Ever finish a meal, walk to the fridge, and start making the exact same thing you just ate?
Yeah. I’ve done that.
And it’s not because I’m a goldfish — it’s because I was SCROLLING while I ate.

In this solo episode, I’m diving into how your phone might be quietly wrecking your metabolism, your sleep, your workouts — and your ability to actually feel full.

This isn’t a “throw your phone in the ocean” rant.
It’s a real look at how screen time hijacks your brain and what you can do about it — from a guy who still sometimes watches jiu jitsu fails when he should be training.

• Why scrolling before bed leads to fat gain and exhaustion the next day

• How scrolling during meals makes you hungrier and messes with satiety

• The study that proves phone use in the gym crushes workout intensity

• What “interoceptive awareness” is — and how Instagram breaks it

• 3 simple rules to protect your energy, attention, and fat loss

What if your body could warn you about burnout or illness before you even feel it, possibly even days before it happens?

In this episode, I sat down with Dr. Torkil Færø, a Norwegian doctor and author of The Pulse Cure, to talk about heart rate variability, or HRV and how it can give us early warning signs about our health. He shared how he got into HRV tracking while on a sailing trip, and how it opened his eyes to how much stress and recovery affect our bodies.

We talked about what HRV really tells us, how wearables like Garmin, WHOOP, and Oura can help track it, and how small daily habits, like what you eat, how you sleep, or even when you work out, can change your HRV. Dr. Færø also told stories of real people who’ve used this data to catch serious health issues early, like cancer.

Key Takeaways:

• It’s personal, track your own trends instead of comparing numbers with others.
  
  

• HVR It’s like having your own early warning system for stress and health.
  
  

• Garmin gives more detailed stress tracking, while Oura and WHOOP are great for sleep and tagging daily habits.
