#28 - The Truth About Belly Fat (It’s Not What You Think

Real talk: I was so excited to release this episode because the research on belly fat is genuinely fascinating — and the protocol I share at the end? You’ll want to try it.

But then it hit me — I hadn’t yet spoken about why we’re all so focused on belly fat in the first place. Where did that frustration come from? Was it truly ours to begin with, or did the media quietly hand it to us?

So if you’ve ever felt insecure about your stomach, that’s okay. I’m not here to tell you how to feel — just to help you understand what’s really going on beneath the surface, at least from a biological standpoint.

What You’ll Learn:

  • The science behind spot reduction — myth or possibility?

  • The two types of belly fat (and why one matters more than the other)

  • Why the media gets belly fat so wrong

  • What actually helps reduce visceral fat

  • A research-backed training protocol to support healthy fat loss

Here's the study if you want to check it out:


Brobakken, M. F., Krogsæter, I., Helgerud, J., Wang, E., & Hoff, J. (2023). Abdominal aerobic endurance exercise reveals spot reduction exists: A randomized controlled trial. Physiological Reports, 11(23), e15853. https://doi.org/10.14814/phy2.15853
