His discipline extended beyond effort; it was rooted in his nutrition and recovery routines. Miller adopted a caveman-inspired diet of lean meats, fruits, and vegetables, and kept himself hydrated with salt-infused water methods that kept his body shredded and healthy. This level of commitment echoes a principle he learned early on from his father, learning to say no to distractions to say yes to his dreams.  He also shares that the key is to lean into your faith and values during tough times.
