#376: Why Diets Stop Working After 40

from The FIT40 Podcast · host Bryan Fitzsimmons

DESCRIPTIONIf fat loss feels harder than it used to, you’re not crazy. And you’re definitely not broken. In this episode, I break down exactly why weight loss feels so much more frustrating after 40, from hormones and stress to sleep, daily movement, and calorie balance. We’ll clear up common myths about metabolism, explain why the old “cut carbs and do more cardio” approach stops working, and walk through what actually drives sustainable fat loss at this stage of life — without crash dieting or burning yourself out.FIT40 LINKS✅ Feeling low on energy and out of shape but short on time?👉 Get the FIT40 Starter Kit here and start with short workouts and simple nutrition: https://fit40coaching.com/starterkit✅ Want a clear plan and someone to keep you on track?👉 Let’s talk about your goals and what you need in a Free Discovery Call: https://fit40coaching.com/discoverycallAFFILIATE LINKS:Try Tonal for 30 Days Risk Free: https://tonal.sjv.io/FIT40CONNECT WITH ME ONLINEFacebook: https://www.facebook.com/bryan.fitzsimmonsInstagram: ⁠⁠⁠⁠https://www.instagram.com/coach_fitzz/⁠⁠⁠⁠Tiktok: ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠https://www.tiktok.com/@coach_fitzz?is_from_webapp=1&sender_device=pcYoutube: https://www.youtube.com/@bryan_fit40 This is a public episode.
