Framework
The Consistency Regime
Higgins's health protocol, and a decent operating philosophy.
How it works
- 1Loose keto, minimal processed food, mostly meat and vegetables.
- 2Gym three or four times a week, and finding one is the first task in any new city.
- 3Creatine, cold plunges, cryotherapy, and Eight Sleep.
- 4He and Kalanovska cycled between obsessive tracking and total neglect for years before settling here.
- 5The insight: pick the regime you can hold for years, because results only show up on that timescale.
- 6They also killed the fly-to-every-meeting habit, choosing to take the Zoom at full capacity over showing up as a zombie.
