Lesson Overview

9.8 – Adaptive Thermogenesis Explained: Adaptive thermogenesis is a natural response where your body slows calorie burn during periods of low energy intake or stress. This protects you from going too long without fuel, but it can make weight loss or muscle gain feel difficult. Eating too little or pushing too hard for too long may trigger this slowdown. Supporting metabolism with enough calories and regular meals helps prevent this protective response. Strength training keeps muscle mass high, which supports energy burn even at rest. Noticing changes in hunger, energy, and progress helps you adjust before frustration builds. Understanding this process reminds you that your body is always working to protect you. With balanced habits, thermogenesis stays strong and progress continues.
