251. The Rest Eat Move Connection

REST | EAT | MOVE

In Episode 251: The Rest Eat Move Connection, hosts Matt and Chris dive into the magic of balancing rest, eating, and movement in our daily lives. Sure, food often grabs the headlines with endless diet debates, but this episode zooms out to explore the "big loop"—how these three elements work together for real health. Mess up one, and the whole system feels it.

Key takeaways? They break down how cholesterol fuels hormones and how stress—hello, cortisol—can throw things off with the sneaky "cortisol steal." Timing matters too—get the rest-eat-move sequence right, and you’re golden, especially if hormones or meds are in the mix. Breathing gets a shoutout as a simple game-changer for recovery and focus, while stillness? It’s your new superpower—think lunch without scrolling.

This week’s challenge: savor your lunch break. Ditch the desk, drop the phone, and just be. Share your thoughts with us at [email protected]—there might even be a surprise for some of you. Catch the full episode for a fresh take on feeling your best!
