The 3 Levers That Burn Fat (Most People Ignore #2)

Ready to go from “holiday fluffy” to shredded for summer? In this video, Big Paul breaks down exactly how fat loss works (no BS), what actually matters for getting lean, and how to do it without losing muscle or wrecking your metabolism. You’ll learn the real “3 levers” for fat loss: ✅ Eat less (diet strategy first) ✅ Do more cardio (smart, not savage) ✅ Use fat burners strategically (including GLP-1s, stimulants, etc.) Plus, why macros are better than calorie counting for body composition, how carb cycling can help you stay strong and full while leaning out, and what to realistically expect with weekly fat loss (spoiler: 1–2 lbs/week is the sweet spot for keeping muscle). What’s inside: 💥 The fastest way to lose fat (and why cardio isn’t the first move) 💥 How to use carb cycling + refeeds without getting fat 💥 Why protein stays high (and usually shouldn’t change) 💥 How to adjust carbs/cardio when you stall (small moves that work) 💥 Why intense cardio can make you look/feel like trash 💥 How long to run a fat loss phase (16–20 weeks) + when to take a diet break 💥 How people accidentally create metabolic damage (and how to avoid it)

They Took 100mg DBol a Day… The Results Shocked Even Scientists

A groundbreaking study on Dianabol challenges conventional gym wisdom. Weight gain from Dbol might not mean real muscle but mainly fluid and glycogen. Researchers reveal how nitrogen retention indicates muscle changes, while potassium spikes suggest water retention. Rapid gains can be impressive, but they often fade after stopping the supplement. The risks include increased blood pressure and acne, making it crucial to weigh short-term size against long-term health effects. Tune in for insights that every lifter needs!
