Eat less or move more? (when and how you should do each)
The order matters. Cut intake first, because saying no is simple and burning the same calories costs an hour. Joey puts a floor around 1,500 to 1,600 calories for most men, higher if you weigh more.
His father, a physical therapist, did an 800 calorie keto clinic, lost 60 to 70 pounds, was miserable throughout, and gained it all back. Below the floor, people burn out and fall off.
Once you reach that floor, the focus shifts to output: more steps, another active hobby on top of lifting. If the scale stalls, it is almost always a tracking error.
What You'll Learn
- Cut calories first, add movement once you hit your floor.
- Most men should not drop below 1,500 to 1,600 calories.
- A stalled scale usually means miscounted intake, not broken hormones.
