Stress Reduced Fat Loss

A NEW Approach to Fat Burning


When it comes to burning fat, most people (including fat loss experts) only know the old school approach - more exercise and disciplined nutrition.


And while tweaking these 2 things is super important when it comes to fat loss…


It won’t address metabolic stressors that are causing fat storage in the first place.


The ‘stress reduced fat loss’ approach considers all the pillars of health - not just exercise and nutrition…


It works by specifically targeting the things that cause stress on the body…


Stress & Fat Gain


It is important to first understand that stress is not good or bad. Stress is just a stimulus that takes your body out of homeostasis, or in other words out of balance.


Our bodies were designed to be healthy, lean and energetic. It is extremely capable of adapting to stressors and fixing problems…


But when there is constant exposure to stressors (often years) it results in metabolic damage resulting in the accumulation of body fat and other health problems.


Simply put, the more body fat a person has, the more their body is under metabolic stress.


The ‘stress reduced fat loss’ approach works to reduce stress…


Not stress that’s hard to control like work, family or running behind schedule…


But rather stress that you expose your body to every day, in most cases for decades that you have full control over!


The Evolution of Fat Loss


The ‘stress reduced fat loss’ approach is the newest most advanced method to burn fat!


We live in a world that is very different from the one we lived in even 30 years ago…

As the world evolves to one that creates more and more metabolic stressors on the human body, the approach to burning fat must also evolve.


As a result, the old methods of fat burning by simply cutting back on wine or chips and increasing workouts just isn’t going to cut it anymore!


Until you consider all the pillars of health, by honing in on your specific metabolic stressors, fat loss will continue to be this elusive thing you keep chasing… 


The ‘stress reduced fat loss’ approach is the exact system we use at Nova Health Club in our LeanDads and Femme Fusion coaching programs.


And it has helped so many people…


People who have tried the old school ways for years but without success. 


Determining Metabolic Stressors


The old school approach does this…


It will have you step on a scale and then say you got 10-20lbs to lose…


And you get back on the same hamster wheel of increasing exercise and trying to cut back on foods you enjoy.


This approach does not work for people over 35 who have ‘racked up’ years of metabolic stress.


The new ‘stress reduced fat loss’ approach however uses a 5 step assessment to determine exactly what metabolic stressors need to be fixed…


Stressors like poor sleep, impaired digestion, allergens, toxins or vitamin deficiencies - all of which are ubiquitous in our modern life.


You see, when these things are improved, exercise and good nutrition work better.


But when there are metabolic stressors left unchecked, exercise and nutrition tactics don’t work like they should.


If you want to burn fat, boost energy, be in great shape and live your healthiest life it’s time to evolve your approach…


It's time to expose and zap those hidden metabolic stressors that have been holding you back from reaching your full potential.


And it all starts with looking at your health with a new perspective - not just by what the scale says… 


But through an assessment that identifies what is happening within your body that’s making you gain fat weight.
