Think fasting fixes everything? That carbs are the enemy? Or that intuitive eating is where everyone should start?

You’re not alone. You're being misled by an industry built on half-truths.

Today, Isaiah Mitchell, the owner of Relentless Pursuit Coaching and host of the "Fat Loss Forever" podcast, dismantles 10 of the most persistent fat loss myths keeping you stuck. From the fasting hype and cardio obsession to hormone blame and the lie that clean eating must be perfect, he brings the science and the nuance to help you stop spinning your wheels.

Catch the companion episode of this two-part special collaboration on Isaiah’s podcast where Philip breaks down 10 other myths, including metabolism, fasted cardio, and fat loss over 40.

Main Takeaways:

• Intermittent fasting isn't magic, it only works if it helps you eat fewer calories
• Intuitive eating is a skill you earn, not how you start
• Cardio alone won't get you lean, strength training builds the body you want
• Carbs, sugar, and seed oils aren't the enemy, context and calories are king
• Your dream body won't fix your life, mindset and habits matter most
