00:00:37.845 --> 00:00:43.545 I was talking to a friend, um, a few months ago who also has a podcast and 00:00:43.545 --> 00:00:45.345 see, I'm already going off on a tangent. 00:00:45.585 --> 00:00:46.755 I'm already going off. 00:00:46.965 --> 00:00:49.635 Is this story on my notes to share with you? 00:00:49.695 --> 00:00:51.135 No, but that's okay. 00:00:51.140 --> 00:00:53.235 'cause this is, this is why we're here, right? 00:00:53.550 --> 00:00:54.810 Are we here for the tangents? 00:00:54.810 --> 00:00:56.070 Are we here for the information? 00:00:56.100 --> 00:00:56.910 A little bit of both. 00:00:57.090 --> 00:00:57.600 I don't know. 00:00:57.690 --> 00:01:01.770 You'd be this judge, but I always go off on tangents anyway. 00:01:02.550 --> 00:01:06.780 It's funny 'cause me and her were talking about our podcast and our 00:01:06.780 --> 00:01:10.490 different podcasts and approaches and she was telling me, well, my 00:01:10.490 --> 00:01:12.590 podcast notes and I'm like, your notes. 00:01:12.860 --> 00:01:14.840 And she's like, well, yeah. 00:01:16.220 --> 00:01:18.860 I write down like what I'm gonna talk about and what I'm gonna say 00:01:18.860 --> 00:01:21.980 and the points I'm gonna make, and some like things I'm gonna share. 00:01:21.980 --> 00:01:25.520 I'm like, oh, oh, okay. 00:01:25.520 --> 00:01:27.230 That's probably a smart thing to do. 00:01:28.790 --> 00:01:30.740 I usually start out with a question. 00:01:31.850 --> 00:01:36.860 Somebody has a question about, fat loss, building muscle, and then I 00:01:36.860 --> 00:01:42.530 honestly usually just share what I know off the top of my head. 00:01:42.530 --> 00:01:47.810 Now, sometimes I will be like, oh, I'm talking about this study, so I should 00:01:47.810 --> 00:01:51.770 have this study in front of me, and maybe I'll share like quotes there. 00:01:52.160 --> 00:01:57.020 But it was just so funny as she's talking about, well, yeah, you, you write out 00:01:57.020 --> 00:02:01.790 the flow of the show and you, you write out this and that, and the main points. 00:02:01.795 --> 00:02:06.470 I'm like, oh, is that why your show is so much better than mine? 00:02:06.470 --> 00:02:06.650 Mine? 00:02:07.310 --> 00:02:10.940 It's just a compilation of Lindsay's tangents. 00:02:12.170 --> 00:02:15.095 So, so I'm, I'm doing it guys. 00:02:15.245 --> 00:02:16.775 I have it written down. 00:02:16.775 --> 00:02:20.705 Is this, is this what it feels like to be like a grownup, an adult? 00:02:20.765 --> 00:02:22.025 We do things like this. 00:02:22.025 --> 00:02:25.985 We, we have like structure to our lives. 00:02:26.555 --> 00:02:28.085 We plan things out. 00:02:28.085 --> 00:02:30.725 This is just not the, the Lindsay Parker way. 00:02:31.145 --> 00:02:35.345 I usually just fly by the seat of my pants, I'm not gonna lie. 00:02:36.165 --> 00:02:36.705 Anyways. 00:02:36.855 --> 00:02:40.095 It is really funny how we live our lives sometimes. 00:02:41.385 --> 00:02:43.005 So here we go guys. 00:02:44.175 --> 00:02:47.445 We are gonna be talking today about, I love how I'm like, I'm 00:02:47.450 --> 00:02:50.325 gonna keep this under 10 minutes and I have already wasted two and a 00:02:50.330 --> 00:02:52.275 half minutes on a tangent already. 00:02:52.280 --> 00:02:53.265 This is gonna be fun. 00:02:53.655 --> 00:02:56.895 This is, this is, but you're, you're here, you're in it. 00:02:56.925 --> 00:03:00.345 I guess you, you could leave at any moment, but this is gonna be really cool. 00:03:00.345 --> 00:03:02.865 You don't wanna leave because we are gonna be talking about the difference 00:03:02.865 --> 00:03:07.590 between burning fat versus fat loss. 00:03:08.585 --> 00:03:08.875 What? 00:03:09.300 --> 00:03:09.420 Now? 00:03:09.420 --> 00:03:11.635 I know some of you're sitting there thinking, wait, wait, wait. 00:03:11.640 --> 00:03:17.010 It's, it's the same thing, Lindsay, are we just splitting hairs? 