How an athlete should eat (an actionable checklist)


Listen Later

Dr. Zach Guiser addresses the overwhelming "noise" of modern nutrition advice by introducing a structured six-level checklist designed to help athletes build near-automatic competency in their fueling habits.

The progression begins with foundational habits like meal frequency, protein intake, and hydration before advancing to more technical strategies such as nutrient timing, AI tracking, and precision weighing.

Guiser encourages athletes to be proactive by managing their pantry environment and meal planning, while ultimately maintaining that an athlete's worth is independent of their performance on the field or in the kitchen
