Claire: "We should all sleep more." Andrew: "Actually... you're not a runner; you're a human who runs." This entire section was so good and unexpected. Masterful mindset coaching right there, and so resonant. Thank you!
I just bought Andrew's book and can't wait to read it. I disagree with him slightly on some topics-- eating only raw foods for example. Bone broth and liver are super foods too. But I agree that what most people think is healthy isn't. Our society shouldn't be in a place where we think how Tom Brady eats is extreme or challenging. I love Andrew's non-limited mindset, which is why I keep listening. I've also always thought most of the things we attribute to aging are an accumulation of bad habits---things in and out--most of which we can control. I appreciate the longer videos too. Thank you.
Loved this! As a married, business owning farmer, I’ve only got 5-6 hours a week to train for my ultras. (Luckily I’ve got an extremely active lifestyle.) As a lifelong insomniac, I only get 4-6 hours of sleep a night. I’ve learned that if I want to accomplish anything in this life, I’ll have to do it tired. That makes all of the ancillary things (discussed in this video) crucial, as well as prioritizing. I tend to rotate priorities by the day. Business, husband, animals, running… they all get star billing a few days a week, and get what’s left on the other days. It’s how I can juggle all the balls. One might get dropped here and there, and I’ll never be the best at anything, but I can try to be pretty darn good at all of them. 😂 Now I need to get better at the nutrition, recovery methods, etc. I’ve got my first 100k coming up, and it’s going to be extremely difficult if I don’t have those ducks in a row!
Wow, I love your comment. You have a really good attitude, and a lateness to it. That makes such a difference. When it comes to nutrition, and insomnia, this can totally be solved, but you’ve got to actually do it. I recommend checking out Gillian Barry’s podcast on YT. I’m going to be doing an immersive nutrition course in April as well. But I like that, you know what your limitations are, you’re still taking massive action. You don’t need to do life tired though. 100% not. You just currently believe that that’s the only option. It’s definitely not the only option. This is a discussion, so DM me on Instagram if you want to get some support with this . I’ll have a lot of content coming out on this, but it won’t be for a couple of months.
I really appreciate how you explain things in a way that make so much sense. This interview was exceptional at hitting just the right level of detail for me. High-level + just the most important details to support the high-level idea = me understanding well!
Just can’t believe I have only discovered your channel … thanks to your brilliant new book. Love it and the channel… great advice, tips and novel ideas that I almost intuitively knew but never put into practice. This is all great timing.. thx 🙏
It comes to sacrifices for eating and sleep or even training. There are things we have to do……work, clean the house, pay the bills, cook, wash clothes, etc…… but do you have to go out to eat with friends, do you have to go to the movies, do you have to do everything??? Comes down to how bad do you want it and how many sacrifices are you will to take for however long.
I'm closing in on 40 and I started doing a 20-30 minute workout with dumbbells 2 or 3 times a week. The improvement in my general fitness was INSANE. I stopped throwing my back and shoulders out (I have kids who want to be picked up all the time LOL), I had way more energy, could haul around more stuff and just in general felt like a badass. I'm sure it also helped me transition back into marathon training without hurting myself. 10/10 recommend. Re: training easy...I piss my husband off so much with how slowly I run on my easy days. But then I can hammer my speed workouts, I rarely get hurt, and my races are consistently good. I ran my best marathon this year at age 39 and BQed. I also was cramming the fruits and veg. Besides my massage gun a Nutribullet was probably the best thing I bought this year because it made getting those foods in much easier.
Can you give me some pointers on sleeping more? I struggle to sleep more than 5-6 hours a night. I take magnesium and don’t have caffeine after 9 or 10 AM. I don’t drink alcohol. I go to bed around the same time each night (10 PM).
I appreciate what you say about nutrition. Especially the bit about how much energy is required for digestion. It is intuitive and makes sense, BUT it's hard to reconcile with the influencers who have made convincing cases for eating animal protein (primarily grass fed red meat, eggs and raw dairy, and fatty fish) . For example, Dr Gabrielle Lyon talks a lot about how aging populations suffer greatly from muscle loss and offers resistance training and 1.2-1.6 grams of protein per kilogram of body weight as a critical way of staving off that loss. I don't know that I've heard her say that you can't achevie that as a whole/raw food dieter, but it's implied by how much she talks about high quality animal meat, eggs, fish, and dairy. Can you go more in depth about how to maintain a significant amount of muscle mass eating a whole food mostly raw food diet? Are there any hybrid athletes (picture someone like Thomas DeLauer) who are good at weightlifting and endurance running who achevied and maintain their phisique and ability by adherence to the diet you advocate? I've got a lot of interest in eating the way you advocate, but I've been so convinced that I need animal protein if I want to become an impressive middle aged (41 years old) hybrid athlete. I'm sincerely hoping that's not the only way.
