The Psychology of Strict Keto - KetoCon 2022

Last week, I had the pleasure of attending and speaking at Keto Con. Rather than talking about
macros, calories, and other nutrition-related things, I took a different approach: mindset. If
you’ve listened to my podcasts before, you know how much I value mindset in nutrition and
fitness and life overall. I thoroughly enjoyed my time at Keto Con and having the opportunity to
present. I hope you enjoy this episode!
What you’ll hear:
● My background and beginnings in bodybuilding and fitness (2:39)
● Foundations of keto, basic information, and our need for clarity (5:52)
● The pushback I receive when I talk about strict keto (9:13)
● My seven-phase protocol (14:34)
● The importance of reverse dieting (20:29)
● Balance is bullshit (23:01)
● Tensegrity (24:07)
● Being your own hero (27:42)
● Look in the mirror, figure out who you are, and what you’re passionate about (28:28)
● Don’t let the world beat your passion out of you (29:17)
● Female clients, hormones, and macros (30:29)
● Electrolytes (31:47)
● What I would say to someone who is afraid of the unknown (34:10)
● How I help people move past the fear of reverse dieting (36:15)
● When you know it’s time to stop reverse dieting (37:27)
● Advice I’d give to someone entering a prep when they have a significant other (38:38)

[@emjayemjayhawk]

Robert, you are as motivational as hell. I have one of your quotes in my home gym: " What is possible? What is the human body truly capable of? Why don't you commit your life to finding that answer rather than looking for shortcuts or excuses..."

[@Ketosavage]

Love that so much!

[@Joy80JJ]

Robert you explain so easy to understand...so enjoyed this. You make my life so easy concerning food....needed this today.

after@30:00 on Q&A Always do what scares you! Most people don't consider their health fears and scares they have had or currently have. Just trust and go forward in all things. Don't be on the fence!

[@amandafuller7206]

Just watched this video. Loved it . Funny and informative .I’ve gone onto your website and worked out my macros as I want to lose some body fat . I’ve been more high fat carnivore but high protein and I feel maybe I need to reduce slightly . High fat not an issue . Hopefully I’ll get results . I’ve been eating above maintenance for about five months now and while I’ve only fluctuated a couple of pounds it’s more the fat I’m wanting to reduce . Only recently found your channel but it’s very entertaining

[@Ketosavage]

Thats awesome! I hope you find the success you are looking for! Never be afraid to reach out!