00:03:17.790 --> 00:03:18.330 No. 00:03:18.360 --> 00:03:18.900 No, we're not. 00:03:18.900 --> 00:03:22.230 In fact, I actually think that this is an important topic. 00:03:22.770 --> 00:03:25.530 I really do enjoy educating you guys. 00:03:25.830 --> 00:03:32.610 I want you guys to go into social media world being so educated. 00:03:32.985 --> 00:03:35.475 You can call BS as soon as you see it. 00:03:35.955 --> 00:03:40.725 That is really, really important because you have to understand, um, 00:03:40.755 --> 00:03:42.585 I'm very picky about who I follow. 00:03:42.885 --> 00:03:48.045 I try not to spend a ton of time on social media, so to be honest, I don't, 00:03:48.855 --> 00:03:59.145 I don't realize at times I can be naive to the amount of horrific, information 00:03:59.235 --> 00:04:04.905 that's being pedaled by people who have literally millions of followers. 00:04:05.385 --> 00:04:12.945 And I, I did kind of get lost in a rabbit hole the other day where I was shocked, 00:04:13.815 --> 00:04:22.395 literally shocked by the horrific bad information that, and this person. 00:04:23.580 --> 00:04:27.900 Their information got like 150,000 likes. 00:04:29.370 --> 00:04:37.900 Like we are not educated enough in general on health and fitness to be 00:04:37.900 --> 00:04:43.750 able to navigate the marketplace of ideas that is TikTok and Instagram 00:04:43.750 --> 00:04:47.890 and all of that, meaning that anybody who has an idea has a voice. 00:04:49.000 --> 00:04:56.815 We are just, general population, just not educated enough to spot poor 00:04:56.815 --> 00:04:58.435 information from good information. 00:04:59.665 --> 00:05:05.425 And I was even, uh, following a friend and she posted this podcast by 00:05:06.145 --> 00:05:14.005 probably one of the worst health, um, I, I don't even know what to call him. 00:05:15.025 --> 00:05:19.285 He, he pedals the worst health information. 00:05:20.545 --> 00:05:22.795 I mean, it is horrific. 00:05:22.825 --> 00:05:25.225 And she's like, this is the best podcast ever. 00:05:25.465 --> 00:05:26.785 Everybody needs to listen to this. 00:05:26.785 --> 00:05:27.775 And I'm like, no. 00:05:28.585 --> 00:05:30.085 A piece of my soul is dying. 00:05:31.495 --> 00:05:35.515 And I, I, I never know, like, should I reach out and be like, just so 00:05:35.515 --> 00:05:41.495 you understand, he cherry picks information in studies, literally 00:05:41.495 --> 00:05:48.310 quotes, parts of studies where the researchers are saying, this is 00:05:48.310 --> 00:05:50.740 the bad information, this sentence. 00:05:50.740 --> 00:05:53.110 And he goes, oh, see, this study says this. 00:05:53.500 --> 00:05:58.300 Literally like, whew, piece of my soldier dies. 00:05:59.470 --> 00:06:02.710 So I really want to help educate people so that they can, they can 00:06:02.710 --> 00:06:04.120 filter through poor information. 00:06:04.870 --> 00:06:08.620 Now, burning fat, like I said, is not the same as fat loss. 00:06:09.220 --> 00:06:10.900 And why is this an important topic? 00:06:11.080 --> 00:06:13.120 Well, because we are inundated with. 00:06:13.480 --> 00:06:19.000 Uh, diet saying this diet will burn more fat. 00:06:20.440 --> 00:06:26.740 That's, that may be true, but does that equal more fat loss? 00:06:26.980 --> 00:06:27.580 No. 00:06:29.200 --> 00:06:34.360 This exercise program will quote, unquote, burn more fat. 00:06:34.480 --> 00:06:39.130 That may be true, but then why are these people coming to me saying, 00:06:39.580 --> 00:06:42.310 I'm doing all the fat burning diets? 