I'm a 65 year old male that worked out and did cardio most of my life until about age 50 until back issues arose. About a year ago, I got back into high intensity weight lifting and cardio, mainly walking fast on a treadmill at a steep grade to get into the 'fat burning zone' you talked about. I also decided to do intermittent fasting (a 16/8 hour program), as well as caloric restriction (in my case about 2.200 calories/day). The end result? I have lost only about 10 pounds, however, I've gained 3 inches in my chest and lost about 3 inches in my waist. Obviously, I not only lost a lot of fat, but gained a lot of muscle. My 'fat' clothes are too small in the chest and too big in the waist! I literally feel better than I did when I was 35 or 40 years old. Friends and family constantly compliment me on my changes. Amazing what taking action can do. Thanks for all the science behind the issue, much appreciated!

We can add the fact that high intensity (strength & power) training will increase muscle mass, which in turn will increase the basal metabolic rate, so a more muscular person will burn more calories even when resting. And don't forget that it's a lot easier not to ingest 400 calories (about 1L of soda) than running for an hour to shed it :)
@@bbszabi maybe itll burn 200 more calories at rest which is 2 miles worth of running but it needs like 35000 calories to get there, years of hard work. just go for a run and done
@@geniuz4093 If you think only in terms of calories, you're heading in the wrong direction, mate! I know one thing: since I am doing strength training and my bodyweight went up 25+ kg, I can eat and drink anything, anytime and any amount I am able and I don't get fat. Actually I have a hard time gaining more bodyweight :) More muscle mass = more energy expenditure, either you're resting or moving.
I lost about 30lbs of fat without ever doing any cardio. I do lift weights but I did that while I was fat too. The only thing I did different was eat in a consistent calorie deficit. It’s way easier to eat 100 less calories than it is to burn 100 more calories!
@@Clydedonovn2424 You stop losing weight if you're at "maintenance" - i.e calories consumed per day = calories burned per day. If you start eating more calories than you burn you will gain weight.
@@golfvilla2 1st, fat loss is almost entirely from a calorie deficit. Muscle gain requires stimulus and excess energy to change muscle size. In a calorie deficit (body thinks omg I'm dying!), the body will burn fat and anything else it sees as "excess to survival" which will include muscle. You can influence that by telling your body, "We may be starving, but I need these muscles to not get eaten by the tiger. So eat fat, not muscle." You do that by strength training. It depends on your training experience. Someone who is overfat and new to strength training can lose fat and gain muscle for a period of time as their body adapts to the new stimulus. Past beginner levels, it is no longer possible to be in a calorie deficit and increase muscle mass. But by continuing to strength train all muscles you wish to keep, the body will prioritize burning fat over the muscle. The larger the calorie deficit, the more the body will also burn muscle. Stick to 500-1000 kCal per day deficit (1-2 lbs lost per week). The other part is what you eat. Higher amounts of protein help the body maintain the muscle (made of proteins) mass. Eating 70-100% of your goal weight in lbs, in grams of protein has been shown to be optimal to reduce muscle loss in a calorie deficit and increase muscle mass when trying to build muscle. Roughly 90% is probably optimal, but that can be hard to do in a calorie deficit depending on your intake.
Cutting down my sugar intake was what made the biggest impact for me. I had already been living with a daily caloric deficit, but just cutting out the sweets for a few months took inches off my waist. I was a cappuccino/latte fanatic, and I didn't realize that just a single cup had three times more sugar than what I should be consuming a day. I also used to drizzle honey into my tea.
Sugar wrecks hormones, too. I didn't realize how much hidden sugar is in the Standard American Diet (SAD is such an appropriate acronym for this). I first became aware of the issue watching that documentary Fed Up! But I didn't have the drive to do much about my sugar addiction until I had a child with a gluten and lactose intolerant. They get so sick after consuming those two things, that even at 3 they always ask if something has gluten or dairy in it before they consume something. 😢 American food is making us sick, and no one cares. We stopped spending our money on the cheap crap, and actually feel satiated after meals. So while our grocery budget has increased somewhat with all the gluten free things we purchase, we consume less and have been losing weight without changing anything else about our routine.
Honey is good for you though??? Its natural source of sugar. Nothing bad about it, it doesnt make your sugar in blood go up instantly, like regular sugar.
Another amazing educational video, thank you. I’ve lost over 80 pounds in the last two years, mostly by eating more vegetables (soups, salads) and fruit, and taking in fewer calories (about 1400 a day). I’ve gotten rid of sleep apnea and acid reflux. However, moving more (walking, hiking, swimming, biking, Zumba, calisthenics, gardening, kayaking, skating, cross-country skiing) has been the greater influence in increasing my joy for living every day. (Probably a lot to do with hormones.) Eating less is key, but the physical movement has had more of a positive effect on my mind and soul. Keep the videos coming! Thank you and your team for all of the research and preparation that goes into each one.
@@theanatomylab this video had a really cool shart/table that showed some interesting correlation you alluded to what a full sprint does to the chart data .... But what about the opposite? Can you expand on this chart with regards to fasting?
EDIT 2024: Now down 200 lbs. (495>295 lb. 60%?+ bodyfat to 30% Work in progress). I still stand by my old comment. There are certain methods or shortcuts like carnivore that I've used but those are strictly optional (replaces fiber with healthy animal fat, smaller softer poops instead of omnivore veggie/fruit fiber version. STILL OPTIONAL). The non-negotiables still remain as below. Water. Sleep. Whole foods. Protein. Stress reduction. Bare minimum: walking. Bonus: ANY movement you find fun Ideally/eventually: resistance training You can do it. One day at a time. Don't stress/battle mode the process. Embrace the journey and struggle. You only lose when you never get back on the bandwagon. EDIT: thanks for encouraging comments, will be doing my best to reply to comments asking questions and maybe update this in future. Stuff missing from video: 1. Diet matters 1000% more than exercise. (a cheeseburger will take 5-7+ miles of running to burn off) 1.5* Maximize A) Water (you're not hungry, you're thirsty) B) Sleep (you're not hungry, you're sleepy/tired) C) MINIMIZE stress (you're not hungry, you're angry/lonely/depressed) B) Fiber (stay full, keep pooping) C) Protein (20%+ of protein calories are used to digest protein ITSELF) D) Whole foods 2. Exercise however releases endorphins, influences leptin/ghrelin, normalizing your appetite. (I get hungry after working out but I get full MUCH faster) 3. Muscle building does NOT increase caloric expenditure that much (1 pound of muscle burns less than 10 cal per day or so) 4. Bigger/more efficient muscles however, like cardiovascular system, will let you burn more calories without getting tired/hurt. Like the video said, maximizing caloric burn is what matters for exercise. Low fat vs low carb vs vegan doesn't matter. Additives/processed food does matter. Weight lift vs running vs sports doesn't matter. Total burn matters. Do the exercise that you find most fun, period. Do the whole* food diet that's easiest for you, period. Personal final word of advice from someone 100+ pounds lost and counting: Try skipping dinner, not breakfast. Eat after workouts, not before. Workout twice/day or shove in physical activity anyplace you can. Never underestimate the power of daily walking. Good luck
I'm 72 y.o. woman. I hike (2 miles in 1 hour, forest preserves) bike, up to 25 miles on bike trails, in 2 hours, swim, 45-60 minutes 1/2 to 1 mile, lift weights. I exercise 7 days a week mixing up the activities. Sometimes doing two activities a day... Bike and swim, hike and lift weights... whatever I need that day. Cook from scratch, organic, local farm raised pig/ cow/eggs. I hate breakfast, always have. 10 a.m. works best for me. An egg sandwich or p.b. on toast. Smoothie from frozen fruit and kefir or Greek yogurt. Still have a squishy belly 🥴. At least I am healthy and fit.
I love both the channel and the comments section! At least from what I’ve seen from scrolling, it’s not filled with overly tough people, just people sharing matter of fact thoughts based on facts, what works, and their own experiences. Feels a lot less toxic, and I like it!
I've tried loosing weight, and cutting out high calorie drinks and foods has been what has worked the most for me. Exercise did make a difference, but it was barely noticeable until I got more control over my intake of calories. Cutting down on sugar has been my biggest challenge, and also the thing that was most effective.
I'm curious about sugar because it is a carbohydrate which is what hunger is based on, whereas fat calories don't make you full because they produce no glycogen and the body is trying to run calorie neutral when it comes to carbohydrates. Nor does the body get hungry avoiding fat. If you cut out sugar e.g. replacing soda with water, then the hunger might go elsewhere into seeking bigger portions if you're not listing everything you eat, although fruit juice has more nutritional benefit than soda. I suppose if you're chronically exceeding your glycogen capacity with excess carbohydrate then fat conversion might start. Although I'm sure it's quite hard to do because it feels like eating two christmas dinners! If you're eating 50-100g of fat a day there is not enough calorie room though for all you want carbs. You'll have to go slightly hungry to lose weight. So as far as cutting out high calorie drinks, anything with cream in it or fatty milkshakes and gold top, plus alcohol calories can all be avoided. Drinks where the energy is based on sugar (or starch) will usually displace hunger elsewhere. I'm not sure about protein calories as you need some (usually around 50 grams a day if you're not trying to build muscle, but even a pound of muscle a month is only about 3 grams of protein a day if I remember correctly so no need to gorge on hundreds of grams of the stuff). I think the Durianrider logic is you restock only one tank - the glycogen one, but avoid restocking the fat one by having less than a couple of teaspoons of fat a day (only the fat that expands your variety of foods to something nutritionally complete). So say your exercise is 80:20 carbs to fats, then you'll only eat back just over 80% of your calories, but if you eat fat the body will go thanks anyway I'll store it but what I'm really after is carbohydrate.
@@TimpBizkit I do feel more full after eating fatty foods, and it seems I'm not the only one, but fats come in both healthy and unhealthy forms. I've not regained the weight I lost after I drastically cut down on soda and it has been a year now. I've also not lost all the weight I can, since I still don't live a perfectly healthy life.
@@jamiececilielange5249 don't confuse temporary occupation of the digestive system with glycogen/glucose levels though. And yeah I did eat a boursin cheese spaghetti bolognese which was a bit thick from the excessive fat and took a while to digest. I think calorie for calorie I would have been better with plain spaghetti though - and perhaps some sweet chilli sauce for flavour. And even at that fat is 9 kcal per gram if your only metric is digestive system bulk. How long you can ride a bike on each food before your legs go limp is an interesting metric. Fueling a bike ride with cheese isn't going to be significantly better that just using what's covering my stomach muscles. Jelly beans will go much further calorie for calorie. I think a better metric is time until you are hungry again. And some fats are healthier than others definitely.
@@TimpBizkit Sugar can sometimes leave you wanting for more, so it isn't a simple thing to measure. I think healthy carbs from vegetables are filling, but pure sugar in itself has a shortlived effect on fullness. There are a lot of opinions and (sometimes contradicting) science out there, and I just wanted to share what worked for me. What worked the most was cutting down on soda. Doing more exercise didn't make a noticeable difference until I fixed my calorie intake, and cutting down on fat didn't do much for me.
@@jamiececilielange5249 I have noticed that fat has to go REALLY low (under 20g to get much difference) in order to lose weight without restricting portion size. It's easy to go over with some relatively "healthy" items even certain soups and breads. I think there are also many different measures of hunger, for example, sometimes I get a craving for savoury "umami" flavours, which is quite hard to describe, but separated from salt it has a sort of taste like quorn or those vegan "chicken" pieces, or even meat or steak itself. Perhaps I'm wanting glutamine. I did do an experiment with 300 grams (1200 kcal) of sugar in water because I wanted to know whether it would be filling or whether it would be an easy and ultimately unsatisfying way to eat excess calories. It did keep me full till mid afternoon then I had a 200 kcal skinnylicious soup and felt STUFFED - so 1400 kcal total up to that point. It was a relatively sedentary day - church and to a friend's house. Could I have done better with 7 skinnylicious soups? I don't know but I think it beats cake. I do think sugar has to be properly hydrated for its satiating effect, which actually happens when it is absorbed into the cells, so eating a lot of jelly beans without fluid might not be as filling in the beginning. It's hard to measure "full" though because if the stomach is stuffed with plain lettuce is that "full?" Some diets specialize in low calorie bulk food but even though the stomach is stretching I was still left "wanting", like I was just trying to drink tons of water when hungry, because very little sugar is getting to the cells. I do think with carbohydrate though, the body will want its fill, so eating "half the amount of carbohydrate" will be more psychologically taxing compared to people who report appetite suppressant effects on keto, though am not sure whether it's just the body "forgetting" it's need of carbs - like smoking crack having a similar effect, but it catches up with you eventually. Anyway essay comment over.
You are the best tutor I've ever seen in my life! Your sentences are always clear, concise, and they hit directly in the center. Please never stop doing these videos cos they're a true gift to humanity in general.
I am 47, and I had to rethink of what High Intensity means for me. I loved running 20 years ago, and do high intensity cardio activities. Now I am focusing more on active strength training and retaining muscle mass. Thank you so much for this video!!
@@phi180 30 min of HIIT per week is more than enough to optimize your heart output. Checkout the video on this channel. cardio does not yield long-term benefits but weight training does. All the muscle you add are life-long lasting (up to 60 yr) You can rely entirely on weight training and skip altogether but vice versa is not a viable option. Muscle memory allows your body to get back in shape within a matter 3-4 weeks if you take a long break more than 6 months. But cardio is forgotten by your bodyeven if you take just 1 month break.
As someone who lost a lot of weight, this is a great topic! But yeah- you can talk about fat burning zones, when to eat, what exercise you should do to burn more calories but the most important thing is creating a calorie deficit for a long enough period of time without going crazy with hunger or exhaustion (being in a calorie deficit it taxing). However you do that is the best way for you. All of this other stuff is just smaller considerations that can give you a smaller edge but they may not be ideal for your life choices.
Calories deficit is hell, im so tired most of the time, is suck to see my max bench or deadlift reduced gradually so i can still hit that 8-12 reps range. But fck it, once this 6 packs coming through i be good.
For alot of people i feel they push way to hard in the gym and or diet. They just need to realize taking it easy and just DOING is the answer over a large period of time!
