How Do I Lose Fat? - Day 51
About this episode
Ever wondered where body fat actually goes when you lose weight?
Most women know they need a calorie deficit to lose fat, but very few understand the physiology behind what actually happens inside the body. In this episode, we walk through the entire fat-loss process, from creating an energy deficit, to releasing stored fat through lipolysis, mobilizing and oxidizing fat for energy, and finally explaining where that fat physically leaves the body. You'll also learn why hormones matter without overriding the laws of energy balance, why weight loss isn't always fat loss, and why understanding the science helps you ignore gimmicks and trust the body recomposition process.
