320: The N=1 Experiment That Can Change Everything


Listen Later

You don't need another diet plan or "perfect" fitness routine — you need curiosity. In this episode, Nate reveals how running N=1 experiments (small, personal tests) can help you finally break out of copy-paste fitness and start getting results that actually fit your body and lifestyle.

You'll learn how to test what works for you without overcomplicating things — whether that's shifting your meal timing, adjusting your workouts, or simply paying attention to how your body feels. By the end, you'll know exactly how to stop guessing and start discovering what helps you feel unstoppable.

In this episode, you'll discover:

  • Why most fitness "plans" fail and how to reframe them as experiments

  • The 3-step framework for testing new habits without tracking everything

  • How to evaluate your results like a scientist, not a judge

  • Real-world examples of N=1 experiments that improve energy, focus, and fat loss

  • Why curiosity, not discipline, is the real secret to consistency
