    If you've been having trouble losing fat and achieving the lean physique you're after, today's video is an absolute must watch. There's so much misleading information circulating in the online fitness space in regards to what the "best cutting diet" is and how each person should approach their fat loss nutrition that it can cause many to simply run in circles and never get anywhere. In this video we'll be discussing the truth behind 10 fat burning myths you've been told that are preventing you from achieving the lean body, muscle definition and six pack abs you're after. If you just take a few minutes to watch this through and apply these tips to your next cutting phase it really could make the difference between fat loss success and failure. This isn't about miracle "weight loss quick fixes", fads or fat burner supplements - this is about equipping you with the real tools and information you need to get lean and stay lean over the long term.

      Eat much more protein.
      Less sugar carbs(but not no carbs)
      Eat more fibers(to fill yourself) and eat some good healthy fat ( but too much cause their calories are ridiculously high) and all of this in calorie deficit to loose around 1% of body fat each week(3500 calories are around 0.5 of fat) and do cardio for 150 minutes at least in a week . With some strength training in the week and you would be golden my guy.

  • @rasalresid9147
    @rasalresid9147 2 ปีที่แล้ว +117

    The #1 thing is planned and structured diet, because the only way for your body to burn fat is to use it as energy. Basically, you need to eat below your energy maintenance level (in terms of calories) and your fat cells will be used to compensate the missing energy (calories). That's how your body works. There are other things to consider as well, such as hormonal status, diseases... but caloric deficit is a must. You have a lot of diet helpers and planners, like Next level diet for example (used it personally). Losing/gaining weight is just a simple math, really...

  • @egotrips4810
    @egotrips4810 2 ปีที่แล้ว +24

    I agree especially with the last info on #2. In a few mths I dropped down from 190lbs to 170-175lbs while still eating whatever I desired once/twice a week (though much smaller portions too) and started eating more healthier foods. Most people try to eliminate every single thing 'bad food' and it ends up being a horrible experience and then give up. Now I did facilitate it by exercising (30min cardio 2-3 times a week), but the key takeaway is that I was still at a deficit from my maintenance level + exercising which gave me extra motivation to keep it up.

    Good to hear about people who struggle with recognising hunger levels, portion control etc - as someone with ADHD I have to track things because it’s so easy to either binge after forgetting to eat all day or seeing a decent portion as too small. Impulse control and poor feedback in our bodies doesn’t help either. I have to train myself portions using tracking programs, and keep using them because if that inability for me to recognise when I’m full etc.

While I'm still prone to binge episodes (for that sweet sweet dopamine and I realize they're on days I forget to take my meds) calorie counting and tracking has been invaluable on this journey, now with better understanding of myself and the process as a whole

    Honestly Sean the calorie deficit is so important that one time years ago I visited America from Aus and ended up slacking off on training and eating all the shit fast food there. But what happened was I was only eating once a day coz it was so greasy I wasn't hungry after that. After about 5 weeks of eating junk food and only eating once or twice a day I came home looking much much leaner and lost a lot of weight despite the 'unhealthy' fast food diet. Obviously I was in a deficit the whole time.

    I was going to say I’m an intuitive eater now and I generally eat according to cico. I don’t track calories with my phone but I have a genera idea of what I’m putting into my body. I’ve lost over 50 pounds by just going to the gym and eating what I want. Sean mentions that this works until you get a lot leaner. I haven’t gotten to the point where I have to be strict with my calories but it’s very helpful and exactly what I wanted to know. It also makes me think that counting calories isn’t as helpful as people make it out to be when your “trying to loose weight.” He’s right when he says most people can make huge changes(no pun intended) by just correcting prior habits and understanding cico.

    Yo Sean! Any tips when you hit a plateau in progressive overload?

    • @killercontent7688
      @killercontent7688 2 ปีที่แล้ว +64

      Fake Sean here, I assume you are novice so reduce your working weights by 10% and build up from there.
      If you are intermediate, things get a little more tricky. Are you training according to your plan? Not missing workouts? Eating at a calorie surplus and enough proteins? Recovering? Changing the stalled exercises for a while? If you are doing these, you could do double progression or add volume (sets).

      My name is Sean so I'll answer this question. I think the best way to ensure continuous progression and break plateaus is to change your variations. I follow the conjugate method and the main lift rotates every single week, but when you come back to the competition lift you're way stronger than last time you tested it. It's also important to remember that if you can do the same weight for the same reps but it's easier than last time that is still progress and you've adapted. Sometimes the adaptations take longer to result in more weight added.

    Hey Sean , any tips how to prevent muscle loss over a long period of sickness?

    • @DadBodFitness
      @DadBodFitness 2 ปีที่แล้ว +2

      Hey there! I know I'm not Sean but I thought I'd help you out because I've gone through the same thing. Ultimately the best way to prevent muscle loss in that situation is to make sure you're eating enough protein and eating somewhere around your maintenance calories. I'm usually at about 1 g of protein per pound of body weight, or a little bit less. When I'm in a situation like that I make sure to get 1-1.2g or so of protein per pound of body weight. The cool thing is that some of the recent studies have shown that although without any training stimulus there might be a little tiny bit of atrophy, but you can go up to somewhere around 3 to 6 months and still maintain most of your muscle mass. I can't remember the exact number but I know it was around there. All the best to you and I hope you feel better soon! Also remember when you start training again to take it slow. Don't pick up right where you left off. You could even drop the volume per session or even just start with like two days a week of lifting and that will be plenty to get you started again.

    Hey guys I have doubt , does fasted work outs ( specifically weight training ) in the morning burns more calories ? Or should I change it to evening

    • @NapalmThunderbum
      @NapalmThunderbum 2 ปีที่แล้ว

      The environmental circumstances really do not matter. An activity done with the same intensity will always burn the same amount of calories because it is a unit of measurement for energy intake or expenditure. The better question is does weight training fasted in the morning help you train consistently with better intensity and form than doing it in the evening after eating for the day? The answer is subjective for each person. I work out in the morning before eating because it is the best way for me to stay consistent with my schedule. Even though my performance might be more intense in the evening my body will adapt over time to giving better performance in the morning but ultimately its what helps keep me consistent over time. So the only way to burn more calories is to do more work more intensely and more consistently. The circumstances for that are extremely individual and adaptive to what you do the most.
