When I finally figured that out and started adding less fat when I was building muscle and then dieting off less muscle when I was dieting, when I was trying to get the best condition possible, I achieved a better level of fitness. I had more energy. I had maintained more muscle, which allowed me to get into better condition.

So all of those things worked from personal experience and then ultimately understanding the science behind what I was doing wrong.

that the the type of food and that quality of that food and where that food is grown and where it comes from actually matters a lot what played a role in that journey yeah i think it's the micronutrient some of the satiety was linked to that mostly the blood testing i started doing blood testing many years ago on a regular basis and you would see deficiencies you'd see metabolic syndrome when you gain too much body fat you know be hypertension and maybe liver enzymes or kidney enzymes elevation

you start to see LDL go up, your lipids, dyslipidemia. You start to see all these problems when you gain too much body fat, particularly if it's ectopic or visceral fat around the fatty liver, non-alcoholic fatty liver disease, and ultimately getting all the other problems are kind of downstream of that, all the hypertension, dyslipidemia, and the like.

So that became important not to gain just too much body fat. And so I was more particular about the types of foods I ate, but it was probably mostly in the dieting with the women and seeing the results with them that made me focus on the micronutrients so heavily, uh, as mentioned with the, uh, female triad and all of those over restrictive diets. I just last summer, I was working with a

A softball team, a high school softball team, and two of the girls had significantly underperformed in one of the tests that we were doing to see if they were progressing. We like to measure everything. That which gets measured gets improved. And so we measured speed and strength for athletes, and their 40-meter laser time went down significantly. When everyone else was going up and progressing.

And so we asked, you know, we pulled aside and we talked to the parents, we talked to the kids, find out what's going on. As it turns out, they had, you know, sleep is usually one of the biggest things that goes wrong, especially for high school athletes. But in this case, they just started over restricting. They had gone into a very limited restrictive diet, like the guru diet I mentioned earlier.
