#97 - Busting Plateau's

from The Gen Pop Podcast · host Larry Doyle

If the scales haven’t budged in a couple of days and you’re ready to slash calories, we want to slow you down and save you weeks of frustration. We talk about what a real fat loss plateau actually is, what it isn’t, and why the most common “stall” is just noise from water retention, weekends, stress, and inconsistent tracking.We get practical about the metrics that matter for breaking a weight loss plateau: daily weigh-ins to build a trend, weekly averages, photos, and simple reality checks like belt notches and how your clothes fit. We also call out the easy escape hatches people lean on, like blaming sudden muscle gain during a long calorie deficit, and we explain how to audit adherence properly before you change a single thing.When it truly is time to adjust, we show how we decide what to change first based on the person in front of us: steps vs calories, small 10% nudges, and when structured cardio makes more sense than chasing tiny step increases. We also dig into NEAT and why adding lots of cardio can backfire if it makes you move less the rest of the day, plus when a diet break or maintenance phase can restore energy, mindset, and long-term progress.If you want calmer decision-making, clearer data, and a plan that doesn’t swing with every weigh-in, press play. Subscribe, share it with a mate who’s “stuck”, and leave us a review so more people can stop spinning their wheels.Got questions? simply email or dm us with those questionsLarry IG https://www.instagram.com/larry_doyle_coachingDaniel IG https://www.instagram.com/danieldalycoachingWebsite https://www.larrydoylecoaching.ieCoaching with us https://www.larrydoylecoaching.ie/1-1-premium/Email : [email protected]
