The Brad Jensen Show NLP688 - Why You're Struggling with Fat Loss: A Conversation with Andres Ayesta
In this insightful episode, we're joined by Andres Ayesta — RD, fat loss coach, and founder of Planos Nutrition — who has helped over 600 clients achieve lasting fat loss with expert-built systems. With more than 12 years of coaching experience, Andres shares why so many people fail in their fitness and fat loss journeys, and what it actually takes to succeed.
Andres breaks down his powerful "rocks, pebbles, and sand" analogy, helping you understand what's truly important in your health journey — and what's just noise. We unpack why foundational habits like daily movement, strength training, and protein intake are your "rocks," while debates over seed oils or supplements are more like "sand."
You'll hear practical tips on prioritizing what matters most, plus examples of how clients get caught up in distractions that don't drive real progress. Andres shares actionable strategies to simplify your approach and finally see results.

- Why most people fail to make lasting changes in fitness and nutrition.
