Why 'Eat Less, Move More' Misses the Mark: A Deeper Dive into Health and Fitness

“Eat less, move more.” Sounds simple, right? But if you’ve ever struggled with your health or weight, you know it’s far from that easy. In this episode, we’re unpacking why this oversimplified advice not only misses the mark—but can actually do more harm than good.

We dive into the real, evidence-based reasons why weight management is more complex than a basic calorie equation. From metabolic adaptations and hormonal imbalances to the psychological impact of restriction and the role of social and environmental factors, we’re breaking down what really affects your health.

You’ll also hear how we coach clients toward sustainable results with a more personalized, compassionate approach that considers nutrition quality, joyful movement, mental health, and mindset—not just willpower.

If you're tired of cookie-cutter advice and ready for real strategies that support lasting change, this episode is for you.
