You CAN bias your results toward a smaller waist… but only if you understand the mistakes most people make and how to fix them. Because it’s not going to happen by doing random ab workouts, slashing calories, or jumping on whatever TikTok fad is trending this week. In this episode, Christina breaks down the biggest mistakes keeping you from the flat stomach you want, and exactly what to do instead. Topics Discussed: Why endless ab work won’t flatten your stomach — and what will The difference between training for fat loss vs muscle growth How under-eating (and then overeating) slows your metabolism and keeps your waistline puffy The role of stress, sleep, digestion, and biofeedback in belly fat loss Why chasing the scale can actually make your stomach look softer The start/stop cycle and how inconsistency keeps you bloated and stuck How to bias your results toward a tighter waist without falling for gimmicks Key Links: 📱 Christina's Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/knifina/    💪 Cut & Conquer Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/cutandconquerfitness/    📝 Coaching Application: https://cutandconquer.typeform.com/CQA-application   🌍 Free FB Community: https://www.facebook.com/groups/weightsandwellness/ 🌶️ Shop our Meal Prep Seasoning: https://healthydevil.ca/collections/all Hosted on Acast.