I carry a very low percentage of body fat (between 7%-8%). My resting heart rate is very low. Usually around 48 BPM, but when I sleep it’s extremely low (around 35BPM - 40BPM) Is that all fat at that point? I’d also love to know how many calories that is a minute. This would give me a better depiction of how many calories I burn during a day (just sitting around) But I love that chart. I’ve always know when you’re heavier, you burn more calories resting because your heart beats much harder since it has to work much harder. But I love the breakdown, as it shows which calories are being used for energy. Have a feeling I’m going down the rabbit hole on this channel
The advice at the end is the best advice you can give someone. Being consistent is probably step one. Changing the way your body looks is a long process and you don’t want that process to be one that you don’t enjoy doing. Whatever your workout is, you should enjoy doing it.
The key take away to is; your not burning fat while you exercise. Fat burning happens at rest. Do whatever workout you enjoy and do it consistently. Skip the post workout shakes and snacks, wait to eat, your body will take from your fats to replenish. When you do eat avoid simple carbs, eat high in fibre, protein and natural healthy fats. And by all means DO NOT EAT AT NIGHT (I added that 😉).
This is very good advice but I definitely wouldn’t “skip the shake” after a workout. Get your protein powder in you pretty shortly after you lift. And I mean protein powder and water. Not all that junk in an unhealthy shake
That was my key to losing weight..I stopped eating past 8pm I cut back on all sugar and I walk everyday for 30 minutes at a bridal pace.. I'm now a healthy 150 lbs.. my blood pressure is back to normal
It's calories guys sorry to break it to you! You can eat up until midnight and still loose wieght as long as your under your maintenance requirements for calories! 100% research it!
@@fredwilliams7893 if you keep eating all day, till midnigh, your body will consume the carbs and fats freshly ingested and your isuline resistance will increas and you will constantly feel hungry. Fasting will help you lose stored fat.
im so glad that u finished this off by talking about consistency, almost thought u were gonna skip past that but its arguably the most important thing for literally just health in general, if you wanna look good and feel good and literally just be happier, you need to consistently exercise, even in zone 2 or less intense than even that
@@stevethea5250 the type of exertion you can keep up for hours. As he mentioned in the video, you should still be able to keep up a conversation. However it still isn't a walk in the park.
Honestly when I'm listening to lectures and when it comes to nos I tend to feel sleepy but with u sir I don't feel sleepy at all. U r concise, clear and on point so it's not so boring. Thank u. Such a talent. God bless u sir. Thanks for this channel
Walking on the treadmill at 3.2 mph for 1 hour 5 days a week for 8 months , is mostly responsible for my weight at 295 down to 198 without very hard recovery and risk of injury.
@@Liam021 for the same reason I use water aerobics as my primary exercise to maintain a healthy weight. Easy on the joints, less damage to repair after workout. Making recovery a lot more manageable.
Totally agree! I started my weight loss journey by simply doing IF and walking. So skip breakfast ( which means some caloric restriction) and walk 1 hour a day on top of my daily walk commute. So I walk 10km a day approximately. And the weight has slowly shed off! To date I’ve lost 5kg! From 90 - 85. It’s easy and i intend to continue
Me too..I walk 2 miles a day at 3.5 mph and I keep my heart rate between 109 to 132 rpm .I've lost 20 pounds on 3 months and I'm back to my normal healthy bmi weight and my blood pressure is back to normal .I also drink apple cider vinegar and half a lemon in my water daily and I do 18/6 intermittent fasting..
Great vid. Once a big guy, I now am a body builder. Started out at the age of 43! A tip for people struggling to get into sports: think out of the box. There is other activities that burn lots of calories too. Things for example like gardening or playing drums (rock and metal sure do burn fat, I know! I play drums since a few years as a partial alternative to cardio training).
Pro tip: An even faster way to prioritize burning fat calories over carb/glucose calories during exercise, is to do high intensity cardio while fasted. E.g. if you haven't eaten for at least 12 hours, you already have very low levels of stored glucose. Then you'll be burning a much higher % of fat cals during your high intensity session
This may work with cardio but I’ve tried to do this with high intensity weightlifting and let’s just say I was taking a nap in my car about half way through the workout 😂.
@@watersheep6590 for sure bro, we need that sugar for power and strength. And cardio, even if it’s moderate or low intensity fasted (on the safe side), will see results
I reckon the fat burning zone is the exercise zone in which you enjoy exercising the most, and are most likely to consistently exercise. Equally important is not suffering extreme exhaustion, which may cause you to avoid your exercise.
@@brulsmurfeveryone is different and not everyone will be satisfied with the same thing 🤷🏼♀️ You do you For example, I came here because I just found out I'm pregnant, went to the doctor and found out how much weight I've gained in the past year (my body fat, not pregnancy). So I'm looking for ways to lose some body fat to be healthy but I can't do extreme exercise because of the baby. So I can only do that low impact exercise and with my asthma I could never exercise too hard anyway. So I do me, you do you 😉
You are 100% on this! For people who want to lose significant amounts of weight, what zone you are in matters a lot less than getting in the effort, plus adjusting diet. I started running 2.5 months ago. First month and a half I didn't even look at the scale or adjust my food. Because I wanted to see if I could get myself addicted to running. I did, found I'd lost about 5lbs and then consulted a nutritionist. In the past month I've now lost another 12lbs, so down 17 of the original 45-50 I want to lose. Most importantly I'm running three days per week and fairly long walks another 2-3 days. Instead of dieting to lose weight I'm dieting to get better at running. (Which of course means losing weight but there is a fundamental difference in the motivation.) In my running I know I'm in zone 3-4 or even 5 a lot of the time and my walking is zone 2. But it's more about sustainability than fat burning. I've proven that I can't run even 4 times a week without burning out very quickly. So walking at zone 2 gets me some extra calories burned, kilometers covered, and more importantly keeps my brain in the mentality that exercise is a daily thing except for 1-2 rest days for recovery.
@@CorwinFound I am doing almost the identical same, with walking and running. I've found that eating plenty of fruit is giving me the most energy for running, as well as drinking lots of water.
At the end of the day, it’s comes to how much Kcal you burn compared to how much you intake. Of course there is more to it such as macro and micro nutrients and how you train yourself, weights/cardio or both, which is the best way to do it! You should be eating a bit less than how much your supposed to eat for your weight, age, sex and height. Subtract about 200-500 kcal from that number and boom! Good luck to everyone on their goals! Remember, losing weight is not a race, it’s a marathon. It’s about the big picture. Enjoy the progress even if it’s a little. You’ll end up making mistakes but stay strong and keep going and most importantly learn from it! Also love the video!!
As an individual who has undergone significant weight loss, I believe this topic is of great importance. While discussions on fat-burning zones, ideal meal times, and calorie-burning exercises are informative, the most crucial factor is to maintain a calorie deficit for a prolonged period without experiencing excessive hunger or exhaustion.. Speaking of weight loss, I personally had success with SlimSparks.
I personally lost 66 lbs (30 kg) in 8 months without losing any muscle and strength. I followed a high fat, low carb diet and this worked extremely well for me. Losing fat and keeping it of is incredibly easy if you know what you’re doing 🙂
@@bstevermer9293 What’s up bruv, what I basically did was a diet called “cyclical high fat” diet. I would eat high protein, high fat, low carb diet for 5 days followed by a high carb day, low fat day. The high carb day is essential during high fat, low carb diets to keep your metabolism up, reset your leptin receptors and replenish depleted muscle glycogen stores to keep burning body fat. I also went to the gym 5x a week, did cardio 2x a week (1x HIIT and 1x Steady state), drank a lot of water (2.5-3 liters a day) and sleep well. I gave 100% because my goal was to lose as much body fat as possible as fast as possible. My macronutrients were around: Protein: 250 grams = 1000 calories Healthy fats: 125 grams = 1125 calories Carbs: 0 grams = 0 calories Total: 2125 calories The only carbs I eat during weight loss are from vegetables, but I don’t count them in my caloric intake. Hope this helps. Feel free to ask any further questions 💪🏼
Nice lecture. Good luck for everyone trying to loose weight. Don’t forget that by far the most influential factor is still what and how much food goes by your lips. And exercising can help you regulate this to an extent.
“How much food” re write that with “qualify of food” it’s very hard to over eat clean Whole Foods as it’s easy to over eat ultra processed foods. It’s not the amount necessarily it’s more or less the quality
I don't say this to dudes very often (actually, I never do), but I like this guy. He just comes across so pleasant and informed, these videos are extremely easy on the ears and brain!
This video brings everything I’ve learned full circle. I went through physical therapy for almost a year for an injury to my left IT band. Since I “graduated” I’ve been working in tandem with my PT as well as independently in the gym. I chose not to get hooked up with an expensive trainer since I’m just starting back to a full workout after several years out of the gym. I used to run up to 8 miles a day, was in great shape and then started working as a nurse in dialysis. Those 16 to 18 hr days kept me out of the gym, but also kept me slender and fit. Your break down and more in-depth info has truly made it much easier to understand what was being taught to me during my recovery. I wish they could explain it in as much detail as you do! This is why I LOVE these videos!!!!😊
US is such a weird country. Truckers are not allowed to work more than 12 hours because it is dangerous if they get tired and lose focus. but health care personnel are allowed to work 18h, people that literary hold other peoples lives in their hands? I hope I don't get sick or injured next time I visit the US, getting a doctor or nurse on the 18'th hour scares the shit out of me.
@@incognito7843 Spot on, mate. 18hrs are nothing from stories I've heard. Have heard people put on 48hr shifts, because of demands on them (although rules are slowly getting better). According to the CDC, if you're awake for 24hrs, you're equivalent to being legally drunk. If any doc worked their shift with 0.10% blood alcohol, obviously that would be a serious concern, yet people hardly bat an eye to sleep deprivation.
Massive contribution! The explanation of the fat storage/ usage ratio explains the base of most fitness- nutrition models of the last ten years! Just no dogma or belief systems. Thank you very much. 🙏
Tl;Dr: go for HIIT to maximize fat loss. The fat burning zone, Zone 2 (strenuous but you can sustain a conversation) burns the most fat percentage, but the greatest fat loss depends on the total calories burned. Volume matters more (I.e. account for time). It’s important to strength train along with doing cardio because the post workout recovery stimulates the efficiency of your mitochondria at burning fat (this last time requires a second watch on the biological explanation)
TL;DR basically do a balance of them all! HIIT won't burn many calories because you can't keep it up for more than a few minutes. It will help keep you in good cardiovascular health though. Walking briskly will burn the most fat proportionally. Cardio also helps build cardiovascular health, though doing too much of it will burn muscle as well.
@@jameslafountain Oh yeah, that's what I do. I can't walk that many hours on roadside anyway because of repetitive strain. On trails though, you get all sorts of variability. I can jog down hills and slow down on ascents to keep my perceived effort decent. I'm in the Pacific Northwest so I aught to be doing more of it than I am. I do bike to work at least
This is the most concise video about losing fat I've seen. Thank you for packing in the data and also being real about its significance vs calories in calories out!
Great video - I especially like that you emphasized finding an exercise mode you enjoy so you can be consistent. That seems to be the downfall of many folks, especially when looking at staying fit into older age (maintaining consistency over decades is a real challenge if you hate the exercises you've chosen). The only thing I was hoping to see you include that didn't get mentioned was the weight loss benefits of resistance training. If you run/walk, you burn calories while you're exercising, then for a very short period of time afterward, as you mentioned. But then your body returns to its relatively low base metabolism for the rest of the day. If you add lean muscle mass, that muscles tissue is burning additional fat around the clock, so even when you're at rest, you're burning more calories due to the additional muscle mass - which can contribute to significantly more fat loss. Who's interested in losing weight that wouldn't want to burn more fat while resting? And the improved muscle tone also makes what fat you do have look less "baggy", as a bonus. Would love to see a video encouraging safe and effective modes of resistance training for fat loss as well as improved strength/bone density/mobility as we move into our older years.
I just found your channel. It's by far the best information I have found so far on weight. The body you use to show fat in the body was definitely an eye opener for me. You really only see your outside and never the inside. It shows how bad it really is. Thank you so much for sharing this information and working hard to show us that
CALORIE DEFICIT! Eat less, move/exercise more. Don’t go on complicated, weird diets. Can’t target where you lose fat either. Doing a thousand crunches won’t help you get a six pack if your body fat % is too high.
@@imagineifyouwereaworm I mean if you really wanna get technical, then yeah. Obviously eating lower calorie foods will help satiate your hunger while keeping your calorie intake lower.
you cant target where to lose fat, the body first depletes glucogen in the liver, then starts digesting visceral fat and THEN sends signals to the adiposytes to release the fat stored there, thats why is so difficult to lose subdermal fat
I do weight training 5-6 days a week. I’m in a calorie deficit with super high protein high fat and low carbs. My cardio is I essentially walk as fast as I can without ever running for one hour. (5 days a week)It’s usually 4.2-4.5 miles. I’ve lost 30 pounds in 12 weeks and packed on so much muscle and look super lean. I hear people saying that they find this diet very difficult but it hasn’t been that hard for me
@@drewnlmbsimple google search told me -500 calories from your usual intake is a good middle ground. There’s also a calculator online that tells you the calories needed to maintain a weight so theoretically you could calculate the calories needed for your ideal weight and make that amount your intake limit. You’d have to adjust it to your activity level but it’s a good start
@@drewnlmbif ur more active then multiply ur body weight in lbs by 12 if ur not active then by 11 but if u are kinda near the athlete version then by 13 it gives u a very close calorie to maintain then minus it by 200-600 depending on how strong of a deficit u want
I appreciate your work. Thank you. I discovered your channel a couple of years ago when I started taking some science courses at my local community college. I’m an elderly student (61yr s) and I have found the need for information to add to my textbook reading. Your teaching is a great resource.
Yes! The most important thing about exercising is finding something you like doing so you regularly and consistently do it. It's better to do anything 4 times a week than begrudgingly doing something, get sore or miserable, and only go every 2 weeks.