00:06:42.640 --> 00:06:46.210 Exercise, why aren't I losing body fat? 00:06:46.420 --> 00:06:48.610 Because they're actually different. 00:06:49.630 --> 00:06:53.170 So let's really dive into this, break this down, find out why. 00:06:53.260 --> 00:06:55.930 So let's, let's start by defining terms. 00:06:56.890 --> 00:06:58.060 What does fat loss actually mean? 00:06:58.660 --> 00:07:03.790 Fat loss is the reduction in body fat. 00:07:04.900 --> 00:07:07.810 Fat burning is something else. 00:07:08.905 --> 00:07:10.045 Fat burning. 00:07:10.045 --> 00:07:17.695 Is that the process of dietary fat or stored body fat being used 00:07:17.815 --> 00:07:22.195 as an energy source in the body? 00:07:22.945 --> 00:07:25.105 And we're gonna break this down even further 'cause I wanna 00:07:25.110 --> 00:07:27.685 make sure that you understand. 00:07:28.655 --> 00:07:32.405 So let's talk about fat metabolism. 00:07:33.675 --> 00:07:43.530 So fat stored in our bodies in fat cells in the form of triglycerides. 00:07:44.970 --> 00:07:53.190 Triglycerides are a glycerol molecule and three fatty acid changed. 00:07:53.430 --> 00:07:54.870 So they're kind of hooked. 00:07:54.900 --> 00:07:56.040 They're hooked together. 00:07:56.190 --> 00:08:00.390 You can think of the glycerol as the backbone and hooking these 00:08:00.420 --> 00:08:02.340 fatty acid chains together. 00:08:03.960 --> 00:08:09.690 Step one of the quote unquote fat burning process. 00:08:09.930 --> 00:08:13.980 Step one is lipolysis. 00:08:14.940 --> 00:08:21.060 It is the breakdown of the triglyceride, so it's splitting the glycerol 00:08:21.300 --> 00:08:23.880 backbone from the fatty acid shades. 00:08:25.200 --> 00:08:31.140 So there are now free fatty acids that are distributed into the bloodstream. 00:08:33.105 --> 00:08:36.675 Step two is called beta oxidation. 00:08:38.265 --> 00:08:42.975 This is in the mitochondria, the breakdown of fatty acids 00:08:42.980 --> 00:08:45.705 to be used as a TP as energy. 00:08:46.635 --> 00:08:52.515 This is when they are referring, referring to, um. 00:08:52.860 --> 00:08:53.940 Burning fat. 00:08:54.180 --> 00:08:55.620 This is the process. 00:08:55.800 --> 00:08:57.750 Now, step three is just kind of an interesting one. 00:08:57.750 --> 00:08:59.100 I just kinda wanna throw it out there. 00:08:59.220 --> 00:09:01.380 There's, this is very, very basic. 00:09:01.385 --> 00:09:04.200 There's a lot of steps going on in between all of this, but these 00:09:04.200 --> 00:09:07.830 are, these are the basic ones that I feel like you need to understand. 00:09:08.070 --> 00:09:10.860 Lipolysis is the breakdown of triglycerides that are 00:09:10.860 --> 00:09:13.110 being stored in the fat cells. 00:09:13.530 --> 00:09:15.180 Now it goes out to the bloodstream. 00:09:15.360 --> 00:09:20.430 Then you have beta oxidation that's happening in the mitochondria. 00:09:21.315 --> 00:09:26.325 It's breaking down the fatty acids to be used as energy. 00:09:26.685 --> 00:09:29.625 Now I just kind of wanna throw this in there 'cause I think it's really fun. 00:09:29.925 --> 00:09:32.325 The byproducts of fat metabolism. 00:09:33.015 --> 00:09:34.215 How does it leave your body? 00:09:34.215 --> 00:09:35.295 Have you ever wondered that? 00:09:35.775 --> 00:09:41.415 How does, how does this actually, okay, so it's used as, as energy. 00:09:41.445 --> 00:09:43.125 How does it leave the body? 00:09:44.145 --> 00:09:49.995 Well, it, it leaves it in a few ways as water through your skin when you sweat. 