Boost #Testosterone Naturally! Testosterone isn’t just about muscles or masculinity, it's about your energy, mood, and drive. It’s more common than you think. Long work hours, belly fat, poor sleep, high stress, and too much screen time can all mess with your testosterone levels, often without you realizing it. Testosterone levels decrease naturally with age. Lower testosterone levels can lead to: •Hair thinning •Muscle loss •Fragile skin •Low libido •Mood swings, brain fog What can you do to maintain this hormone level in the body? .Move more: Resistance training, HIIT, strength exercises (but don’t overtrain) •Eat smarter: Foods rich in healthy fats, proteins, and key nutrients like vitamin D, zinc, and magnesium. Foods to focus on: eggs, fish, chicken, red meat, ghee, milk, curd, paneer, sprouts (moong, chana), whole grains •Prioritize sleep: Aim for 7 - 8 quality hours •Stress less: Chronic stress = high cortisol = lower testosterone •Ditch plastics: Swap plastic containers for glass or steel •Limit alcohol and quit smoking: Both disrupt hormone balance The easiest way to balance testosterone (and keep it steady) is to take care of your basics: how you eat, how you move, and how you rest. Always go for change that lasts, your hormones will thank you, and your energy will show it. #TestosteroneTips #NaturalHealth #Wellness

Testosterone is far more than just a muscle-building hormone. It’s a cornerstone of health influencing mood, cognition, bone density, libido, and even longevity. In this episode, Derek (More Plates More Dates), host of the popular YouTube channel ‘More Plates More Dates' and co-founder of Marek Health, joins me to unpack testosterone’s true role in health, from bone density and insulin sensitivity to brain function and longevity. We cover how lifestyle factors, diet, and micronutrients like vitamin D, zinc, and magnesium shape testosterone levels, and which testosterone-boosting supplements actually work versus those that are just hype. We dive deep into testosterone replacement therapy—when it’s warranted, what benefits to expect, the risks (like polycythemia and fertility suppression), and how delivery methods such as injections, creams, and orals formulations differ. We also explore testosterone therapy for women, cardiovascular disease and prostate cancer risk, and how DHT drives hair loss, plus the safety and efficacy of treatments like finasteride, minoxidil, microneedling, and ketoconazole shampoo. If you want to understand testosterone beyond the headlines, including its functions, its tradeoffs, and the practical ways to optimize it, this conversation is a must-listen. Links in the next post.

What's the number one mistake that people make about satiety? Also, how can chicken breast and broccoli be high satiety per calorie (SPC), if people do not really feel full eating them? This may be the biggest misunderstanding that stops people from using satiety to lose weight and improve their metabolic health. As Ted ⚡️ Naiman shares in this clip, the fundamental misunderstanding is mixing up satiety with satiety per calorie. The best way to get a lot of satiety? Go to a buffet and eat a lot of everything you see. You'll get a lot of satiety, but at a cost of thousands and thousands of calories. Now, if you instead eat extremely high satiety per calorie foods, lets say egg whites and broccoli, you will likely not eat a lot of food. You'll probably end up eating quite few calories. So few, in fact, that you won't feel all that much satiety. In the latter case you ate super-high satiety per calorie foods, but very few calories. Therefore, the satiety you feel still isn't that high. Think of it like this. The higher the satiety per calorie number of the foods you eat, the fewer calories you're likely to end up eating. Period. However, the goal should not be to eat the very lowest number of calories you can. You can eat too little, and that won't make you feel your best. For example, eat only skinless chicken breast (76) and broccoli (89), and your average satiety per calorie may be 80. You'll eat very few calories and sure, you'll lose weight. But it will probably be fairly miserable. It's just too high, too effective. The goal should be to find a good balance for you. If you're looking for weight loss, that might be in the 50-70 range of average satiety per calorie. That's it for today. Don't mistake satiety and satiety per calorie. They are different ways of looking at things. Find the right balance for you. Not too high. Not too low. Just right. Or like we say in Sweden: Lagom. What's your favorite SPC range?

