You Don’t Need to ‘Eat Clean’ (and 5 Other Fat-Loss Myths) | The Unfiltered Athlete Episode 1

If you’ve ever wondered why your fat loss feels harder than it should…
If you’ve been told to “eat clean,” cut carbs, do fasted cardio, or keep slashing calories but still feel stuck…
Or if you’re trying to get leaner without losing your strength, performance, or sanity…this episode is for you!

There’s so much noise out there about what it really takes to lose fat, and most of it makes the process more complicated, restrictive, and miserable than it needs to be.

In this first episode of The Unfiltered Athlete, I’m breaking down six of the biggest myths that are keeping you from feeling AND performing your best - and showing you what to do instead.

In this episode, I share:
• Why you don’t need to eat clean or cut out your favourite foods to lose fat
• Why it’s impossible to ‘spot-reduce’ belly fat (and the truth about what it actually takes to get abs)
• Why eating less ≠ faster results
• The truth about fasted cardio (so you can decide if it’s really worth it)
• Whether it’s possible to build muscle and lose fat at the same time
• The mindset mistakes that sabotage results even when your nutrition and training plan is on point

🎧 Hit play to learn how to approach fat loss with more freedom, flexibility, and focus - so you can finally make progress that lasts without sacrificing your health, happiness, or performance.