Excellent explanation of metabolism and the practical summary at the end is the key. Ultimately, you have to find a type of exercise that you can enjoy enough to engage in consistently in order reap any fat burning benefits.
We have a specific video on the placenta, as well as some videos from a few years ago on the female reproductive cycle, and some TH-cam shorts on pregnancy.
I love your explanation on anything happening in the body. This was a great video explaining the huge mystery of fat burning. Could you please detail burning fat regarding aging. It has never been more difficult than at age 65.
I loved this! I’ve been hiking 2 miles everyday and I love the suggestion to get really good and consistent with an exercise you enjoy and then find creative ways to increase the intensity Thanks so much!
Great informative video! One thing extremely important is that you can work more frequent and longer on zone 2 compare to higher zones, it's less stressful to your body meaning you'll need less time to recover, for example almost anyone can work 2 hours of zone 2 section 5 to even 6 days a week, but no one can do 3 days a week of high intensity section without overtraining ideally if you workout 4 to 5 days a week do 3 low intensity sections and 1 high intensity that way you can keep doing that for months without getting the risk of overtraining.
I think an interesting bit to add is about brown fat and subcutaneous fat. Cold showers are an excellent "lazy" way of letting your fat levels down. If you regularly expose yourself to cold water (showers or baths) then you're body will utilize it's hidden brown fat storage. In effect your body has to work harder to burn fat because you're colder. And it's chuffing amazing!
This is true, but you need to be careful with how you do it. I suggest watching this video th-cam.com/video/GqPGXG5TlZw/w-d-xo.html&ab_channel=AndrewHuberman before starting a cold exposure treatment.
Has anyone ever measured how much that is? Especially with a cold shower and if you dry yourself off, I'm sceptical of that using up a lot of energy. Also it might increase hunger more than it uses up fat. Maybe if you are constantly cold, e.g. don't wear jackets in winter, that would add up.
@@MrCmon113 it's a good point, I'm not sure either. The only thing I can say is, try it for yourself and see. Do cold showers for a month a long with your regular exercise routine and see if it makes a difference.
@@MrCmon113 It definitely increases metabolism from what I've experienced, because once I warm up I can go many hours without feeling cold enough to need a sweater in the winter. The constant cold doesn't do it though, you just get hypothermic and it doesn't seem to do anything. It has to be a rapid change, because it's related to the dive reflex and triggering your nervous system. I would only recommend it to people who are younger and mildly overweight though, because it doesn't replace actual exercise, just gives a small psychological/catecholamine boost to it.
This has to be one thee most honest , factual and informative videos on weight loss on this platform. I have learned ALOT and will use this information for my fitness goals! Thank you
Hope it works for you. I became more motivated after watching their video on what the heart goes through during exercise, I just found it really interesting how the heart can get so much stronger. Also having a fitbit helped. It provides data and allowed me to track improvements after each workout (I'm a bit of a numbers geek).
There actually could be a potential benefit to exercising at a higher intensity when it comes to weight training. Since the greater the percentage of your body that is made up of muscle as apposed to fat the greater the amount of calories that you will burn while at rest or any other activity.
I see what you're saying but form is more important when it comes to weight training. If you want to do cardio then you do it while you're not weightlifting. This is because fatigue will decrease form. it's important to have different forms of exercise
I’m laughing because I did a lower heart rate cardio exercise yesterday morning. I look at my fit bit and I burned 245 calories in the ~40 min exercise. I just checked my progress for today after the New Years festivities of line dancing for the same amount of time and I burned a whopping 323 calories. And I wanted to keep going but we had leave☹️. Looks like I’m dancing my 25lbs of baby weight off this year!! Stay focused everyone, and Happy New Year 🥳
It would be great to see a follow up on this video covering ketosis. This is a critical component of the fat-burning conversation and would have loved to see this covered here. Great work anyway and now you have an idea for another video.
I have the same question! How do these numbers change (if at all) when in ketosis? Do we burn ketones in lieu of carbohydrates, and does this change the "fat burning percentage" in the chart? As he mentioned, overall calories are the most important factor, but I'm very curious what the physiology looks like in keto related to these numbers/topic.
I used to run a lot of miles plus run races like half marathon.then I got arthritis in my hip.I just got hip surgery last march. Still walking up 10’000 steps some days thank you for this video.I eat a high protein like 4 to 5 egg after my 20 hr fast
I just finished Post Secondary and have finally found myself gaining that “freshmen 15” weight, more like 20 in my case. I was very active throughout high-school and was more concerned with my bodies abilities than it’s aesthetic. I understand that because I have been less active that weight gain is inevitable, but I have been struggling with incorporating exercise in my daily routine, and sticking with it. Mostly because I don’t have enough energy after my shifts to commit to a high intensity workout. I feel like I have finally figured out what I have been doing wrong, watching this video! Back in high-school I participated in sport practices in the morning, and I always signed up for phys-ed on top of that. Looking back I would never worked out heard enough to “look bad” in my next class. I don’t need to push myself to the breaking point in order to see results. I feel as though this Stage Two zone for me, might be the very thing that I am able to commit to consistently! And therefore, I am hopeful to actually see results and feel like myself again!
If you still take classes, you could try jogging between them, or the classes and your dorm. Other than that, getting up earlier to do a short workout in the morning could work too.
Thanks Jonathan! I've really enjoyed watching your videos and learning so much about the human body. You deliver content clearly and can tell you are passionate about it! The debunking of myths definitely helps clear up several things as there is a lot of conflicting information out there.
Calorie deficit works well for me to lose fat, I make sure the calories are nutritious and not empty , I exercise lightly as well but more for my flexibility and my mood 😊
The problem with the higher intensity workouts are that you generally crave post workout due to your body seeking to replenish the carbs. If you lower the intensity to zone 2, you are less likely to have strong cravings post workout and as such have a reduced calorie intake. For those that are unfit, a brisk walk often get them into zone 2 relatively easily and can be maintained for longer periods.
I'm 70 now but twice in my life I started working out, following pretty much what you describe here, to get into better shape and over the course of a year or so I dropped down to my ideal weight, had added muscle mass, and was feeling great. Then, in both cases, I started feeling tired and washed out. I had no energy at all and eventually quit working out. It wasn't until years later that I had the thought that I might not have been eating enough and my body had started burning muscle to power itself. Do you think that could have been what happened?
@@chandrakantmarale That's not me but a model I photographed 20 years ago. I was a glamour photographer. That shot is actually a Polaroid to check lighting.
@@beecee921 My whole exercise routine was based on not overdoing it except for the occasional pushing myself into anaerobic/all out sessions of a few minutes. Back in college in the '70s I took classes on Sports Science. It might have been the first of its kind in the US. It was only a few semesters. I also went by what author Covert Bailey wrote in his popular book at the time 'Fit or Fat'. At 45 I was in the best shape of my life and could do things like 500 ab crunches with ease. This just 3 months starting out and having trouble doing 10 of them.
I’ve been running, but all I got was well beside having buff legs I had a lot of intense and acute pain in my bones and joints as well as feeling my lungs were having a heavier workout than my legs. I came to the conclusion that dancing is by far the best method of fullbody exercise for my body type.
I would love to see a follow up video to this focusing on how certain types of exercises effect post exercise testosterone production and the relationship between high levels of testosterone and greater fat burning efficiency. IE. weight bearing exercises vs endurance cardio vs sprints, etc. and how each impacts the recovery processes and resulting hormone adjustments to meet progressive load demand. Thank you for all the great info!
Nice Video! #1 exercise to burn fat is tracking calories. Having an understanding of how many calories your body burns on a day to day basis (with working out included) will give you the precise information to make decisions on what to eat and how much of it. This process will never fail. How do you figure out your maintenance calories? With a daily morning weigh in on a scale that you cross examine with calories consumed the day before. Take 7 day weigh in averages, and compare your progress weekly. You will quickly figure out your calorie number.
I did a study in college about this and found that 20 minutes of Hiit works best for me with lifting. Lost the most fat the fastest and I hit all zones especially the “fat burning zone”. There are a bunch of other factors but I found this very effective.
Could you do a video on how stress & adrenaline affects the body. As a truck driver with a lot of stress & at times a lot of adrenaline. Thanks Love the videos. Happy New Year to all.
They already made a video on that, look up your body under stress and you’ll find it Unfortunately I can’t post a link because youtube thinks i am a spam bot
I feel like this video really laid down the truth about exercise and burning fat! I loved the time you spent going over the progressive exercise intensity chart! Thank you so much !
Stay caloric deficit, upto 500 kcl, eat high protein, lift weights for muscle strengthening muscle endurance and muscle gains, add low intensity cardio thrice weekly for toning of your body.
What about fasting, to lose fat, and exercising to feel great? The one or two meals a day, to lower insulin resistance and get out of storage mode, appears to be a sustainable strategy as opposed to an exercise routine to lose weight?
I've found what works best for my weight loss clients is to have them build up to completing a 2 mile run (treadmill, track or elliptical) at whatever pace they can manage. once they're comfortable at a given pace, we bring it back down to one mile at a higher speed. once they are comfortable at this new speed, we increase the distance at that speed. rinse and repeat until ripped
Thank you for sharing this informative video! It's truly enlightening to understand the science behind fat burning and how to approach it effectively. The breakdown of myths and clear explanation of fat utilization during different exercise intensities were particularly insightful. I appreciate the emphasis on overall calorie expenditure and finding enjoyable exercise routines. Thanks again for empowering us with knowledge to achieve our fitness goals!
