Have you ever wondered how to enjoy your favorite carbohydrates without completely ruining your fat-loss progress or crashing your energy levels halfway through the day? This episode compiles previous interviews regarding how to fuel the body, burn fat, and use carbohydrates. Rachel Gregory shares her transition from keto to reintroducing carbohydrates to fuel training and performance. Robert Sikes explains how adherence to keto develops metabolic machinery. I share my framework on carb back-loading to manage glycogen stores. Consuming carbohydrates post-workout and at dinner keeps blood sugar from spiking, maintains fat adaptation, and shifts the body into a rest state. Keeping carbohydrates under 100 grams lets you utilize fat for energy during the day and use carbohydrates for recovery. Key takeaways Metabolic flexibility allows your body to burn fat for energy during low-impact activities and seamlessly switch to burning carbohydrates during workouts. Becoming fat-adapted typically requires a minimum of three to four weeks in a low-carbohydrate state. Reintroducing carbohydrates should be done slowly, prioritizing sources like potatoes, rice, and fruits over processed foods. Carb back-loading involves eating your carbohydrates post-workout and at dinner to replenish muscle glycogen without storing it as fat. Consuming carbohydrates in the evening helps transition the nervous system into a parasympathetic, rest-and-digest state for sleep. Strict adherence to a single dietary protocol like keto can maximize the efficiency of your body's metabolic machinery. A low-carbohydrate lifestyle can be defined as consuming under 100 grams of carbohydrates per day.

Dr. Corey Schuler, PhD(c), FNP, DC, CNS, and director of medical affairs at Allergy Research Group, details his paper “Energy Allocation Resilience and Endocrine Integration” in the International Journal of Molecular Sciences. He introduces the Energy Allocation System (EAS), which emphasizes how the body allocates energy—not just produces it—and links many symptoms to impaired bioenergetics and resilience. They discuss mitochondria as energy generators and cellular signaling hubs, the integrated stress response and endocrine coordination (HPA axis, thyroid, gonads), and mitohormesis/eustress (exercise, fasting, heat/cold, circadian “zeitgebers”). Schuler explains nuanced testing for fatigue (diurnal cortisol, CGM patterns, thyroid markers including T3/reverse T3) and a case of a perimenopausal woman where oral contraceptives and cortisol dysregulation affected glucose patterns. They cover mitochondrial support (removing obstacles like pollutants/antibiotics, triglycerides, carnitine, dietary fats, micronutrients) and pacing/sequencing lifestyle interventions.

NESEDA pre mňa nikdy nebola obyčajná stolička, ale odpoveď na civilizačný problém chronického sedenia, gravipauzy a fyzickej degenerácie moderného človeka. Jej príbeh sa začal víziou vytvoriť pracovné prostredie, ktoré človeka nebude pasívne usádzať, ale bude ho prirodzene pozývať k pohybu počas práce. Spolu s Michalom Trubanom sme z prvých surových skíc, odborného presvedčenia a mnohých prototypov postupne vytvorili fyzický produkt, ktorý otvoril novú kategóriu aktívneho „ne-sedenia“. V tomto video článku mapujem dôležité míľniky projektu: vznik myšlienky, vývoj, predpredaj, výrobu, zmeny vo vedení, vlastnícke premeny aj hľadanie udržateľného obchodného modelu. Nie je to však iba história produktu, ale aj moje osobné svedectvo o tom, čo veľký projekt urobí s človekom, ktorý sa rozhodne udržať víziu pri živote. Otvorene pomenúvam vlastné chyby, slabé stránky aj morálne ponaučenia, ktoré vyplynuli z rokov práce, tlaku, naivity, dôvery, konfliktov a neľahkých rozhodnutí. NESEDA sa tak pre mňa stala nielen produktom, ale aj školou odvahy, charakteru, podnikateľskej zrelosti a pokory. Tento článok spolu s videom je určený všetkým, ktorí cítia, že chcú vytvoriť niečo väčšie než seba, no zatiaľ nenašli odvahu začať.

