Choose Hard with Cody McBroom

#77 - The Truth About Body Fat %, Insulin, and Seed Oils


Listen Later

In this episode of the Choose Hard Podcast, Cody McBroom and Tailored Coaching Method’s Coach Kyle team up for another listener Q&A, tackling some of the most common (and controversial) questions in fitness and nutrition. From programming strongman-style training like farmer’s carries and sandbag work, to breaking down whether weight loss goals should focus on total weight or body fat percentage, this conversation delivers both science and practicality.

Cody and Kyle also dive into the accuracy of body fat testing methods, whether insulin spikes really impact fat loss goals, and how to approach the heated debate around seed oils with your nutrition clients.

Plus, they tackle rapid-fire segments on the hard things more people should be doing, the one piece of advice they’d give to their kids in high school, and what they’d like to see more people doing in their fitness journeys.

👉 In this episode, you’ll learn:

- How to incorporate strongman training into your workouts

- The truth about body fat % vs. scale weight for fat loss goals

- The most accurate ways to test your true body fat percentage

- Whether insulin and blood sugar spikes really affect fat loss

- What you should (and shouldn’t) worry about with seed oils

This episode blends science-backed insights with real-world coaching experience—perfect for anyone who wants clear answers to today’s most confusing fitness questions.