I REALLY enjoy your videos. You explain things so that they are easily understood by someone like me, who's biology education consists of what I learned in high school 40 years ago, and what I retained by helping my kids study while THEY were in high school. Thank you for all you do!
Ive struggled with weight most of my life but becoming a keen cyclist has certainly helped change me. 35 now and amongst my circle of friends i’ve gone from the least fit to the most fit over the past 5 years. Best part is they are all starting to go grey and getting dad bods while I have grown a 2 ft mane of blond hair and while I’ll always have stomach jiggle I cut a good luck these days. The Viking biker they call me :)
Actually, new studied are showing you CAN target fat in specific areas. New studies show that working out parts of the body can release fat cells in that area to used and burned by the body, therefore burning fat in one place. However, more research needs to be done because its a very new study but the research is there and it is possible. The best way to do this: Work out the area of body you want the fat cells to activate in, whether its chest, arms, legs, etc. Then after, do cardio to BURN the fat cells that have been released.
I appreciate your programming. I wish it was available at university 45 years ago. What effect does exercise, especially strenuous exercise have on the elderly, babyboomers 65 or 70 years , even older?
It increases bone-density and builds muscle as it does for everybody, though these things become more important the older we get. Of course the older we get the less muslce our bodies will build and hold on to. However as far as I know it has been shown that you can still reach your potential at a higher age, even if you've never worked out before. So basically you can still become the fittest and strongest 70 year old version of yourself without having prior training-experience, you just take a bit more time to get there. Also Type II muscle-fibers are more affected by the aging process and those are also the ones that respond the most to high-intensity exercise like weight-training. They are also vital in keeping us healthy and safe, since they can output a lot of power really fast, which is important when you for instance take a fall or have to brace yourself to avoid injury. My grandfather has told me how much he appreciates his weight-training ever since he noticed that has never been seriously injured in his old age even whilst staying active while less active friends of his have had to go the hospitals from seemingly minor falls and such. If you want to know what high-intensity exercise can do for you, check out the video titled "Longevity - A Meme Experience" by Jack PGM. There are a few clips in there with people upwards of 70 years old lifting weights that are well beyond what the average young person can handle. Anyway, hope that helps. :)
For a 65-70+ year old who hasn't exercised regularly in his earlier years, starting 'STRENUOUS' exercise is simply a bad idea. In sharp contrast, starting with mild regular exercise, is a great idea. There are three pillars of physical well-being that should be adressed; 1. cardiovascular performace (conditioning), 2. strength, 3. mobility . If you have no medical contraindications, just start now, probably it is the best thing one can do. But beware very much trying to do too much too fast !!! - that's how injuries happen. You have time. Take little steps forward. Make sure you are comfortable with increases that you make. With age, the body needs more time to regenerate and adapt - but if you are patient, it will! - and over time you will make huge progress.
When I was a personal trainer I had the great pleasure of being regularly in the gym with a former Mr Universe. He was in his 80's and still training most days and doing quite heavy weights. He was as fit as a fiddle. His motto: use it or lose it. Everyone can become fitter one way or another. Swimming is a great all round exercise for older people. It takes pressure off joints, exercises muscles, heart and lungs and builds and tones. Walking will work for bone density, then I corporate some basic weights. The goal is health, the weight loss will follow 😄 BTW, I'm 66.
Brilliant. I have put on over 30kg in the last 3 years. Today I have signed up for a fitness program and this video has arrived with perfect timing. Thank you and blessings to you for a wonderful new year xxx
Good luck to you, Dorcas! I started walking a couple of months ago in anticipation of our cold winter weather. I learned which layers were most effective in keeping the wind and cold out without making me feel as if I were in a sauna. I'm a 58-year-old woman who has consistently gained and plateaued. I used to be a marathoner but those days are behind me. This video helped me to understand that staying in Zone 2 isn't something to be ashamed of, but a very effective way to slowly lose weight. Again, good luck in 2023!
The one thing I love about this channel is integration of real science and studies in each argument. Mostly on all the channels there are biased or just magazine stuff. There can be more improvements but...this is an appreciation comment.
Love your content. What about disabled people like me who have mobility issues and are extremely limited in our ability to move/exercise or achieve any kind of fitness? Would love to see a video representing those of us who are physically challenged. Happy New Year!
@@YourCapyFrenBigly_3DPipes1999 No, plus I live out of the country, so American resources are not at my disposal. I'm in a very remote area with few services, not even a pool or a gym. Is there a solely nutritional possibility, or only an exercise regimen?
@@PapaPeregrine oh I see. Well there's one odd method you might like, called Oxycising. You can look up the website and TH-cam channel. They have low impact versions for people of all mobility levels. It's basically just more organized breathing exercises that supposedly help the body burn more fat and be more fit. I'm not sure if it works or not but it well may. I've been meaning to give it a try but every time I start I drop off lol. I would like to give it a longer try and see if it makes a noticeable difference for me.
Good video. I always wondered how accurate your videos were as none were in my expertise so always just took your word for it and enjoyed the videos but now that one is in my expertise it’s good to know that I can really trust the quality of the rest. The simplifications were well handled and some great info. Another great video
I dont do much cardio, but i do strength training and weightlifting 4x a week, with a mostly-controlled diet and im in the best shape of my life with no sign of slowing down. May introduce more cardio to see what happens. Probably 16-18% body fat, 6ft 200 pound male.
Zone 3, 4 or 5 can make you overeating, because the excercise will make you very hungry, defeating the purpose. It's also psycological, overtraining and tiredness could make your motivation low.
Thank you both for educating, as well as showing us 'FACTS' about the human body throughout 2022. I definitely learned so very much. 👍 😃 I'm wishing you both, as well as anyone else who is involved in producing these videos (editing, production, etc.) a very HAPPY NEW YEAR! Let's all share more, learn more, & listen more, etc. God bless everyone in 2023. 😃 👍 ✅ ✝️ 🇺🇲
Yup a lot of girls diet. Then go back to blimps. You have to fast, calorie deficit and EXERCISE. Resistance training to build muscle. When you build the muscle, then after dieting (calorie deficit), you'll be fine going back to your regular diet. You have to have proper amount of muscle
This all great and very informative. Could you make a video on the relationship between nutrition and exercise for fat loss. It would be interesting to see any relationships from a physiological and anatomical scope. Thanks so much again.
Hey Jonathan, many thanks for this very insightful video! If you wouldn’t mind, please could you do a video on how the human body goes into starvation mode and how this then leads to storing extra body fat? Many thanks!
Yeah balance is key. For aerobic exercise, find something fun that you enjoy. Basketball, tennis, mountain biking, skateboarding... whatever floats your boat. If you enjoy it, you'll keep doing it. Then for an easy extra fat burn, lift some weights / do some push-ups a couple of times a week. Nothing crazy, just for 10 mins. This is enough to cause the muscles to repair. The body uses some fat to build and repair muscle.
The thing that always gets me though, is when I read about how the body will adjust its metabolic rate to the intensity/frequency of exercise and caloric intake. So say I eat less, exercise more…Works out fine for awhile, but my body adjusts and now I have to lower my intake even further, and exercise more, thus producing diminished returns on my efforts…How do we compensate for that??
If you eat so little your body reduces its metabolic rate to compensate you're in a serious deficit, i.e not healthy. Even pro-bodybuilders only go there for a few months so long as it's effective. Check out some of the videos Mike Israetel did on dieting and weight/fat-loss. He lays it out in a really comprehensive way and what rate of weight-loss you should go for over x-amount of time.
I've only been in shape maybe 3 times in my life, between high school sports, the military, and one year where I took P90X serious. Sadly, those habits never stuck and I always ended up burning myself out. Up to the start of 2022, I got up to 265 lbs, where my nominal weight should really be about 190 lbs. Some time into the year, I got depressed and started eating less. I noticed I would go a day without eating at times. I also noticed that my weight was dropping. I decided to turn my depression into energy by tracking it and doing some data science. I started tracking all my calories taken in and my weight. I did a bit of analysis and noticed that my equilibrium point was at about 2,500 calories. I even added a few binge eating days to make sure the data was correct. This is with me sitting down a lot, playing video games, and watching movies. Not much exercise at all per day. In about 3 months, I dropped down from 265 to 240 lbs, purely from tracking my caloric intake and keeping it below 2,200 calories as a policy. For the past 2 months, the weight loss has been pretty constant at a rate of about 0.2 lbs per day. I've found that my mind is more clear, I feel more light and nimble, I feel like I have more energy, and I can easily run up and down stairs without issue. I've also found that this is the easiest diet to maintain, especially after getting used to eating less. I've heard all the myths, all the fat burning routines, all the diets. It literally boils down to caloric balance. I can eat donuts every day as long as my calories stay below the threshold, and my body still sheds the lbs. I just eat what I crave and plan out my meals on a day-to-day basis, keeping mental notes of calories per servings of items I have memorized, and track the time and portion that I ate, like a check book. It's amazing how simple it actually is. At some point, I want to add exercise, but for now it's working like a charm without it.
Yep. My lowest weight ever I only achieved after a full year of anxiety and depression, my appetite was my most visible symptom for whoever paid attention. Prior to this, I tried for at least a decade to achieve a weight that's 3pounds over my current weight, imagine that. I wouldn't wish anyone to lose weight this way, but some people call me lucky 🤷♀️
Eating donuts might give you the calories you need but won't give you the required macro nutrition your body needs which can make you unhealthy even if you have lesser weight
@@architmahatorollno.332 Completely missed the point of what they were saying. There is a lot of bad information out there that will make you believe the only way to get lean is to eat healthy whole foods. Of course those are the best foods for our overall health, but when it comes to losing weight whole foods are not the only thing you are allowed to eat when trying to lose weight.