8 key takeaways on protein intake: 1) Most people should consume 1.2-1.6 g/kg (0.54-0.72 g/lb) per day, and calculate needs based on lean body mass 2) The post-exercise "anabolic window" isn't as narrow as once believed — total daily intake matters far more than exact timing around workouts 3) Try to distribute protein evenly across the day (but again, total daily intake is much more important) 4) Pre-sleep protein intake (~30g) can be beneficial, especially for older adults and athletes 5) High-quality supplements like whey and casein proteins offer targeted benefits (and even if you meet your protein needs through diet, supplementation can provide additional advantages) 6) Animal proteins are generally superior to plant proteins for maximizing muscle protein synthesis 7) Concerns about high protein intake harming healthy kidneys are largely unfounded 8) High protein intake doesn't reduce longevity or promote cancer growth if you exercise (exercise helps direct amino acids and growth factors toward beneficial uses)

☁️ CLOUD BREAD 🍞 Only 2 Ingredients! (High Protein, Low Carb) Just tried this viral fluff and it’s insane. Light as a cloud, tastes like actual bread, zero guilt. Perfect for keto, high-protein diets, or just when you’re craving something fresh out the oven. Recipe (makes 1 loaf): • 3 eggs (yolks + whites separated) • 150g Greek yogurt (or lactose-free) • Pinch of salt (optional) How to make it: 1. Whip egg whites to stiff peaks (electric mixer works best). 2. Mix yolks + Greek yogurt until smooth. 3. Gently fold whites into yolk mix (don’t overmix – keep it airy!). 4. Pour into parchment-lined loaf tin. 5. Bake at 170°C / 340°F for 25-30 min until golden. 6. Cool slightly, slice & enjoy. Macros (whole loaf approx): ~300 kcal | 33g protein | ~5-7g carbs | ~15g fat. This thing pulls apart like fresh sourdough but it’s basically pure protein. Game changer for breakfast, sandwiches, or snacking. If you ever have made this feel free to reply.

🍖🥚 PORK + EGGS IN ONE MEAL ? ✅ Health Benefits High-Quality Protein Boost: Pork + eggs give your body all essential amino acids for muscle growth and repair. Rich in Vitamins & Minerals: Pork → B1, B6, B12, zinc, iron Eggs → Vitamin D, choline, selenium Improved Energy Levels: This combo stabilizes blood sugar and keeps you full longer. Supports Brain & Nerve Function: Eggs provide choline; pork provides B-vitamins for mental performance. ⚠️ Potential Risks High Cholesterol & Saturated Fat: Eating too much may increase heart disease risk. Sodium Levels: Processed pork (bacon, sausages) may raise blood pressure. Overeating Calories: The combo is calorie-dense; portion control is important. Food Safety Concerns: Pork must be fully cooked to avoid infections; eggs should be well-cooked to prevent salmonella. 🍽️ Best Way to Eat Them Together Choose lean pork (tenderloin, fillet, loin chops). Cook with less oil (grill, bake, or air fry). Pair with vegetables for fiber and balance. Limit processed pork (bacon, ham, sausages). Ideal portion: 120–150g pork + 1–2 eggs per meal.

The New Vegan Bloodwork is in‼️💪🌱🌍🧬⚡️✅ Face ID Login screen recorded video included for authentication ✅⤵️ After almost 8 years vegan now (7 years 10 months 17 days) see my most recent bio markers and read more below to get a breakdown of the new daily macro & calorie goals I’ll be following from today until my next labs - where I will then re-analyze and make any adjustments necessary‼️⤵️ Total T from March: 1136 ➡️ 1147 ✅ (consistently ranging from 1136 low to 1174 high for the last 2-3 years while I’ve been over the age of 30) ApoB - 1 year change: 68 ➡️ 63 ✅ (decreasing heart disease risk even with the increase in LDL from 60 to 64 and triglycerides from 40 to 52) HDL - 6 month change: 46 ➡️ 49 ✅ (more good cholesterol > 40 decreases my heart disease risk) LH - 1 year change: 4.9 ➡️ 8.6 ✅ (in the upper optimal range now from mid range a year ago - INCREASING while my testosterone(total & free)/estradiol/SHBG stay high 🤯 - proving that it’s clearly my body making the high natural sex hormones - not any extraneous unnatural source. So What’s the Plan Now⁉️⤵️: I’m going to keep doing what I’ve been doing the last 3-6 months (increased calories from healthy plant based fats while continuing to push my cardio training to the limit and resistance training for muscle mass maintenance) because it’s working perfectly as designed & pushing the exact numbers up that I wanted to move up! 💪🌱📈✅ I’ll try to stick to monounsaturated fats and not poly as the more poly fats may have lead to my trigs increasing as well. Part of that plan is also continuing to eat ~250-350gs of carbs, ~150-250gs protein, and ~100gs of healthy fats for 2500-3300 calories/day while consistently burning ~1000 of those calories a day on training days. 🌱🔥✅ Let’s discuss… what questions do you have⁉️😤🦍⤵️ 💪🌱🌍🧬⚡️✅

