Many people claim that they have a slow metabolism and these issues prevent them losing body fat. As you can see in the video below the truth is sometimes a little closer to home and harder to take.
The truth being there is no reason you cannot lose fat except you are eating too much and moving too little.
While no doubt some people have crashed metabolism the reality is that this is not you!
The reason most people do not get the desired results is exactly as the video points out,
-Most people underestimate how much they eat.
-Most people overestimate how much they move and the effect it has.
-Most people are not consistent enough for long enough when they do get things right……yet think that they are!

March 13th -18th (4/6 days measured)
A week of good training as I was back to muscle building in the gym and thus eating at maximal levels below the body fat gaining threshold. I was fairy well controlled on my birthday Sunday and thus avoided waking up Monday having gained any fat…. So all on target!
Diet – Protein – 245g, Carbs – 367g, fat – 71g, calories – 3083, P:32 % C :48% F: 21%
Exercise – 11 Weights sessions and 1 off day
Weight – 73.5kg Body fat – 39mm*
Supplements – Protein shake (max 40g per day), creatine (10g-15g)** and BCAA (8-10g)**
****************************************
*This is my own 10 point self measurement system, it does not correlate to body fat scores. At a guess 40mm – 8%, 50mm – 9.5%, 60mm – 11%, 70mm – 12.5%. I do not take it everyday if looking to gain muscle or maintain as it puts me off wanting to eat more. If on fat loss phase I take it daily. Like any body fat measurement system, as you get to low body fat levels the number become less accurate or reliable.
**Didn’t use consistently / every day.
