That's four collegiate nationally ranked teams that were playing like badasses. How do I โ Fuel those women? How do I get them? What do they want to eat? What makes them feel good? What makes them feel bad? How do we balance all of that? Like I found out that putting food on a table with a tablecloth increased calories.
Again, as a high performance for me, I'm like, how are the ways that I can be thinking about this from a โ Practical standpoint, my personal thing is that we focus on trying to create, this has been really useful for Juliet and I, an objective measure, 0.8 to one grams of protein, which means I don't measure anymore. Per pound of body weight. Yeah, I'm 51 years old, per pound body weight.

So what does that mean? It means that I really try to prioritize protein every meal. Super simple. And I try not to eat one protein. I try to eat all the proteins, right? That's probably better. I try not to choose personally very fatty proteins because my genetics don't really support it. If I want to see triglycerides and things go through the roof, then watch me eat eggs and butter and steak.

Keto gives me diarrhea. So what I'll say is I try to go for leaner proteins there. And then on the fruits and vegetables, because I think we have a real problem with not enough micronutrients, again, talking about tissue health, and definitely not enough fiber. Those are huge problems. And if I get 800 grams of fruits and vegetables, this is a nutrition strategy promoted by our friend E.C.

Sienkowski at Optimize Me Nutrition. She put this 800-gram challenge based on some research. And it changed everything because suddenly I was like, oh, my God, I got to eat more food. I have to eat more fruits and vegetables. And I was stuffing myself with fruits and vegetables, getting enough protein that I was like, I guess there's no room for a cookie.

And what I really liked about that, it was agnostic about your cultural preferences. It didn't matter if you were vegan, didn't matter if you were vegetarian, didn't matter if you were carnivore. You want to do carnivore plus berries, knock yourself right out. It gave people permission to have their food identities, but it also met the minimums.