Everyone thinks losing weight is just about eating less. But most people: - Starve themselves - Kill their metabolism... And don´t even lose weight anyway. So here are 10 metabolism cheat codes to melt stubborn fat (without eating less): 🧵 1. Do NOT go Vegan. The vegan diet completely lacks 12 different nutrients that only exist in animal-based foods. These nutrients are vital for your metabolism and hormones. Steak and eggs are two of the best foods in the world for metabolism, weight loss and health. 2. Resistance train Muscle is the #1 fat-burning organ. It burns calories 24/7, even while you sleep. - Go close to failure - Train 3 hours a week - Focus on compound exercises 3. Eat more protein. You burn off 20-30% of the calories you get from protein just by digesting it. It also lowers hunger and helps maintain and build muscle to burn even more calories too. Eat 1g per lb of bodyweight everyday. 4. Don´t cut out carbs too much. Low-carb = lower thyroid and testosterone. You´ll also feel more sluggish which reduces your calorie-burn from NEAT. Eat as much fruit as you want and potatoes instead of bread and pasta. 5. Improve your sleep. Poor sleep crushes your metabolism. Think about how more physically tired you feel after a night of bad sleep. Don´t eat late in the evening, keep your bedroom cooler and supplement magnesium glycinate. 6. Cold exposure. It´s not a fad - it´s scientifically proven. It boosts your metabolism and activates brown fat oxidation. All you need to get the benefits is 2-minute cold showers 7. Manage stress. High cortisol slows your metabolism and makes your body want to hold onto fat. The best way to reduce stress? Improve your physical health. Healthy diet. Exercise. Better sleep. 8. Fuel your thyroid. It´s the organ that literally runs your metabolism but nobody thinks about it. Even worse? Very low-calorie diets actually slow it down making it even harder to lose fat. Make sure you: - Get enough iodine & selenium - Improve your sleep & manage stress. 9. Eat as much fruit as you want. Certain influencers will claim that fruit is bad due to the sugar... As if people are overweight due to eating a lot of fruit... But nobody got fat from fruit. It was from a ton of calories from processed junk and a lack of exercise. Fruit is still low in calories as it´s mostly water and the sugar and vitamins help keep you healthy and your metabolism firing. The best fruits for metabolism and weight loss are berries and watermelon. The Bottom Line: The best way to lose weight is NOT eating way less. It´s boosting your metabolism so you can eat enough and still lose weight. Imagine how easy it would be to lose weight if you could eat a lot and not be too hungry? If you liked this post: 1.

