    Ep 178 - Why Two People Doing The Exact Same Thing Get Different Results

    Same diet. Same workouts. Same calories. One person drops 30 lbs... The other gains 10. It happens in every weight loss study ever run. Even the Ozempic trials. So what's actually going on? In this replay from a live coaching call, I break down the science of set point theory, your body's "thermostat," and the 2 levers that explain 90% of why some people see results and others don't (hint: it's not your genetics and you can game the system if you know what you're doing). You'll learn: Why "my metabolism is broken" is almost always wrong The 5 ways your body pushes back when you cut calories NEAT, and the 200-600 calories you stop burning without realizing it Thrifty vs. spendthrift bodies (and how to shift toward spendthrift)Why the Big 5 framework hits every controllable variable on purpose Real Q&A on tracking, meal planning, and making "boring" food enjoyable If you're a busy parent over 40 who's tired of watching everyone else cruise while you grind, this is for you.

Here's what nobody selling you a $600 biohacking device wants to admit: the most powerful longevity tools you'll ever use are free. In this video I break down why the boring, unsexy habits you keep putting off are literally building (or draining) your future health -- and why the payoff isn't just for "future you." It starts now.

    Ep. 176 - He Couldn't Walk Half a Block. Now He's Off Insulin and Down 47 Lbs.

    Jeff was pushing 300 pounds, dependent on insulin, and couldn't make it to the corner store without his back giving out. That was his breaking point. In this episode of the Winning at Weight Loss show, Jeff shares the raw, honest story of how he went from rock bottom to losing nearly 50 pounds, dropping his dependency on insulin injections, and hitting his habits like it's second nature. No keto. No crash diet. Just the Big 5 framework and having someone in his corner to keep him going.

    Ep. 173 - How I Feel 21 at 41 (No Biohacks, No BS)

    How I Feel 21 at 41... Most people think feeling young after 40 requires crazy biohacks, expensive supplements, or extreme diets. ---- If you want help dialing in your own nutrition targets, you can grab the starter nutrition kit I mentioned in the video here: 👉 https://www.mitchcalvert.com/calculator ---- It doesn’t. In this video I break down the exact habits I follow to feel 21 at 41 — the simple things that actually move the needle when it comes to energy, strength, and staying lean as you age. We cover: • The Big 5 habits that drive almost all results • Why muscle is the real anti-aging insurance policy • How I structure training, steps, and cardio • My sleep routine and why it matters more than people think • The supplements I actually take (and why most are unnecessary) • How I approach alcohol without wrecking progress None of this is complicated. But it does require focusing on the big rocks instead of the shiny objects the fitness industry loves to sell. If you want help dialing in your own nutrition targets, you can grab the starter nutrition kit I mentioned in the video here: 👉 https://www.mitchcalvert.com/calculator It’ll calculate your calories, protein targets, and give you a simple starting framework so you can start stacking wins right away.
