    HOW TO LOSE FAT AND BUILD MUSCLE OR TONE UP

    💡 STOP GUESSING YOUR LUNCH: Stood in the supermarket aisle with five minutes to spare? Grab my free Meal Deal Survival Guide and build a high-protein lunch that actually fills you up, in any UK shop, in under 30 seconds 👉 mealdeal.carrd.co You’ve been told you have to pick one. Bulk or cut. Build or lose. Pick a lane. It’s rubbish, and it has been for about a decade. You can lose fat and build muscle at the same time. What nobody tells you is that it works brilliantly for three types of person and barely at all for a fourth, and knowing which one you are decides everything else you do. In this episode: The four groups, and why most people put themselves in the wrong one.The best position in the entire sport, and why hardly anyone realises they’re in it.Why being further from your goal makes this bit easier, not harder.The study where two groups ate the same calories and did the same training, and only one of them built muscle.Why 140g of protein can do two completely different jobs depending on when you eat it.The reason your deficit is probably too big, and what losing faster actually costs you.Why your class might not be doing what you think it’s doing.What decides whether the weight you lose comes off as fat or as muscle. This is the one nobody mentions and it isn’t food.And why, if this is working properly, the scale will barely move at all.SEND ME YOUR QUESTIONS A lot of you found this podcast through a sticker in a gym, which was either the best or worst marketing decision I’ve ever made. DM me on Instagram @paulthenutritionist with questions on whatever you’re stuck on. Protein, training, why the scale won’t move, what to eat before a 6am session. I read all of them, I answer as many as I can, and the best ones become episodes...

    Life Hacks: More Focus, More Energy, Less Stress

    💡 STOP GUESSING YOUR LUNCH: Stood in the supermarket aisle with five minutes to spare? Grab Paul’s free Meal Deal Survival Guide and build a high-protein lunch that actually fills you up, in any UK shop, in under 30 seconds 👉 mealdeal.carrd.co You get the same number of hours as everybody else. The question is how many of them you actually get anything out of. Most people lose a big chunk of theirs to things they’ve never thought to question. Not laziness, not a lack of discipline. Just habits that quietly cost a few per cent each, over and over, until by three o’clock there’s nothing left in the tank. This is the fix, and it’s not what the internet tells you it is. No 4am starts. No £200 gadget. No system that takes a fortnight to set up. Small, unglamorous changes. Most take under a minute. All of them Paul uses himself or gets clients doing when they come to him exhausted, scattered and wondering why they can’t concentrate. Part one of two, from UK Registered Nutritionist Paul Evans. What you get out of it: A morning that doesn’t start on the back foot, and the one button that’s been sabotaging yours.Energy that holds past lunch, using light, water and movement rather than another coffee.The ability to concentrate for a full stretch, including the 25 minute method that works especially well for distracted and ADHD brains.Fewer interruptions, with Paul’s rules for protecting the hours you actually think clearly in.A reset you can do in thirty seconds when your head’s gone, no ice bath required.An afternoon without the 3pm fog, and the walk that shifts it when nothing else will.And a way of running the day that doesn’t need motivation, which is handy, because motivation isn’t coming.Part two lands Friday. @paulthenutritionist 👨‍🏫

    Low Sex Drive: What Your Libido Knows Before You Do

To bring this to your company, email paul@thenutritionistuk.com -- 💡 STOP GUESSING YOUR LUNCH: Stood in the supermarket aisle with five minutes to spare? Grab Paul’s free Meal Deal Survival Guide and build a high-protein lunch that actually fills you up, in any UK shop, in under 30 seconds 👉 mealdeal.carrd.co --S.E.X. Nobody books an appointment about this. They mention it last, on the way out the door, usually with an apology attached. Which is a shame, because a sex drive that’s gone is one of the most useful bits of information your body gives you. It usually isn’t about your relationship. It’s a reading, and something further upstream is moving the needle. In this episode I discuss why libido is worth paying attention to, what tends to be behind it, and what actually shifts it: Why it’s a gauge, not the problem. What your body switches off first when it decides resources are short, and why sex drive is near the top of that list.The sleep link. The one that catches people out, because they’ve written off the tiredness as normal.Stress, and the state it leaves you in. Why “I’m just busy at the moment” has a physiology attached to it.Under-eating. The thing Paul sees most often and the one nobody suspects. Long-term dieting has a cost, and this is where it shows up.Alcohol. Honest, not preachy. What a normal week’s drinking is actually doing.Training. Why too little and far too much land in the same place.What to do about it. Where to start, in what order, and how long before you’d expect to notice.And when it isn’t nutrition. The point at which this becomes a GP conversation rather than a food one, and why that’s worth doing.__ Instagram: @paulthenutritionist

    Mounjaro: The Unspoken Trap of Weight Loss Jabs

    💡 STOP GUESSING YOUR LUNCH: Stood in the supermarket aisle with five minutes to spare? Grab my free Meal Deal Survival Guide and build a high-protein lunch that actually fills you up, in any UK shop, in under 30 seconds 👉 mealdeal.carrd.co You’re losing weight. You’re also losing muscle. And if you stop without a plan, the fat comes back. The muscle doesn’t. Around 1.6 million UK adults used a weight loss drug last year. Most bought them outside the NHS. The majority have never had a single conversation with a professional about what to eat while they’re on one. This isn’t an anti-jab episode. These drugs work, and for some people they’ve been life changing. But the prescription didn’t come with instructions, and there’s a second half to this story that nobody is telling you. I break down what’s actually happening to your body: The surprise demographic. Who is really taking these in the UK. The leading group isn’t who you’d guess. The muscle drain. How much of what you lose isn’t fat, and why the drug itself makes that harder to prevent. The one-year reality check. What the research found when they took the drug away and watched 308 people for twelve months. Tearing apart my own evidence. Why I’m going to pull holes in the study that supports my own argument. The two findings nobody reports together. What they mean for the body you actually end up with. What to do, starting with your next meal. The protein rule for when you’re not hungry, and the two sessions a week that decide everything. The question to answer before your first injection. Almost nobody does this. If it’s already gone back on. Why that isn’t a willpower failure, and what rebuilds first. Instagram: @paulthenutritionist
