Summary
On this episode of the Friday Five podcast, Liz is joined by Zana Morris, a nutritionist and PT, to discuss something that's creating quite the buzz in the world of wellness—metabolic flexibility. No, it's nothing to do with touching your toes!
According to Zana, if we can increase the flexibility of our metabolism, we can accelerate fat loss (if this is our goal), sustain our energy levels throughout the day, and even improve the quality of our sleep.

| 0:00.0 | Hello and a very warm welcome to my Friday 5 and as I'm sure you have seen from the episode |
| 0:19.7 | title today I'm joined once again by popular demand, by the professional fitness coach |
| 0:25.9 | nutritionist and good friend Zana Morris. Now I thought that today we would continue our |
| 0:32.4 | ongoing conversations around strength building, muscle retention, weight loss and shape gain |
| 0:39.9 | and take a bit of a deep dive into the best ways to achieve all of these things both quickly |
| 0:46.4 | and easily. Minimum fuss, maximum results, that's what I like about Zana, well who doesn't |
| 0:54.4 | and as always my podcasts are in conversation with my guests for a bit of a two-way chat rather than |
| 1:01.3 | a formal interview as we share wellness ideas and experiences here. Well if I take a peek at my |
| 1:08.5 | podcast analytics I can see that you've all been loving the fat loss and muscle building wisdom |

| 2:02.5 | is something I actually need to keep a closer eye on now if we can increase the flexibility of |
| 2:08.6 | our metabolism she says we can accelerate fat loss if this indeed is our goal sustain our energy |
| 2:16.1 | levels throughout the day and even improve the quality of our sleep all very good things as far as |
| 2:22.4 | I'm concerned now I should say that we recorded this chat remotely so the sound quality Zana's end |
| 2:29.5 | is not entirely up to scratch but what she has to say certainly is so I do hope that you'll bear |
| 2:35.7 | with us here well warm welcome back Zana it's great to have you back on my podcast you are always |
