Humans evolved away from apes by reducing the size of the large intestine by 77%. Which drastically reduced our ability to extract nutrition from plant foods. While the small intestine became 64% longer. Improving protein and fat digestion. We used to be adapted to eat fiber. But that was four million years ago.

We've since replaced that with the adaption to eat meat, and the ability to be human. 

SAMA HOOLE: You lose weight by eating nutrient dense animal foods that prevent overeating via their intense satiety, while increasing energy expenditure by giving the body all the necessary building blocks for high performance.

Losing weight through cardio is an extremely inefficient use of time.

Just a few hundred calories to show for an hour of running.

Which can then turn to zero as the body compensates by conserving energy in the aftermath.

You don't lose weight through cardio.

You lose weight…

“It’s not what happens to you, but how you react to it that matters.” - Epictetus You can’t stop people from being unfair, life from being chaotic, or plans from falling apart. But you decide whether to spiral, sulk, or sharpen. Most pain isn’t in the event, it’s in the emotional overreaction that follows. The insult, the rejection, the failure: they don’t define you. Your reaction does. Every time you keep your composure, you steal power back from the world.

Turn triggers into training.