Complaining also burns calories

It takes a fool to see it that way.

I'm a 65 year old male that worked out and did cardio most of my life until about age 50 until back issues arose. About a year ago, I got back into high intensity weight lifting and cardio, mainly walking fast on a treadmill at a steep grade to get into the 'fat burning zone' you talked about. I also decided to do intermittent fasting (a 16/8 hour program), as well as caloric restriction (in my case about 2.200 calories/day). The end result? I have lost only about 10 pounds, however, I've gained 3 inches in my chest and lost about 3 inches in my waist. Obviously, I not only lost a lot of fat, but gained a lot of muscle. My 'fat' clothes are too small in the chest and too big in the waist! I literally feel better than I did when I was 35 or 40 years old. Friends and family constantly compliment me on my changes. Amazing what taking action can do. Thanks for all the science behind the issue, much appreciated!

No old man here!!!
Understanding the fat-burning zone was a game-changer. The Fun Fit Book explained it so well and it made a huge difference.
What book !
We can add the fact that high intensity (strength & power) training will increase muscle mass, which in turn will increase the basal metabolic rate, so a more muscular person will burn more calories even when resting. And don't forget that it's a lot easier not to ingest 400 calories (about 1L of soda) than running for an hour to shed it :)
but ive heard that the increased basal metabolic rate by muscle is really insignificanf and wont help in losing fat at a quicker pace noticeable
@@geniuz4093 If you gain 40 lb of muscle, believe me, it will
@@bbszabi maybe itll burn 200 more calories at rest which is 2 miles worth of running but it needs like 35000 calories to get there, years of hard work. just go for a run and done
@@geniuz4093 If you think only in terms of calories, you're heading in the wrong direction, mate! I know one thing: since I am doing strength training and my bodyweight went up 25+ kg, I can eat and drink anything, anytime and any amount I am able and I don't get fat. Actually I have a hard time gaining more bodyweight :) More muscle mass = more energy expenditure, either you're resting or moving.
@@bbszabi I am eating lot n gaining lot.. but dono how to reduce:(
I lost about 30lbs of fat without ever doing any cardio. I do lift weights but I did that while I was fat too. The only thing I did different was eat in a consistent calorie deficit. It’s way easier to eat 100 less calories than it is to burn 100 more calories!
Wow
What happened when u stopped being in deficit?
@@Clydedonovn2424 You stop losing weight if you're at "maintenance" - i.e calories consumed per day = calories burned per day. If you start eating more calories than you burn you will gain weight.
How do you know your burning fat and not muscle?
@@golfvilla2 1st, fat loss is almost entirely from a calorie deficit. Muscle gain requires stimulus and excess energy to change muscle size. In a calorie deficit (body thinks omg I'm dying!), the body will burn fat and anything else it sees as "excess to survival" which will include muscle. You can influence that by telling your body, "We may be starving, but I need these muscles to not get eaten by the tiger. So eat fat, not muscle." You do that by strength training.
It depends on your training experience. Someone who is overfat and new to strength training can lose fat and gain muscle for a period of time as their body adapts to the new stimulus. Past beginner levels, it is no longer possible to be in a calorie deficit and increase muscle mass. But by continuing to strength train all muscles you wish to keep, the body will prioritize burning fat over the muscle. The larger the calorie deficit, the more the body will also burn muscle. Stick to 500-1000 kCal per day deficit (1-2 lbs lost per week).
The other part is what you eat. Higher amounts of protein help the body maintain the muscle (made of proteins) mass. Eating 70-100% of your goal weight in lbs, in grams of protein has been shown to be optimal to reduce muscle loss in a calorie deficit and increase muscle mass when trying to build muscle. Roughly 90% is probably optimal, but that can be hard to do in a calorie deficit depending on your intake.
Cutting down my sugar intake was what made the biggest impact for me. I had already been living with a daily caloric deficit, but just cutting out the sweets for a few months took inches off my waist. I was a cappuccino/latte fanatic, and I didn't realize that just a single cup had three times more sugar than what I should be consuming a day. I also used to drizzle honey into my tea.
Omg I never new that about lattes thank you !!
Indeed, sugar is hellish. I wish they would tax sugar and forbid advertisment of sweet stuff.
Sugar wrecks hormones, too. I didn't realize how much hidden sugar is in the Standard American Diet (SAD is such an appropriate acronym for this). I first became aware of the issue watching that documentary Fed Up! But I didn't have the drive to do much about my sugar addiction until I had a child with a gluten and lactose intolerant. They get so sick after consuming those two things, that even at 3 they always ask if something has gluten or dairy in it before they consume something. 😢 American food is making us sick, and no one cares. We stopped spending our money on the cheap crap, and actually feel satiated after meals. So while our grocery budget has increased somewhat with all the gluten free things we purchase, we consume less and have been losing weight without changing anything else about our routine.
You can drink them without suger.
Honey is good for you though??? Its natural source of sugar. Nothing bad about it, it doesnt make your sugar in blood go up instantly, like regular sugar.
Another amazing educational video, thank you. I’ve lost over 80 pounds in the last two years, mostly by eating more vegetables (soups, salads) and fruit, and taking in fewer calories (about 1400 a day). I’ve gotten rid of sleep apnea and acid reflux. However, moving more (walking, hiking, swimming, biking, Zumba, calisthenics, gardening, kayaking, skating, cross-country skiing) has been the greater influence in increasing my joy for living every day. (Probably a lot to do with hormones.) Eating less is key, but the physical movement has had more of a positive effect on my mind and soul. Keep the videos coming! Thank you and your team for all of the research and preparation that goes into each one.
That is awesome!!!
@@theanatomylab this video had a really cool shart/table that showed some interesting correlation you alluded to what a full sprint does to the chart data .... But what about the opposite? Can you expand on this chart with regards to fasting?
🥱😒😮💨
EDIT 2024: Now down 200 lbs. (495>295 lb. 60%?+ bodyfat to 30% Work in progress).
I still stand by my old comment. There are certain methods or shortcuts like carnivore that I've used but those are strictly optional (replaces fiber with healthy animal fat, smaller softer poops instead of omnivore veggie/fruit fiber version. STILL OPTIONAL).
The non-negotiables still remain as below.
Water. Sleep. Whole foods. Protein.
Stress reduction.
Bare minimum: walking.
Bonus: ANY movement you find fun
Ideally/eventually: resistance training
You can do it. One day at a time. Don't stress/battle mode the process. Embrace the journey and struggle. You only lose when you never get back on the bandwagon.
EDIT: thanks for encouraging comments, will be doing my best to reply to comments asking questions and maybe update this in future.
Stuff missing from video:
1. Diet matters 1000% more than exercise. (a cheeseburger will take 5-7+ miles of running to burn off)
1.5* Maximize
A) Water (you're not hungry, you're thirsty)
B) Sleep (you're not hungry, you're sleepy/tired)
C) MINIMIZE stress (you're not hungry, you're angry/lonely/depressed)
B) Fiber (stay full, keep pooping)
C) Protein (20%+ of protein calories are used to digest protein ITSELF)
D) Whole foods
2. Exercise however releases endorphins, influences leptin/ghrelin, normalizing your appetite. (I get hungry after working out but I get full MUCH faster)
3. Muscle building does NOT increase caloric expenditure that much (1 pound of muscle burns less than 10 cal per day or so)
4. Bigger/more efficient muscles however, like cardiovascular system, will let you burn more calories without getting tired/hurt.
Like the video said, maximizing caloric burn is what matters for exercise. Low fat vs low carb vs vegan doesn't matter. Additives/processed food does matter. Weight lift vs running vs sports doesn't matter. Total burn matters. Do the exercise that you find most fun, period. Do the whole* food diet that's easiest for you, period.
Personal final word of advice from someone 100+ pounds lost and counting:
Try skipping dinner, not breakfast. Eat after workouts, not before. Workout twice/day or shove in physical activity anyplace you can. Never underestimate the power of daily walking. Good luck
I love this comment
Thanks for taking the time to write this. Very succinct! Well dinner sir
Honestly, thank you so much for this comment👏🏻
All you need is the carnivore diet
I'm 72 y.o. woman. I hike (2 miles in 1 hour, forest preserves) bike, up to 25 miles on bike trails, in 2 hours, swim, 45-60 minutes 1/2 to 1 mile, lift weights. I exercise 7 days a week mixing up the activities. Sometimes doing two activities a day... Bike and swim, hike and lift weights... whatever I need that day. Cook from scratch, organic, local farm raised pig/ cow/eggs. I hate breakfast, always have. 10 a.m. works best for me. An egg sandwich or p.b. on toast. Smoothie from frozen fruit and kefir or Greek yogurt. Still have a squishy belly 🥴. At least I am healthy and fit.
I love both the channel and the comments section! At least from what I’ve seen from scrolling, it’s not filled with overly tough people, just people sharing matter of fact thoughts based on facts, what works, and their own experiences. Feels a lot less toxic, and I like it!
I've tried loosing weight, and cutting out high calorie drinks and foods has been what has worked the most for me.
Exercise did make a difference, but it was barely noticeable until I got more control over my intake of calories.
Cutting down on sugar has been my biggest challenge, and also the thing that was most effective.
I'm curious about sugar because it is a carbohydrate which is what hunger is based on, whereas fat calories don't make you full because they produce no glycogen and the body is trying to run calorie neutral when it comes to carbohydrates. Nor does the body get hungry avoiding fat. If you cut out sugar e.g. replacing soda with water, then the hunger might go elsewhere into seeking bigger portions if you're not listing everything you eat, although fruit juice has more nutritional benefit than soda. I suppose if you're chronically exceeding your glycogen capacity with excess carbohydrate then fat conversion might start. Although I'm sure it's quite hard to do because it feels like eating two christmas dinners! If you're eating 50-100g of fat a day there is not enough calorie room though for all you want carbs. You'll have to go slightly hungry to lose weight.
So as far as cutting out high calorie drinks, anything with cream in it or fatty milkshakes and gold top, plus alcohol calories can all be avoided. Drinks where the energy is based on sugar (or starch) will usually displace hunger elsewhere. I'm not sure about protein calories as you need some (usually around 50 grams a day if you're not trying to build muscle, but even a pound of muscle a month is only about 3 grams of protein a day if I remember correctly so no need to gorge on hundreds of grams of the stuff).
I think the Durianrider logic is you restock only one tank - the glycogen one, but avoid restocking the fat one by having less than a couple of teaspoons of fat a day (only the fat that expands your variety of foods to something nutritionally complete). So say your exercise is 80:20 carbs to fats, then you'll only eat back just over 80% of your calories, but if you eat fat the body will go thanks anyway I'll store it but what I'm really after is carbohydrate.
@@TimpBizkit I do feel more full after eating fatty foods, and it seems I'm not the only one, but fats come in both healthy and unhealthy forms.
I've not regained the weight I lost after I drastically cut down on soda and it has been a year now. I've also not lost all the weight I can, since I still don't live a perfectly healthy life.
@@jamiececilielange5249 don't confuse temporary occupation of the digestive system with glycogen/glucose levels though. And yeah I did eat a boursin cheese spaghetti bolognese which was a bit thick from the excessive fat and took a while to digest. I think calorie for calorie I would have been better with plain spaghetti though - and perhaps some sweet chilli sauce for flavour. And even at that fat is 9 kcal per gram if your only metric is digestive system bulk. How long you can ride a bike on each food before your legs go limp is an interesting metric. Fueling a bike ride with cheese isn't going to be significantly better that just using what's covering my stomach muscles. Jelly beans will go much further calorie for calorie.
I think a better metric is time until you are hungry again. And some fats are healthier than others definitely.
@@TimpBizkit Sugar can sometimes leave you wanting for more, so it isn't a simple thing to measure. I think healthy carbs from vegetables are filling, but pure sugar in itself has a shortlived effect on fullness.
There are a lot of opinions and (sometimes contradicting) science out there, and I just wanted to share what worked for me. What worked the most was cutting down on soda.
Doing more exercise didn't make a noticeable difference until I fixed my calorie intake, and cutting down on fat didn't do much for me.
@@jamiececilielange5249 I have noticed that fat has to go REALLY low (under 20g to get much difference) in order to lose weight without restricting portion size. It's easy to go over with some relatively "healthy" items even certain soups and breads.
I think there are also many different measures of hunger, for example, sometimes I get a craving for savoury "umami" flavours, which is quite hard to describe, but separated from salt it has a sort of taste like quorn or those vegan "chicken" pieces, or even meat or steak itself. Perhaps I'm wanting glutamine.
I did do an experiment with 300 grams (1200 kcal) of sugar in water because I wanted to know whether it would be filling or whether it would be an easy and ultimately unsatisfying way to eat excess calories. It did keep me full till mid afternoon then I had a 200 kcal skinnylicious soup and felt STUFFED - so 1400 kcal total up to that point. It was a relatively sedentary day - church and to a friend's house. Could I have done better with 7 skinnylicious soups? I don't know but I think it beats cake. I do think sugar has to be properly hydrated for its satiating effect, which actually happens when it is absorbed into the cells, so eating a lot of jelly beans without fluid might not be as filling in the beginning.
It's hard to measure "full" though because if the stomach is stuffed with plain lettuce is that "full?" Some diets specialize in low calorie bulk food but even though the stomach is stretching I was still left "wanting", like I was just trying to drink tons of water when hungry, because very little sugar is getting to the cells.
I do think with carbohydrate though, the body will want its fill, so eating "half the amount of carbohydrate" will be more psychologically taxing compared to people who report appetite suppressant effects on keto, though am not sure whether it's just the body "forgetting" it's need of carbs - like smoking crack having a similar effect, but it catches up with you eventually. Anyway essay comment over.

