293. Fat Loss Doesn’t Start in the Kitchen


Listen Later

You’ve probably heard it a million times: “Abs are made in the kitchen.”

And while nutrition definitely plays a role in fat loss, the truth is… it doesn’t start there.

In this episode of the Running Lean podcast, I’m flipping that outdated advice on its head in: Fat Loss Doesn’t Start in the Kitchen.

You’ll learn why focusing only on food is a losing strategy, and how factors like your mindset, sleep quality, stress levels, and training approach all have a massive impact on your ability to lose fat—and keep it off.

So if you’re stuck in the cycle of eating less and running more but still not seeing results, it might be time to take a different approach.

This is the stuff nobody’s talking about when it comes to fat loss…and it changes everything.
