The human body, despite being very adaptable, was not made to be super lean or to lose a big amount of fat. Its primary goal is to keep functioning no matter what. When you enter a sustainable fat loss phase, your metabolism will regulate itself, focusing mainly on survival. At the same time, a super restricted diet will also influence the metabolism – that’s why an individual eating too little will have trouble burning fat. In this episode, Jason explains the concept of metabolic alteration, metabolic damage, and how you can recover from it with the right tools. In this episode you will learn: What a super restricted diet will do to your metabolism and why it’s so important to consider all the variables when entering a fat loss phase. Connect with me!
