Wits & Weights | Fat Loss, Nutrition, & Strength Training for Lifters Bonus Episode: 3 Simple Ways to Achieve a Fitter, Leaner Body in Midlife
Have you ever chased the number on the scale only to find yourself back at square one?
This conversation is from my appearance on Megan Dahlman's podcast, Self Care Simplified.
Megan invited me on her podcast to dig into the strategies that actually work for sustainable fat loss, especially for those in midlife. We discussed the difference between weight loss and fat loss, and how to lose fat while maintaining muscle mass. I shared insights on why the approaches that worked in our 20s might not be as effective in our 40s, 50s, and beyond.
Throughout our conversation, we covered the importance of understanding body composition and its role in fat loss. I also shared 3 guiding principles for achieving true, sustainable fat loss and how to incorporate them into your life.
If you've ever felt frustrated, confused, or defeated in your pursuit of fat loss, this episode will break it down into simple, attainable steps.
Enjoy my conversation with Megan Dahlman on Self Care Simplified!
