Are you actually building muscle, or just gaining body fat??
When the number on the scale starts going up, it can be difficult to know whether your training and nutrition are actually working (especially because the scale can’t tell you what that weight is made up of).
In this video, I break down the 4 signs I look for to tell whether you’re successfully building muscle, including your rate of weight gain, strength and gym performance, how your clothes are fitting, and what to look for in your progress photos.
We’ll also talk about how quickly women can realistically expect to build muscle, why faster weight gain doesn’t necessarily mean faster muscle growth, and whether you actually need to “bulk” to build a strong, defined physique.

Agree with the “how your clothes feel” point…. I got into a habit of walking 15,000 steps a day (ok, some days it was 7,000 steps!) over the last two years and my quads got quite big and defined. And this was obvious when I was wearing jeans.
