Most people think their metabolism is broken. They believe age, stress, past dieting, or “eating too little” has permanently damaged their ability to lose fat—and that belief keeps them stuck.
In this episode of the Choose Hard Podcast, I break down what metabolism actually is, how it truly works, and why most of the fear-based narratives around fat loss are flat-out wrong.
You’ll learn why metabolic adaptation is normal, not harmful… why weight loss doesn’t stall because your metabolism is “slow”… and how understanding Total Daily Energy Expenditure (TDEE) gives you back control of your results.
This episode is for anyone who:
- Feels like fat loss “used to be easier”
- Is afraid of dieting because they don’t want to “damage” their metabolism
- Has blamed hormones, age, or genetics for stalled progress
- Wants science-based clarity instead of fear-mongering
In this episode, we cover:
- What metabolism really is (and what it isn’t)
- Why you cannot break your metabolism
- How and why metabolism adapts during fat loss
- The 4 components of Total Daily Energy Expenditure (TDEE): Resting Metabolic Rate (RMR), Thermic Effect of Food (TEF), Exercise Activity Thermogenesis (EAT), & Non-Exercise Activity Thermogenesis (NEAT)
- The most common metabolism myths that sabotage fat loss
- Why behavior—not biology—is usually the real bottleneck
If you want sustainable fat loss without fear, confusion, or extremes, this episode will give you the clarity you’ve been missing.
