Okay, so I want to circle back. I'll circle back to GLP-1s in just a second. But you brought something up that I'd like to touch on because there's a bit of a debate in the fitness space around reverse dieting or strength training for fat loss. We can see a metabolic boost type of deal. Now, we trained people for decades. I've reverse dieted people. I've used strength training.

For me, it's always been the most effective way to get fat loss for the average person for multiple reasons. But what are your thoughts on reverse dieting? What are your thoughts on being able to impact your metabolism in a positive way through building muscle or the strength training process? What's your opinion on all that? I mean, it has –

What about the metabolic boost and what the research – I'm familiar with what the research says. And when they compare a pound of muscle to a pound of fat and calories per day, it's very minimal in the research. But in my experience – And tons and tons of times I've had a client. She came in. She reports eating 1,400 calories. I reverse diet her. I build only probably five, six pounds of muscle.

But for that size of a girl, that's a decent amount of muscle. And now she's eating 2,600 calories and not putting on any body fat and staying lean or getting leaner. And it doesn't math. It doesn't add up to what the studies say. So do you think there's something more going on? What's the answer to that?

There's got to be something to be said, too, though, about, okay, now that they're exercising, they built muscle. Okay, what it takes to maintain that muscle is more activity, more movement, more volume. You know this. When you're feeling good, you're healthier, you're just more active throughout the day. So there's probably a kind of three different things happening there.
