    https://chasing.energy/Better part of a decade of IF
    With any injury ive suffered, ive tried to put a positive spin / implementation on itOr at least just ensure I learn somethingHow I startedPro’s of  IF running…Almost Never needing to fuel prior to a runGreat way to lose some weight of stay leanRarely suffered from any type of blood sugar issue and generally avoided spikes Some would argue insulin resistance is disproportionate to distance runners who focused on simple carbs, I have not seen data on thisCredit to UCAN - sonoma 50 milerMore time in AMAutophagy
    ConsI would not recommend combining IF with Low Carb for endurance athletesWhen it made sense to fuel prior to an event I couldnt risk itMy stomach was just not ready Reflux issues - seemed to be greatly exacerbated by runningSome combo of the jostling motion?If I had to guess some part of this was due to the amount of fat in my dietCoffee didn’t help, Simple Sugar intake during events has haunted meMissing out on speed and muscle gains


    For managing my life now, It works well…. Mostly…Peter attia “It will take you between 1 - 2 years to adapt”I never sweat about # of hours anymoreMy # of hours awake impacts my appetiteIf i wake up / get up around 4:30, I’m generally hungry between 9 - 10 amIf I am going to lift hard after 10am I’ll generally have a light breakfast priorI rarely wait till I’m famished to begin eatingMostly I’m drawn to food when I’m a bit bored.  Having basic rules helpsI try to focus on getting a light brunch or slightly early lunch with @ least 20 grams of proteinI generally do 2, 2 course meals a dayI call this the 2x2 approachThe Study I mentioned
    Does time-restricted eating impair muscle protein synthesis?Original paperJanuary 31 2023

    Help people connect whats going on in their bodies with what's going on in their mindsThe pro’s and perils of dealing with New YorkersConnecting with the body as the tool to come into the presentBody ScansAvg person is unaware of messages from their bodyE.g. Noticing the breathAwareness prior to changeHolding breath when under pressureE.g.’s Include a client w/ social anxiety.How can we leverage curiosityWhy do I need to be curious if I just need to know if I should stay in my job.Being curious helps you to confront your ‘inner judge’Imposter syndrome : Correlation w/social mediaBusiness decisionsI elaborate on lesions from BoundariesIt helps to leverage a sense of accountability when one feels tension with boundariesPick your friends, Love your familyMaking peace with ‘needing people’, especially those who accept us as we areThe importance of ‘candid friends’ and making important life decisionsClean out the closet before you sort it out

    My five “lifestyle tweaks” are as follows:
    Develop a relationship with your body that includes movement that is fun, convenient, and affordable so you can do it for life. I see the all-or-nothing mentality cycle with movement and exercise. The body we have is the one we’ve got and movement is vital for feeling balanced, energized, and creative.
    Take time throughout the day to check in with your body and listen to what it is telling you. These qualities can serve you well, and then pay attention to the messages your body tells you about your needs and wants.


    Cultivate curiosity. You can apply this anywhere and you likely won’t be bored. And if you are bored, stay curious about the feeling!
    Surround yourself with people you love and who accept you unconditionally. This is vital as we are such goal-oriented people, especially as professionals and hardworking people in New York City. If you get into the striving-to-improve mentality, you can forget about the person on the way to their goals. Sometimes you need the people who love you to remind you how great you are.


    Don’t give up on yourself and don’t think you need to go it alone: keep working on your own personal development even through challenging and scary times. Find a therapist or mentor to help you along your way as we all need support.
    We have lost the art of curiosity and presence while being with other people. From this communication comes empathy, understanding, and connection — the opposite of loneliness and isolation. I would start a movement designed to build connection between people

    My approach to dealing with my partner:  Do you want me to ‘listen, coach or solve’?


    How I deal with “Flashes of Shame”.  What's in and out of your ‘locus of control’
    The locus of control is a psychological concept that refers to the extent to which individuals believe that they have control over the events that affect their lives. An internal locus of control refers to the belief that one's own actions and personal characteristics are responsible for the outcomes they experience, while an external locus of control refers to the belief that external factors such as luck or fate are primarily responsible for the outcomes they experience. Research has shown that individuals with an internal locus of control tend to be more successful and satisfied with their lives than those with an external locus of control.

Insight to be chased

These episodes provide practical ways that can be easily implemented to help the listener just be better. Whether it’s sleep, diet, exercise, migraine relief, all sorts of good info here. I like how Daniel, the host, actually has tried some of the things his guests recommend. Daniel also does his homework, discussing info from his guests’ blogs, books etc.