Resistance train Muscle is the #1 fat-burning organ. It burns calories 24/7, even while you sleep. - Go close to failure - Train 3 hours a week - Focus on compound exercises 3. Eat more protein. You burn off 20-30% of the calories you get from protein just by digesting it. It also lowers hunger and helps maintain and build muscle to burn even more calories too. Eat 1g per lb of bodyweight everyday. 4. Don´t cut out carbs too much. Low-carb = lower thyroid and testosterone. You´ll also feel more sluggish which reduces your calorie-burn from NEAT. Eat as much fruit as you want and potatoes instead of bread and pasta. 5. Improve your sleep. Poor sleep crushes your metabolism. Think about how more physically tired you feel after a night of bad sleep. Don´t eat late in the evening, keep your bedroom cooler and supplement magnesium glycinate. 6. Cold exposure. It´s not a fad - it´s scientifically proven. It boosts your metabolism and activates brown fat oxidation. All you need to get the benefits is 2-minute cold showers 7. Manage stress. High cortisol slows your metabolism and makes your body want to hold onto fat. The best way to reduce stress? Improve your physical health. Healthy diet. Exercise. Better sleep. 8. Fuel your thyroid. It´s the organ that literally runs your metabolism but nobody thinks about it. Even worse? Very low-calorie diets actually slow it down making it even harder to lose fat. Make sure you: - Get enough iodine & selenium - Improve your sleep & manage stress. 9. Eat as much fruit as you want. Certain influencers will claim that fruit is bad due to the sugar... As if people are overweight due to eating a lot of fruit... But nobody got fat from fruit. It was from a ton of calories from processed junk and a lack of exercise. Fruit is still low in calories as it´s mostly water and the sugar and vitamins help keep you healthy and your metabolism firing. The best fruits for metabolism and weight loss are berries and watermelon. The Bottom Line: The best way to lose weight is NOT eating way less. It´s boosting your metabolism so you can eat enough and still lose weight. Imagine how easy it would be to lose weight if you could eat a lot and not be too hungry? If you liked this post: 1.

Up to 30% of the weight lost while dieting can come from lean muscle mass—but the right training and nutrition can help you preserve muscle, which is key for metabolic health and reducing the risk of sarcopenia. You can lose fat and gain muscle at the same time—a process called body recomposition—if you train and eat strategically. The most important factor is resistance training. Lifting heavy 2–3 times per week is essential for maintaining and building muscle while losing fat. Without it, muscle mass inevitably declines. Nutrition also plays a major role. Eating in a slight calorie deficit—around 10–20% below maintenance—allows for steady fat loss without sacrificing muscle, energy levels, or training performance. Protein intake is another key priority. Research shows that consuming 1.8 to 2.2 grams of protein per kilogram of body weight per day is optimal for muscle retention and growth during a calorie deficit, and going even higher may provide additional benefits. Beyond training and nutrition, recovery is just as crucial. Adequate sleep, stress management, and tracking progress help ensure you’re making real, sustainable changes. Get this right and you have a powerful strategy to build muscle and lose fat. If you want to learn more about optimizing body recomposition, improving VO2 max, and enhancing brain health, tune into the latest episode of the FoundMyFitness podcast, where and I break it all down with insights from top experts.

Dan Quinn said, "Sometimes as coaches and leaders, you have to tell them the things they don't want to hear." "I'm comfortable doing that because they know I come from a place that I care about them, I love them, and I want the best for them." As players, be grateful when a coach tells you the truth because it shows you they care. They tell you the truth because they believe in you and your potential. • They want what's best for you. • They care about you as a person. • They see what you're capable of, even when you don't. Great leaders hold you accountable because they know it's the only way to help you grow into your best self. It means telling the hard truths while showing empathy and belief in your potential. Great Coaches Balance 3 Things: 1. Caring for you - Great coaches want what's best for you. They care for you as a person and believe in you and your potential. This is why they hold you to a high standard - they see what you can become, even when you don’t yet. 2. Having high standards - High standards set expectations. It creates clarity and direction about what habits and actions are expected. Great coaches set the bar high because they want the best for you, not because it’s easy. When someone believes in you enough to expect greatness, it inspires you to rise to the challenge. 3. Pushing you to grow before your comfort zone - Growth doesn’t happen without discomfort, and this is where development starts. Great coaches look to challenge you and develop you over time. This means expecting challenges, facing adversity, and refusing to accept the status quo. Bottom Line: People don't care how much you know until they know how much you care. Leadership will always be a relationship business.

