Can You Try TOO Hard To Lose Weight (And Fail)?
Use Left/Right to seek, Home/End to jump to start or end. Hold shift to jump forward or backward.
Why does trying harder to lose weight after 40 never seem to work?
If you've gone all in on a diet, held it together for two weeks and then watched it fall apart, this video explains exactly why that keeps happening.

I'm Chris, a health and fitness coach for the over 40s, and after 16 years of coaching men and women through this I can tell you it's almost never a willpower problem. It's a load management problem.
In this video I introduce a concept called the Being Arsed Muscle, the decision making muscle behind every health choice you make, and explain why it fails under heavy loads just like any other muscle would.
I cover why going all in on a diet always ends the same way, why two weeks of restriction followed by collapse isn't a character flaw but a predictable outcome, and how to figure out what your muscle can actually handle right now so you can build gradually toward the full picture without the inevitable crash.
If you've tried and failed to lose weight more than once, this one is worth watching before you try again.
