Because my bias has been validated, I can leave now. So I really try to get people focused on the stuff that matters the most, right? So this is, if we're worried about carbohydrate timing... Even if there are differences, we are zoomed way in on the blade of grass, right? We're not zooming out all the way.

And I think, hey, if somebody likes to eat more carbohydrate in the morning and that fits their lifestyle and that is easy for them to continue to do, then I would say do that.

So there are no solutions, only tradeoffs. Right. And when it comes to carbohydrate intake, you'll hear people say the data is all over the place. OK, in terms of like timing and how people feel. So I feel sleepy after I have carbs. Some people have I feel great after I have carbs. I'm ready to go left. I have a big carb meal before I go left. You know, it seems to be all over the map.

Now, here's the thing. What I'll tell people. Because when people ask me how I eat, people have wanted me to do a full day of eating video. And I've kind of put it off for a while because I'm like, so much of the stuff I do, I'm not going to give you guys a citation for. And I know you're going to want it. And some of the stuff I do, because I just like doing it that way.

I grew up in the era of bodybuilding magazines where they said you've got to have a big carbohydrate intake and a big meal before you go train and a big meal after you train. So guess what I did? I got in the habit of eating like that and it still sticks to this day. I don't try to tell people it's better doing it that way.

Plenty of people have told me, hey, I don't feel good with a lot of my stomach when I go train. Or if I have a carb-heavy meal in the morning, I feel tired. The data doesn't really support that in terms of like on an average response. But if you know that you feel that way, then by all means avoid, right? Like there's – I remember one time I –

So I used to go to a massage therapist in Tampa who would do cupping. And there's really no data to back up the efficacy of cupping. Is that right? Yeah, not much. But she did it. I liked the way it felt. And I'm like, OK, whatever. So I posted a picture of me flexing one time, you know, and there's the cup marks all over. And everybody's like going crazy, like, how could you do this?

I'm like, hey, hey, hey, hey, wait a second. I never said this does this. And I never made any claims about it. She does it and I like the way it feels. I'm not saying it does anything. Actually, one of the things about being a scientist is like now I'm impossible to placebo, which is really annoying because I would love to be able to placebo myself a little bit more.