I am 47, and I had to rethink of what High Intensity means for me. I loved running 20 years ago, and do high intensity cardio activities. Now I am focusing more on active strength training and retaining muscle mass. Thank you so much for this video!!
cardio can never match up with the ROI of weight training.
@@Mike-rw1jwYour heart disagrees
@@phi180 30 min of HIIT per week is more than enough to optimize your heart output. Checkout the video on this channel.
cardio does not yield long-term benefits but weight training does. All the muscle you add are life-long lasting (up to 60 yr)
You can rely entirely on weight training and skip altogether but vice versa is not a viable option.
Muscle memory allows your body to get back in shape within a matter 3-4 weeks if you take a long break more than 6 months. But cardio is forgotten by your bodyeven if you take just 1 month break.
@@Mike-rw1jw ok brb lifting some weights
Single?
As someone who lost a lot of weight, this is a great topic! But yeah- you can talk about fat burning zones, when to eat, what exercise you should do to burn more calories but the most important thing is creating a calorie deficit for a long enough period of time without going crazy with hunger or exhaustion (being in a calorie deficit it taxing). However you do that is the best way for you. All of this other stuff is just smaller considerations that can give you a smaller edge but they may not be ideal for your life choices.
Your username sums up how I feel about exercise lol
The calorie deficit is fosho taxing, you need to make sure u still get all the nutrients and vitamins you need
Calories deficit is hell, im so tired most of the time, is suck to see my max bench or deadlift reduced gradually so i can still hit that 8-12 reps range. But fck it, once this 6 packs coming through i be good.

I carry a very low percentage of body fat (between 7%-8%).
My resting heart rate is very low.
Usually around 48 BPM, but when I sleep it’s extremely low (around 35BPM - 40BPM)
Is that all fat at that point?
I’d also love to know how many calories that is a minute.
This would give me a better depiction of how many calories I burn during a day (just sitting around)
But I love that chart. I’ve always know when you’re heavier, you burn more calories resting because your heart beats much harder since it has to work much harder.
But I love the breakdown, as it shows which calories are being used for energy.
Have a feeling I’m going down the rabbit hole on this channel
The advice at the end is the best advice you can give someone. Being consistent is probably step one. Changing the way your body looks is a long process and you don’t want that process to be one that you don’t enjoy doing. Whatever your workout is, you should enjoy doing it.
The key take away to is; your not burning fat while you exercise. Fat burning happens at rest. Do whatever workout you enjoy and do it consistently. Skip the post workout shakes and snacks, wait to eat, your body will take from your fats to replenish. When you do eat avoid simple carbs, eat high in fibre, protein and natural healthy fats. And by all means DO NOT EAT AT NIGHT (I added that 😉).
This is very good advice but I definitely wouldn’t “skip the shake” after a workout. Get your protein powder in you pretty shortly after you lift. And I mean protein powder and water. Not all that junk in an unhealthy shake
That was my key to losing weight..I stopped eating past 8pm I cut back on all sugar and I walk everyday for 30 minutes at a bridal pace.. I'm now a healthy 150 lbs.. my blood pressure is back to normal

@@fredwilliams7893 if you keep eating all day, till midnigh, your body will consume the carbs and fats freshly ingested and your isuline resistance will increas and you will constantly feel hungry. Fasting will help you lose stored fat.
im so glad that u finished this off by talking about consistency, almost thought u were gonna skip past that but its arguably the most important thing for literally just health in general, if you wanna look good and feel good and literally just be happier, you need to consistently exercise, even in zone 2 or less intense than even that

Walking on the treadmill at 3.2 mph for 1 hour 5 days a week for 8 months , is mostly responsible for my weight at 295 down to 198 without very hard recovery and risk of injury.
@@Liam021 for the same reason I use water aerobics as my primary exercise to maintain a healthy weight. Easy on the joints, less damage to repair after workout. Making recovery a lot more manageable.
Totally agree! I started my weight loss journey by simply doing IF and walking. So skip breakfast ( which means some caloric restriction) and walk 1 hour a day on top of my daily walk commute. So I walk 10km a day approximately. And the weight has slowly shed off! To date I’ve lost 5kg! From 90 - 85. It’s easy and i intend to continue
@@moonshiryin how many days have you lost 5 kgs?
@@raylemar2386how much of a caloric deficit did you have for those 8 months
Me too..I walk 2 miles a day at 3.5 mph and I keep my heart rate between 109 to 132 rpm .I've lost 20 pounds on 3 months and I'm back to my normal healthy bmi weight and my blood pressure is back to normal .I also drink apple cider vinegar and half a lemon in my water daily and I do 18/6 intermittent fasting..
Great vid. Once a big guy, I now am a body builder. Started out at the age of 43! A tip for people struggling to get into sports: think out of the box. There is other activities that burn lots of calories too. Things for example like gardening or playing drums (rock and metal sure do burn fat, I know! I play drums since a few years as a partial alternative to cardio training).
No wonder those ppl are skinny
Pro tip: An even faster way to prioritize burning fat calories over carb/glucose calories during exercise, is to do high intensity cardio while fasted. E.g. if you haven't eaten for at least 12 hours, you already have very low levels of stored glucose. Then you'll be burning a much higher % of fat cals during your high intensity session
This may work with cardio but I’ve tried to do this with high intensity weightlifting and let’s just say I was taking a nap in my car about half way through the workout 😂.
@@watersheep6590 for sure bro, we need that sugar for power and strength. And cardio, even if it’s moderate or low intensity fasted (on the safe side), will see results
I reckon the fat burning zone is the exercise zone in which you enjoy exercising the most, and are most likely to consistently exercise.
Equally important is not suffering extreme exhaustion, which may cause you to avoid your exercise.
I hate low intensity. That's when your mind starts to wander and I dont want to be alone with my thoughts.
@@brulsmurfeveryone is different and not everyone will be satisfied with the same thing 🤷🏼♀️
You do you
For example, I came here because I just found out I'm pregnant, went to the doctor and found out how much weight I've gained in the past year (my body fat, not pregnancy). So I'm looking for ways to lose some body fat to be healthy but I can't do extreme exercise because of the baby. So I can only do that low impact exercise and with my asthma I could never exercise too hard anyway. So I do me, you do you 😉
@@Magda_7396 if you did you then you wouldnt be preggers in the first place.
You are 100% on this! For people who want to lose significant amounts of weight, what zone you are in matters a lot less than getting in the effort, plus adjusting diet.
I started running 2.5 months ago. First month and a half I didn't even look at the scale or adjust my food. Because I wanted to see if I could get myself addicted to running. I did, found I'd lost about 5lbs and then consulted a nutritionist. In the past month I've now lost another 12lbs, so down 17 of the original 45-50 I want to lose.
Most importantly I'm running three days per week and fairly long walks another 2-3 days. Instead of dieting to lose weight I'm dieting to get better at running. (Which of course means losing weight but there is a fundamental difference in the motivation.)
In my running I know I'm in zone 3-4 or even 5 a lot of the time and my walking is zone 2. But it's more about sustainability than fat burning. I've proven that I can't run even 4 times a week without burning out very quickly. So walking at zone 2 gets me some extra calories burned, kilometers covered, and more importantly keeps my brain in the mentality that exercise is a daily thing except for 1-2 rest days for recovery.
@@CorwinFound I am doing almost the identical same, with walking and running. I've found that eating plenty of fruit is giving me the most energy for running, as well as drinking lots of water.
At the end of the day, it’s comes to how much Kcal you burn compared to how much you intake. Of course there is more to it such as macro and micro nutrients and how you train yourself, weights/cardio or both, which is the best way to do it!
You should be eating a bit less than how much your supposed to eat for your weight, age, sex and height. Subtract about 200-500 kcal from that number and boom! Good luck to everyone on their goals! Remember, losing weight is not a race, it’s a marathon. It’s about the big picture. Enjoy the progress even if it’s a little. You’ll end up making mistakes but stay strong and keep going and most importantly learn from it! Also love the video!!
As an individual who has undergone significant weight loss, I believe this topic is of great importance. While discussions on fat-burning zones, ideal meal times, and calorie-burning exercises are informative, the most crucial factor is to maintain a calorie deficit for a prolonged period without experiencing excessive hunger or exhaustion.. Speaking of weight loss, I personally had success with SlimSparks.
I personally lost 66 lbs (30 kg) in 8 months without losing any muscle and strength. I followed a high fat, low carb diet and this worked extremely well for me. Losing fat and keeping it of is incredibly easy if you know what you’re doing 🙂
Well why don’t you tell us?
@@bstevermer9293 What’s up bruv, what I basically did was a diet called “cyclical high fat” diet. I would eat high protein, high fat, low carb diet for 5 days followed by a high carb day, low fat day. The high carb day is essential during high fat, low carb diets to keep your metabolism up, reset your leptin receptors and replenish depleted muscle glycogen stores to keep burning body fat.
I also went to the gym 5x a week, did cardio 2x a week (1x HIIT and 1x Steady state), drank a lot of water (2.5-3 liters a day) and sleep well. I gave 100% because my goal was to lose as much body fat as possible as fast as possible.
My macronutrients were around:
Protein: 250 grams = 1000 calories
Healthy fats: 125 grams = 1125 calories
Carbs: 0 grams = 0 calories
Total: 2125 calories
The only carbs I eat during weight loss are from vegetables, but I don’t count them in my caloric intake.
Hope this helps. Feel free to ask any further questions 💪🏼
Idk if this works for women... I think even with this, you need a way to reduce stress and improve sleep quality.
@@StephonFitness
Thanks
Nice lecture. Good luck for everyone trying to loose weight. Don’t forget that by far the most influential factor is still what and how much food goes by your lips. And exercising can help you regulate this to an extent.
Can definitely vouch for this. I changed eating habits without changing exercise levels and it allowed me to lose 80ish pounds in around 15 months.
The best way to lose weight is with a calorie deficit 👌🏻
One can not outrun a bad diet.
“How much food” re write that with “qualify of food” it’s very hard to over eat clean Whole Foods as it’s easy to over eat ultra processed foods. It’s not the amount necessarily it’s more or less the quality

You should compliment your fellow men. It’s great for emotional health.
Why the ‘no homo’ disclaimer? I don’t understand men.
This video brings everything I’ve learned full circle. I went through physical therapy for almost a year for an injury to my left IT band. Since I “graduated” I’ve been working in tandem with my PT as well as independently in the gym. I chose not to get hooked up with an expensive trainer since I’m just starting back to a full workout after several years out of the gym. I used to run up to 8 miles a day, was in great shape and then started working as a nurse in dialysis. Those 16 to 18 hr days kept me out of the gym, but also kept me slender and fit.
Your break down and more in-depth info has truly made it much easier to understand what was being taught to me during my recovery. I wish they could explain it in as much detail as you do! This is why I LOVE these videos!!!!😊
US is such a weird country. Truckers are not allowed to work more than 12 hours because it is dangerous if they get tired and lose focus. but health care personnel are allowed to work 18h, people that literary hold other peoples lives in their hands? I hope I don't get sick or injured next time I visit the US, getting a doctor or nurse on the 18'th hour scares the shit out of me.
@@incognito7843 Spot on, mate. 18hrs are nothing from stories I've heard. Have heard people put on 48hr shifts, because of demands on them (although rules are slowly getting better). According to the CDC, if you're awake for 24hrs, you're equivalent to being legally drunk. If any doc worked their shift with 0.10% blood alcohol, obviously that would be a serious concern, yet people hardly bat an eye to sleep deprivation.
Massive contribution! The explanation of the fat storage/ usage ratio explains the base of most fitness- nutrition models of the last ten years! Just no dogma or belief systems. Thank you very much. 🙏
Tl;Dr: go for HIIT to maximize fat loss. The fat burning zone, Zone 2 (strenuous but you can sustain a conversation) burns the most fat percentage, but the greatest fat loss depends on the total calories burned. Volume matters more (I.e. account for time). It’s important to strength train along with doing cardio because the post workout recovery stimulates the efficiency of your mitochondria at burning fat (this last time requires a second watch on the biological explanation)
TL;DR basically do a balance of them all! HIIT won't burn many calories because you can't keep it up for more than a few minutes. It will help keep you in good cardiovascular health though. Walking briskly will burn the most fat proportionally. Cardio also helps build cardiovascular health, though doing too much of it will burn muscle as well.
@@jameslafountain Oh yeah, that's what I do. I can't walk that many hours on roadside anyway because of repetitive strain. On trails though, you get all sorts of variability. I can jog down hills and slow down on ascents to keep my perceived effort decent. I'm in the Pacific Northwest so I aught to be doing more of it than I am. I do bike to work at least
This is the most concise video about losing fat I've seen. Thank you for packing in the data and also being real about its significance vs calories in calories out!
Congratulations! You just proved we're never too old to be proactive about our health! Keep up the good work!
Great video - I especially like that you emphasized finding an exercise mode you enjoy so you can be consistent. That seems to be the downfall of many folks, especially when looking at staying fit into older age (maintaining consistency over decades is a real challenge if you hate the exercises you've chosen). The only thing I was hoping to see you include that didn't get mentioned was the weight loss benefits of resistance training. If you run/walk, you burn calories while you're exercising, then for a very short period of time afterward, as you mentioned. But then your body returns to its relatively low base metabolism for the rest of the day. If you add lean muscle mass, that muscles tissue is burning additional fat around the clock, so even when you're at rest, you're burning more calories due to the additional muscle mass - which can contribute to significantly more fat loss. Who's interested in losing weight that wouldn't want to burn more fat while resting? And the improved muscle tone also makes what fat you do have look less "baggy", as a bonus. Would love to see a video encouraging safe and effective modes of resistance training for fat loss as well as improved strength/bone density/mobility as we move into our older years.

