In this episode, Dan kicks off his Hyrox training at Manhattan’s East River track with Hunter McIntyre working through a speed session.
Post-workout, he shares his nutrition game plan, discussing macros, protein, nutrient absorption, and fiber's role in recovery. Later, Dan heads to the Drew Barrymore Show to discuss his favorite time of year-the New York City Marathon. As City Harvest’s team captain, he highlights the charity’s impactful work and involvement in leading their team during the marathon. The episode wraps up with Dan traveling to LA for an exciting project with Centr, where he’s prepping for the release of their RUNR & RUNR-S treadmills.

Love the nutrition break down in this episode. Hope to see more of that! Great episode! Thanks 💪

[@danchurchillcooks]

Cheers mate, I'm pumped to bring more of that into the future episodes.

Quality is so good🔥

You are a legend mate. The team work really hard. Thank you

It's so good! Pumped to see it in your kitchen mate

What is the background music for the hyrox running part? Very good choice

Can you make a video of your journey to getting strong? I have been following your cookbooks since the beginning and only in NYC did you begin to get strong imo

[@danchurchillcooks]

I can mate... this series is a good representation. it is the first time i have dialed in lower reps and higher resistance for a decent amount of time. so i am seeing the progression, but i can

[@blairbridger7044]

Hey Dan. I have a question about nutrition and time restricted eating. I use the Centr app everyday for my workouts and meal ideas and I also aim to only eat between 7:00 AM to 7:00 PM. In this episode you mentioned that it's important to eat after a workout, but the only time I can workout is in in the evenings after 7:00 PM, so outside of my eating window. How much of impact can this have on my health and fitness? I am not training for anything in particular, I just exercise to stay healthy and fit. Thanks, and I love your new cook book...!

[@danchurchillcooks]

Gday mate!!! So this is super common, essentially you are weighing up the need to support the workout, whilst also taking into account not eating too close to bed and what you can actually eat after a workout. I would say it can depend on the type of workout you are doing... if it is majority cardio, you can somewhat get a way with it, however there are certain needs you should still look into there. If you are doing more of a strength workout that is where you need to be more on your game. Statistically we have seen there are still sufficient amino acids in your system within 2 hours of a workout if you are eating before the workout. So if you eat and then do the workout, there is less of an importance on eating, but if you are not eating, doing the workout and not eating and going to bed, it can be detrimental as you have no nutritional value in your system to support the needs of your body to repair and improve. So my solution would be if you are in the latter category and do not like something too hectic after a workout then just do a shake before bed, but do not have it being too dense. it is more about having a little carbohydrate (30-40g) and protein (30g) and minimizing that fat intake. let me know if that helps mate!

Great material! I've been stalking you for a few months and also recorded my first Hybrid Athlete training vlog.

[@danchurchillcooks]

That's awesome! Hahaha thanks mate. I’ll head over and have a look!

[@traceintoronto]

I am a plant-based hybrid athlete with running, boxing, strength, and some plates. It is hard to find an accurate breakdown for macros since, most of the time, carbs are higher. Thanks Dan!

[@danchurchillcooks]

I got you Trace. Let me know if you need something else on this. Naturally everyone is different

[@highfades2594]

do you think washing your rice is overrated (unnecessary)? great video, looking forward to getting the book.

[@danchurchillcooks]

I don’t mate. I removes unneeded starch and allows for a fluffier light rice texture. Do you do it?

[@highfades2594]

@@danchurchillcooks I just soak it a few times in a bowl, but in that video it looked like you went bag to pot so was wondering.

[@danchurchillcooks]

So I soaked it… then rinsed three times… or essentially until the water runs relatively clear

The sheriff pacing, impressive what a diesel engine considering his weight and size! How can he move this fast over 5 or 10k.

Yeah mate, considering his size, his speed is ridiculous

Did Dan move apartments? New kitchen looks so different.

[@danchurchillcooks]

give me 6 months.. it will look even more different!

[@kurthanson7522]

love it but just be careful with the fast & loose nutritional bro science. 1.) the enduring myth of 30 grams of protein 2.) fat does slow down digestion which ironically actually increases nutrient absorption. 3.) insoluble fibre (oats) speeds up digestion which actually decreases nutrient absorption. 4.) peanuts promote testosterone release is complete nonsense.
