287 - The Truth About GLP-1s and Building Lasting Results (on or off them!)

I think most people assume their workouts are doing all the heavy lifting when it comes to their metabolism, but that’s not actually where most of your calories are burned. In this episode, I’m breaking down what REALLY makes up your energy burn and why your workouts are one of the smallest pieces of the puzzle. We’ll talk about the parts of your metabolism that make the biggest difference, what changes the most as we age, and where your focus should actually be if you want a healthy, strong, efficient body long-term. This is one of those episodes that’s going to make you look at your body, your movement, and your habits in a completely different way.→ Get on the waitlist here so you’re first to know when the Muscle & Metabolism Challenge launches next week!Do you feel like your metabolism has slowed down?
