Hello everyone - looking for a mental hack - I have started to new (to me) weight lifting program as the strength part was lacking in my fitness routines. I still cardio but am incorporating more weights. As such, I am starting to get stronger and my work capacity is improving but also noticed my weight slowly increasing. My clothes are fitting looser so that's a good thing but the scale number is starting to bother me. Before this, I was locked into what the scale number said. It was easy to take steps to drop the weight if the scale number jumped. I like the feeling of pushing the weight (dead-lifts, bench presses, etc) so I know that with added muscle will mean 'good' weight gain. So, if anybody has any mental hacks so I don't have to be so locked into what the scale number says as opposed to being strong, let me know. Have a great day everyone.
