The Dr. Joey Munoz Show

Most people focus so much on what they eat that they completely overlook when they eat—and that might be the reason they’re stuck. In this episode, I break down the science of nutrient timing and why it can make a huge difference when it comes to fat loss, hunger regulation, and long-term consistency. We’re not just talking about calories—we’re talking about habits. You’ll learn why eating a big breakfast (yes, really), sticking to consistent meal times, and avoiding late-night snacking might be the simplest, most effective changes you can make to feel better and see better results. If you’ve ever struggled with cravings, overeating at night, or feeling like fat loss is harder than it should be, this episode will give you practical strategies you can actually use. Tune in now—you might be surprised by how much timing matters.

What does it really take to transform your fitness and lifestyle when you’re balancing a demanding career, a family, and everything else life throws at you? In this episode, I sit down with AJ Gracely to dive into his journey of building serious strength, gaining muscle, improving his nutrition, and reshaping his habits—all while working 50+ hours a week and being a father of three.

AJ’s story is packed with powerful lessons on self-awareness, structure, and building a lifestyle that actually supports your goals long term. If you’ve ever felt like you're doing all the “right” things but still not seeing the results you want, this one’s for you.

Ever feel like your past is holding you back? Like no matter how much you want to change, you’re stuck repeating the same patterns? In this episode, I’m sharing parts of my story I rarely talk about—growing up in a broken home, dealing with abuse, struggling with school, battling self-doubt—and how I somehow ended up with a PhD, a family I love, and a life I never thought was possible. I’m breaking down the three biggest lessons that completely changed my life: why your past doesn’t define your future, how becoming brutally honest with yourself can open doors you didn’t even know existed, and why confidence isn’t something you’re born with—it’s something you build. If you’ve ever wondered if it’s too late to turn things around, or if you’re meant for more but just don’t know how to get there, this episode is for you. Tune in—you might just hear the reminder you’ve been needing.
