The Diet And Fitness Industry LIED To You (4 TRUTHS)

[@jmdl]

Probably my favorite video of yours yet. I gained back some weight when I had to return to the office after the Covid work from home period. I finally discovered that when I rested more and increased my dietary fats, I actually started losing weight and gaining muscle more easily. I also learned that it's okay to relax a little in my 60s.

[@redefiningstrengthOC]

Love that you're evolving as your lifestyle and body change. Our workouts and diet should change over time to always meet us where we are at right now! And thank you!

[@meeshytracksbitesnpoints5074]

Omg I live near that location of Koffi! ❤❤

[@allisonnelson7731]

WOW! this statement you said...."Because food is not just truly fuel any longer. It’s social. It’s celebration. It’s emotional. It’s enjoyment" I am so glad you said that. Because eating just for fuel these days isn't realistic to me. Special events do come up, and I'm glad you teach how to balance things

[@nathanyoder4509]

Important point that more isn’t always better! When I was trying to have get abs I thought I needed more cardio, but I really needed more weight lifting and protein! Thanks for another helpful video Cori!

[@Dory8]

@nathanyoder4509 So, walking for 90 minutes is too much, then?

[@munchawski2151]

I still can't get over how amazing your hair is🤩 Thanks for the video!!!

[@johnf8609]

Great video Cori! You hit on just about all the bullet points I've been reading/hearing about for the last year. Thanks for the info.

[@Purple_Cloud_Wellness]

Excellent viewpoint pertaining to #2. Sometimes the smaller lower-calorie fast food entree can contribute more to fat gain than the nutrient-dense, but higher calorie option.

[@mariaiaweber]

Definitely a lot of excellent advice here. Love it ❤

[@colleenmccann1190]

Part of that lie is actually believing food is social, celebratory and emotional. I've chosen to prioritize fuel over all the other aspects and it's been remarkably easy. No balancing on the razors edge trying to juggle everything that food has become. See my life is NOT less-than because I prefer to ask my social circle to meet at the park, or someone's house where I can bring real food, or just skip the resto meal (seriously why do you have to be eating to interact with other people??). My accomplishments are not diminished because I skip putting food stuff in my mouth as congratulations. De-coupling food from these social constructs has been quite liberating.

[@jennyjohnston1993]

Luv this, I'm so over this eating clean, don't eat this, don't eat that 😡 l eat good whole foods most of the time n if l want something l just have it in smaller portions n I'm losing weight...thank you for making this process more sustainable......by the way luv the hair 👩‍🦰❤

[@AngDevigne]

I love this channel.

[@LaChilena09]

Love the hair and the message! Thank you!

[@miked4309]

i have histamine and salicylate sensitivities so there are lots of healthy foods that can make issues for my sinuses. when i think ive figured it out, something else arises. sometimes i eat food that i love that i know may cause me issues but i ignore it for the moment and then suffer later. very frustrating.

[@drewmancini404]

Love the video.

[@gregorysimileer]

Loving the hair!!

[@redefiningstrengthOC]

Thanks! It's been fun!

[@chrishanson3499]

Thanks

[@daysoftheboo]

I'm starting to be convinced that if I eat too much dietary fat it makes me gain weight much easier even if I eat in a calorie deficit I track my calories with a food scale measuring spoons and cups but early this year I noticed that I gained weight quickly when I was eating too many beans at that time I was improperly measuring out a serving of beans I was eating more calories than what I thought and those beings made me gain weight quickly so maybe it's some carbs and fats that make the body gain weight faster than others?? Even if it's about how many calories we eat in a day some foods cause the body to store body fat easier than other foods?? People who are on raw food or fruitarian diet claim to eat 3000 calories a day and don't gain weight in fact they're skinny is it because raw foods and fruits don't store as body fat so easily??

[@redefiningstrengthOC]

Each of us has different macro ratios that work based on our activity level, genetics and even lifestyle balance. And then those macros can impact the number of calories we need. Also making sure our portions are truly the size we need them to be can be key. Even types of foods can impact us each differently!

[@daysoftheboo]

@@redefiningstrengthOC oh wow so then it is true some food really do intact our weight even healthy Whole foods , the most difficult part about this weight-loss journey is having to eat higher protein than other macros I was eating lots of beans because I thought they have protein but I know they also have lots of carbs , as much as I love carbs I can't deny that eating higher-protein has been benefiting me , but now I'm measuring beans correctly to make sure I don't go over OH if only beans were higher in protein and lower in carbs LOL 😂

FIRST COMMENT : 🩵🥇❤👍🌟

[@MaatTehuti_Dr_Clark_PsyD]

With every bite I ask myself, 'Is this contributing to or destroying my health 🤔'? Occasionally, I willfully engage in a brief, limited foray into a destructive eating habit because it's 😋 tasty, nostalgic. But... I engage knowing full well I must accept responsibility for the outcome 😅 (extra time in the gym or extra caloric intake restriction) . EVERYTHING IN MODERATION, EVEN MODERATION. 🎉

[@redefiningstrengthOC]

YESSSS! Finding your balance and weighing the cost and rewards to determine what is best for you!

