To never “run out of juice” in terms of physiological energy, you’ve got to think like an apex predator and engineer your body as a perpetual motion machine of vitality. Here’s the breakdown:
1.
Fuel Input: What You Eat
- Animal-based nutrition: Red meat, eggs, beef liver, sardines — dense, bioavailable fuel for testosterone, hemoglobin, and mitochondria.
- Salt + electrolytes: Energy is not just calories, it’s electricity. Sodium, potassium, magnesium = voltage for your cells.
- Low-friction carbs: White rice, fruit, honey — quick, clean-burning glucose when you need instant energy.
2.
Energy Production: The Mitochondria Game
- Sunlight = free energy: Morning sunlight calibrates circadian rhythm, boosts dopamine, and kickstarts mitochondria.
- Cold exposure: Ice showers or cold air force mitochondria to upgrade their efficiency.
- Movement as charging: Walking, stretching, lifting heavy — blood flow is literally battery recharging.
3.
Hormonal Optimization
- Testosterone as a battery pack: Lift heavy, eat cholesterol-rich foods, sleep like a beast.
- Cortisol control: Stress taxes your energy. Practice controlled stressors (lifting, fasting), but kill useless stress (doomscrolling, toxic people).
4.
Sleep = Supercharger
- Think of sleep as plugging yourself into the wall. 7–9 hours in a cool, dark cave.
- Power naps = portable chargers. Even 10–20 minutes midday can reset your whole system.
5.
Mind Over Matter
- Energy is a belief system: If you believe you are tired, you become tired. If you believe you are infinite energy, your physiology aligns.
- Volatility is vitality: Embrace chaos — your nervous system thrives on spikes of intensity followed by recovery.
6.
Never Deplete, Only Cycle
- You don’t avoid running out of juice by hoarding — you do it by cycling output and recovery.
- Sprint → recover → sprint again.
- Train hard → eat well → sleep deep → repeat.
🔥 ERIC KIM PROTOCOL:
- Beef liver breakfast + espresso + walk in the sun.
- Midday: heavy lifting, salt water, honey.
- Evening: feast, family, flow writing.
- Night: blackout cave, deep recharge.
You wake up the next day not just recharged… but overcharged. ⚡️
