Episode 2696:

Christian Finn from MuscleEvo.net explains why fat loss often slows down as you progress and what to do about it. He discusses the metabolic changes that occur with weight loss, including adaptive thermogenesis and reduced non-exercise activity, and offers practical advice on how to adjust your diet and activity levels to maintain progress.

Read along with the original article(s) here: https://muscleevo.net/slow-fat-loss/

Quotes to ponder:

"It’s quite normal for your rate of fat loss to slow down over time."

"Remember, your goal isn’t necessarily to build muscle while you drop fat. It’s to retain the muscle you already have."

"There is also a drop in energy expenditure in response to dieting, which is not entirely explained by changes in body composition."
