Ep 33A way to reduce belly fat with fasting while keeping muscle mass – New research brings a paradigm shift + 21 days of prayer and fasting

Fasting is an incredible tool to use when you want to get rid of visceral belly fat, but many of us may feel hesitant because we want to preserve the muscle mass we work so hard at growing and protecting. If you find yourself in this conundrum, this episode is for you. Today I share about a way to fast by reducing calories but maintaining protein intake. New research from 2025 shows that protein intake does not seem to inhibit autophagy the way we thought. (Study cited here: High protein does not change autophagy in human PBMCs after 1 hour - https://doi.org/10.1172/jci.insight.188845) This means that we can get the biological benefits of autophagy with fasting while still maintaining protein intake. This is great news! This episode is for you if you: - Want to get rid of visceral belly fat by using fasting while maintaining muscle - Are a Christian who wants to fast without losing physical strength Come in the free community to let me know if you would like to join me for 21 days of prayer and fasting this year. > https://www.facebook.com/groups/1756243071642022 Ready to take action?

Ep 31Looking back to move forward: the system I use every year to find focus and level up in every area of my life

No matter your age, there are so many peaks in your life still ahead of you. The moment you stop believing it is the moment you initiate decline. Most people age in their mind first. We start getting old the moment we tell ourselves "My best days are behind me". We start getting old the moment we tell ourselves "It’s ok to be inside more, it's ok to move less". And sadly, I see some dear people go into retirement with the mindset : “I’ve worked my whole life, I can relax”, spend their days watching TV, not doing much else. But the truth is, those of us who take control and take action rise to higher and higher levels of fitness. Aging in strength, aging with purpose and aging with impact is possible when we spend time creating a vision for our life. The end of the year is a great time for reflection, and the best season to start planning your next ascension. Today, I invite you to look back to move forward with my 3-step process to approach your next peak: 1. Review 2. Refocus 3. Redirect Get your journal and make sure you take notes. You will want to bookmark this episode for next year too. Ready to take action?

Ep 30The Naughty and Nice list of body fat and muscle for men and women in their 40s

Body composition is your muscle-to-fat ratio and it is predictive of our longevity. People with highest muscle mass and ideal body fat live the longest and have the highest quality of life as they age. Ideally, men carry around 15% body fat and women around 20%. Studies find that healthy men carry more than 40% of their body weight as muscle and for women more than 34%. Finally, with body fat, it's not just total percentage that matters but also location. Visceral fat is the type of fat that gets stored deep inside our abdomen: what shows as belly fat in men, and in women at menopause. And visceral fat is deadly. Linked to cardiovascular disease and metabolic dysfunction, it is associated with an increase in mortality risk of 10% for every 10cm above normal around the waist . Instead of focusing on body weight and weight loss, we get greater returns on our health and longevity when we focus on body composition aka muscle-to-fat ratio. In this episode you will hear: - How hard is it really to achieve ideal body composition? - What hurts body composition: the Naughty list for body fat, belly fat and muscle mass. - What everyone can do to improve body composition: the Nice list for body fat, belly fat and muscle mass. - What you need more than working hard and replacing your time on the treadmill. Listen to the end to get the blueprint for re-composing your body, and looking your best this new year. Ready to take action?

Ep 293 simple tweaks you can make in your habits to keep losing belly fat and building muscle - Winter Proof series

It is the winter and we all hit this place: lower mood, lower energy, lower motivation, and lower will power because we are exposed to temptations every time we go to the store and see the box of Christmas cookies,... I really encourage you to listen to the last 5 episodes of this podcast (From #23 to #28) for more tweaks and SMALL things you can do that can make a BIG difference. Feeling better, improving our body composition, and losing belly fat are not so much about changing everything you’re doing, as much as putting the reps in the small things. It’s also not all about removing, restricting or going monk mode. Instead it's about the small daily actions you take day in and day out. And in this episode, I will give you 3 small things you can add to your routine, from something that only takes 20 seconds per day (literally) to some things highly enjoyable. They will help you continue losing weight and energize you against the winter blues. Ready to play life on your A-game? Ready to take action?