@@imagineifyouwereaworm I mean if you really wanna get technical, then yeah. Obviously eating lower calorie foods will help satiate your hunger while keeping your calorie intake lower.

You’d have to adjust it to your activity level but it’s a good start
@@drewnlmbif ur more active then multiply ur body weight in lbs by 12 if ur not active then by 11 but if u are kinda near the athlete version then by 13 it gives u a very close calorie to maintain then minus it by 200-600 depending on how strong of a deficit u want

Yes! The most important thing about exercising is finding something you like doing so you regularly and consistently do it.
It's better to do anything 4 times a week than begrudgingly doing something, get sore or miserable, and only go every 2 weeks.

Excellent explanation of metabolism and the practical summary at the end is the key. Ultimately, you have to find a type of exercise that you can enjoy enough to engage in consistently in order reap any fat burning benefits.
Awesome video! I was always confused about spot reduction. Btw just wondering if you guys have a video about what pregnancy does to the body?
We have a specific video on the placenta, as well as some videos from a few years ago on the female reproductive cycle, and some TH-cam shorts on pregnancy.
"spot reduction" is called LIPOSUCTION, it is the ONLY way to TARGET fat
Ruins you, I have 3. 😂😂😂
Oh, those pelvic bones! LOL!
im no expert but i think when your pregnant a human grows inside you. like a parasite. 🤮
The best way to lose fat is to pretend it’s your keys or wallet.
“crap I forgot my abdomen”
I love your explanation on anything happening in the body. This was a great video explaining the huge mystery of fat burning. Could you please detail burning fat regarding aging. It has never been more difficult than at age 65.
I loved this! I’ve been hiking 2 miles everyday and I love the suggestion to get really good and consistent with an exercise you enjoy and then find creative ways to increase the intensity
Thanks so much!
Great informative video! One thing extremely important is that you can work more frequent and longer on zone 2 compare to higher zones, it's less stressful to your body meaning you'll need less time to recover, for example almost anyone can work 2 hours of zone 2 section 5 to even 6 days a week, but no one can do 3 days a week of high intensity section without overtraining ideally if you workout 4 to 5 days a week do 3 low intensity sections and 1 high intensity that way you can keep doing that for months without getting the risk of overtraining.
Yes! Good explanation!
I think an interesting bit to add is about brown fat and subcutaneous fat. Cold showers are an excellent "lazy" way of letting your fat levels down. If you regularly expose yourself to cold water (showers or baths) then you're body will utilize it's hidden brown fat storage. In effect your body has to work harder to burn fat because you're colder. And it's chuffing amazing!
This is true, but you need to be careful with how you do it. I suggest watching this video th-cam.com/video/GqPGXG5TlZw/w-d-xo.html&ab_channel=AndrewHuberman before starting a cold exposure treatment.
Has anyone ever measured how much that is?
Especially with a cold shower and if you dry yourself off, I'm sceptical of that using up a lot of energy. Also it might increase hunger more than it uses up fat.
Maybe if you are constantly cold, e.g. don't wear jackets in winter, that would add up.
@@MrCmon113 it's a good point, I'm not sure either. The only thing I can say is, try it for yourself and see. Do cold showers for a month a long with your regular exercise routine and see if it makes a difference.
@@MrCmon113 It definitely increases metabolism from what I've experienced, because once I warm up I can go many hours without feeling cold enough to need a sweater in the winter. The constant cold doesn't do it though, you just get hypothermic and it doesn't seem to do anything. It has to be a rapid change, because it's related to the dive reflex and triggering your nervous system. I would only recommend it to people who are younger and mildly overweight though, because it doesn't replace actual exercise, just gives a small psychological/catecholamine boost to it.
I'm in college and it always amazes me how great this channel videos are! You guys say almost everything the professors say. Love it
This has to be one thee most honest , factual and informative videos on weight loss on this platform. I have learned ALOT and will use this information for my fitness goals! Thank you
Happy New Year bro!! You really helped me this year with your anatomy lectures 🙏 3000% better thn my med school professor 😤
A great discussion while watching this on New Years Day. Maybe I can keep my New Years resolution this year by knowing how my body works.
Hope it works for you. I became more motivated after watching their video on what the heart goes through during exercise, I just found it really interesting how the heart can get so much stronger. Also having a fitbit helped. It provides data and allowed me to track improvements after each workout (I'm a bit of a numbers geek).
You quit yet?
Yep! Fat loss is a whole body thing. Just work hard and keep the diet in check.
There actually could be a potential benefit to exercising at a higher intensity when it comes to weight training. Since the greater the percentage of your body that is made up of muscle as apposed to fat the greater the amount of calories that you will burn while at rest or any other activity.
I see what you're saying but form is more important when it comes to weight training. If you want to do cardio then you do it while you're not weightlifting. This is because fatigue will decrease form. it's important to have different forms of exercise
That's called callories deficit, and you'll just have to eat more otherwise you're going to be constantly hungry
@@JohnDoe-ie9iw easy fix is using machines with fixed paths. not much to worry about form then.
no intensity meens no muscle
@@imptastic9019 😂😂 free weights build way more muscles then machines
I’m laughing because I did a lower heart rate cardio exercise yesterday morning. I look at my fit bit and I burned 245 calories in the ~40 min exercise. I just checked my progress for today after the New Years festivities of line dancing for the same amount of time and I burned a whopping 323 calories. And I wanted to keep going but we had leave☹️. Looks like I’m dancing my 25lbs of baby weight off this year!! Stay focused everyone, and Happy New Year 🥳
This should be a part of every personal trainers learning kit, because the mind-blowing rumors I hear across the industry make me sick.
It would be great to see a follow up on this video covering ketosis. This is a critical component of the fat-burning conversation and would have loved to see this covered here. Great work anyway and now you have an idea for another video.
I have the same question! How do these numbers change (if at all) when in ketosis? Do we burn ketones in lieu of carbohydrates, and does this change the "fat burning percentage" in the chart? As he mentioned, overall calories are the most important factor, but I'm very curious what the physiology looks like in keto related to these numbers/topic.
I used to run a lot of miles plus run races like half marathon.then I got arthritis in my hip.I just got hip surgery last march. Still walking up 10’000 steps some days thank you for this video.I eat a high protein like 4 to 5 egg after my 20 hr fast
I just finished Post Secondary and have finally found myself gaining that “freshmen 15” weight, more like 20 in my case. I was very active throughout high-school and was more concerned with my bodies abilities than it’s aesthetic. I understand that because I have been less active that weight gain is inevitable, but I have been struggling with incorporating exercise in my daily routine, and sticking with it. Mostly because I don’t have enough energy after my shifts to commit to a high intensity workout.
I feel like I have finally figured out what I have been doing wrong, watching this video!
Back in high-school I participated in sport practices in the morning, and I always signed up for phys-ed on top of that. Looking back I would never worked out heard enough to “look bad” in my next class.
I don’t need to push myself to the breaking point in order to see results. I feel as though this Stage Two zone for me, might be the very thing that I am able to commit to consistently! And therefore, I am hopeful to actually see results and feel like myself again!
If you still take classes, you could try jogging between them, or the classes and your dorm. Other than that, getting up earlier to do a short workout in the morning could work too.
Thanks Jonathan! I've really enjoyed watching your videos and learning so much about the human body. You deliver content clearly and can tell you are passionate about it! The debunking of myths definitely helps clear up several things as there is a lot of conflicting information out there.
Calorie deficit works well for me to lose fat, I make sure the calories are nutritious and not empty , I exercise lightly as well but more for my flexibility and my mood 😊
The problem with the higher intensity workouts are that you generally crave post workout due to your body seeking to replenish the carbs. If you lower the intensity to zone 2, you are less likely to have strong cravings post workout and as such have a reduced calorie intake. For those that are unfit, a brisk walk often get them into zone 2 relatively easily and can be maintained for longer periods.

