Description: In this episode, we break down what’s really happening when progress seems to stall and how to know whether you’re actually in a plateau or just feeling impatient. We talk through the most common reasons fat loss slows down, the habits that quietly add up, and why simply doing “more” is rarely the answer. This conversation focuses on sustainable strategies, realistic expectations, and the mindset shifts required to move forward without burning yourself out.We talk about:-How to tell if you’re truly in a plateau-The difference between perceived stalls and real metabolic adaptation-Why protein intake matters more than most people think-“Bites, licks, and tastes” that derail progress-The role hormones play in fat loss-Why strength training is non-negotiable-Choosing direction over speed-Why lasting results require an identity shiftTime Stamps: 0:00 Introduction1:23 how to know if you’re in a plateau6:26 metrics you should track11:16 metabolic adaptation17:06 when you’re ACTUALLY in a plateau 26:40 realistic expectation for fat loss32:00 your dream body weighs more than you think it does38:45 dropping the mental burdenCONNECT WITH KAIT:Four Phase Course: https://www.skool.com/4-phase-body-transformation-9674/about?ref=df07484c52f048a59dac76c46465bd791:1 Coaching: https://form.jotform.com/241375086805157IG: https://www.instagram.com/kaitannmichelle/Email: https://go.maverickonlinecoaching.net/mailing-listFree FB Community: https://www.facebook.com/share/g/18fyYCSZgn/?mibextid=K35XfPCONNECT WITH MAVERICK:Four Phase Course: https://www.skool.com/4-phase-body-transformation-9674/about?ref=df07484c52f048a59dac76c46465bd791:1 Coaching: https://form.jotform.com/241375086805157IG: https://www.instagram.com/the.willetts/ Hosted on Acast.