[@MaatTehuti_Dr_Clark_PsyD]

@@redefiningstrengthOC thank you for keeping me on the square, I find your attitude and spirit of open conveyance so refreshingly honest, especially in a world full of trickery. Many Blessings 🙏🏿

[@bigaz72]

Love how Cori always makes it real and relatable. Everyone has a top 5 this, 5 things you shouldn't eat, 5 things you must, 5 training routines you are doing wrong, 5 things you must do, your working too hard, your training isn't intense enough. Eat less, no eat more, yada, yada. Sometimes I feel like I just suck. Thanks Cori for keeping it real and making us smile.

[@dugfriendly]

I love how practical/pragmatic this channel is ❤

[@angelicaannegreen6709]

Thank for the messages of truth. I am now correcting a lifetime of following the myths and attaining the slim physique only to have my body rebel once menopause knocked on my door and brought her friend hypothyroidism. My new mantra is balance not perfection. I am finally listening to my body.

[@pamelavance648]

Balance not perfection 💕

[@PeachGirl46]

Help. I am 59 with lots of fat and weak muscles.

[@janinepannell]

More shock thumbnails for views! Making up problems. Reinventing the wheel unsub

[@tridelltransportation3603]

So I’m down 25 pounds on my journey to shedding 100 total. I’m shooting for 1500 calories a day. Protein around 40%, fat around 40% and carbs around 20. One day of long hard(for me) cardio, one long day of easy cardio, two hiit days, two weight training days. I have off days mixed in with all of that and two days that focus mostly on stretching and mobility. After 6 weeks I gave myself a food break and ate some ice cream, some pretzels, a grilled cheese and a BLT. After a week of that I got back on track. The little break sort of resets my brain and keeps me from collapsing and binging on Doritos,etc. I’m looking to shed 8-10 pounds a month so I’m on a one year project. It took me decades to to get to where I’m at now and recovering in a year to me seems like a victory. Down 100 pounds and I’ll be at 200. At that point I can get serious about training for the 12 miles in three hours with a 50 pound rucksack goal. It’s a phase of a selection process I managed as a young man and I believe, maybe foolishly, that I can do it again at 67. I’ve got the standard shitty hips and cranky back(some days) but I’ve never smoked and despite being way overweight I’m still unmedicated. 25 pounds down and I can go 3 miles cross country already. Thank you,Cori, for all the advice. As always, all the best to you.

[@adegbenroagoro5180]

I was just wondering “Where’s Cori’s Sunday post?”. Thank you very much Cori.

[@ahsokaventriss3268]

Your red hair looks gorgeous!!!

[@lizmccaleb577]

When I was in my 20’s and early 30’s food was fuel, but now in my 40’s it’s all about “what restaurant do you want to eat at?” I just accept this as part of my social life, so I have made adjustments accordingly.

[@AKBRONCOSFAN007]

Moderation is key with the foods we eat. Hydration and sleep are a must. As Zig Ziegler once said, “Without a target you’ll miss it every time.” So set realistic goals for yourself and then get after it.

[@user-vz3fh6oj7d]

Oh, I love her now. Subscribed. I'm an exerciser; 6 days/1hour/moderate weight lifter/jogger. I have been very stressed out by reading/seeing all the advice out there. It's confusing and annoying.

[@IBTU]

Can you do a video on the muscle balance between men and women please?

[@TheBulletzgottishow20]

❤❤❤❤❤❤️‍🔥❤️‍🔥❤️‍🔥🌹🌹🌹 I love this

[@hjba1022]

Hi! I love HIIT and probably fall into your category of overdoing it. I usually do HIIT twice a week, with a steady state cardio day and walking other days. Is that too much? Thanks!

[@redefiningstrengthOC]

Depends on how long the sessions are and the other intensity of your training and goals. HIIT isn't just one interval breakdown either and can be used in different ways. Also make sure to get that strength training in there. So key! Tracking what you're doing to see the results can help you adjust and see if it is right for your goals and needs.

[@nicolenoriega7674]

I appreciate you including thyroid vs vegetables.

[@1memo1717]

I love your videos …. They give me a great push … thank you really ❤

[@redefiningstrengthOC]

So glad they help!

[@loveobviously]

You’re always keeping it real.

