Myoscience micronized creatine (20% off for my audience): https://bit.ly/4eVYwCe Pre-order Keto Flex Revised and get free bonuses at: https://bit.ly/4wKG1sM Ben Azadi breaks down why more walking isn't the answer to stubborn belly fat, and why timing beats volume every time. The real driver of belly fat isn't calories, it's chronically high insulin, and a simple 10-minute walk taken right after a meal can shut down the blood sugar spike that feeds it. Two studies anchor this episode: one showing that three short 10-minute walks after meals beat one 30-minute walk for controlling blood sugar over 24 hours, and a 2025 study finding that a 10-minute walk right after eating significantly reduced the blood sugar spike, while a longer, later walk didn't. Ben also shares a surprising University of Houston finding on a tiny seated calf movement, the soleus push-up, that dramatically lowered blood sugar and insulin response in participants who couldn't get up and walk. Key takeaways: Timing beats volume. A 10-minute walk right after your biggest meal outperforms a longer walk taken later High insulin is the real driver of belly fat, not lack of movement or willpower Skeletal muscle handles roughly 80% of the glucose your body clears after a meal Muscle naturally declines starting in your 40s, which shrinks your blood sugar disposal capacity A seated calf-raise movement (the soleus push-up) meaningfully lowered blood sugar and insulin response in research participants Creatine supports muscle preservation and long-term metabolic health Find All The Ben Azadi Show Sponsorship Deals ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠https://www.ketokamp.com/sponsorship-deals
