Metabolic Health for Business Owners: Why You're Tired, Foggy & Not Getting Results | with David Beard

You're doing everything you were told. Eating less, moving more, trying to sleep better. And you still feel exhausted, foggy, and stuck. In this episode of In The Trenches, Hanif Ibrahim sits down with David Beard — Accredited Exercise Physiologist with over four decades of experience in metabolic health — for a conversation that challenges the fitness advice most of us grew up with. David explains why the conventional approach fails so many people, and introduces a smarter, more biologically accurate way to think about your energy, your health, and your long-term performance. What David covers: - How the body actually produces and uses energy — and why most people misunderstand it - Why modern food environments are working against your physiology - The surprising reasons why eating less and moving more often backfires - Why willpower is rarely the real problem — and what is - What metabolic health actually means and how to assess it honestly - Practical, sustainable shifts business owners can make for better energy and clarity - The connection between metabolic health and cognitive performance If you run a business, your physical health is a business asset. This episode treats it like one.
