#1193 Everything You Know About Weightlifting Is Wrong – The Shocking Science of Faster Muscle & Fat Loss with Dr. John Jaquish

What if everything you thought about muscle building, fat loss, and strength training was backwards? In this episode of the Metabolic Freedom Podcast, host Ben Azadi sits down with Dr. John Jaquish, biomedical engineer, inventor, and author of Weight Lifting Is a Waste of Time, for a deep-dive conversation that challenges traditional fitness dogma. Dr. Jaquish explains why conventional weightlifting, bulking, and endless cardio are inefficient, unnecessary, and often counter-productive for real body recomposition. He shares the science behind variable resistance training, how high protein intake drives metabolism, why low carbohydrate thresholds matter, and how your body can build muscle and burn fat simultaneously without joint destruction or outdated exercise myths. Whether you lift weights regularly or you’ve ever felt stuck in your progress, this episode will flip your assumptions about muscle, fat loss, and strength gains — and give you a new framework to achieve both lean muscle and metabolic freedom. Key Topics Covered • Why body recomposition is possible at all fitness levels • How variable resistance training (like X3) outperforms traditional lifting • Why high protein consumption accelerates fat loss • The science behind low carbohydrate thresholds for muscle glycogen • Myths about how much protein the body can absorb • Why calories are a flawed measure for muscle growth • Essential amino acids, creatine, peptides — what works and when • How short, high-intensity training minimizes joint wear • Why traditional cardio rarely drives body recomposition Books Mentioned 📘 Weight Lifting Is a Waste of Timeby Dr. John Jaquishhttps://www.amazon.com/Weight-Lifting-Waste-Time-Cardio/dp/154450893X Products and Programs Mentioned 👉 X3 BarVariable resistance training system designed for big muscle gains and fat loss:https://benazadi.com/x3 💸 Coupon code: SAVE50 — $50 off the X3 Bar system Watch the Full Interview on YouTube 📺 https://www.youtube.com/@BenAzadi Follow Ben Azadi 🌐 Website: https://www.benazadi.com📸 Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/thebenazadi📘 Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/benazadi.coach💼 LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/benazadi🎵 TikTok: https://www.tiktok.com/@benazadi 🔎 Find All Metabolic Freedom Sponsorship Deals ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠https://www.ketokamp.com/sponsorship-deals Learn more about your ad choices.
