Ever feel like you’re running low on energy while trying to manage everything? How do successful leaders manage to keep going without burning out?

In this episode, I had a chat with Clark Masterson about how leaders manage their energy to stay effective. We talked about the importance of balancing mental, physical, and emotional energy. Clark explained that successful leaders don’t just rely on one source of energy; they know that their performance depends on how well they handle these different types of energy.

Clark shared that it’s important to recognize when your energy is low and learn how to recharge effectively to avoid burnout. He offered practical tips on how high performers use different “batteries” of energy to be fully present in their roles. This way, they can stay engaged without feeling drained.

Key Takeaways:

• Success isn’t just about hard work; it’s about managing your energy wisely.

• By balancing mental, physical, and emotional energy, you can stay sharp and avoid burnout.

• Prioritizing rest and recovery is crucial for maintaining energy.

Think food is the only thing impacting your blood sugar? There's a hidden factor you're probably overlooking.

In today's episode I sat down with Dr. Heather Stone to talk about how stress and what we eat directly affect our blood sugar and autoimmune health. Dr. Stone shares how using continuous glucose monitors (CGMs) helps track how food impacts the body, and why this is key for managing autoimmune conditions. She even talks about how her son used a CGM to see how his diet affected his energy as an athlete.

We also explore how stress raises your blood sugar and insulin levels. It’s not just about food—stress management plays a big role in keeping these conditions under control.

Key Takeaways:

• Muscle mass can improve your body’s ability to metabolize glucose, helping regulate blood sugar levels.

• Autoimmune diseases can go into remission with the right lifestyle adjustments.

• Prioritizing long-term health requires consistent attention, not just short-term fixes or treatments.

In this episode of the Low Carb Hustle, we dive into the powerful combination of fasting and amino acids to boost brain health, improve gut function, and accelerate fat loss. Discover how fasting triggers autophagy, a natural process of cellular cleanup, while supplementing with branched-chain amino acids (BCAAs) like leucine, isoleucine, and valine helps preserve muscle and optimize energy levels. We also explore the role of glutamine in repairing the gut lining and enhancing insulin sensitivity, making this strategy a game-changer for anyone looking to improve health and performance.

Ready to implement this strategy? Start with a 16:8 fasting routine and add essential amino acids during your fast for maximum benefits. For an extra edge, check out Fast Aid by Million Dollar Body Labs to support your fasting journey and keep hunger at bay while fueling your body for optimal results.

In this episode of the Low Carb Hustle podcast, we dive deep into one of the lesser-known benefits of a low-carb diet: improved mental clarity and focus. While most people associate low-carb eating with fat loss, the cognitive perks are just as powerful—especially for entrepreneurs, athletes, and anyone striving for peak performance.

We start by taking a sobering look at the current state of health in the U.S. Did you know that over 42% of Americans are obese, and obesity has been linked to poor cognitive function and brain fog? We’ll also cover other concerning statistics like the 1 in 5 adults dealing with mental health issues such as anxiety and depression. But it’s not all bad news—there's hope, and that’s where low-carb diets come in.

• Why carbs can negatively affect brain function: High-carb diets often lead to energy crashes, brain fog, and poor concentration due to blood sugar fluctuations and inflammation.
• The impact of low-carb eating on memory, focus, and productivity: Studies show that low-carb diets can enhance memory retention, reduce brain fog, and improve overall focus—perfect for anyone with demanding mental workloads.
• Practical tips to start using low-carb for better mental clarity: Learn how to ease into a low-carb lifestyle and boost your brainpower with simple dietary changes.

What if the real challenge starts after the challenge? Explore ways to maintain your progress beyond the finish line.

In this episode, I chat with Trevor Wittwer about the balancing act coaches face in helping clients achieve lasting change. We delve into why it’s crucial to be honest with clients who might not be ready for change and how pushing them too soon can backfire.

Trevor introduces a method he calls "interval fat loss," where clients push hard for a set period and then ease into maintenance mode before ramping up again. This approach helps prevent burnout and supports long-term weight maintenance.

We also discuss the extent of responsibility coaches should take for their clients’ results and why it’s essential for clients to drive their own progress. Plus, we explore how technology can support coaching, but emphasize that the personal connection between coach and client remains key to real success.

Key Takeaways:

• Be honest if a client isn’t ready to change. Forcing change can be unproductive for both the client and the coach.

• Coaches should provide tools and guidance, but cannot control client outcomes.

• Technology is useful, but human connection is what really drives success.

In this new Low Carb hustle episode I give you the results of my last 30 day experiment!

I was taking baking soda daily for 30 days in an effort to improve my performance in some intense cardio outputs for jui jitsu, biking, and BFR training.

Unfortunately it's hard to have a lot of objective data here since it didn't make a difference on many of my wearable tech devices (plus I don't wear them when I train BJJ to avoid breaking fingers).

But the results were interesting and I definitely felt a big difference! Check out this episode to hear more about the experiment, dose, and results!
