If you’ve ever been stuck eating 1,000 calories a day and wondering why the scales aren’t moving — this episode is for you.

In today’s chat, I break down exactly why low-calorie diets fail, especially for women over 40.

We’ll dive into what really happens to your metabolism when you under-eat, why starvation tactics destroy your energy, hormones, and confidence, and what to do instead.

I’ll also share:

✅ Why your coach giving you a 1,000-calorie plan is a red flag

✅ How keto helps you break fat-loss plateaus and keep it off

✅ What a realistic day of eating looks like for long-term results

✅ Why the “eat less, move more” advice is outdated nonsense

No fads. No starvation. Just straight-talking advice that actually works.

Whether you’re working with me already, or just looking for something that finally sticks — this one will change how you see fat loss forever.

In this episode, Adam Barski PT dives deep into why every woman should be strength training — not just to look better, but to feel better, move better, and protect her body as she ages.

With a mix of UK humour, real-life client stories, and simple science, Adam explains how lifting weights can:

💪 Transform body composition

🧠 Boost confidence and energy

🦴 Strengthen bones and joints

🔥 Speed up fat loss (without endless cardio)

❤️ Keep you independent and thriving well into later life

He also talks about the community behind his Strength Club — small-group sessions capped at six people, 90% women, with a friendly, supportive vibe — and how you can get started either there or through 1-1 personal training with him.

Grab a brew, settle in, and get ready to fall in love with lifting.

Because strong women aren’t born — they’re built.

Are weight loss jabs like Ozempic really the answer — or just another quick fix that leaves you stuck? In this episode, Adam Barski PT breaks down exactly how GLP-1 injections work, why they’re so tempting, and the reality of the side effects, costs, and rebound weight gain.

Then we flip the script and talk about the real alternative: the keto diet. You’ll hear how women over 40 (including those navigating menopause) are losing weight, controlling appetite, and finally finding food freedom — without needles, calorie counting, or hunger.

If you’ve ever been told that fat loss is all about “eating less and moving more,” this episode is going to flip that idea on its head.

In my very first podcast episode, I break down why your diet plays a far bigger role in fat loss than exercise — and why you could be training harder than ever but still not seeing results if your nutrition isn’t right.

I’ll share:

• The biggest mistakes people make when trying to lose weight.
• Why quick-fix diets and punishing workouts rarely work.
• How hormones like insulin affect fat storage and hunger.
• The key principles of a diet that actually burns fat.
• Real client stories that show how simple shifts in food choices led to incredible results.
• Practical tips for handling cravings, eating out, and building a plan you can stick to.

By the end of this episode, you’ll understand why fat loss starts in the kitchen, and how to fuel your body so results come faster, easier, and with less stress.
