When I was in medical school, I could study for 10 hours a day, every day, for months on end without breaking a sweat. When I try to do that now, I get to four days (maybe) and then have to catch my breath on the fifth. This got me thinking, what's so different now compared to back then?
It wasn't until I started tracking my blood glucose that I realized what 25-year old Kevin's secret was. Being productive for long periods of time requires more than just motivation, drive, and effort - a big part of it comes down to your body's chemistry and physiology.
There were a lot of things I didn't realize I was doing well during medical school that I don't do now, so it's time to turn back the clock and learn a thing or two from my 25-year old self.

“There’s other ways to destreza in a relationship” 😂
So I'm not the only one who caught that😂
Lol 😂
Your tips are always so helpful as a pre med student trying to be more productive is my top priority so thank you ☺️🙏🏽
During the final exams in my med school years , I found out that if I eat small amout of meals at intervals , it made me more effective and attentive at studying than having a large amount at one time altogether, which, made me more lethargic and blunt afterwards
Loved how you explained everything! It's awesome when you hear some explanations that really make sense because they are backed up by science, and you can understand the reasons why things happen in a certain way. Instead of yet another plain motivational speech by every other influencer. Thank you so much, you are an inspiration!
I love how honest you were here. Do tired of people just blaming their age for things instead of being aware of how often times when we were younger we were way more active and at times handled stress better. Awesome video!
Nice video. Would like to comment though that post-meal sleepiness has several potential causes and reactive hypoglycemia is actually probably one of the more uncommon ones, especially in healthy individuals. I think the more common cause is parasympathetic system activation (i.e. to digest meal in GI tract) and insulin secretion-->absorption of tryptophan -->serotonin-->melatonin, causing sleepiness. But certainly agree that post-meal activity blunts the glucose, insulin, and lipid spikes and has been shown in several RCTs. Postprandial somnolence or fatigue is a term you can look up if you want to learn more.
Hi Dr. Jubbal! Another video idea for you..."Why I didn't: Cardio-thoracic Surgery"!
I'm interested in Cardio-thoracic but would love to see why you didn't choose it!
CT surg? Do you hate yourself? 😅
@@user-jq4im6rw5p I do actually
All I learned was that in a relationship, there are other ways to distress
1:05 bruh hip thrusting 4 plates is still impressive doesnt matter if u arent swole ur hella strong 👍
You are so inspiring, I got 99th percentile for the entrance exam of my medical university, but now I waste a lot of time and lack a clear goal. I hyped myself up so much in order to pass this exam and yes I fucking did it, but what now. To motivate myself I convinced myself that this exam is literally do or die.
same
I have that mentality
having to pay back my 6 figure loan now motivates me to graduate ..or else end up broke and on the streets lol
Maybe, tell yourself that whether you learn and retain information is do or die for others- your patients.
@@bababooie5022 In Europe it's 0... like literally, it's state funded.
"If your in a relationship there are other ways to destress" Yessir there is
Mate, would you give us some tips on how to build up cognitive endurance to study for long hours? Awesome videos! Keep up the great work! CHEERS!
I second the sleep, taking breaks, and switching up tasks once you complete something if you're starting to feel drained. When studying for boards I would also take a "stressy depressy walk" with my friends where we would force ourselves to go outside and walk for about ten minutes and just talk out the stress that was building up throughout the day. Studying silently with friends as body doubles also helps you stay focused but limit to three extra people max
Hello Kevin as usual this is a great information. Can you make a video on diet which are student friendly. I mean those which are cheaper, faster to make and eat and also healthier. This helps massively to many students including myself.
Thank you
Grass fed ground beef, with a drink. For breakfast, eggs and bacon. Easy to cook, not a lot of carbs so it won’t put you to sleep. Easy on the wallet as well. It’ll keep you really healthy. Your welcome.
DR. THANK YOUUUU SOOO SOOO MUCH I NEEDED THIS. 🧡🧡🧡🧡🧡
You are awesome, thank you!