00:09:51.465 --> 00:09:52.845 Kidneys when you urinate. 00:09:53.775 --> 00:09:53.925 Okay? 00:09:53.925 --> 00:10:01.095 So it's actually leaving through sweat and, and peeing out in the morning. 00:10:01.095 --> 00:10:05.145 When you go to the bathroom and you're peeing, you are releasing 00:10:05.150 --> 00:10:06.705 the byproducts of fat metabolism. 00:10:07.065 --> 00:10:07.725 Isn't that so funny? 00:10:07.725 --> 00:10:09.165 This is how fat leaves the body. 00:10:09.615 --> 00:10:13.905 It also leaves the body as carbon, uh, carbon dioxide, CO2, through 00:10:13.905 --> 00:10:14.925 your lungs when you breathe. 00:10:16.095 --> 00:10:16.545 So. 00:10:17.415 --> 00:10:20.355 Those are ways that it, then the byproducts leave. 00:10:20.595 --> 00:10:20.955 Right. 00:10:21.875 --> 00:10:25.955 So now I've gone through burning fat, and you're like, okay, Lins. 00:10:26.195 --> 00:10:27.365 Like I, I get that. 00:10:28.955 --> 00:10:33.965 So we're burning body fat from the sa fat cells. 00:10:34.835 --> 00:10:37.175 Well, that, that leads to fat loss. 00:10:37.985 --> 00:10:39.695 It is a piece of the puzzle. 00:10:40.085 --> 00:10:40.535 Yes. 00:10:41.765 --> 00:10:48.485 Just because you burn fat does not mean your body will see a 00:10:48.485 --> 00:10:51.965 reduction of overall body fat. 00:10:52.175 --> 00:10:56.045 So it's super important to understand that fat storage and fat burning 00:10:56.105 --> 00:10:57.965 are not static systems in the body. 00:10:58.115 --> 00:11:00.425 We actually go back and forth between. 00:11:00.860 --> 00:11:05.150 Burning fat, storing fat, burning fat, storing fat. 00:11:05.630 --> 00:11:10.940 You are fluctuating back and forth between fat burning and fat storing all day. 00:11:11.720 --> 00:11:17.690 Now, how much fat loss we see depends on who wins? 00:11:17.815 --> 00:11:24.260 Do you get more fat storage or more fat oxidation? 00:11:24.970 --> 00:11:27.370 Which do we get more of? 00:11:29.215 --> 00:11:30.415 Think about it this way. 00:11:30.415 --> 00:11:31.825 I'm a very visual person. 00:11:32.845 --> 00:11:33.775 Think about it this way. 00:11:36.355 --> 00:11:43.705 If you had a big bucket and it is full to the very, very top of water, think 00:11:43.710 --> 00:11:48.985 about that as fat storage, and you're like, well, I wanna see this reduced. 00:11:48.985 --> 00:11:53.815 I wanna see the reduction, so I'm gonna poke a hole in it in the bottom. 00:11:54.880 --> 00:12:00.970 That is kind of, that, that fat metabolism, the, the, uh, burning fat and 00:12:00.970 --> 00:12:08.440 it starts seeping out and you start seeing the reduction in these fat cells, right? 00:12:08.440 --> 00:12:09.820 You start seeing the water come down. 00:12:11.740 --> 00:12:17.470 But the, the problem with that is, like I said, it's not just the body's in a 00:12:17.470 --> 00:12:19.330 state of constantly burning fat all day. 00:12:19.900 --> 00:12:22.900 It goes back and forth between storing and using. 00:12:23.140 --> 00:12:28.090 Storing using, it's the same exact thing as with with protein and 00:12:28.090 --> 00:12:31.120 aminos and turnovers turnover, right? 00:12:31.720 --> 00:12:33.820 So, and it's the same exact principle. 00:12:34.940 --> 00:12:44.720 So as this water comes out, you also have water coming in, and if the rate is equal. 00:12:46.505 --> 00:12:49.385 Then the, the water is gonna stay near the top. 00:12:49.385 --> 00:12:50.645 Nothing will change. 00:12:50.915 --> 00:12:55.625 If the rate of water coming in is equal to the rate of water going out, 00:12:56.225 --> 00:12:59.555 then actually nothing will change. 