Existujú hry, ktoré sa nedajú vyhrať. Nie preto, že by si bol slabý, ale preto, že nie sú postavené pre tvoje telo. V tejto epizóde som bol hosťom v TROSHCASTE a otvorili sme tému, ktorá sa na prvý pohľad tvári ako debata o športe, no v skutočnosti siaha oveľa hlbšie. Hovoríme o tom, prečo nie každý človek patrí do každého športu rovnako a prečo je chybou zamieňať nevhodný výber disciplíny za nedostatok talentu, disciplíny alebo charakteru. Jedna z najsilnejších myšlienok tejto epizódy je, že pochopiť vlastné telo nie je obmedzenie, ale oslobodenie. Keď prestaneš bojovať proti svojej biomechanike a začneš jej rozumieť, môžeš robiť lepšie rozhodnutia v tréningu, v športe aj v živote. Dotýkame sa aj toho, ako stereotypy deformovali naše vnímanie talentu, výkonu a pohybového potenciálu. Rozhovor prepája šport, vedu, sebapoznanie aj identitu, pretože telo nie je len nástroj výkonu, ale aj nositeľ určitých predispozícií. Ak ťa zaujíma, prečo niektorí ľudia v určitých pohyboch prirodzene vynikajú a iní sa v nich trápia aj napriek veľkej snahe, táto epizóda ti poskladá dôležité súvislosti. Je to diel pre športovcov, trénerov, rodičov aj premýšľajúcich ľudí, ktorí chcú lepšie rozumieť tomu, kde končí motivácia a kde začína biológia. A možno práve aj mnohé ženy vďaka tomuto podcastu lepšie pochopia, že prijatie vlastného tela nezačína bojom proti nemu, ale porozumením jeho dizajnu — pretože nie všetko, čo je konštrukčne dané, sa dá zmeniť, no dá sa to prijať a obrátiť vo svoj prospech.

In this session, Regan Archibald introduces the idea of “metabolic flexibility” as the body's ability to use different fuel sources efficiently and connects that concept to daily habits, energy, and lifestyle choices. He frames the discussion around practical routines such as regular movement, strength training, walking after meals, prioritizing sleep, eating balanced meals with enough protein and fiber, and paying attention to how food choices affect overall wellbeing. He also discusses the role of muscle, activity, and consistency in supporting long-term health habits, while encouraging listeners to observe their own patterns through tools like blood work or a continuous glucose monitor and to focus on sustainable behaviors rather than relying on willpower alone.RESOURCES:Book Comprehensive Labs: https://agelessfuture.com/longevity-labs/FREE copy of The Peptide Blueprint: https://agelessfuture.com/blueprintSign up for future Health Accelerator Challenges calls LIVE! https://us02web.zoom.us/webinar/register/WN_YZsiUMOzSyqcE8IinC5YEQ#/registrationBooks: https://www.amazon.com/Books-Regan-Archibald/s?rh=n%3A283155%2Cp_27%3ARegan%2BArchibaldArticles: https://medium.com/search?q=Regan+ArchibaldLIKE/FOLLOW/SUBSCRIBE:YouTube -https://www.youtube.com/@ReganArchibald / https://www.youtube.com/@Ageless.FutureLinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/regan-archibald-ab70b813Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/ageless.future/Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/AgelessFutureHealth/DISCLAIMER: This video is for educational purposes only and does not provide medical advice, diagnosis, or treatment.  Many of the molecules discussed in this video are research compounds and are not approved by the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) for any specific medical use, indication, or condition.

