Hit a Fitness Plateau? Why Your Metabolism Might Be the Missing Piece

If you’re working out hard but not seeing results, a fitness plateau might be depressing. Many achieve this level after weeks or months of dieting and exercising. Slowness, doubt, and demotivation ensue. Normal plateaus don’t mean failure. This phase is not due to a lack of discipline or determination, but rather to changes in metabolism. You must understand how your body responds to prolonged effort when it comes to overcoming weight loss challenges. The body adapts to survive. When cutting calories or repeating workouts, the body burns fewer calories and conserves energy. This adaptive response can halt progress even with unmodified steps.

How to Tell You’ve Hit a Fitness Plateau

A plateau occurs when the body becomes accustomed to something. Most people need less energy after losing weight. Cutting calories allows muscles to do the same work, and hormones may shift to prevent further loss. Such behavior is natural. The body does this to maintain balance. There are several ways that plateaus might show up. The scale can stop moving, measurements can stop, and power growth can stop. These symptoms mean that the body needs a fresh plan or trigger to continue forward.

Donald Miller Shares Message-Clarity Strategies for Business Growth on Ground Up Podcast

Clear communication may be one of the most overlooked drivers of business success, according to Donald Miller, #1 New York Times bestselling author and Founder and CEO of StoryBrand. Miller joined hosts Terry Barga and Vanessa Hampton on a recent episode of the Ground Up Podcast to discuss how simplifying a company’s message can fuel sustainable growth, stronger customer connections, and long-term impact.

Miller, a widely respected business thought leader and international speaker, is best known for developing the StoryBrand framework—a communication methodology designed to help businesses clarify their message so customers immediately understand what they offer and why it matters. During the conversation, he explained why many organizations struggle to stand out in crowded markets.

The episode explored how clarity in messaging influences every level of a business, from marketing and leadership to internal culture and scalability. Miller emphasized that when companies position their customers as the hero of the story—and clearly define the problem they solve—brands can cut through noise and build trust more effectively.

Namaste Anderson on Breast Cancer Recovery, Community, and Wellness on NFM Podcast

For many breast cancer survivors, the end of treatment does not mark the end of the journey. Instead, it opens the door to a new set of physical, emotional, and mental challenges—ones that often lack adequate support. That reality is at the heart of a recent episode of the NFM Podcast, where hosts Abby Miranda and Collin Schoen sat down with Namaste Anderson, Executive Director and Co-Founder of Breast Cancer Recovery in Action.

Anderson, a breast cancer survivor herself, shared how her personal experience navigating life after treatment inspired the creation of Breast Cancer Recovery in Action, a Tennessee-based nonprofit focused on empowering survivors beyond diagnosis and chemotherapy. The organization provides education, advocacy, and community-driven wellness resources designed to support long-term recovery.
