Microdosing, Performance & Psychedelic Potential
|
In this episode of the Flex Diet Podcast, I sit down with Dr. James Fadiman and Jordan Gruber to talk all things microdosing—what it is, what it isn’t, and why it’s gaining so much traction in health, performance and even mental clarity. We dig into their new book, Microdosing for Healing, Health, and Enhanced Performance, and cover everything from the history of psychedelics to the latest research and how people are using tiny doses of these compounds to potentially improve cognitive function, mood and physical performance. We also talk about personal experience—what they’ve seen, what they’ve felt, and what they’ve learned along the way. Of course, none of this is medical advice. These substances still live in legal gray zones -currently Federally illegal in the USA - and varies depending on where you are, so proceed with caution and do your homework. If you’re curious about the science and the real-world implications of microdosing, this episode is a must-listen. Let’s get into it.

We dug into how the body switches between carbohydrates and fat as fuel depending on the demands of the activity. High-power efforts rely heavily on carbohydrates because they can generate ATP faster, while lower-intensity work shifts more toward fat metabolism. We also covered why...
In this episode of the Flex Diet Podcast, I sit down with Dr. Ashley Dwyer, a PharmD-turned nutrition and fitness coach, to cover a wide range of topics, with a strong focus on PCOS (polycystic ovarian syndrome), a metabolic condition that affects fertility, cycles, and systemic health. We dig into practical lifestyle strategies for insulin-resistant PCOS, including balanced meals, protein and fiber, blood sugar management, movement, and stress reduction, plus why long-term keto often isn’t a...
Every once in a while something I’ve been preaching in the iron dungeon and to all my M3 online 1-1 clients for years escapes into the wild. Recently Muscle & Fitness featured one of my favorite upper-back tweaks—the heavy face pull—a simple adjustment that lets you load the movement harder without turning your shoulder joints into shredded beef jerky. Kudos to Fitness Newsletter Insider Shane for including me in the full article. Here’s the excerpt from it ‘HEAVY’ FACE PULLS The heavy face...