What about drinking protein powder after?
I'm 70 now but twice in my life I started working out, following pretty much what you describe here, to get into better shape and over the course of a year or so I dropped down to my ideal weight, had added muscle mass, and was feeling great. Then, in both cases, I started feeling tired and washed out. I had no energy at all and eventually quit working out. It wasn't until years later that I had the thought that I might not have been eating enough and my body had started burning muscle to power itself.
Do you think that could have been what happened?
Ask Mike Mentzer
@@vidalskyociosen3326 Mike Mentzer, the bodybuilder who passed away years ago?
Sounds like overtraining & maybe lack of enough recovery time between exercise sessions.
@@chandrakantmarale That's not me but a model I photographed 20 years ago. I was a glamour photographer. That shot is actually a Polaroid to check lighting.
@@beecee921 My whole exercise routine was based on not overdoing it except for the occasional pushing myself into anaerobic/all out sessions of a few minutes. Back in college in the '70s I took classes on Sports Science. It might have been the first of its kind in the US. It was only a few semesters. I also went by what author Covert Bailey wrote in his popular book at the time 'Fit or Fat'. At 45 I was in the best shape of my life and could do things like 500 ab crunches with ease. This just 3 months starting out and having trouble doing 10 of them.
Med school didn't teach me a lot what this channel has taught me through a bunch of videos. Thankyou so much. Y'all doing a fantastic job!!!
I’ve been running, but all I got was well beside having buff legs I had a lot of intense and acute pain in my bones and joints as well as feeling my lungs were having a heavier workout than my legs. I came to the conclusion that dancing is by far the best method of fullbody exercise for my body type.
Good for you! Plus dancing is so much more fun. I have to limit running because my hips/psoas hate it
I would love to see a follow up video to this focusing on how certain types of exercises effect post exercise testosterone production and the relationship between high levels of testosterone and greater fat burning efficiency. IE. weight bearing exercises vs endurance cardio vs sprints, etc. and how each impacts the recovery processes and resulting hormone adjustments to meet progressive load demand. Thank you for all the great info!
Nice Video! #1 exercise to burn fat is tracking calories. Having an understanding of how many calories your body burns on a day to day basis (with working out included) will give you the precise information to make decisions on what to eat and how much of it. This process will never fail. How do you figure out your maintenance calories? With a daily morning weigh in on a scale that you cross examine with calories consumed the day before. Take 7 day weigh in averages, and compare your progress weekly. You will quickly figure out your calorie number.
I did a study in college about this and found that 20 minutes of Hiit works best for me with lifting. Lost the most fat the fastest and I hit all zones especially the “fat burning zone”. There are a bunch of other factors but I found this very effective.
Could you do a video on how stress & adrenaline affects the body. As a truck driver with a lot of stress & at times a lot of adrenaline. Thanks
Love the videos. Happy New Year to all.
They already made a video on that, look up your body under stress and you’ll find it
Unfortunately I can’t post a link because youtube thinks i am a spam bot
@@johneldepresso Thanks. I will look for it. Happy New Year
I feel like this video really laid down the truth about exercise and burning fat! I loved the time you spent going over the progressive exercise intensity chart! Thank you so much !
Stay caloric deficit, upto 500 kcl, eat high protein, lift weights for muscle strengthening muscle endurance and muscle gains, add low intensity cardio thrice weekly for toning of your body.
What about fasting, to lose fat, and exercising to feel great? The one or two meals a day, to lower insulin resistance and get out of storage mode, appears to be a sustainable strategy as opposed to an exercise routine to lose weight?
I've found what works best for my weight loss clients is to have them build up to completing a 2 mile run (treadmill, track or elliptical) at whatever pace they can manage. once they're comfortable at a given pace, we bring it back down to one mile at a higher speed. once they are comfortable at this new speed, we increase the distance at that speed. rinse and repeat until ripped
Thank you for sharing this informative video! It's truly enlightening to understand the science behind fat burning and how to approach it effectively. The breakdown of myths and clear explanation of fat utilization during different exercise intensities were particularly insightful. I appreciate the emphasis on overall calorie expenditure and finding enjoyable exercise routines. Thanks again for empowering us with knowledge to achieve our fitness goals!
I REALLY enjoy your videos. You explain things so that they are easily understood by someone like me, who's biology education consists of what I learned in high school 40 years ago, and what I retained by helping my kids study while THEY were in high school. Thank you for all you do!
Ive struggled with weight most of my life but becoming a keen cyclist has certainly helped change me. 35 now and amongst my circle of friends i’ve gone from the least fit to the most fit over the past 5 years. Best part is they are all starting to go grey and getting dad bods while I have grown a 2 ft mane of blond hair and while I’ll always have stomach jiggle I cut a good luck these days.
The Viking biker they call me :)
biking isnt a good thing = depletes stem cells = violates the energy equation = and harms you long-term
Actually, new studied are showing you CAN target fat in specific areas. New studies show that working out parts of the body can release fat cells in that area to used and burned by the body, therefore burning fat in one place. However, more research needs to be done because its a very new study but the research is there and it is possible. The best way to do this: Work out the area of body you want the fat cells to activate in, whether its chest, arms, legs, etc. Then after, do cardio to BURN the fat cells that have been released.
Thank you dhia
I appreciate your programming. I wish it was available at university 45 years ago. What effect does exercise, especially strenuous exercise have on the elderly, babyboomers 65 or 70 years , even older?
Just get into lifting bru. It's the closest we've got to the Fountain of Youth
Lifting and biking that will increase your strength to avoid frailty and increase blood viscosity and Vo2 max.
It increases bone-density and builds muscle as it does for everybody, though these things become more important the older we get. Of course the older we get the less muslce our bodies will build and hold on to. However as far as I know it has been shown that you can still reach your potential at a higher age, even if you've never worked out before. So basically you can still become the fittest and strongest 70 year old version of yourself without having prior training-experience, you just take a bit more time to get there.
Also Type II muscle-fibers are more affected by the aging process and those are also the ones that respond the most to high-intensity exercise like weight-training. They are also vital in keeping us healthy and safe, since they can output a lot of power really fast, which is important when you for instance take a fall or have to brace yourself to avoid injury.
My grandfather has told me how much he appreciates his weight-training ever since he noticed that has never been seriously injured in his old age even whilst staying active while less active friends of his have had to go the hospitals from seemingly minor falls and such.
If you want to know what high-intensity exercise can do for you, check out the video titled "Longevity - A Meme Experience" by Jack PGM. There are a few clips in there with people upwards of 70 years old lifting weights that are well beyond what the average young person can handle.
Anyway, hope that helps. :)
For a 65-70+ year old who hasn't exercised regularly in his earlier years, starting 'STRENUOUS' exercise is simply a bad idea. In sharp contrast, starting with mild regular exercise, is a great idea. There are three pillars of physical well-being that should be adressed; 1. cardiovascular performace (conditioning), 2. strength, 3. mobility . If you have no medical contraindications, just start now, probably it is the best thing one can do. But beware very much trying to do too much too fast !!! - that's how injuries happen. You have time. Take little steps forward. Make sure you are comfortable with increases that you make. With age, the body needs more time to regenerate and adapt - but if you are patient, it will! - and over time you will make huge progress.
When I was a personal trainer I had the great pleasure of being regularly in the gym with a former Mr Universe. He was in his 80's and still training most days and doing quite heavy weights. He was as fit as a fiddle. His motto: use it or lose it. Everyone can become fitter one way or another. Swimming is a great all round exercise for older people. It takes pressure off joints, exercises muscles, heart and lungs and builds and tones. Walking will work for bone density, then I corporate some basic weights. The goal is health, the weight loss will follow 😄 BTW, I'm 66.
Brilliant. I have put on over 30kg in the last 3 years. Today I have signed up for a fitness program and this video has arrived with perfect timing.
Thank you and blessings to you for a wonderful new year xxx
Good luck to you, Dorcas! I started walking a couple of months ago in anticipation of our cold winter weather. I learned which layers were most effective in keeping the wind and cold out without making me feel as if I were in a sauna. I'm a 58-year-old woman who has consistently gained and plateaued.
I used to be a marathoner but those days are behind me. This video helped me to understand that staying in Zone 2 isn't something to be ashamed of, but a very effective way to slowly lose weight.
Again, good luck in 2023!
30kg in 3 years?! Your stack must be more expensive than the Liver King's.
The one thing I love about this channel is integration of real science and studies in each argument. Mostly on all the channels there are biased or just magazine stuff. There can be more improvements but...this is an appreciation comment.
Love your content. What about disabled people like me who have mobility issues and are extremely limited in our ability to move/exercise or achieve any kind of fitness? Would love to see a video representing those of us who are physically challenged. Happy New Year!
Try adaptive exercises and pool classes, if you can do those. Your local YMCA or senior center would have listings.
If you're a vet I know the VA has adaptive therapies and exercise classes
@@YourCapyFrenBigly_3DPipes1999 No, plus I live out of the country, so American resources are not at my disposal. I'm in a very remote area with few services, not even a pool or a gym. Is there a solely nutritional possibility, or only an exercise regimen?
@@PapaPeregrine oh I see. Well there's one odd method you might like, called Oxycising. You can look up the website and TH-cam channel. They have low impact versions for people of all mobility levels.
It's basically just more organized breathing exercises that supposedly help the body burn more fat and be more fit. I'm not sure if it works or not but it well may. I've been meaning to give it a try but every time I start I drop off lol. I would like to give it a longer try and see if it makes a noticeable difference for me.
@@YourCapyFrenBigly_3DPipes1999 Never heard of it! Will definitely look into it. Thanks!
Good video. I always wondered how accurate your videos were as none were in my expertise so always just took your word for it and enjoyed the videos but now that one is in my expertise it’s good to know that I can really trust the quality of the rest. The simplifications were well handled and some great info. Another great video
I dont do much cardio, but i do strength training and weightlifting 4x a week, with a mostly-controlled diet and im in the best shape of my life with no sign of slowing down. May introduce more cardio to see what happens.
Probably 16-18% body fat, 6ft 200 pound male.
can you make a video about how fasting especially long hours of fasting 24hr+ affects our body, does it help lose fat?
You rock man! Your way of explaining and simplifying these things is so helpful to me!
Zone 3, 4 or 5 can make you overeating, because the excercise will make you very hungry, defeating the purpose. It's also psycological, overtraining and tiredness could make your motivation low.
Happy New Year 2023 everybody!!🥳🥳🥳 Thank you for the videos and the lessons...we are greatly informed from these videos.. much love from Kenya!!
Thank you both for educating, as well as showing us 'FACTS'
about the human body throughout 2022.
I definitely learned so very much. 👍 😃
I'm wishing you both, as well as anyone else who is involved in producing these videos (editing, production, etc.)
a very HAPPY NEW YEAR!
Let's all share more, learn more, & listen more, etc.
God bless everyone in 2023. 😃 👍 ✅ ✝️ 🇺🇲
Yup a lot of girls diet. Then go back to blimps. You have to fast, calorie deficit and EXERCISE. Resistance training to build muscle. When you build the muscle, then after dieting (calorie deficit), you'll be fine going back to your regular diet. You have to have proper amount of muscle
This all great and very informative. Could you make a video on the relationship between nutrition and exercise for fat loss. It would be interesting to see any relationships from a physiological and anatomical scope. Thanks so much again.
Hey Jonathan, many thanks for this very insightful video! If you wouldn’t mind, please could you do a video on how the human body goes into starvation mode and how this then leads to storing extra body fat? Many thanks!
Yeah balance is key. For aerobic exercise, find something fun that you enjoy. Basketball, tennis, mountain biking, skateboarding... whatever floats your boat. If you enjoy it, you'll keep doing it. Then for an easy extra fat burn, lift some weights / do some push-ups a couple of times a week. Nothing crazy, just for 10 mins. This is enough to cause the muscles to repair. The body uses some fat to build and repair muscle.
The thing that always gets me though, is when I read about how the body will adjust its metabolic rate to the intensity/frequency of exercise and caloric intake. So say I eat less, exercise more…Works out fine for awhile, but my body adjusts and now I have to lower my intake even further, and exercise more, thus producing diminished returns on my efforts…How do we compensate for that??
There's a limit to how much it will adjust.
@@cornchips007 Yep. I think of the people that were in the horror of concentration camps in the wars. There were no fat victims.
Check out G-flux, its basically move more eat more, eventually your body adapts in that direction also, so it raises your metabolism.
If you eat so little your body reduces its metabolic rate to compensate you're in a serious deficit, i.e not healthy. Even pro-bodybuilders only go there for a few months so long as it's effective. Check out some of the videos Mike Israetel did on dieting and weight/fat-loss. He lays it out in a really comprehensive way and what rate of weight-loss you should go for over x-amount of time.
@@iliketoast-q9b I will thanks!
I've only been in shape maybe 3 times in my life, between high school sports, the military, and one year where I took P90X serious. Sadly, those habits never stuck and I always ended up burning myself out. Up to the start of 2022, I got up to 265 lbs, where my nominal weight should really be about 190 lbs. Some time into the year, I got depressed and started eating less. I noticed I would go a day without eating at times. I also noticed that my weight was dropping. I decided to turn my depression into energy by tracking it and doing some data science. I started tracking all my calories taken in and my weight. I did a bit of analysis and noticed that my equilibrium point was at about 2,500 calories. I even added a few binge eating days to make sure the data was correct. This is with me sitting down a lot, playing video games, and watching movies. Not much exercise at all per day. In about 3 months, I dropped down from 265 to 240 lbs, purely from tracking my caloric intake and keeping it below 2,200 calories as a policy. For the past 2 months, the weight loss has been pretty constant at a rate of about 0.2 lbs per day. I've found that my mind is more clear, I feel more light and nimble, I feel like I have more energy, and I can easily run up and down stairs without issue. I've also found that this is the easiest diet to maintain, especially after getting used to eating less. I've heard all the myths, all the fat burning routines, all the diets. It literally boils down to caloric balance. I can eat donuts every day as long as my calories stay below the threshold, and my body still sheds the lbs. I just eat what I crave and plan out my meals on a day-to-day basis, keeping mental notes of calories per servings of items I have memorized, and track the time and portion that I ate, like a check book. It's amazing how simple it actually is. At some point, I want to add exercise, but for now it's working like a charm without it.
Thanks for sharing! This is a great idea. Happy you found this to work for you! ❤
Yep. My lowest weight ever I only achieved after a full year of anxiety and depression, my appetite was my most visible symptom for whoever paid attention. Prior to this, I tried for at least a decade to achieve a weight that's 3pounds over my current weight, imagine that. I wouldn't wish anyone to lose weight this way, but some people call me lucky 🤷♀️
Yes thanks for sharing 🌸
Eating donuts might give you the calories you need but won't give you the required macro nutrition your body needs which can make you unhealthy even if you have lesser weight
@@architmahatorollno.332 Completely missed the point of what they were saying. There is a lot of bad information out there that will make you believe the only way to get lean is to eat healthy whole foods. Of course those are the best foods for our overall health, but when it comes to losing weight whole foods are not the only thing you are allowed to eat when trying to lose weight.
I cannot express how much the knowledge of “human beings only being able to store 500 grams of carbs” has helped me in this moment. Thank you 😭
This was a pretty explanatory video about calories and fat burning, thank u! I always enjoy your videos a lot ♥
What an amazing content truly, the explanation of theoretical part and added practical life applications. Kudos to the channel.
