In this episode we are introducing the basic components of human metabolism relative to total daily energy expenditure (TDEE) aka "calorie burn" or how many calories we are burning on any given day. There are many misunderstandings when it comes to metabolism, so in this episode we break down the 4 components of TDEE including our basal metabolic rate, exercise activity thermogenesis, non-exercise activity thermogenesis, and thermic effect of food. We discuss how they contribute to our metabolism, the variables that impact them, and how to make lifestyle changes to increase TDEE. We also discuss energy balance and highlight the importance of fueling adequately to avoid metabolic adaptation, poor performance/recovery, and other health issues.
