What is Protein Pacing?

You know I talk A LOT about protein and how important it is for metabolic health, longevity and athletic performance but have you heard of protein pacing yet?

It's a simple, science-backed strategy that can help you improve your body composition, metabolic health and sport performance. True to its name, protein pacing is all about optimizing the timing and amount of protein you eat throughout the day.

Let’s dive in a bit deeper so you have a better understanding of how to implement this strategy.

Protein pacing means consuming regular, evenly spaced servings of high-quality protein—typically every 3–4 hours throughout the day. Instead of varying your protein intake at each meal, protein pacing encourages consuming evenly spaced servings of protein, typically every 3-4 hours, throughout the day.

This can help to stimulate muscle protein synthesis, manage appetite and hunger, support stable energy levels, and enhance training adaptations while keeping your body in a more consistent state of repair, recovery and metabolic activation.

Let’s dive into the benefits a bit more now...

Nutritional Biohacks for Optimized Athlete Sleep and Recovery

Think of sleep as your ultimate recovery tool, and nutrition as the fuel that optimizes its power. Just as you carefully consider your pre-workout fuel and post-workout protein, what you consume (or don't consume) before bed can significantly impact your ability to sleep smarter and, in turn, recover faster.

Sleep Quality and Athletic Recovery
During deep sleep stages, your body orchestrates a symphony of recovery processes:

Fueling for the Marathon: Your Key to Peak Performance

Training for a marathon isn’t just about logging miles. It also depends on fueling your body in a way that supports your performance. A thoughtful nutrition plan can make the difference between hitting the wall and finishing strong.

Fueling During Training

Your nutrition starts long before race day. It’s important to eat enough during training to match your workload and support recovery. It’s a good idea to practice your race-day fueling during training runs. Using carbohydrate drinks and gels at your goal pace helps your stomach adapt to what you plan to use on race day. Practicing this several times builds confidence and consistency for the race...

mTOR vs AMPK: The Cellular Switches That Control Growth and Energy

If you have been following any of the recent longevity discussions on social media lately, you likely have heard of mTOR and AMPK. Both are extremely important for different reasons.

Every cell in the body has a sophisticated network that decides whether to build up or break down, grow or conserve, perform or recover.

Two of the most powerful regulators of this network are mTOR (mechanistic Target of Rapamycin) and AMPK (AMP-Activated Protein Kinase).

They operate like biological opposites. When one is active, the other is often suppressed.

I know it may sound a bit complex but stay with me because understanding this relationship between these two is key for optimizing your training, recovery, longevity and overall metabolic health.

Let’s start with mTOR, otherwise known as the “anabolic master switch”...

Alcohol and Testosterone

Tis the season for many things, including social events where you may find yourself partaking in more chances to consume alcoholic beverages. Most of us are aware that alcohol is a common part of social culture and relaxation but when it comes to male hormone health (I’m talking about testosterone!), alcohol could be a hidden saboteur.

It doesn’t matter if it’s a glass of wine in the evenings or putting a few six packs away while watching sports, alcohol disrupts the very processes that support muscle growth, energy, libido and long-term health and longevity.

Let’s get a bit deeper in terms of what is actually happening...

The Role of Hormones in Body Recomposition

I’m sure you are in the same boat as I am - wondering why your body is gaining fat as you get older. I mean, you eat “well” and exercise “enough”, right?

What gives?

As you near the fourth decade of life and beyond, you start to notice subtle changes in your body. Perhaps it is a bit of weight gain but what I normally see with my clients is that stubborn fat around the mid-section seems to become more, let’s say “mature”. And in case you didn’t know, that’s not the area where you want more fat to be stored as it can have a tremendous negative impact on health.

So, what can you do? Glad you asked because we are going to learn about body recomposition. This is where you reduce your body fat while either increase muscle mass or at the very least, maintaining it...