Before high carbohydrate fueling, I finished every race totally wrecked. Even in my best races, I’d cross the finish line desperate to stop. As an athlete, I had no idea how anyone could go farther than 50k. With high carb, I had a new realization: what I thought was an endurance limitation was just a fueling limitation. 100 milers feel easier than some trail 30ks I used to do. But knowing the science of high carb and actually slurping down tons of gels in a race setting are two different things. Episode 10 is all about a practice race at the Cheyenne Mountain 50k where the main goal was to get over 125 grams of carbs per hour (500+ calories) in an urgent, high-performance setting (I got to 135 grams per hour, which was a prelude to 150 grams per hour at my 50 miler 2 weeks later). It’s a super fun video by amazing director Cody Bare and presented by The Feed 🧡 Watch here and subscribe: What does high carb look like for everyone? It doesn’t have to be complicated! When you are pushing harder, start with a 40 gram of carb gel every 30 min plus electrolyte drink for hydration, dialed into your sweat needs. I think that anyone can learn to take a 40 gram gel every 30 min, and that alone will do more for endurance performance than almost every training intervention (except easy running and strides, of course 😂). You deserve high carb. In hard events, it improves adaptation AND health outcomes. Don’t listen to anyone preaching to you about health risks or fat adaptation like it’s 2010. The science has moved past that. Fuel the work you are doing. I just wish I could go back to 2010 and show my younger self this video of the end of a 50k. Oh how different the next 13 years could have been! That’s why I come to you with this message now: Give yourself the gift of higher carb, and higher carb will give you the gift of exploring new horizons. Carbs are for everyone 🧡💚💜

Fitness Update: End of 3 months of Bulking. Starting a 3 month cut tomorrow, my last cut of 2026. I lost about 50 pounds from January 2025 till the end of March 2026 with a 13 month straight cut aided by Retatrutide and Tirzepatide. Counted calories and ran a deficit and lifted weights the whole time. My body needed a break and a reset from the stress of cutting for that long and constant downregulating of my metabolism. I decided to take April off and just do more calories and more lifting, and that turned into deciding to do May and June as well. So for 3 months straight I've been eating a lot more and lifting a LOT. I've gained about 5 pounds. Abs are not very visible anymore. But I've put on some muscle and strength as well and increased my base metabolic rate by several hundred calories. This is positioning me to be able to better be able to run a deficit again and continue into another cut with more energy and success possible. So this is me thicc boi mode ready to start a cut and get lean and mean. I'm sitting at ~195 right now and ~16-18% body fat. Goal of my cut is to get to the 180 or so range over the next 3 months and be in the 12-13% BF range, at which point I'll do a slow patient bulk through Oct-January and enjoy the fall and Holidays with lots of calories and strength training. Starting tomorrow I'm going to add 30-45 minutes of daily fasted zone 2 cardio first thing in the morning to burn an extra 150-300 cals. And I will drop my daily calorie allowance about 400 calories from what I've been eating the last few months. (2500-2800 down to 2200 to start, lowering later to 2100 and 2000 lowest if necessary to keep rate of loss where I want) This should get me the 1+ pound per week rate of loss I'm looking for. And I'll continue to prioritize lifting and protein as well to preserve the muscle mass I've built up and get as much of the loss to be fat as possible. I'm also going zero alcohol the whole cut as well. If I execute well, I'll be by far the fittest and leanest I've ever been at the end of September and I'm excited to see what that looks and feels like when I get there. Going from 70+ pounds overweight to building your dream physique isn't a quick process, people. Give yourself a couple of years to work on it systematically. It took you years to get out of shape, so you can take a couple years to get into great shape. But once you're there it's easier to stay there than it was to get there thankfully. The work continues. Let me know if you have any questions about anything. I'm documenting the whole process and will keep y'all up to speed. Open book. Building in public for accountability and hopefully to help others with their journey as well. 4th pic is me at my fattest in 2024. Embarrassing to post but necessary conext. I was in a sad, sad state you guys and heading towards diabetes and an early grave. If I can do this, you can do this!

⚠️🇷🇼ALERT: 5 Reasons Why You Should Not Move To Rwanda… The Ugly Truth: 1: Tourists are kidnapped for money (“kidnapping” incident happens multiple times at a bus stop involving 15+ people surrounding the vehicle and demanding forced payment) 2: Rwandans only speak one language, which is Kinyarwanda; no English, no French, and no Swahili, the communication is dead for visitors 3. You cannot find basic items in the local store; most grocery stores are empty, and you need to order on Amazon 4. High cost of living for what you get. Prices in Rwanda are now as high as in the US and Canada, raising questions about how ordinary people are surviving. 5. Alcoholism is a major problem in Rwanda.

