Hi guys, it's Tony Robbins. You're listening to Habits & Hustle. Crush it.
Hey friends, you're listening to Fitness Friday on the Habits & Hustle podcast where myself and my friends share quick and very actionable advice for you becoming your healthiest self. So stay tuned and let me know how you leveled up. Before we dive into today's episode, I first want to thank our sponsor, Therasage. Their tri-light panel has become my favorite biohacking thing for healing my body.
It's a portable red light panel that I simply cannot live without. I literally bring it with me everywhere I go. And I personally use their red light therapy to help reduce inflammations in places in my body where, honestly, I have pain. You can use it on a sore back, stomach cramps, shoulder, ankle, red light therapy is my go-to.
Plus, it also has amazing anti-aging benefits, including reducing signs of fine lines and wrinkles on your face, which I also use it for. I personally use Therasage Trilight everywhere and all the time. It's small, it's affordable, it's portable, and it's really effective.

And that's why if I were sitting where you were and you were interviewing me, I would say that it does make a difference about the amount you eat.
Yeah.
Not so much. And what you eat is what I would say. Not necessarily the time you're eating it and all that other stuff that goes with it.
Yeah. Like all of the time you're eating it has like... I think bodybuilders do, bodybuilders do multiple meals.
Right. What I'm saying at the time, like if you don't eat until noon or whatever I'm saying that, I think the more that, that those are also based on your body can't break down food. Like we overeat and therefore we're stuck with all this food in us because we're not, we're not digesting it because we're eating so much of it.