[@drewcama2488]

I guess what your saying is we really need a pro trainer to help us track everything because there are just to many variables that fluctuate to really know what is working and what isn't. Myth #1 how are we supposed to know how food will impact our over all being? Like how is someone supposed to know if broccoli is no good for them unless a Doctor had diagnosed this. Most people do not have Doctors and even less have access to blood tests to let them know what they are deficient in. I'm 57 and always relatively healthy. I've never had a GP or blood tests done. The only time I see a doctor is in the emergency room to get stitches. Myth 2 You cant be in a calorie deficit, yet our body adapts to using less calories. Seems like a contradiction. Focus on tracking macros? Myth 3 HIT is good but don't over do it. Then I guess I need a trainer to show me when I've reached that point. . Myth 4 don't use trackers because they can be off this makes it harder to track reality. So again a pro trainer and a pro dietician and a Doctor. This is your first video where I'm left feeling....... I either need to be rich to afford all the professional monitoring and coaching or obsessed and or a professional trainer myself to loose wait and maintain fitness as I get older.

[@Nellie7777777]

Hi, what would you consider to be a good macro Balance for perimenopause and low estrogen?no periods and no thyroid is good. I'm 44 and have started weight lifting. I've followed a very low protein, high carb low fat diet for 15 years and I am dramatically changing my macros. Ttde calculator says I need 65 gr fat, 140 gr protein and modest amount of carbs. Thanks you

[@redefiningstrengthOC]

So glad it helps! And couldn't agree more. The more we start assessing what we need, the more we can make truly lasting changes!

[@laurendegiorgio9009]

I have been dieting pretty much for 4 years straight. I can't seem to lose the weight. Went on keto for 2 years and lose almost 30 lbs. A loss in my family made meal prepping impossible and I regained nearly all of the weight within 2 months. I have seen a doctor and my resting heart rate was 30 bpm...which my dr says my body has just become super efficient. I believe my metabolism has been severely damaged as I rapidly put on weight. Any advice? I am tired of the yoyo 30!

[@anavalenz9716]

Thank you! This video is really useful for me, I have been with a healthy weight all my life until I started listening to fitness “experts” , back to basics, what really works for me

[@stephanieannhall3938]

Always good commentary. Luv the eyes and hair color--spice up your life!

[@dennamarie1750]

Thanks for the video! I wish I knew where to find someone to help me as an individual... Even asking for a referral to a "healthy lifestyle coach" at my doctor's office hasn't brought me individual advice based on my requests.

[@beth8678]

Girl I hardly recognized you with your new look !!

[@clarkfoerster]

How we plan to support all our systems working together for health begins, for me, with practicing continuum thinking, rather than binary thinking. Continuum thinking is impossible, in my opinion, without being part of a community that supports the practice of it. Finding this community is job one. It involves social skills, discrimination, and gate-keeping, the latter two aspects being particularly difficult because they seem to defy community-building. In my opinion, there is a philosophical juggernaut that must be cracked to be a change agent of your own life.

[@virginiemazy7054]

I like this video because you have a lot of nuances. I like the approach of : don’t associate a work out with burning calories. About food indeed it’s best not to classify food as good or bad because it’s more a question of frequency. They is food you better eat more of it (veggies) and others where it’s for pleasure but not for everyday or at least not a big amount (eg chocolate cake).

[@AlexanderFallaria]

beautiful content! do you have a business email?

[@kimberlyDreyer-qn5gb]

Always so inspiring ❤

[@PeachGirl46]

Yes. I am hypothyroid and I no longer add kale in my morning smoothie.

[@mjgutzmann1681]

This is an encouraging reminder. Right now I'm the leanest I've been in my life, but these last few pounds are quite the challenge. So I'm mindful of metabolic adaptation instead of that "Something's gotta give/CICO!" way of thinking. But I have learned that maintenance, for me, will be easier than I believed. I thought for sure I'd regain everything overnight by going on a maintenance phase :O

When we had our first child she had colic for days. And days and days. My wife, god bless her, consulted everyone and anyone who had an opinion on what she should eat to avoid her breast milk making our daughter cranky. After a week it became obvious that everything was bad.

[@TheRozylass]

Our daughter was like that too. I finally determined that it was the medicines they had given me to induce labor for 8 hours had crossed the placenta and were giving our little girl bad cramps! Once that metabolized out of her body she was fine. Took a month or more to do so. Next four babies, I delivered with no meds at all. Wasn't going down that road again.

[@ΓιώργοςΚουτσιούλης]

Very nice video!

[@Burnsomatic]

Cori, may I ask you what your height is? I have the feeling that you are petite. I am tall (6'3"), and some of the moves you do so effortlessly with beautiful form, I believe are more difficult for me, at least to some extent, simply because of my height.

[@redefiningstrengthOC]

I'm almost 5'4 (on my best day 😉)

[@Burnsomatic]

Thank you, that's about what I would have guessed. BTW, your fitness is beautiful to behold. I can imagine how it must feel to be your size and to be that fit! I always enjoy your inspiring videos. Sometimes the abundance of information is overwhelming and I have to realize that I can only do so much. @@redefiningstrengthOC
