In today’s episode of The Not Knowing Podcast, we have Aarja Bedi, popularly known as @fitwithaabi, in conversation with Siddhant Malhotra. Aarja is a Gen-Z health coach and fitness creator who has helped over 400+ people transform their bodies with her 8-week program focused on 45-minute workouts and balanced nutrition.
In this episode, we dive deep into fat loss vs weight loss, how to set realistic fitness goals, and why so many people fail to achieve lasting results. Aarja shares her personal journey of losing 10 kg and the mistakes she made along the way — from following “healthy” habits that actually stalled her progress, to overcoming the obsession with weighing scales.
We also discuss the most common myths in the fitness industry, like whether protein bars really help, why overnight oats might not be the best choice for fat loss, and how under-eating can damage your metabolism. Aarja breaks down practical tips for busy professionals, home workout hacks, and nutrition strategies that are actually sustainable.
Towards the end, we explore the link between mental health and fitness, how to stop treating workouts like punishment, and the mindset shifts Aarja teaches her clients to make their transformations last a lifetime.
If you’ve ever struggled with weight loss, fitness consistency, or just want to understand the science + psychology of getting in shape, this episode is packed with actionable takeaways you can start using today.
