What Is A 'Metabolic Phenotype' & How It Can Impact Your Fat Loss | Ep 138

Fit Take with Joey Gast

A 'metabolic phenotype' is a term used to describe where your total energy expenditure (aka how many calories you burn) lies in comparison to how many calories we would predict you'd burn based on a set of equations given your height, weight, age, activity level, etc.
Some people can be described as having a "thrifty" metabolic phenotype, where others may have more of a "spendthrift" phenotype.
Depending on where you fall in regards to these categories, it can have an impact on how hard or easy fat loss may feel for you.
In this episode I dive into the differences between both phenotypes and the implications this might have on fat loss, as well as strategies to implement to counteract the negative side effects of your category.
