Partial Transcript: Hello, beautiful people. And welcome back to the show today. We are going to talk about fat loss, maintenance, muscle gain body. Recomposition all of these crazy terms that everyone throws around. And I don't really think that there's much explanation on the basics anymore. And I don't really know why I'm seeing that trend to maybe it's. 

I mean, algorithms are so weird. Maybe I'm seeing something different, but I'm seeing so many common questions under  the videos on complex topics. That are very foundational. And I think that sometimes revisiting the foundations, if you think about who's making content in any industry anybody that is somewhat of an expert or has built a following because of their knowledge on something. That person is in that. Bubble. Every single day. They're only thinking about those things for as long as you think about whatever you work with, whatever you do day to day, whether you have kids and that's that's your life or your job is to manage a bunch of other people. And that takes up all your time. You're doing that thing for the bulk of your hours when you are in, for example, the fitness bubble that I live in. In the fitness bubble, we use ridiculous vernacular and all of these weird words to describe things. And there's different names for the same movements and all of those things, nobody would ever fucking know. Why would you know that I spend all day doing this? So of course I know those things,  what happens is the people making the content, are those people living in the bubbles and the bubble, you forget that the basics in your bubble are not the basics and other people's bubbles. What I really want to do with this is get down to the basics to make sure you understand about these things. Not so much exactly what they are, but really how they apply and what they actually look like in practice. And what if this, and what if that, that's what I want to get into with these things, because I think these terms are thrown around and oftentimes misunderstood or misinterpreted, and it can lead you to just not doing the right things. 

And nobody wants to make mistakes when they're on any sort of like fat. Loss journey or fitness journey wasting time is wasting time. So I'm going to try to not waste any more of yours. Let's get right into it. Let's start with calorie deficit versus, you know, clean, eating, all of that good stuff. 

This is a ridiculous argument. Because to say that one is the most important. Is. Uh, a massive oversimplification. In any way you spin it and you see people that have like very, very influential platforms like preaching that calories are the only thing that matters and sour patch kids for dinner. And I FYM. Or it's like the complete opposite end of the spectrum, like test your blood sugar every time you eat. Cause that's fucking normal. Humans have been around for quite some time, eating, doing things. We weren't testing our blood sugar. There's new foods. There's a, I get it. However to think that only eating bullshit, because it's in the right quantitative amounts of these macronutrients or thinking that every gram of sugar is going to kill you. 

Everything needs to be organic. You can't eat without anxiety. Like everything's clean. Neither are correct. And that's a ridiculous thing to do is to promote that only one or. One is correct.
