Why You're Afraid to Eat More | Ep. 377

Episode Description

In this episode of The Macro Hour, Nikkiey Stott revisits the four key phases of a successful fitness journey—fat loss, reverse dieting, maintenance, and lean bulking—with a special focus on one of the most misunderstood phases: building muscle.

‍

Prompted by a listener question, Nikkiey takes a deeper dive into what a lean bulk actually is, why it's so important for long-term body composition, and how it differs from the idea of a "dirty bulk." She also addresses the fear many women have around seeing the scale increase during this phase and explains why those changes don't necessarily mean you're gaining body fat.

‍

If you've ever wondered when it's time to transition into a building phase—or felt nervous about eating more to build muscle—this episode will help you understand the bigger picture and give you the confidence to trust the process.

What Sustainable Fat Loss Actually Looks Like | Ep. 342
What Sustainable Fat Loss Actually Looks Like | Ep. 342

What does sustainable progress actually look like when it comes to fat loss, muscle building, and confidence?‍In this episode of The Macro Hour, Nikkiey breaks down why so many women struggle to maintain results after relying on extreme approaches like cutting carbs, overtraining, or constantly starting over after one imperfect day. True sustainability isn’t about perfect macros, never missing workouts, or having flawless weeks—it’s about staying consistent even when life isn’t ideal.‍Nikkiey explains how the body naturally adapts during fat loss, why progress can slow over time, and why building muscle acts as “metabolic armor” for long-term health, hormones, and metabolism. She also shares the simple habits that actually drive lasting change—structured nutrition, progressive strength training, walking, hydration, and sleep.‍If you’ve ever felt stuck in the cycle of extremes, this episode will help you redefine what real, sustainable progress looks like.‍This episode is brought to you by Cozy Earth.
