Bitesize Biohack 3 Ways to Burn More Fat!

from High Performance Health · host Angela Foster

What if the secret to burning more fat wasn’t a fancy diet or punishing workout, but a few simple daily upgrades you could start today? In this solo Bite Size Biohacks episode, Angela answers your most asked question—how to get leaner and boost fat loss in time for summer. Whether you're looking to shift a little or a lot, she shares exactly how to turn your body into a fat-burning machine—without resorting to extreme measures. From muscle-building strategies to protein timing and the underrated power of NEAT (non-exercise activity thermogenesis), Angela reveals the three core principles that will elevate your metabolism, reshape your physique, and keep your energy levels steady all day long. Expect practical, science-backed tips you can implement immediately—and the mindset shift that will make it sustainable.   KEY TAKEAWAYS: Master NEAT Movement: Non-exercise movement like walking and even fidgeting can boost daily fat burn by up to 20%. Why Muscle is Metabolic Gold: Muscle burns 2–3x more calories than fat—even at rest—making strength training non-negotiable. Protein is a Fat-Burning Accelerator: Protein has a thermic effect up to 30%, helping you burn more calories simply by eating it. Don’t Diet—Build Muscle Instead: Sustainable fat loss comes from increasing lean muscle, not slashing calories or fasting windows. Fuel Your Day with the Right First Meal: A high-protein breakfast stabilises blood sugar, cuts cravings, and boosts morning energy. Strength After 40 is Non-Negotiable: As we age, we lose insulin sensitivity and muscle—especially around menopause—so strength training is crucial.   TIMESTAMPS AND KEY TOPICS: 0:00 – Introduction 1:31 – 3 principles for becoming a fat-burning machine 2:14 – Why simple movement can double your metabolic rate 3:28 – What is NEAT and how it helps fat loss 6:02 – Easy lifestyle habits to boost daily activity 6:39 – Why strength training transforms your metabolism 8:41 – How to start a strength training routine 10:01 – Why protein is essential for fat loss 12:15 – How much protein you really need per meal 13:12 – 3 high-protein breakfast ideas 16:04 – How to get your free health score   VALUABLE RESOURCES Get a free snapshot of your health and personalised report at www.yourtotalhealthcheck.com Join The High Performance Health Community A BIG thank you to our sponsors who make the show possible: Sign up to my Fresh Start Newsletter: Start your week feeling in control with one simple, science-backed step for your hormones, health and longevity—get your free weekly fresh start at angelafoster.me/freshstart   ABOUT THE HOST Angela Foster is an award winning Nutritionist, Health & Performance Coach, Speaker and Host of the High Performance Health podcast.
