Description

In this week’s episode of the Chasing Clarity Health & Fitness Podcast, I’m back with Lyle McDonald for Part 2 of our conversation on Rapid Fat Loss.


In part one, we broke down the foundations of RFL. Today, we shift gears into the practical side: how to actually run an aggressive fat loss phase without losing muscle or struggling with insatiable hunger.   


Here’s what we cover in this episode:

WHY PROGRESSIVE RESISTANCE TRAINING + HIGH PROTEIN INTAKE ARE NON-NEGOTIABLE FOR MUSCLE RETENTION

WHAT HAPPENS WHEN YOU SKIP LIFTING DURING RFL & WHY IT LEADS TO FAT OVERSHOOTING & RAPID REBOUND

PRACTICAL HUNGER MANAGEMENT TOOLS FROM FOOD SELECTION & CHEWING STRATEGIES TO SUGAR-FREE SWAPS

HOW TO NAVIGATE CRAVINGS & IMPROVE ADHERENCE TO SUCCESSFULLY COMPLETE RFL


This episode is all about taking the guesswork out of rapid fat loss and showing you how to do it the right way while preserving muscle, managing hunger, and maintaining your results long-term.
