How Weight Loss Really Works

Still confused by weight loss? This episode clears it up—once and for all.

In this no-fluff breakdown, Lachy and Raph cut through the noise and explain how weight loss actually works. You’ll learn why the calories in vs. calories out equation is still king, how most people overestimate exercise and underestimate daily movement, and why fat loss is simple—but not easy.

Here’s what you’ll walk away with:

  • A clear understanding of the 4 pillars of energy burn: BMR, NEAT, Thermic Effect of Food, and exercise

  • The #1 reason you’re not losing fat (hint: it’s not your thyroid)

  • How steps outperform workouts for consistent fat loss

  • The power of high-volume, low-calorie foods to keep you full and lean

  • Why weight training should be the foundation, not your only focus

  • How to apply a sustainable 10–15% calorie deficit without burning out

Whether you’re starting out or plateauing, this episode will reset how you approach fat loss—and help you take control with confidence.
