So that only gets amplified when you're talking about running, thinning, training, and you're doing more intense activity, the calorie requirement gets doubled, tripled, sometimes even higher than that. So that's something I had to learn over time. Like the science was given to me almost during like my recovery. Like you're going to be fatigued, this is tiring, and here's why.
It just requires that much more energy to move you from point A to point B. I'm like, oh man, so I really gotta, I really gotta be loading up. And I was familiar with it when I, there was a window in time, post-college football and pre-military that I transitioned more into like strongman and like powerlifting type stuff. I was doing a little bit of boxing, a little bit of wrestling.

But I was doing VIP security and nightclub security in Boston. And I was getting a lot of business based on my physical size with what I was doing for work. But I just wanted to see how big and strong I could get. So I had gone through a phase where I was hammering down crazy amounts of calories.

So I was used to kind of this forced feeding concept, but actually during that window, I was burning so much that I was genuinely hungry most of the time that I was eating. There were certainly phases when I was like, oh, I just got to choke down this, another chicken breast or like whatever I was eating. But there was so much output that I needed the fuel.

And it took me a while to kind of dial that in and play around with it. I had some great coaches and dieticians that helped me with those formulas. But at the end of the day, you're the one that's got to have it all prepared, have it all with you, and actually just do it. And those that are listening, and you and I live in the fitness world, preparation, it goes a long way, man.

At the end of the day, you're going to eat when you're hungry. And if you don't have the thing that you are supposed to be consuming right there, when that alarm starts to go off, that's when we typically just start to stray. So most of that effect takes place before the actual task itself.

And it's a lot to consume, but you can knock that out in an hour or two, once or twice a week, have everything you need to go ready to go. And then it's just automated discipline of execution.

Some of the people I get to work with that are focused more on like HPW and performance and wellness and fitness and health is, I just did this with a client. I'm like, here's what I want you to do. I want you to get a cooler, like a lunch pail, like some kind of receptacle that is dedicated to carrying food and nutrients around. That's it. Just go acquire one if you don't already have one.
