Not all calories are equal!

This topic annoys me because... ??
It's usually debated between insecure personal trainers who deliver short-lasting client results via starvation and a "just work harder mentality" (which often leads to a "mental health advocate" approach later in their career when their endocrine system doesn't let them maintain abs anymore) vs grifters who're trying to sell you on the "secret hormonal process to fat loss" (often accompanied by BS supplement product).
Needless to say, both of which don't offer a valuable perspective.
So why listen to me? ??
I've been sitting here thinking of the best way to convey my expertise without saying "Just look at my client results".
This is a fair point for me to make because all of my clients achieve their goals with max 3 days of training per week and non-restrictive nutrition.
But I think the best way is to link my IG here, let you take a look through my free content and decide for yourself! ??
Let's talk about the evidence:
Fact: To lose fat you must be in a deficit
Fact: To gain WEIGHT you must be in a surplus
Fact: You can GAIN muscle in a deficit, and if you don't resistance train, you'll LOSE muscle in the deficit.

With this information taken into account, let's run an experiment:
Imagine you and a friend have exactly equal bodies and calorie maintenance of 2500 calories. This means you remain the same weight if you eat this daily.
Your friend eats 2000 calories of absolute garbage food.
You eat an 80% nutrient-dense deficit (with room for chocolate ofc) filled with whole foods and timed correctly as if I made it for you.
You will lose more fat than your friend.
Your friend WILL lose fat, they're in a deficit after all. But they'll lose less fat and they will quit by week 4.
Here are the reasons why you will lose more fat and consequently reach your goals with a nutrient-dense system:
(Physiological standpoint only)
There are more reasons to be shared. And more actionable steps to be taken with this info!
