Ep. 101 How Your Body Actually Burns Fat (And How You Can Keep It Moving Instead Of Hitting Plateaus)
Episode Summary:
In this unfiltered episode, Nikki reveals what most weight loss programs won’t: that quick-fix diets and aggressive calorie cuts wreck your metabolism and waste your muscle. She breaks down how your body actually burns fat (hint: it’s not from starving), why strength training is essential, and how to finally lose weight in a way your body can sustain. From perimenopause to metabolic slowdowns, Nikki walks through real case studies and photos of women who’ve lost fat without losing their muscle—or their minds. This episode is your crash course in body recomposition and metabolic strategy, no matter your age.
