Fat Loss, Part 1: Managing Expectations
Season Two kicks off with a three-part series on fat loss, starting with managing expectations. This episode addresses common misconceptions fueled by social media and the allure of instant results, which often highlight unrealistic standards. We discuss how our culture of instant gratification clashes with the realities of sustainable fat loss, and explore the misconception around calorie deficits, especially the inconsistency between weekday and weekend habits.
Later in the series, we shift the focus to the tangible results of fat loss, explaining why inches lost can be more significant than just pounds. Real client experiences illustrate the value of taking measurements and progress photos for a full view of transformation. We also emphasize the role of nutrition and strength training in preserving muscle mass during fat loss, and the importance of setting realistic goals to achieve lasting results. Tune in as we unpack these insights for a more successful fat loss journey.
