    		It's not quite that simple. Weight loss is multi-faceted and both men and women have their strengths and weaknesses:

    #1) The number one reason men and women have a hard time losing weight is because of poor nutrition.

    Advantage: Women

    #2) The second reason men and women struggle with weight loss is because their metabolism decreases over time due to muscle loss and reduced activity.

    Advantage: Men

    #3) Men and women will struggle with weight loss if they only rely on slow, boring cardio.

    Advantage: Men

    #4) Men and women have a hard time with weight loss if they don’t have social support.

    Advantage: Women

    #5) Men and women struggle with weight loss because of poor exercise choices.

    Advantage: Tie.
