Description
Two questions I get a lot: 1. What do you do to look so fit? 2. I work out much more than you do and don’t look like you. How’s that possible? In this episode, I’ll answer those two questions, and my answers might surprise you. Welcome to another episode of the Primal Shift podcast, where I share how to train less but more effectively, to get leaner and stronger, and stay that way for life. I share my personal fitness journey that evolved from an athletic track and field background, through a five-year workout hiatus, to my present-day regimen. You'll learn how I've been able to achieve and maintain my physique with workouts twice a week, and how factors like post-workout protein to fat ratio, the role of ketosis in shedding body fat, micronutrient density in muscle building and recovery, and the impact of sleep on performance play crucial roles. In this episode, I discuss: 01:12: - How my workout routine has changed since my early days as a professional track and field athlete 08:25 - What I do to maintain my physique for longevity 10:42 - Diet for optimal performance 12:29 - Leveraging ketosis to shed body fat 13:34 - The importance of micronutrient intake 12:52 -The importance of sleep 15:20 - Why recovery is so important 16:45 - Key takeaways Learn more from Michael Kummer: Use code “primalshift” to save 15% on your order at https://shop.michaelkummer.com/ Website: https://michaelkummer.com/ Instagram: @mkummer82
