Stop exercising to burn calories! [Metabolism Series 4 of 5]

from Nutrition Science Daily for Fat Loss (Not Weight Loss), Muscle, Macros, and Metabolism · host Philip Pape | Certified Nutrition Coach, Wits and Weights

We all know workouts burn calories—but how much do they actually contribute to metabolism? The Exercise Activity Thermogenesis (EAT) component of metabolism is often overestimated, especially for fat loss. Find out why cardio alone won’t cut it, and what actually gives you the edge when it comes to long-term metabolism. This is part 4 of a 5-part series on Metabolism this week. We are offering a free Nutrition 101 guide that shows you exactly how to estimate your true, dynamic metabolism to determine what calories and macros you need. ⁠Download your free Nutrition 101 macros guide here.⁠ -- ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Ask a question for the podcast here⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Follow the Wits & Weights podcast⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ for more evidence-based insights on fat loss, muscle building, and sustainable health, where Philip dives deeper into the science behind optimizing your body composition. -- References: Effects of aerobic and/or resistance training on body mass and fat mass in overweight or obese adults
