Why do we have clear & compelling goals but fail to reach them? How can we want to change so desperately yet make choices that keep us from that change? Because we keep focusing on the habits we want instead of building the skill of consistency that allows us to achieve them. Consistency is a skill. It's a superpower. It isn't one-size-fits all. It unlocks any door and makes every goal achievable. A more effective, realistic approach starts here.","last_synced_at":"2026-06-14T06:18:28.679940+00:00","page_url":"https://stenobird.com/podcast/consistent-by-primal-potential-172811"},"episode":{"title":"1397: I Changed My Mind on This Supplement (And Will Now Take it For Life)","slug":"1397-i-changed-my-mind-on-this-supplement-and-will-now-take-it-for-life","published_at":"2026-03-21T07:00:00+00:00","page_url":"https://stenobird.com/podcast/consistent-by-primal-potential-172811/1397-i-changed-my-mind-on-this-supplement-and-will-now-take-it-for-life","show_page_url":"https://stenobird.com/podcast/consistent-by-primal-potential-172811","url":"https://primalpotential.libsyn.com/1397-i-changed-my-mind-on-this-supplement-and-will-now-take-it-for-life","audio_url":"https://pdcn.co/e/dts.podtrac.com/redirect.mp3/pscrb.fm/rss/p/traffic.libsyn.com/secure/primalpotential/Creatine_episode.mp3?dest-id=238272","summary":"DEFENSE Foundations Scholarship Application Applications are open now for the DEFENSE Foundations scholarship .

Submit your application now . Episode Summary In this episode, I'm sharing why I changed my mind about creatine . For years, I didn't supplement with it.

But my perspective has changed as I've gotten older and become even more focused on building and preserving muscle for life . This episode is not about hype. It's about goals. I want muscle to be a priority for the rest of my life because muscle is not just about appearance. It is a metabolic asset, a longevity asset, a functional asset, and a resilience asset . And when I revisited the human data on creatine through that lens, I changed my mind. In this episode, I break down: why muscle matters so much for blood sugar, metabolism, resilience, and aging why creatine is one of the most researched supplements in sports nutrition what the human studies show about creatine and greater gains in strength and lean mass when combined with resistance training why that same edge matters even more as we age what the research suggests about creatine and the brain, especially under stress and sleep deprivation the truth about water retention and why intramuscular water is very different from feeling bloated or puffy common reasons some people experience GI discomfort why I prefer CreaPure creatine monohydrate from a purity and quality standpoint practical dosing, safety, and what to know about labs and creatinine A Few Key Takeaways Creatine doesn…","meta_description":"DEFENSE Foundations Scholarship Application Applications are open now for the DEFENSE Foundations scholarship .
