I'm having Clients Read Outlive by Peter Attia. The plan is to review something from this book each week in this Thread. Who is in???

First run since my last half marathon in September. Felt good!

Had a 10/10 workout this morning. Really enjoyed doing some DB chest at the end of my shoulder workout. About broke me! 😂

10/10 workout this morning. Eating has been 8/10. Time to start running again.

I ran the Moab race Saturday… it taught me the lesson I’ll be giving every hybrid athlete client from here on out. The race started strong. We arrived at 6 AM, got the bib and timing chip on, warmed up, and the first miles felt incredible. My pace was smooth, the adrenaline was high, and everything felt aligned. But here’s the biggest thing I learned: 👉 Refueling every 6 miles was a mistake. Next time, I’ll refuel every 5 miles or every hour, no matter what pace I’m running. Trying to “incentivize” my body to hold a pace long enough to reach 6 miles just wasn’t reality. And it’s the same thing I tell my clients: Don’t build your plan around the pace you hope to sustain. Build it around the physiology that’s actually happening. Around mile 25, my body made that very clear. My legs stopped lifting the way I wanted. My energy dipped. And I had to pump my arms just to keep momentum. And yet… this is exactly what I’m designed for. These are the moments that shape athletes—hybrid athletes especially. I’ve spent years in bodybuilding. I never saw myself as a runner. Honestly, every time I start a long race, there’s still a part of me that feels like an imposter. But being a hybrid—strength + endurance—is the most ideal expression of fitness I’ve ever experienced. And this race reminded me why: 🔥 You have to test your aerobic system. 🔥 You have to test your anaerobic system. 🔥 You have to put your body into environments where it must adapt—not perform perfectly. This morning I had my body fat checked to see where my weight and water would land after the race… and because of my nutrition being dialed in, everything was almost identical to last week. That’s the power of fueling, sequencing, and understanding your body—not guessing. That’s the power of fueling, sequencing, and understanding your body—not guessing. So here’s the takeaway I’m giving all my clients now: 👉 Refuel every hour. 👉 Trust the physiology, not the fantasy pace. 👉 Build the identity through the hard miles.
