RTF# 122 Back to Basics: Understanding Calories and Energy Expenditure
Hey, Rockstars! In today’s episode, we’re taking it back to the basics and breaking down the science behind calories, energy, and energy expenditure. It’s easy to get caught up in complicated diets or fitness trends, so today we’re simplifying things by focusing on the core principles of energy balance and what truly impacts your calorie expenditure.
Some topics include:
-
What are calories and why are they the building blocks of energy for our bodies?
-
Understanding the science behind calories is critical for sustainable fat loss, muscle gain, or maintenance.
-
What is total daily energy expenditure (TDEE) and how does it determine the number of calories your body burns each day?
-
Key factors that affect your TDEE
This episode is a great reminder that sometimes the best way to progress is to go back to the basics. Whether you’re trying to lose fat, build muscle, or maintain your current weight, having a solid understanding of calories and energy expenditure is key to long-term success.
