Doctor Explains: How To Be A Healthy Physician (Nutrition, Training And Basics)

Physicians spend their entire careers managing preventable disease in other people, and a startling number of us are not managing it in ourselves. This episode breaks down the practical system I have used since pre-med to stay healthy through training and now through attending life: how to set calories and macros without turning food into a second job, which supplements are actually worth the money, why intermittent fasting changed my cognitive output at the hospital more than it changed my body, and how to build a training routine you will still be doing in ten years. This is for pre-meds, medical students, residents and attendings at any fitness level, including people who have never set foot in a gym. It covers what nobody teaches you in medical school, the mistakes I made chasing an aesthetic goal the wrong way, and how to scale all of it to the stage of training and the budget you are actually in right now. 0:00 Why Physician Health Gets Neglected 2:23 Why Your Degree No Longer Convinces Patients 4:58 Nutrition Basics: Calories And Macros 11:53 The 80/20 Rule And Why Perfection Backfires 14:58 Supplements And Intermittent Fasting 18:42 Training, Compound Lifts And Progressive Overload 26:04 Making It Work At Every Career Stage Follow Along: 💌 Website/Newsletter: https://www.pathofadoctor.com 🎙YouTube: https://youtu.be/VaYcoo7epNk 🤝 Community - https://www.skool.com/path-of-a-doctor-community-2383/about?ref=5155176e9b914782b3983a512f24b00a 📸 Instagram - https://www.instagram.com/pathofadoctor 🐦 Twitter/X - https://twitter.com/pathofadoctor 🎵 Tiktok - https://www.tiktok.com/@pathofadoctor 👔 LinkedIn- www.linkedin.com/in/path-of-a-doctor-725238191 Personal 💌 Website: ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠https://www.thezeja.com⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ 📸 Instagram - ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠  / thezeja  ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠🐦 Twitter - ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠  / thezeja  ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ 🎵 Tiktok - ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠  / thezeja  ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ 🎙Podcast: ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠https://open.spotify.com/show/3xJGTFWMNcMxzQsN4Be0Aj⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ 📽️ YouTube-https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCfIedEQ6vWfjkcvYLeTXSaw 👔 LinkedIn- https://www.linkedin.com/in/ze-ja-672028285/ 🤝Community: https://www.skool.com/the-second-pursuit-6189 About Me I am a physician (M.D.) practicing a mix of hospitalist medicine, and urgent care.
