The Iron Life Podcast #64: Why You're Not Losing Fat

The Iron Life Podcast #64: Why You’re Not Losing Fat

You might think that no matter how hard you train and how well you eat that you “just can’t lose fat”.

Endless HIIT, Keto diets, intermittent fasts and everything else just don’t seem to work for the long haul.

Here’s what you need to understand… The amount of lean muscle mass that you have on your frame dictates the rate of your metabolism. So, the more muscle you have, the faster your metabolic rate, the more calories and fat you can burn throughout the day.

So if you’ve been starving yourself to death and doing endless cardio, you’ve actually been SLOWING down your progress for the long haul!

On today’s episode I’m going to teach you exactly what you need to do to finally take off that unwanted body fat once and for all.

Check it out and learn exactly what you need to do in the gym and in the kitchen to see the results you want.
