architects, designers, actors, collectors, writers, activists, and politicians. Michael Caine, Glenn Close, JJ Abrams, Steve McQueen, Victoria and David Beckham, and Lily Allen, are just some of the people who love to call The River Cafe home. On River Cafe Table 4, Rogers sits down with her customers—who have become friends—to talk about food memories. Table 4 explores how food impacts every aspect of our lives. “Foods is politics, food is cultural, food is how you express love, food is about your heritage, it defines who you and who you want to be,” says Rogers. Each week, Rogers invites her guest to reminisce about family suppers and first dates, what they cook, how they eat when performing, the restaurants they choose, and what food they seek when they need comfort. And to punctuate each episode of Table 4, guests such as Ralph Fiennes, Emily Blunt, and Alfonso Cuarón, read their favourite recipe from one of the best-selling River Cafe cookbooks. Table 4 itself, is situated near The River Cafe’s open kitchen, close to the bright pink wood-fired oven and next to the glossy yellow pass, where Ruthie oversees the restaurant. You are invited to take a seat at this intimate table and join the conversation.
