Sign me up for that bloat.
So I have two different ways I have it. One is... in capsules. I put it together with taurine and magnesium because I wanted a little ATP booster. And both of those, I mean, we know taurine helps with longevity, but both of those help make ATP. So I was like, and we never seem to get enough of this stuff. So I was like, I'll put that all together. So I created, that's the product I created.
And it's in capsules. You take three and you can take another dose of Like I'll take three as my foundation. Then if I'm going to the gym, I'll take another three or you can use the powder and throw it. What I like to do when I'm going to the gym is electrolytes, creatine, and some essential amino acids.
What do I do every day? I wake up, I take my thyroid. What time do you wake up? I want to know the time. Generally, I'm waking up right now. I'm a little like I woke up at 430 because I have some stuff going on business wise that I was processing, but I got up at 530. But normally, once it's not daylight saving stupid, I think this is the dumbest thing ever. Yeah. About 630. Okay.
And what do you do? What's the first thing? Okay. So what is your routine? What's your morning routine? Yeah, I've been playing around with it because I was doing meditation every single morning and now I kind of have been reading instead. So I get up, I do my thyroid, my husband hits the coffee, most importantly. And that I always get on the bioimpedance scale. It reports to my phone.
I always watch the trend lines. So I believe that we should weigh in every single day. I travel with a bioimpedance scale. I have one at home and they go into my phone. So, you know, I don't pay attention to it so much as I'm just, we'll check to make sure, because here's the thing. Twice I have had weird weight gain. Once during the pandemic.
And then once when I landed in Spain, where literally my weight would go up a pound or two every day. And one time it was an autoimmune thing going on. Another time it was because I changed my thyroid medication and didn't pay attention to the fact that like I went from what I normally do over to armor and literally gained six pounds in like three days.
So if you're not weighing in, you wouldn't know. Right. And other part of that is when you're shifting your body composition called recomping, right, you're you're putting on muscle. And I think for all of us, our biggest goal should be to pack on as much muscle as humanly possible, which if I'm lucky, maybe I can put on another four pounds in a year at this point.
You know, it's like really hard once you're kind of where you can get to. But if I'm not watching that, I'd never know. So we do a DEXA scan once or twice a year and then I'm monitoring that at home. So do my do my little thing. Right now I'm doing reading and journaling. And then I do my – depends on the day. If I'm home, I like to get into my little hot sauna. I have a quick heat sauna.
And then I'll go into the cold plunge. Like what kind of sauna?
We have a relax. Yeah, it's like a relax or a therisage. So it's one person one. So we have two saunas at home. We have the big infrared one. And I think of all of the things, you know, the red light and all the stuff – sauna to me is like the one that I think is the most important, right? I agree. I agree. And you do that in the morning. Yeah.
Well, the reason being we'll do sauna, the infrared sauna at night and watch Netflix in there. But in the morning, 10 minutes, and then I can get in the cold plunge and I'm far enough away from my workout. Like the last thing I want to do, I could come home and get in the sauna.
That'd be great after a workout, but I can't get into the cold plunge because that can then blunt muscle protein synthesis by blocking the inflammatory response. So I do the cold in the morning.
Yeah, but I always do it before my husband because he like I'm in there and I either do my little red red light collagen mask, which I can't tell if it's working. Everyone asks, is it working? I don't know. I don't know if any of that stuff. I have no clue. Like I've got the big red light panel. How would we know? Like, I don't know. Exactly. I agree.
You know, it's, so my husband puts the neck thing on, the hat on, like, so I never put the sauna after him. It's absolutely nasty. So I have to get in there first or it's not going to happen.
Okay. Yeah. It's that type. But then I have the big thing from Sunlighten. That's the far near, right? That one.
Yeah. So, you know, that's like a whole long thing and you have to turn it on and blow. Yes. That's going to get the heat up. It's like, I know it's like not two seconds. Yeah. Yeah. No, it's not two seconds. So, so there's that. And then generally morning brain is my money brain. So I have my thinking things. And you know what happens is I always have projects that I need to do. And I never know.
This is why I could never be a professional writer, because I never know what's going to pop out and beg to be thought of. And, you know, so usually something comes out of my head that's important in the morning and I work on it. And then I eat breakfast. You're going to ask what? So I'll tell you. Currently, I have been playing around with dairy, Greek-style yogurt.
For a long time, I couldn't eat dairy. Then it looked like my gut was healed and I'm back on dairy. Although I just, now I'm doing another food sensitivity test to see how I'm doing with it. So I think I'm cool with it. So what I've been doing is doing Greek-style yogurt and stirring in bone broth protein powder. So I have a bone broth protein powder, 80% collagen.
I stir it into the Greek-style yogurt. So I'm getting everything. So that's what I like to do.