Thanks for making this video :)
The editing on this is hilarious 😆
1:11 HAHAH too funny, you're swole bro
I didn't find didactic to be as difficult as I thought it would be. I studied a lot but still put like 100+ hours on cyberpunk and another 100+ hours on Genshin. I had a lot more free time than I thought I would. In clerkships I finished KOTOR 1 and 2, tales of arise, and all 3 mass effect games. Clerkships was actually pretty chill for like half of them where I didn't have to study for shelf exams as I wasn't on a core rotation and I got super lucky with really chill attendings that didn't try to kill me and spent most of their time driving their residents. Even this one attending people were warning me about turned out to be pretty cool. I kind of miss it compared to how much I am working now (except for gen surg clerkship 80-90h weeks lol)
Can you make a video on your schedule for your clinical rotations
Great video! Enjoyed the tips. Thank you!
Love these edits 😂
Spike city crews signing in
Can you make a video on how to make the the Breakfast Smoothie?
Super helpful!
Hey Dr. Why did you think working out didn’t get you the results you want? I’m currently in pre-med and I’m thinking of integrating a workout into my daily schedule but since you mentioned that it didn’t work I’m having second thoughts haha 😆
Im not a medical doctor or anything so im not the most qualified to say this but. Your body definitely needs to be active every day, I would recommend getting in your excersise daily if you can.
Perhaps because, as he stated, he scarfed down food. If he's doing that then he likely isn't eating worth a damn at all. Or, he wasn't at that time. You can lift all you want, if you're eating trash meals, and getting terrible rest, you are not going to grow very much. Sure, you'll look DIFFERENT in the mirror and get somewhat stronger but you will not be "swole" by any means.
Also it's possible that his lifting routine was terrible. He could have been lifting too often, not often enough or lifting too light or too heavy. I've known countless people who have hit the gym for 5-8 years and never hit their "sweet" spot until year 9 or 10. On the other hand i've known people who found their sweet spot after 6 months. It's a difficult balance and its something that only you will know when you find it.
Take it from someone who has been in the gym since 1991 and gained 50-60lbs and lost 50-60lbs multiple times.
Lol the editing on the swole part 😂
"existensial crisis: your family is getting older" Can you do a video on that?
Hi Dr. Jubbal what paper were you referencing about the caffeine and glucose metabolism so I can learn more
How did you keep your place clean???
I’ve been obsessed with getting a CGM. Why levels over Nutrisense in 2022?
That is the best anatomy book!
Dr Jubbal, do you still need to study 10 hr/day if you were shooting for something less competitive than plastics like anesthesiology or rads?
Generally no
@@kevinjubbalmd phew!
Very insightful
Yo Kev you look like Ryan Pineda
You became much funny😄😄 Happy for That
spike citeyyyyy
Dr. Jubbal cited abstract 2:18 bruh
Is this real??
I can't read 10hrs... I honestly didn't think this was even possible
Tried the Levels link but I'm based outside the US and they want me to use an US based phone number... is their another way to sign up?
Sign up for a TextNow account and you can set a US based area code. I've also heard Google voice can do that too
@@kaitlynkilpatrick36 have you done that? is it free?
@@omgplsno4999 when my mom would take away my phone it's hoe I would text my friends 😂😂 yeah it's free
@@kaitlynkilpatrick36 okay thanks! I'll check it out, but I'll probably get stuck at the part where they want to send me their products and I don't have an US based address haha
Ahaha man getting old I totally relate with this
Haircut looking too clean!

In my opinion it is quite ridiculous to claim that poor food choices is the sole causation for low produtivity. There surely is a correlation between general health and motivation levels, but I think your mentality is dependant on many more factors than just your diet lol. Also you base your argumentation mostly on anecdotal evidence
I really like your videos though, I just disaggree with the simplifications you make in this one
Couldn’t agree more!
Sardine🤮😭
I wear a CGM 24/7 and if your not diabetic don’t waste your money.
that hair game tho!
