Common gym mistake/misconception: Using your resistance training to “burn more calories” Let me be very clear… Burning a bunch of calories should NOT be your priority when lifting The objective is to stimulate the muscle groups you’re targeting that day to hopefully build more muscle so you burn (a...

A common misconception (It was in comments only yesterday) is that for every pound of muscle added, you can expect to burn a lot extra calories a day…even while you’re not exercising. Unfortunately, this is wishful thinking... If you want to eat more, you need to move more🙌

Why burning more calories doesn’t always mean fat loss: Burn 500 calories a day, lose a pound a week? Sounds simple, right? Unfortunately, that’s not how human metabolism works. Your body is incredibly adaptive, and over time, it adjusts how many calories you burn. In today’s Perform with Dr. Andy Galpin episode, Dr. Herman Pontzer (Herman Pontzer) of Duke Global Health / Duke Evolutionary Anthropology explains that while you might see an initial drop in weight, your body compensates by slowing down other energy expenditures, so you’re likely burning far fewer extra calories than you think—sometimes just half, sometimes even the same as before. And to be clear, this isn’t about inaccurate calorie burn estimates. We’re talking about real, internal physiological changes your body makes in response to increased energy use. On top of that, not eating the calories you burn is tough. The body naturally drives you to replace that energy, making sustainability the real challenge. So, if you’re not losing weight despite increasing exercise, don’t assume something is ‘broken’—your body is simply adapting, and you may need to adjust your approach. Smart training, sustainable nutrition, and understanding energy balance are key.

That’s one way to burn some calories. Meanwhile the average American burns more calories arguing online than actually moving. Priorities. 😂

You’re not overweight because you’re black. You are overweight likely because you consistently consume more calories than you burn. We need to push less excuses and more personal accountability.

WATER DRINKING HACK: BURN FAT!! Yes, drinking water actually burns calories. Did you know that when you drink 1 liter of water, your body burns 35 calories? So let's assume an average intake of 3 to 4 liters, you will easily burn 100 calories on top of your normal expenditure. How that works is that your body reduces the temperature of the water to the body's core temperature, and that actually burns calories. So if you ever needed any incentive to stay hydrated, think about that. And whenever you are trying to go into a calorie deficit, think about increasing a little bit your water intake. Not only that it creates volume in your stomach, making you less hungry, it actually burns calories. Did you know?

If you’ve only got a few days to train, full-body workouts are the smartest choice. Burn more calories in less time. Hit every major muscle in one session. Build balanced strength. Recover faster with less soreness. Train smarter, not longer.

Yes, doing your cardio fasted burns more body fat. But, if you offset the calories burned, you’ll end up in exactly the same place as somebody who eats before cardio. Put simply, calories in versus calories out matters more than whether you train fasted (w/respect to BF loss).

10. Sleep in a cold room. Lowering your sleep temp to 65°F activates brown fat (your metabolic furnace). You’ll burn more calories while sleeping and wake up more insulin sensitive. Cold sleep = better fat burn.

Beware: Smartwatches, fitness trackers overestimate calorie burn “I burn 700 calories per workout—why am I not losing weight?” If this sounds familiar, here’s the truth: Smartwatches and fitness trackers are not accurate for calorie burn. They can be off by hundreds of calories per day. Relying on them can lead to frustration, confusion, and stalled progress. A better approach: - Track trends, not single-day numbers. - Control both sides of the equation—calories in and calories out. - Stay consistent. If you’re not losing weight, you’re not in a deficit—no matter what your watch says. The safest way to measure a calorie deficit isn’t your smartwatch—it’s results over time. If you’re not losing weight, adjust accordingly.

1. High-intensity interval training (HIIT) You go all-out for short bursts, rest briefly, and repeat. It gets your heart pumping fast and burns tons of calories quickly. Which makes us keep burning calories for up to 24 hours afterward. Great way to burn fat.

There may be NOTHING more insane than using a piece of CARDIO equipment to “target” any muscle not named “the heart” The only way you will put even 1oz of muscle on your Glutes by using the StairMaster is if you’ve spent the last 8 weeks on bed rest To target a muscle….LIFT

OH MY GOD.. there’s about to be a war in the comments after what I said at the end. 😂 Just to clarify for the people who actually care to read. Yes, calories matter. But I care more about where those calories come from. Something can be “X” calories… But if 90% of it is fat, that matters. I don’t just look at total number of calories, I look at the macro split. That way I track my macros properly and don’t have 90% of my calories coming from just fats. Does that make sense? SAVE this video to use next time you’re making a Peanut Butter Sandwich! 🥪
