Workout Routine while Fasting

Does you adjust your workout routine, while fasting? If so, how? What would you recommend for people of varying levels of fitness (unfit, moderately fit, very fit)? Electrolyte supplements while fasting? Amount of water intake?

Creatine and Circadian Thermogenesis

This study suggests that creatine could influence thermogenesis. If the goal is to amplify thermogenesis to burn calories or to correct it if eating outside the circadian cycles, what would creatine supplementation look like in regards to dose and frequency? www.science.org/doi/10.1126/science.abl8007

Spermidine Dosing

Based on this paper, would spermidine increase fatty acid oxidation during zone 2 excercise? What would dosing look like to push training mitochondrial function to the max? https://www.science.org/doi/10.1126/science.abj3510

Protocol for improving low Hemoglobin & Iron

Recently, I got a blood test from Inside Tracker. There are two results that i want to improve, but I don't know what is the optimal way to do it: My results: - Hemoglobin: 14.8 g/dL - Iron: 67 ug/dL I have read mixed responses when it comes to Iron supplements, and Hemoglobin I just don't know what would be the correct way to improve. Thank you for your help!

How many carbs do you personally eat on most days?

On a recent AMA episode you talked about roughly how much protein you personally consume daily and where you get it from (7 eggs in the morning, smoothie with nut milk and berries and whey protein, elk jerky, elk for dinner). But I’m curious how many carbs you typically eat? I know you’re no longer on a ketogentic diet, but it seemed on that AMA that perhaps you still eat very low carb. If so, where are you getting all the fat to make up for calories you aren’t getting from carbs? Often when I hear experts discussing their diets - especially low carb ones - the calorie numbers just don’t seem to add up. Curious to know more about your personal diet these days as it relates to carbs. Do you ever eat rice or potatoes or (gasp) bread?
