If you’re working 60+ hours, raising kids, running on caffeine, and wondering why your energy, metabolism, and strength feel gone… this episode is for you.

You’ll learn: • Why dieting harder isn’t fixing your fatigue • How muscle controls your metabolism and energy • Why most adults are under-eating protein • How stress shuts down your body’s natural creatine production • Why creatine supports both physical and mental energy • What’s actually happening at the cellular level when energy drops This isn’t extreme fitness.
