Our guest, Mike, shares his journey from being a vegan to incorporating animal-based products back into his diet and the impact it had on his body, including a substantial increase in weight and improved semen count. He highlights the value of data tracking, using technology like Whoop and MyFitnessPal, and employing a virtual assistant to streamline the process. Mike talks about transforming everyday tasks into games to make them more enjoyable and less burdensome, reducing the pressure and attachment to outcomes.   Mike's transformation began with the transition from veganism to including animal-based products in his diet. He noticed significant physical changes, such as weight gain and improved semen count. His transition also involved embracing a higher protein and higher-fat diet. Initially, he focused on bodyweight activities, emphasizing exercises like push-ups, planks, pull-ups, and dips, with the goal of achieving 50 push-ups, 10 pull-ups, and a three-minute plank hold in cold conditions. His workouts evolved as different seasons required different approaches.    From Mike's journey, several key takeaways emerge. First, the transformation of habits and health optimization requires intentionality and data tracking. Utilizing wearable devices, nutrition apps, and a virtual assistant can streamline this process. Second, turning daily tasks into games can make them more enjoyable and help reduce pressure and attachment to outcomes.
