Here’s what you can expect from this episode:

Has the scale stopped moving, and now you’re wondering if you’ve hit a fat loss plateau? Before you make drastic decisions about your diet and workouts, you need to listen to this episode. 

I thought it’d be super helpful to break down what a fat loss plateau actually is and what it isn’t. We’ll explore how to recognize if you’re actually experiencing a plateau. I’ll also provide five key tips to help you overcome a fat loss plateau and explain when maybe it’s time to stop eating in a deficit and reverse diet if you actually have hit a plateau.

Whether you need help breaking through your plateau or know if you have hit one, this episode is for you.

Topics covered on knowing if you’ve hit a fat loss plateau:

• Why weight fluctuations are normal and why they don’t always mean you’re at a plateau
• How focusing on fat loss rather than weight loss can save your muscle mass
• Why drastic measures like calorie cuts or excessive exercise can backfire
• How to reevaluate your macros, especially protein intake, to match your progress and metabolism for sustained fat loss