You cannot find basic items in the local store; most grocery stores are empty, and you need to order on Amazon 4. High cost of living for what you get. Prices in Rwanda are now as high as in the US and Canada, raising questions about how ordinary people are surviving. 5. Alcoholism is a major problem in Rwanda. Multiple incidents occurred where intoxicated individuals aggressively try to force services, extort money from visitors, or physically block departure VIDEO S/C: TESTIMONY BY A BLACK AMERICAN VISITOR IN RWANDA ON the YouTube channel Eddie

EASY high protein chicken salad that just works. This has lots of Mediterranean food flavors, plus 134g protein in total. Divide this into 3 super filling servings, to get 44g protein for just 370 calories. This combination is so delicious, so refreshing, with lots of Mediterranean flavors. I added a touch of pickle juice to the dressing for a flavor kick - it brings everything together, and it adds such a nice touch. I’ve lost over 150 eating high-protein, lowcarb meals like this. Scoop it with some lowcarb crackers, stuff it into lettuce cups, pile it into wraps, or if you’re not lowcarb some toasted sourdough & avocado. Here’s how I made it: 1️⃣ Add 3 cups pulled or diced cooked chicken to a salad bowl. Add 4-5oz of finely chopped arugula or baby kale, 3 finely diced Persian cucumbers, 3 finely diced celery stalks, 1/2 small diced red onion, 3 thinly sliced scallions, and lots of fresh mint (about 4-5 tbsp). 2️⃣ In a separate jar, mix 1/2 cup plain Greek yogurt, 2.5 tbsp mayo, 1.5 tsp Dijon mustard, 3 tbsp pickle juice, 1/4 tsp garlic powder, 1/2 tsp salt, 1/2 tsp freshly cracked black pepper, and 1 tsp olive oil. Shake until smooth. Taste and adjust salt if needed. 3️⃣ Pour the dressing over the salad, then toss gentlym taste and adjust however way you want. 4️⃣ You can add some more fresh mint on top before serving, or some crushed up walnuts, pistachios or pine nuts. If you make it, be sure to let me know on SHREDHAPPENS 🔥 I share easy high protein recipes, lowcarb meals, and lots of Mediterranean food, so check it out! ENJOY! #lowcarb #lowcarbrecipes #chickensalad #healthyrecipes #mediterraneanfood

The Complete Futures Trading Strategy (Just 3 Steps, 2 Timeframes) (and if you want the full 2-hour masterclass from which the video below was clipped from—just comment “MASTERCLASS” and I’ll DM it to you in the next few minutes) Firstly, futures trading helps you achieve consistent profits with maximum flexibility—trade around your 9-5, your timezone, or any lifestyle commitment. It's one of the easiest markets to trade because: (1) You get regulated leverage without shady brokers (2) Deep liquidity means instant execution with zero slippage (3) Markets are open 23 hours a day from Sunday evening to Friday evening (4) And you can trade during Asia, London, or New York sessions—whenever fits YOUR schedule. HOW TO START: You only need 2 timeframes: 1) Higher timeframe: 5-minute 2) Lower timeframe: 1-minute Then we use these while following the 3-step strategy: Step 1: Identify Break of Structure On the 5-minute chart, find where price breaks the previous swing high (bullish) or swing low (bearish). This tells you the trend direction. If bullish, only look for longs. If bearish, only shorts. Step 2: Mark High-Probability Zones Find the supply/demand zone that LED to that break of structure. A high-probability zone must have all three: 1) Created a break of structure 2) Left an imbalance (gap in price) 3) Swept liquidity (triggered stop losses) Step 3: Wait for Entry Signal Avoid entering on first mitigation—that's the trap (inducement). Instead, wait for price to: 1) Mitigate your zone 2) Create a fake bounce (inducement) 3) Sweep the liquidity below/above that first reaction 4) THEN enter on the second move Then place stop loss below the liquidity sweep candle. Target minimum 1:2 risk-reward.