In this episode of the Flex Diet Podcast, I sit down with Denmark-based coach and hybrid athlete Andreas Stobberup to talk about bridging serious strength training with high-level endurance performance. Andreas shares his journey from peaking around 250 lbs with a 405 bench and 600+ squat to dropping to 205 and completing a full Ironman in 9:52—while continuing to coach athletes across disciplines. We discuss the reality gap between amateur and elite performance, how influencer culture often strips context from training advice, and why fundamentals still win: training, nutrition, sleep, and measurable outputs. We break down common misunderstandings around Zone 2 training, why pros don't train the way social media says they do, and how strength athletes can intelligently add conditioning without compromising lifting. We also cover VO₂ max development, microdosing cardio, output-based tracking (times, power, lactate), and how to think about HRV and wearable data in context. If you're interested in hybrid training, improving conditioning without sacrificing muscle, or understanding how to measure what actually matters, this one is packed with practical insight.

We put our hands down our pants (for warmth) before this amazing episode!

We discuss what we learned before laying out an overview of our ultra training philosophy.The sport is changing so fast that we're almost certainly wrong (and biased) in some places. But it's so fun to learn at the edges, and to see how that might apply to any athlete trying to see what's possible! We finish it off by looking for lessons that we can learn for shorter distance training theory. Hint: it's mostly carbs.And this one was full of great topics!

Why do so many people struggle with fatigue, stubborn weight gain, hormone issues, and burnout — even when they're eating “clean” and training hard? In this episode, we break down the real reason your body isn't healing and why most health advice fails to address the root cause.Joined by Lindsay Perry, this conversation dives deep into a systems-based approach to health, exploring how the gut, liver, hormones, nervous system, sleep, and stress all work together to control energy, metabolism, and long-term results.Rather than focusing on symptoms, trends, or extreme diets, this episode explains what's happening under the hood — from ATP production and mitochondrial function to cortisol regulation, nervous system balance, and metabolic flexibility. You'll learn why pushing harder often backfires and how chronic stress quietly sabotages recovery, fat loss, and hormone health.We cover:Why gut and liver health are foundational for hormones and energyHow stress and nervous system dysregulation block healing and fat lossThe role of sleep and circadian rhythm in metabolism and recoveryWhy detoxification and elimination are biological processes — not fadsHow to fuel properly based on stress, activity, and current health stateLindsay Perry brings real-world coaching insight throughout the episode, helping connect science with practical application for people who feel stuck despite doing “everything right.”If you're tired of surface-level health advice and want a clear, root-cause explanation of how the body actually heals, this episode will change how you think about health, fitness, and recovery.00:00 – Introduction & Why Most People Aren't Healing00:41 – The “March Method” & Root-Cause Health Explained01:02 – ATP, Mitochondria & Cellular Energy Basics01:19 – Hormones, Cycles & Why Balance Matters02:44 – Detox, Elimination & Why the Body Gets Stuck04:14 – Cold Exposure, Stress Adaptation & Recovery05:50 – Stress Load, Burnout & Early Cortisol Discussion07:55 – Fueling the Body: Fat vs Carbs Explained10:57 – Sleep, Circadian Rhythm & Metabolic Health12:12 – Gut Health: The Foundation of Healing15:48 – Liver Function, Detox Pathways & Hormones18:35 – Inflammation, Energy Deficits & Fatigue21:30 – Nervous System Regulation & Chronic Stress24:35 – Cortisol, Survival Mode & Weight Loss Resistance28:10 – Why Pushing Harder Makes Things Worse32:24 – Metabolic Flexibility & Long-Term Healing34:27 – Nervous System Reset & Final Takeaways35:57 – Closing ThoughtsDisclaimer:The information discussed in this episode is for educational and informational purposes only and is not intended as medical advice.

