fat loss after 40

🏃‍♀️ You may have heard the expression that you can't outrun your fork. 

It's true. 

As I covered in the previous episode, burning calories to 'earn' your meals is not a strategy that works very well. 😬

I have a different approach - one which does NOT require you to exercise more to burn more calories.  

In this episode, I explain how this approach to fat loss works. 

I share my top 6 tips for losing fat (not muscle): 

1. Have a WEEKLY calorie target, and hit that
2. Track EVERYTHING that passes your lips
3. Prioritize protein - aiming for 1g/lb of ideal body weight per day
4. Plan your meals
5. Lift weights - to save your muscle!
6. Maintain your non-exercise activity (NEAT) levels

In this episode of 40+ Fitness for Women, I share how I - a 52-year-old post-menopause woman - managed a significant body recomposition in 9 months. My approach included 2 phases: 

1. Weight training in maintenance
2. Fat loss diet

I share what I did over those 9 months, and my results as reported by measuring my body composition using InBody scans which are a bioelectrical impedance analysis. 

I managed to successfully lose fat while getting stronger. I share tips on how I did that (my 7 main focus areas) and also the not-so-pleasant surprise that happened during my diet.
