22: Fat Burning Training

Hello my friends! On today’s episode I am discussing metabolic flexibility, and why it does NOT take a magic potion to burn both fat and carbs efficiently! Tune in to find our why we tend to live in a perpetual carb burning mode, and how to teach the body to enter fat burning using real food, fasting, and common sense. Don’t train your body to become reliant on a program that you can’t sustain. My view is, let’s train it for the long haul!

SHOW NOTES

(0:00) Intro

(0:44) Welcome friends!

o Introducing today’s topic: Fat Burning Training!

o   Join the club: Feast 2 Fast is a 4-week metabolic makeover that trains the body to burn both fat and carbs.

(1:14) Why carbs are what most people burn…

o   We tend to live in a perpetual carb burning mode because people serious underestimate their carb intake.

o   Two things we need to understand:

  • All carbs breakdown into sugar.

  • The body will burn carbs before it burns fat.

o   People seriously underestimate the amount of carbs they are getting.

o   The body will burn carbs before it burns fat.

o   It is too easy to eat more carbs than you realize.

(2:28) The first step in teaching your body to use fat…dial back on the carbs.

o   Dialing back does not mean plummeting them into non-existence!

o   The fault with going with the extremes:

  • Difficult to sustain

  • Makes the body unable to process a normal carb load

o   Ketogenic diet 

(3:44) Falling into the temptation of “diets” and “systems” that are generally vague

o   Marketing ploys on social media

o   Throwing out the fishing line so that you’ll bite!

(4:49) Voice of Reason:

o   Can you sustain this?

o   Don’t train your body in a way that it becomes reliant on something you can’t sustain.

o   My view is, let’s train it for the long haul!

o   It does not take a magic potion to burn both fat and carbs efficiently.

o   I am fat burning right now as we speak!

(6:15) Using food, fasting, and common sense

o   Metabolic flexibility

o   Keep carb intake at a low to moderate level.

o   Carbohydrate range can be anywhere from 30-100 grams.

o   Intermittent fasting: 12-16 hours without eating between dinner and breakfast allows your body the opportunity to burn fat.

o   Feast 2 Fast

(8:15) My special spin on Feast 2 Fast: putting God first.

(8:35) Back to School Reboot starts on August 19th!!!

o   Who else needs God and good health practices!?

o   Let the fat burning training begin!
