Listener Questions Part 1

Listener Questions Part 1

Author: Pete Jacobs April 13, 2020 Duration: 42:05
We collaborated with MODEX to ask our followers on instagram what questions they had, in exchange for a free bottle of MODEX! We had a great response, and had to answer the questions over two podcast episodes.

Topics we covered.

Visualisation, cooking meat tender, cardio/exercise at home, healthy snacks at home, what goal for a session - heart rate/power/RPE, moderating training when races are far off, older athletes nutrition focus, riding faster without hurting immune system, pre and post exercise nutrition, and is whey protein a good recovery meal.

Thanks again to Modex. I’ve been using @modexnatural for months, & training the best I’ve trained in years. Very happy to announce we are working together in 2020.
.

Reducing free radicals & increasing nitric oxide are two major factors for better energy production via increased oxygen use in mitochondria. Modex targets these pathways.

Sure, I’ve changed lots of things that have helped get me back, not simply added Modex, but all the things I’ve changed are focused on improving energy production in one way or another, as is Modex.

Daily routines of , electrolytes, deep , ,& @modexnatural, are a few things I’m prioritising, & I’m feeling better than ever.

Finding a sustainable path to better health often feels like navigating a maze of conflicting advice. Live Your Own Fit | LYF Performance cuts through that noise with grounded conversations led by Pete Jacobs, a World Ironman Triathlon Champion, and his wife Jaimielle. This isn't just about extreme athleticism; it's about the practical, balanced choices that build a resilient life. You'll hear discussions that connect the dots between nutrition, daily movement, and the mental frameworks needed to stick with it. Pete naturally draws from his own journey to the pinnacle of endurance sports, not to prescribe a champion's regimen, but to share the broader lessons on mindset and perseverance that apply to anyone. The podcast operates on the principle that true fitness is deeply personal-it's the energy to keep up with your kids, the clarity to focus at work, and the vitality to enjoy your days. Each episode offers a blend of personal anecdotes, actionable lifestyle tips, and thoughtful dialogue aimed at helping you define what performance means in your own life. Tune in for a refreshingly honest take on building health from the ground up, where the goal is lasting well-being, not just a temporary fix.
