  • The Perfect Morning Routine in Any Time Zone

    A morning routine doesn't need to take the whole morning, a 5am alarm, an ice bath, or a two-hour journaling session.

    In this episode, I share the 6 habits I use myself and with the nomads I coach.

    Take these as inspirations for your own day. Maybe you'll take 1-2, maybe you'll take all 6. The best method is to try and experiment with what works best for you.

  • Alcohol on the Road: How to Drink and Still Hit Your Goals

    Drinks are one of the easiest ways to meet people when you travel, and they can have a big impact on your fitness goals. In this episode, I break down what alcohol does inside your body, from how your liver processes it to why it's called the secret fourth macronutrient.

    We talk about why fat burning slows down while you drink, why late-night decisions get harder, and how alcohol affects your sleep, hydration, and muscle recovery. Then I share five action items to help you enjoy the social side of travel and still make progress.

  • The Nervous System Trick That Builds New Habits

    Your nervous system is trying to keep you safe and comfortable. But learning a new habit requires you to constantly leave your comfort zone. In this episode, I break down the Yerkes-Dodson law and how it explains why some habits stick, and why you may have given up on other habits. You'll learn what a 1908 study on mice and electric shocks reveals about learning under stress, why the sweet spot for building a new habit is between boredom and anxiety, and how I use this with my coaching clients to help them learn new habits that they will use for the rest of their life.

  • Macros 101

    Protein, carbs, and fat each play a different role in how your body performs and recovers, but the internet over-complicates things. Riley breaks down the basics of each macro, what happens when you're not getting enough of one, how much you should be eating, and how to think about the balance between them without overcomplicating it.
