About this listen

The Body Recomp Podcast is where smart lifters (like you) go to learn what actually works for losing fat and building muscle. No fads. No quick fixes. Just real, evidence-based strategies to get leaner, stronger, healthier... and more jacked, of course.


I’m your host, Kade Howell — a coach, father, husband, and wiener dog dad. After coaching hundreds of clients to transform through body recomposition, I’m here to share the training, nutrition, and lifestyle principles that cut through the noise and actually create lasting change.


Thank you for being here, and I hope you enjoy the show!

  • Get Lean Without Losing Muscle (How to Avoid Looking Skinny Fat) | Ep. 134
    Apr 22 2026

    Apply for The Recomp Project | Ever finished a cut only to feel smaller, weaker, and not much leaner?

    If so, stick around because today we're covering the five things that actually determine whether you come out of a cut looking lean and muscular... or just "skinny fat."

    You'll learn:

    • How to know if you're actually losing muscle when you cut
    • How much protein you actually need to avoid muscle loss
    • How to train to optimize performance and muscle retention/growth
    • When you should be more aggressive with fat loss vs. a slower approach
    • Cardio vs. diet vs. steps + when to adjust each for consistent fat loss while maintaining muscle

    If you want to come out of your next cut leaner and still look like you lift, this episode will help you do exactly that. Enjoy!

  • How to Go From 20% to 10% Body Fat in 12 Months or Less (Complete Step-by-Step Plan) | Ep. 133
    Mar 25 2026

    → Apply for The Recomp Project | Most people struggle to get (and stay) lean because they lack a phasic approach.

    Today we're walking through exactly what the process of going from 20% to 10% body fat looks like and how to apply it to your own situation. (Hint: It's not just eating in a calorie deficit for a year straight.)

    You'll learn:

    • Aggressive vs. moderate fat loss phases and when to use each
    • How to structure fat loss phases based on your dieting and training history
    • How to use recomp and maintenance phases to keep fat loss progressing long term
    • How to transition out of a cut and away from tracking macros without losing your progress
    • Why getting to 10% and sustaining it are two very different goals

    If you've been stuck between 15 and 20% and can't seem to break through, this episode is for you.

  • Why You've Plateaued (And How to Keep Progressing as an Intermediate Lifter) | Ep. 132
    Mar 14 2026

    → Apply for The Recomp Project | Feel like you've hit a plateau despite training hard and staying consistent? You're not alone.

    In this episode, we break down why intermediate lifters hit a plateau, why just training more probably won't fix it, and exactly what to change to keep progressing.

    You'll learn:

    • Why the approach that built your physique is now just maintaining it
    • How to actually use progressive overload (most people have it completely backwards)
    • Why adding more volume is usually the wrong first move
    • Why exercise selection and training intensity start to matter a lot more at this stage
    • How to structure your nutrition and long-term plan to keep making progress

    If you've been lifting for years and aren't seeing noticeable progress anymore, this one's for you.
