38m | Jan 26, 2026

🧐 Ever wonder why your workouts aren’t paying off?  

You’re not alone! Many of us hit the gym hard but don’t see the results we want. What if I told you that the Hadza tribe, known for their active lifestyle, burns the same calories as someone sitting at a desk? 🤯  

Let’s dive into the science behind metabolism and energy availability. It’s time to rethink the ‘move more, eat less’ mantra and understand how our bodies truly work!  

I dive into:

  • The Hazda Tribe study and how it changed the way we view exercise and calories
  • How your metabolism adapts and why it is not "broken"
  • The importance of muscle mass
  • Practical steps to have a healthier 2026
