Strength Training 101: The #1 Exercise for Fat Loss, Longevity & Metabolism: ep. 13
Manage episode 502589022 series 3675602
If you want fat loss that actually lasts, better energy, and decades of stronger living, the answer isn’t endless cardio or the latest fitness trend. It’s strength training.
In this episode of The Metabolic Edit, I break down why strength training is the single most powerful tool for your metabolism, hormones, and longevity. You’ll learn how to start without overcomplicating things, what mistakes to avoid, and how to fuel and recover so your workouts actuallychange your body.
We cover:
- Why muscle is the ultimate metabolic booster (burns fat at rest)
- The link between strength and lifespan
- Beginner blueprint: sets, reps, and how to start lifting with confidence
- Post-workout nutrition & electrolytes for recovery and performance
- Myths that hold people back (like “lifting makes women bulky”)
- The #1 mistakes stalling results (program hopping, poor recovery, only doing cardio)
Strength training isn’t just about looking good (though that’s a bonus). It’s about protecting your joints, improving mood and gut health, and adding quality years to your life.