00:13:00.905 --> 00:13:06.095 So this is that whole energy out. 00:13:06.965 --> 00:13:12.935 If it's equal to energy coming in, then you are going to maintain. 00:13:13.820 --> 00:13:16.280 You're gonna maintain your weight, your body fat. 00:13:18.200 --> 00:13:25.790 Now, if we slow down the rate of water coming in and the rate of water going 00:13:25.820 --> 00:13:32.990 out is higher, then you are going to see the water come down, down, down, down. 00:13:33.620 --> 00:13:35.690 You are going to see fat loss. 00:13:36.680 --> 00:13:40.910 So at the end of the day, that illustration is showing. 00:13:41.480 --> 00:13:48.890 It still comes down to energy out needs to exceed the amount of 00:13:48.890 --> 00:13:52.070 energy coming in AKA food coming in. 00:13:53.180 --> 00:13:58.280 So you can't just sign up for, oh, well this certain nutrition 00:13:58.760 --> 00:14:05.720 plan says that all lose, I'll burn more fat by eating this way. 00:14:05.720 --> 00:14:06.830 So I'm just gonna eat that way. 00:14:07.070 --> 00:14:09.080 Well, you still have to be in a calorie deficit. 00:14:10.055 --> 00:14:14.345 Body still has to, at the end of the day, the end of the week, the end of the 00:14:14.345 --> 00:14:17.435 month, be in an overall energy deficit. 00:14:18.635 --> 00:14:21.935 Well, I'm gonna sign up for this, this program, because it says 00:14:21.935 --> 00:14:25.145 it's a fat loss program, or it says it's burning, burning fat. 00:14:27.155 --> 00:14:33.335 It may, but at the end of the day, it may increase the hole so 00:14:33.335 --> 00:14:36.635 that the rate of water coming out. 00:14:37.595 --> 00:14:38.165 Faster. 00:14:38.405 --> 00:14:44.105 But at the end of the day, if you turn the the sink up and are eating 00:14:44.165 --> 00:14:48.005 just as much as it's going out, you're not gonna lose body fat. 00:14:49.235 --> 00:14:51.995 So that's why I think that this topic is actually really important 00:14:53.135 --> 00:14:59.345 because I really want to drill home this idea that just because a program 00:14:59.345 --> 00:15:05.195 promises, um, you're gonna burn fat, doesn't mean you will lose. 00:15:06.065 --> 00:15:12.575 Body fat just because a diet says, well, you'll burn more fat doing 00:15:12.605 --> 00:15:18.815 keto because this is what your body is now becoming adapted to, 00:15:18.845 --> 00:15:20.915 is utilizing and burning more fat. 00:15:21.125 --> 00:15:24.820 Yes, that is 100% true, but at the end of the day, if you are not in 00:15:24.965 --> 00:15:31.805 a calorie deficit in in this diet approach, then you will not see 00:15:32.525 --> 00:15:33.935 the fat loss that you want to. 00:15:35.660 --> 00:15:40.070 So just because you're fat adapted doesn't mean it's the same principle 00:15:40.070 --> 00:15:47.360 as when people say, well, if you do fasted cardio during that time 00:15:47.360 --> 00:15:50.570 period, you will burn more body fat. 00:15:52.400 --> 00:15:52.880 True. 00:15:53.150 --> 00:15:58.760 But at the end of the day, if the amount of nutrition coming in is matching the 00:15:58.760 --> 00:16:03.650 amount of calories being burned, it doesn't matter when you do the cardio. 00:16:04.460 --> 00:16:07.910 It doesn't matter that you are quote unquote burning 00:16:08.150 --> 00:16:10.820 more body fat at that time. 00:16:11.990 --> 00:16:17.870 At the end of the day, it is still about energy balance can, and that's 00:16:17.870 --> 00:16:24.800 why it is so important to really focus on to controlling energy balance, 00:16:25.670 --> 00:16:28.700 not by what more can I do in the gym? 00:16:29.120 --> 00:16:31.400 How many hours can I add to. 00:16:32.120 --> 00:16:34.370 Cardio this week to burn more. 00:16:35.300 --> 00:16:37.670 Most of us don't have that time. 00:16:38.390 --> 00:16:39.230 We just don't. 00:16:39.230 --> 00:16:45.290 And to be honest, if I have extra time, I don't want to be 00:16:45.295 --> 00:16:47.720 spending it doing those things. 