How does walking support your fat loss goals, support muscle and bone density and give you so many other health benefits at the same time? And where does that fit in with our cardio, cortisol levels and changing hormones when we get into our 40's and beyond? Today I'm taking a deeper dive into how our resting metabolic rate is influenced by our body composition, how we burn energy and lose body fat, the strategies around muscle preservation, and why this all matters as we age.

In this episode I'm exploring...

⭐️ How your body composition impacts your resting metabolic rate ⭐️ How our muscle tissue impacts our ability to lose body fat ⭐️ Reviewing the key training strategies that support body composition results ⭐️ Why many women start gaining more body fat in their 40's (and how to address it) ⭐️ How your body burns energy: TDEE, TEF, EAT and NEAT explained ⭐️ How walking more supports fat loss and preserves muscle and bone density ⭐️ Why we need to vary our approach slightly at different times in our lives
