Can you supercharge your metabolism and maximize fat loss with LESS exercise? In today's episode, we talk about the four key components of metabolism and debunk the myth that more exercise equals more calories burned. We also dive into the drawbacks of over-exercising and the role muscle tissue plays in boosting metabolism.

We talk about strength and cardio training, underlining the multiple benefits of cardio, from enhancing heart health to boosting lung capacity, while also spotlighting the lesser-known yet equally important gains from walking. Overall, you'll learn how to make your workouts not just rigorous but efficient and sustainable for building muscle, losing fat, and improving your body composition.

Tune in to this episode and tap into the science of getting fit.
