Most men can lose weight.

The problem is keeping it off.

In this episode, Adrian breaks down the science of what happens to your body after a fat loss phase — and the exact strategy McLifestyle uses with clients to lock in results permanently.

What You'll Learn in This Episode:

• Why your body actively works against you after fat loss — and the four biological responses that drive weight regain

• What reverse dieting is, how it works, and why it's the missing piece most men never use

• The difference between a reverse diet and a diet break — and when to use each one

• How to calculate your new maintenance calories after a cut

• The step-by-step weekly calorie increase protocol to rebuild your metabolism without gaining fat

• How to train during a reverse diet to maximise muscle retention and strength gains

• The half-time rule for timeline expectations — and why patience here pays off permanently

• Martin’s full journey — 88kg to 76kg at 50, reverse dieted back to 3,000 calories as his new maintenance

In this episode, Aido breaks down the four non-negotiable pillars of longevity for men over 40  and how you can optimise all four areas so you can look, feel and perform your utmost best.

Key Takeaways:

• After 35, men lose 1–2% of muscle mass per year without structured resistance training. You can't supplement your way out of it and you can't cardio your way out of it. You train for it or you lose it.

• VO2 max is the most powerful predictor of cardiovascular mortality in the research — more predictive than smoking, diabetes, or high blood pressure. Most men over 40 don't train it at all.

• Body fat percentage — specifically visceral fat — is what drives disease risk, not the number on the scale. Two men can weigh 90kg and be in completely different health categories.

• Your GP is checking you're not dying. That's different from checking you're actually thriving. The five markers to ask for: fasting insulin, HbA1c, CRP, testosterone (free and total), and Vitamin D.

The last 10lbs can be harder to shift. Here’s why:

• Smaller body = lower calorie needs → deficit shrinks
• Metabolic adaptation → body burns fewer calories than expected
• NEAT drops → less movement without realising (−200–400 kcal/day)
• Hormones shift → ↓ leptin, ↑ hunger, ↓ thyroid/testosterone
• Closer to set point → stronger resistance to fat loss

Follow the steps in this episode if you would like to shift it!
