The goal of the HigherUp Podcast is to share Easily implementable ways to improve your life that do not involve turning life as you know it onto its head. In this episode, I go over what I believe to be the five things you can to do make a fat loss phase effortless. I refer to them as "levers" because they give us leverage over the calorie deficit which at times, can be challenging. If you implement these tools however, you are much more likely to be successful in your fat loss journey and enjoy the process while you do it. The 5 levers are: 1. Protein 2. Food Volume 3. Water 4. Movement 5. Sleep If you got just one valuable thing out of this, please like, comment, and subscribe to the channel. I would sincerely appreciate it.

Welcome to my first Podcast. If you are here from TikTok or Instagram, thank you for supporting me. I do not have a set video format. Some may be podcasting style like this, while others may be more "day in the life" content. However, the mission stays the same. Share easily implementable ways to improve your life. In this video, I discuss my first ever ultramarathon. I also share how to carb load and prepare for an endurance event, as well as what my goals and desired outcomes were versus what really happened. Please give me any and all feedback on this video. I look forward to making more and sharing them with you.