Why eat animal protein when plants have protein? Most plants have all the essential amino acids that you need, just like animal products, but the plants themselves are healthier. I would recommend eating potatoes. They have all the amino acids you need with about 3 grams of protein per potato. That is plenty of protein and will keep you healthy.
@@CrossCountryRun thank you. What I'm asking for is some de-programming. I've listened to so many videos that explain mechanistically how the amino acid profile (ratios of the amino acids in a protein) is an important consideration for optimal building, and repairing of muscle. I've seen a lot that is quite convincing that high quality animal protein has a more optimal amino-acid and utilization profile than plant protein. Since UA-cam feeds me more of what I most watch, it's not feeding me anything convincing about a plant based diet being able to optimize muscle building. But since I am interested in running and just came across Elite Running this past week, I'm exposed to the idea that plant based diet works great for endurance running. Now I want to know if it cam work equally well for building muscle mass and maintaining it in the latter half of life which I'm approaching. I'd love your recommendations of who to follow that is a great hybrid athlete and adherent of plant based eating. I'd also love your recommendations of UA-camrs who dive into the mechanisms of muscle protein synthesis on a plant based diet.
Hey, thanks for the mindful comment. Yes, I will do lots and lots of videos in the coming year on nutrition. It’s very polarizing, but the science is not polarizing, it’s very clear. If you’re looking for examples of people who build a lot of muscle on plant-based diet you could look at Patrik Baboumian who is the winner of worlds, strongest man, competition, and is completely vegan, there are many others as well. Two Olympics ago, the only American to, make the Olympic powerlifting final was a plant-based man as well. All of the biggest animals that walk the land are plant eaters. Like a giraffe, rhinoceros, gorilla, you name it. How did they get so big and build so much muscle? They eat plants.
Nutrition is a spectrum. Whole grains compared with what? We can’t necessarily say something is healthy in isolation because it’s like compared with what? Everything you eat is an opportunity to eat something else. In general for most people, eating whole grains, would be a improvement. But, we’re also dealing with glyphosate, gluten, cooked food, dehydrated, food, packaged food, and for those reasons they should not make up the majority, or even a large portion of an ideal diet. I eat very little Walgreens, choosing fruit and vegetables, as nearly all of my calories. so don’t fear, eating whole grains, there are a lot of benefits, but I would need to know where your diet is starting to be able to give you more feedback
@@runelitecoachI eat lots of fruits and veggies and some meat. I only eat bread I bake myself using whole grains and sourdough. I went vegan for a month and my iron tanked so it doesn’t seem to work well for my body. I still consider myself “plant based” since I eat more plants than anything else…. But secondly is bread. I do eat a lot of my bread and also oats.

Andrew great video. I highly recommend his book.
love this channel, greetings from germany
Hallo! From the USA. Thank you
What a great talk! Thanks.
Great video Andrew. I highly recommended his book.
Glad you enjoyed it. Please leave a review on Amazon
You're probably the GOAT running UA-camr.
Bahh:) thank you 🐐
Great content. Motivational. Thank you!
My pleasure!
Amazing content, and enjoying your book 👍
Thank you :) please consider leaving a review on Amazon since you’ve enjoyed it.
Can you give me some pointers on sleeping more? I struggle to sleep more than 5-6 hours a night. I take magnesium and don’t have caffeine after 9 or 10 AM. I don’t drink alcohol. I go to bed around the same time each night (10 PM).
Sleep mask, ear plugs, glycine 3 grams, cold room (60-68deg), no screens an hour before bed
on the recovery, would you recommend using red light therapy on the body?

@@runelitecoach thank you! Looking forward to more great content on running and nutrition.
Your voice sounds different from your Plated runner podcast😊
New man. Reinvented in many ways. Maybe it comes through my voice. - or maybe the audio was edited in her software. Doubt it though
What are your thoughts on eating whole grain products?
