The Simplest & Fastest Ways To Kill Your Body Fat! | Mind Pump

[@drx6139]

I had a “broken metabolism.” I would cut down my calories to 1000 cal a day and I was overtraining, with weight lifting and too much cardio. I would think, “this isn’t sustainable, how could I maintain this for the rest of my life.” One weekend off my diet would make me gain weight. I tried reverse dieting because I listened to this podcast. I don’t do cardio, I do my steps and I weight train. I’m eating at 1800 calories a day and hitting my protein goals. I’m so much happier, stronger and I can’t believe I’m eating all this food. I still want to get to 2000 calories but it’s already getting to be too much food for me. I was so scared to eat before. I really am shocked I can eat this much, it feels like it shouldn’t be this easy. I look great, feel stronger and I’m eating. I could cry because I feel so much better.

[@La-Donna]

This is amazing and very much what I’m striving for. I’m happy for you!

[@drx6139]

@@La-Donna it really is a mental trip because I thought I had to torture myself with working out hard for an hour (sometimes longer) a day, restrict my calories so low my energy was down, and I had to be sore the next day to believe I was making progress. I would go for 3 months and be sooo burnt out. I feel so relieved because I thought I messed up my metabolism. I feel like I’m not struggling mentally anymore, stressed about the number on the scale going down. My waist is back to 25 inches but I weigh more than I did before. I’m assuming this is muscle density. It was tough at first to believe in the process because the scale wasn’t moving down as fast as it did when I was on a very low calorie diet. I implore any woman (or man), to give this a shot. It seriously changed my life. I wish you all the best on your journey!

[@BlingyBea]

Congratulations, may I ask what you eat in a day.

[@ababy6074]

How long did this take you? And how much did you increase your calories each week?

[@drx6139]

@@BlingyBea okay so in the morning I have a latte with WHOLE milk and then I’ll have a yogurt for more protein and hour later. First actual meal meal is a two egg omelette. I’ll put a bunch of veggies in there and whatever meat I have. If I don’t have time I’ll throw together a protein smoothie in the blender. Before my work out I’ll have a piece of fruit and turkey slices. Lunch is usually a bahn Minh (a Vietnamese sandwich that has pork) or a chicken caprese sandwich. It’s easier for me to have a sandwich so I don’t have to overthink it. Sometimes I’ll have a side salad or a yogurt with it. Dinner is usually a chicken pita with a cabbage salad or I’ll do stir fry. I have a sweet tooth (although since eating more protein and less processed foods, my sweet cravings are practically nonexistent) so I’ll have half a Crumbl cookie but I always have at least 20 grams in a protein shake before my treat.

When you shared the story about being able to use strength training to ramp up Melissa’s calories up to 2700 prior to her bikini competition, my heart sang with hope…this is the journey I am beginning. I have always been skinny, a long distance runner, and now at age 52 I want to build muscle, get strong, protect my bones and enjoy eating more food. This is so encouraging to know that I could work up to this kind of fast metabolism. Thanks for all you do to share your knowledge and combat the messages we are getting from the fitness industry. This is exciting!

[@marvelx8173]

I am so glad you said everything you said about initial weight gain and your clothes fitting tighter. I have been weight training for about 4 months and while I do feel better it is a bummer to feel like I am not going in the right direction; however, I feel better, I look more toned and I do feel like I have lost some puffiness. Now I am really focusing on hitting my protein targets and simplifying my diet. It took me a long time to gain my weight and I need to trust the process and build good habits and the weight will drop. Thanks all of you!!

You guys need to make sure to recommend that pull downs/pull-ups as one of the big bang for your buck compound movements!! You always say dead lift, row, shoulder press, chest press,& squat, but you leave out one of the most neglected primal movements/vertical upper body pulling!!!

Mom of three under 6. I have a 14 month old that nurses all night and sleeps with me. Sleep is hard to get consistently but i still strength train 5 days a week. My postpartum body has leaned out significantly even though my weights hasnt gone down. I feel like a powerhouse and eat 3k at maintenance. Nutrient dense foods, no alcohol for years, strength training, and tons of protein. I cant imahine the results id have with sleep😂.

Love this episode, 48 years old now, strength training 4x a week for the last 2 years. Lost 28 kilos, got a better body, a better life. Eat mostly whole foods with room for a little of the “naughty” stuff. Struggled my whole life with yo-yo dieting and the loads of cardio concept. I appreciate your mission! Thank you

[@kyleparham8707]

Three kids and a busy firehouse. Good sleep isn’t an option. Using y’all’s advice, I went from 17% to 10% in 6 weeks. 211lb to 200lbs. Gained 6lbs of muscle and lost 17lbs of fat. Measured in a bod pod. Can’t imagine what sleep would do for me.

[@WonderWomanInMichigan]

Guys at work have asked if ive lost 10lbs but scale hasn't dropped Im able to lift heavier now. Yesterday i was able to do chest flys using 40lb dumbbells (48 years old)

[@ephesians6125]

I'm a 65 year old woman. I slowly started strength training a few months ago. I have noticed that if I over train or have a heavy work day at anything, I need a lot of recovery time. I don't even feel like going for a walk because my body feels like it just wants to lay down to rest. So, I'm guessing at my age I really need to learn to gage better how much I can do all at once.

[@cege8693]

Try adding more protein. I’m 60 notice same as your saying on days I don’t get enough protein.

[@vcash1112]

Try adding Creatine for recovery or BCAA with electrolytes. Sleep a bit longer.

