220lb at 5"8 from years of CICO and 'sugar is bad' beliefs. This episode is what I would do if I was 220lb woman and looking to cut down to a tight and right 110lbs.

Ive been going to Thailand every year since 2005 to 2019. That is 14 years in a row.  In 2020 and 2021 we have had very strict border controls here in Australia so we didnt go but hopefully in 2022 things get back to sanity.

Protein helps you lose weight right? The heaviest people on the planet eat the least protein right? Calories are all created equal right? CICO is all you need to focus on right? Lets deep dive a bit so you can see how you have been lied to and why you DONT have the results you really want and deserve.

Dietary fat is STORED as body fat. How much fat is too much fat then? 

SUSTAINTED elevated cortisol is BAD for weight loss. How to reduce and prevent it?

Lets talk about the fears that hold people back from living their best lean lives.

 Is there really a way humans can track how much nutrients they need, absorb and burn thru each day?

Many cyclists come into cycling to hide an eating disorder. Their mood swings and stimulant usage can make them seem like overt douchebags. Dont take it personally and understand that many suffer from serotonin lows from insufficient carbs and excess stimulant usage. Its not about you. :)

If you cut carbs you damage your thyroid. This is very easy to prove to yourself by getting your TSH levels tested at the doctors.

Jesse Coyle made a great reaction video about some of my what I eat in a day videos. Listen in for some extra insights. 

Weight loss is the biggest goal for most people lining up to do an Ironman. Performance is second. Ironically the best protocols for weight loss are also the best for health and performance!

If you are an adult looking for a partner etc in your life then the amount of serotonin and dopamine you produce are KEY in producing the vibes and energy it takes to obtain AND sustain the right people you want in your life. Finding good quality people is so hard as it is. Why make it harder by pushing them away via undercarbed behaviour?

Do you want your parents life? If you do then take their advice. Do you want my life? If you do then take my advice. Always be nice to your parents. Be civil. Be mature.  Hold your ground RESPECTFULLY.  Don't be a brat and don't cave into their pressure. Master the art of communication early in life if you want your best life ever. Learn from my mistakes. Learn from other peoples mistake...

Sarah Wilson jumped on the sugar phobia band wagon years ago. Since then her life quality from my opinion has taken a massive decline based on the stories she shares on her social media and interviews. My goal in this podcast is to help Sarah and those listening to make the connections of how important sugar is for mental and physical performance.

Many people wonder how I can run so fast at my age and on such little yearly running mileage. The answer is easy! I chase the small things that lose us time! In this podcast I give you running tips that Ive learned from some sub 14k 5 runners over the last 2 decades. Enjoy!

Steroids are as common as shoe laces on shoes in a shoe shop BUT if you dont know what to look for you just dont know. That is why it is SO easy for 99% of steroid users to lie to your face and spin you some BS about genetics, hard work, nutrition etc.

Imagine if I got on TikTok and did a crying rant because someone said I was to old to make the olympics or too slow to be selected for the national team..lol. I dont understand how some people are so undercarbed they can't see the world thru logical reality vs pure emotions.

The quality of our life is in direct proportion to the quality of our emotions. If most of your day you a pissed off and spiteful you will soon look like that in the face. If most of the day you are looking for the beauty and seeking gratitude then your face will reflect that. If you want to retain a youthful glow despite getting older then avoid holding grudges, make those public apologies and sa...

I deploy the marginal gains mindset to everything in my life the last 20 years. I always look for ways to improve or better understand something. Running is a GREAT activity where marginal gains are so easy to demonstrate and feel.

Anxiety and self judgement are the KEYS to a life worth living. Trying to kill them off is NOT the goal! Water is KEY for life. Too much though and you DROWN. As an adult it is our DUTY to get enough water but not too much. You dont push the ocean away...you use it when you need it. You ignore it when you dont need it. Imagine standing at the beach yelling at the ocean that you could drown in it i...

Women WAIT too long. Then they miss out HARD. :(
