To improve as an MMA fighter, Kyle Kingsbury turned to meditation and self-reflection, which helped to calm his mind and keep it quiet during fights.

But he quickly realized that these tools were also helping him become a better person.

Fast forward 10 years later and Kyle has moved on from being a professional athlete and works as the Director of Human Optimization at a popular supplement company.

In this podcast episode, we chat about how Kyle still uses those tools to figure out what his next move in life is, why he experiments with nutrition -- including trying the carnivore diet for 17 days and taking part in an elimination challenge, his seasonal approach to carbs, and why he challenges things instead of just accepting them at face value.

Kyle also dives into the life lessons that fighting taught him and why he doesn’t follow some of the traditional dieting advice.