[@Bradlyludendurf]

@@vcash1112agreed but I’d take EAAs rather than BCAAs, research seems to show EAAs are a lot more effective

[@beyblade25]

As a 28 year old (M) I enjoy this when they talk about this subject. I was diagnosed with REDs, a metabolic disorder. Where I had brought my calories down so much because I was “dieting” dealing with a broken ankle and work life that I was lifting as much so wanted to avoid gaining body fat. Well I screwed up and did just the opposite so now I’m slowly eating more prioritizing strength training and letting the process play out

[@ababy6074]

I really need this. Love this podcast, and I listen to every one from Australia! I have had a history of 28 years of anorexia. I now strength train regularly and I'm really strong. I'd love to win a fitness program by these guys.

Incorporating cardiovascular exercises into your routine not only aids in weight management but also enhances your overall endurance, allowing you to perform better during strength training. Activities like running, cycling, or swimming can significantly improve your heart health, increasing blood flow and oxygen delivery to your muscles. This ensures that you're not just lifting weights but doing so with the energy and stamina needed to maximize your workouts. Moreover, a strong cardiovascular system helps with recovery, allowing your body to repair and grow stronger after intense sessions. It's essential to strike a balance between cardio and strength training; consider setting aside a few days each week for dedicated cardio sessions. This will not only keep your heart healthy but also contribute to better muscle performance, giving you the endurance to push through those last tough reps. So, as you craft your workout plan, remember to include a variety of cardio exercises that you enjoy. This will make it easier to stay consistent and committed to your fitness journey, leading to overall better health and well-being. Prioritize your heart, and it will reward you with the strength and stamina to achieve your fitness goals.

[@ababy6074]

Definitely you want to do activities that you enjoy, but these guys have always said that cardio is fine, and that it's great for your heart health and stamina to get through strength training workouts. You haven't said anything here that they haven't already said. And you definitely don't need dedicated cardio sessions a week. Walking is ALLL that's needed. But yes, of course we should have a good balance.

Im an experienced athlete and lifter who is well versed and practiced in nutrition. With all that in place i find fat starts coming off when i up the cardio.

For sure works I’m reverse dieting now & getting more lean it’s super weird, just upped my protein proportion mainly so it’s close to 40% & I’ve been recomping. Thought I would gain weight but I’m losing fat & gaining muscle bc getting more lean & staying same weight & visibly building. For sure an odd thing, prob slowest way to build muscle but feels good. Just simple stuff like 15-40 sets per group per week mostly uppers with bench & dumbbell, preachers, overheads, pull ups, pushups, bfr, lots of exercise snacks (10-15k steps/day, 10-20min zone 5 a week).

Muscle building is about protein intake not calories. If you eat 300g of protein with a 1500 cal diet you will build more muscle than a 100g protein and 3000 cal diet.

[@TimeWillTell651]

Are you sure this is true? You’re saying you can build muscle eating at a caloric deficit if your protein is high? And you won’t build muscle if you’re at a surplus but your protein isn’t high enough?

[@DWRants]

[@malta-gozo-islands]

Hey! I have a client who's 51 years old and would like to lose weight for an operation coming up in 3 months. She weighs 96kgs and she's 163cm. I figured out that she's not eating a lot of calories (around 1281) and hitting around 80g of protein. Her sleep is very bad and she doesn't exercise. She's quite active throughout the day - walks around 6,000 steps at her job. What would be the next best steps for quick, sustainable results, since her operation is due in 3 months?

Trying to understand how to reverse diet - I’m 65 female, only 4’10” 110 lbs lifting heavy 3 years 5-6x weekly (PPL and recover - less workout = no soreness), sleep 7 hrs avg, recover and only walking or no resistance cycle. I can see recomp is working and have built maybe 7 lbs muscle and been able to calorie cycle to eat more on weekends and less midweek to energy balance for the week. Maintenance maybe 200 more calories than before (1400-1500 vs 1250) since losing 40 lbs over 2 years so that’s progress. Still, if I eat 50-100 more calories, I gain about 1lb a month and it’s mostly just fluff not more muscle, so back on cutting and never get my metabolism to burn more without extra walking. So older post menopausal female with decent strength and muscle (push-pull near my weight), where do I go now?

I NEED YOUR HELP!!! I have written to you guys a few times but haven’t gotten an answer. Maybe I writing the wrong place or you guys are really busy idk but I really need help from someone who’s more knowledgeable than myself…. I am in a cut. I do very little cardio (15 minutes twice a week). I started off with a small cut 300/500 below maintenance. I wasn’t losing any fat (scale wasn’t moving, body fat test stayed the same) so I dropped 800 cals below maintenance and the same thing happened. I’d lose 1 pound and then gain 1/2 pounds. Finally I decided to cut 1,000 cals under maintenance and that’s when the scale went down along with body fat test and also some muscle! You guys say never go 1,000 cals under maintenance but why is that the only thing moving the needle for me?

[@suicidesquat]

I lost around 7 kg fat mass within 3-4 months, but in 1 month, i didn't monitor my calorie intake, was barely trained, gained fat 3 kg, and lost 2 kg of muscle mass. I'm also someone who can gain fat easily and build muscle at a normal rate, but once it's time to lose fat; it takes so long. The best thing to do is keep on low intensity cardio like walking, make sure the protein target is met, and do lift training regularly. Once you have fat cells, they just shrunk; the only way to get rid of it permanently is through liposuction(even that you can still create fat cells if you went above your maintenance calories intake and be sedentary) Don't be afraid of gaining fat mass. The more you build your muscles, it will eventually drop, too. As long you do monitor your activities level, training, nutrition, and rest. Keep on training and you will build muscle + get strong. Best of luck!!
