Metabolic - The Calorie Myth: Where Your Energy Really Go...

What this episode covers

Join host Julia Cartwright as she dismantles the widespread belief that exercise is your body's primary calorie burner. Discover why 60-75% of your daily energy expenditure happens automatically through your basal metabolic rate—keeping your heart beating, brain firing, and organs functioning—while exercise accounts for just 15-30%. Learn actionable strategies to support your metabolism, build muscle, and work with your body's natural systems instead of against them. Loved this episode?
