Alex Flint: Exerising just isn't enough for weight loss

from The Weekend Collective · host Newstalk ZB

It's no secret that as we get older, our metabolism slows down a bit, and staying in shape just gets harder to do - from keeping lean, maintaining muscle, and removing stubborn fat. Ricky Gervais had a tweet about how he's working out everyday now - playing tennis, lifting weights and running. His heart's good, and he trains at a good intensity - but he wonders why he's stil overweight and exhausted? We could just stay in the gym for longer - but not everyone's got enough time in their day for that... so what are the ways we can keep with our fitness? and why's it harder as we get older? Our guest is the founder of BodyTorque Fitness, and knows all about helping people over 40 lose stubborn weight, build lean muscle, and restore energy - Fitness Coach Alex Flint joins Tim Beveridge for Health Hub...  LISTEN ABOVESee omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