If fat loss has ever felt harder than it should, this episode will completely change how you think about dieting.After years of coaching women through fat loss, I've learned that success isn't about magic foods or extreme plans. It's about creating the right physiological and psychological environment with food.In this episode, I break down a simple, repeatable food framework that makes fat loss easier to stick to and faster to achieve.You'll learn why hunger management is the real key to consistency and how the right food choices naturally keep calories lower without feeling restrictive.I explain how micronutrient-dense foods support your thyroid, hormones, training performance, and energy so your body actually responds to a calorie deficit.We'll walk through the best carbohydrate sources for fat loss, including why potatoes, berries, oats, and non-starchy vegetables work so well. I'll cover the most effective lean protein options to stay full, preserve muscle, and keep your metabolism strong.You'll also learn how to use fats strategically without blowing your calorie target.I share a full sample day of eating so you can see exactly how this framework looks in real life.We'll talk through easy swaps and shortcuts for busy schedules so this plan is realistic, not perfect.This approach makes your diet simpler, more measurable, and far less stressful.It keeps your body healthy, responsive, and primed for fat loss instead of fighting it.If you want a meal plan that actually works with your body and your life, this episode is for you. Time Stamps: (2:06) How Should We Eat For Fat Loss? (4:36) Keeping Hunger Manageable (9:22) Remember SHREDS For Biofeedback (12:13) Macro Sources (14:42) Metabolic Flexibility (17:52) Berries and Antioxidants (23:42) Protein Sources (29:10) Sample Meal Plan (32:32) Making Fat Loss Easier---------------------Find Out More Information on Vital Spark Coaching---------------------Follow @vanessagfitness on Instagram for daily fitness tips & motivation. ---------------------Download Our FREE Metabolism-Boosting Workout Program---------------------Join the Women's Metabolism Secrets Facebook Community for 25+ videos teaching you how to start losing fat without hating your life!---------------------Click here to send me a message on Facebook and we'll see how I can help or what best free resources I can share!---------------------Interested in 1-on-1 Coaching with my team of Metabolism & Hormone Experts?

In this episode of the Flex Diet Podcast, I'm joined by my good friend Dr. Eric Trexler, exercise scientist, educator, and Director of Education at Stronger by Science, for a wide-ranging, no-BS conversation on what physiology actually looks like in the real world.We dig into beetroot juice, nitric oxide, and “pump” supplements, why the blood-flow story is usually oversold, and why neuromuscular function and calcium handling may matter far more than chasing a swollen muscle. We also talk about why most supplement mechanisms sound great on paper… and quietly fall apart once you look at healthy humans who already function pretty well.From there, the conversation expands into human variability, elite athletic outliers, and why normal distributions actually guarantee that “freaks” exist — whether people are comfortable admitting it or not. We also unpack NEAT, energy expenditure, and why exercise doesn't scale linearly for fat loss, including how the body aggressively manages its energy budget when stress or activity gets too high.If you care about performance, body composition, or just understanding how the human system really works, this episode will recalibrate a lot of assumptions.Sponsors:LMNT: http://drinklmnt.com/mikenelson (automatically applied at checkout)Fitness Insider Newsletter: https://miketnelson.com/Shiftwave: https://shiftwave.co/drmiketnelsonEpisode Chapters:05:01 Diving into Beet Root and Nitrate Research05:58 Mechanisms and Effects of Nitrate Supplements10:14 Challenges and Insights in Supplement Research34:19 Elite Athletes and Physiological Variability43:16 Debating the Value of Outliers in Research44:38 The Importance of Studying Rare Genetic Conditions45:46 Challenges in Grant Writing for Rare Conditions47:39 Blood Flow and Muscle Performance49:14 The Science Behind Muscle Pumps and Hypertrophy56:09 Energy Expenditure and Physical Activity58:02 The Non-Linear Relationship Between Activity and Energy Intake01:01:28 Exercise, Appetite, and Weight Management01:14:19 Balancing Cardio and Strength Training for Optimal Health01:21:14 Closing Remarks and Resources Episodes You Might Enjoy:Episode 352: Dr. Dan Pardi on Stem Cells, Supplements, and the Future of Health with QualiaYouTube: https://youtu.be/8EZcHy_7wK8?si=aNGzT-abP9xbc6yUEpisode 343: Fueling the Corporate Athlete: Stress, Supplements & Performance with Dan HunterYouTube: https://youtu.be/0ek4XSs62RQ?si=czR_7q96jJDqXzcFConnect with Eric:Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/trexlerfitnessGet In Touch with Dr Mike:Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/drmiketnelson/YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCn1aTbQqHglfNrENPm0GTpgEmail: https://miketnelson.com/contact-us/

