If cardio has you in a chokehold because summer is around the corner, this episode is going to free you.
This episode was inspired by two DMs we receive constantly. The woman who’s already doing cardio most days and wondering if she should just do more. And the woman who’s been lifting consistently for months, getting stronger, but not feeling any leaner, and wondering if weights are actually overrated for fat loss.
If you’ve ever been either of those people, you’re in the right place.
We then unpack a 2026 study from Tel Aviv University published in Frontiers in Endocrinology (PMID: 41625248), 304 real people, real(ish) context, that makes the case for resistance training more clearly than almost anything else in the current literature. Including a finding about visceral fat that will completely reframe the way you think about belly fat.