00:16:47.720 --> 00:16:50.001 Now, somebody else might, they might really enjoy it. 00:16:51.170 --> 00:16:55.100 Me personally, if, if somebody said, Hey, Lindsay, here's an extra 00:16:55.100 --> 00:17:00.715 hour, two hours a day, I would be like, I am going to, this is okay. 00:17:01.145 --> 00:17:01.925 I wanna sleep. 00:17:02.915 --> 00:17:04.235 I wanna spend time with my family. 00:17:04.235 --> 00:17:05.855 Like honestly, that's where my mind goes. 00:17:05.855 --> 00:17:09.515 I want more sleep and I want more time with my kids or my husband. 00:17:09.695 --> 00:17:12.635 Like that's what I want to connections and sleep. 00:17:12.635 --> 00:17:14.255 Those are my most important things in my life. 00:17:15.798 --> 00:17:18.408 So I really hope that this has helped. 00:17:18.468 --> 00:17:19.278 Open your eyes. 00:17:19.578 --> 00:17:25.248 Next time you see somebody promise a fat burning diet, fat burning 00:17:26.148 --> 00:17:28.578 training program, you now know. 00:17:29.688 --> 00:17:34.488 That it doesn't matter how much fat burning you induce if, 00:17:34.758 --> 00:17:37.248 because here's another thing too that we didn't even talk about. 00:17:38.328 --> 00:17:44.628 Usually the more fat burning, the, the more calories you burn throughout the day 00:17:45.828 --> 00:17:51.348 for the first few days, your, your body, uh, as far as hunger may remain the same, 00:17:52.068 --> 00:17:58.758 but after a few days after a week, what happens is your body really does want 00:17:59.553 --> 00:18:00.513 energy balance. 00:18:01.023 --> 00:18:03.813 And so it's like, oh, I've noticed that your body doesn't care 00:18:03.813 --> 00:18:05.223 that you want to lose body fat. 00:18:05.493 --> 00:18:09.753 It just cares about survival and perpetuating our species, our species 00:18:09.933 --> 00:18:11.853 that is literally all it cares about. 00:18:12.513 --> 00:18:19.983 And so if, if it notices this dip in, in energy levels, this dip of you are 00:18:19.983 --> 00:18:23.073 using a ton of quote unquote fat burning. 00:18:23.493 --> 00:18:27.843 Gonna say, oh, okay, I need to send more hunger to this person. 00:18:27.993 --> 00:18:30.783 Hunger signals so that we can eat more. 00:18:30.903 --> 00:18:31.983 They, they need to eat more. 00:18:33.633 --> 00:18:36.663 And so then all of a sudden you find that no matter how much you're burning, 00:18:37.473 --> 00:18:38.973 well now you're just hungry for more. 00:18:39.723 --> 00:18:40.563 You're just eating more. 00:18:42.663 --> 00:18:45.993 So that's how the body kind of, no, we're gonna manage this. 00:18:45.993 --> 00:18:49.713 We're gonna manage energy, and we are grateful for these systems, guys. 00:18:49.803 --> 00:18:52.113 These are, these are blessings in our lives, actually. 00:18:52.458 --> 00:18:58.518 The body knows what it's doing, so it really wants to keep energy balance. 00:18:58.998 --> 00:19:08.988 This is why I say that the, the best way to actually manage and drop body fat, 00:19:09.588 --> 00:19:17.568 lose fat is going to be by controlling and being more mindful of the energy 00:19:17.628 --> 00:19:21.588 coming in, the calories coming in. 00:19:23.028 --> 00:19:28.788 That's actually going to be a much better way because you can't control 00:19:28.788 --> 00:19:34.038 the hormone shifts that are going to increase your hunger because it, 00:19:34.098 --> 00:19:36.408 the body wants, uh, balance, right?