In this episode of the Training Science Podcast, Prof Paul Laursen is joined by Stephan Nüsser, performance physiologist and founder of a performance diagnostics lab in Germany, for a deep and practical discussion on lactate testing and endurance performance. Drawing from decades of applied work with cyclists, endurance athletes, and motocross professionals, Stephan explains how lactate can be used to individualize training, define true Zone 2 intensity, and guide long-term athlete development.The conversation explores why lactate is often misunderstood, how production and clearance reflect underlying metabolism, and why longer step protocols can provide clearer insight than fixed threshold formulas. They also discuss carb-optimized nutrition, metabolic flexibility, and why training and fueling should be viewed as a single integrated system rather than separate decisions.References:https://sndc.de/_____________________ Today's speakers:Prof Paul Laursen  https://www.paullaursen.com/   Stephan Nüsser: https://www.instagram.com/sndcde/_____________________

This is not surface level biohacking. It is a deep dive into the mechanisms that actually control aging, metabolism, muscle preservation, and brain optimization, and why most anti aging strategies fail when they ignore these foundations. This all-time classic episode from 2024, has host Dave Asprey joined by Mark Hyman, a practicing physician and one of the most respected leaders in functional medicine. Dr. Hyman is the founder and senior advisor of The UltraWellnessCenter, the founder and former head of strategy and innovation at the Cleveland Clinic Center for Functional Medicine, and a long time advocate for treating root causes instead of managing disease. With over 30 years of clinical experience, his work focuses on restoring mitochondrial health, optimizing metabolism, reversing chronic disease, and slowing biological aging using science backed interventions. Together, Dave and Mark dismantle common myths around protein, carnivore diets, ketosis, fasting, supplements, and longevity drugs. They explain why sugar accelerates aging faster than protein, how mTOR must cycle instead of staying suppressed, and why muscle, mitochondria, and metabolic flexibility matter more than calorie restriction. The conversation also covers nootropics, sleep optimization, neuroplasticity, AI driven diagnostics, and how functional medicine reframes aging as a reversible biological process rather than an inevitable decline. You'll learn: • How insulin and nutrient sensing control aging speed • Why mitochondria sit at the center of longevity and disease • The truth about mTOR, fasting, and protein intake • How ketosis and metabolic flexibility protect long term health • Where supplements and nootropics actually fit in brain optimization • Why functional medicine outperforms symptom based care • How AI and advanced testing are reshaping modern medicine Thank you to our sponsors! - MASA Chips | Go to https://www.masachips.com/DAVEASPREY and use code DAVEASPREY for 25% off your first order. -ARMRA | Go to https://tryarmra.com/ and use the code DAVE to get 15% off your first order. -OneSkin | Try OneSkin for 15% off with code DAVE at https://www.oneskin.co/DAVE.

What if the confusion around fasting and hormones isn't because the science is complicated, but because most people are using the wrong tools for the wrong goals? In this episode, I sit down with Dr. Mindy Pelz to get clear about what fasting actually does, when it helps, and when it backfires. This is a conversation about taking ownership of your metabolism instead of chasing trends that don't match your life. We talk about the viral moment from her Stephen Bartlett interview, how misinformation spreads, and what she learned from being at the center of it. Mindy breaks down her six core fasts, why women need a different strategy, and how to adjust your approach if you train hard. We get into cycle-based fasting, fertility, menopause, HRT, toxic load, peptides, creatine, apple cider vinegar, and the rise of GLP-1 drugs. If you've ever wondered how to use fasting without wrecking your energy or performance, this episode will give you a clearer path forward. Dr. Mindy Pelz is a bestselling author, educator, and functional health expert known as the fasting guru. Her books Fast Like a Girl and Age Like a Girl have helped millions of women rethink metabolic health, hormones, and aging, and she has led hundreds of thousands of people through community fasts that focus on real-world results, not quick fixes.
