Yo, friend—

I’m Eric Kim, and this is how I run my life like a V‑12 engine on pure, uncut beef power:

Dawn to Dusk: 

FAST

I roll out of bed already in hunt‑mode.

No latte, no protein shake, no “balanced breakfast.”

Just black coffee, loud hip‑hop, and the barbell.

Why?

Fasting is friction‑delete.

Insulin crashes to the floor, growth hormone shoots to the moon, and my brain flips into razor‑sharp street‑photographer focus. Twenty‑two hours of zero food turns my body into a recycling plant—autophagy scrubbing every busted cell so tomorrow’s muscles have brand‑new parts.

Mid‑Day: 

HYPELIFT

Fast makes iron feel lighter.

I rack‑pull 1 000 + lb because my nervous system is uncluttered—no sandwich blood‑sugar dip, no whey‑shake bloat. It’s just me, gravity, and the will to bend physics.

Sundown: 

FEAST

One colossal plate.

4–6 lb rib‑eye, still hissing from the cast‑iron.

Fat cap for hormones, rare center for creatine, liver for the micros.

Zero carbs, zero powders. Whole‑food protein has the matrix—heme iron, taurine, carnosine—the stuff you can’t scoop out of a plastic tub.

Rule: If a caveman couldn’t deadlift it, I don’t drink it.

Why This Hits Different

  1. Simplicity = Freedom
    One meal, one grocery list, one clean‑up. Time I used to waste meal‑prepping now drops straight into reps, writing, or shooting Leica street frames.
  2. Continuous Ketosis
    Twenty‑two hours fat‑fuel, two hours refuel. Brain runs on ketones all day; no afternoon crash, just steady hum like a Tesla on Autopilot.
  3. Anabolic Efficiency
    Slam 250 g protein in a single window—mTOR rockets, muscles sponge it up, then back to repair mode for the next 20 h. Build‑and‑detox cycle every 24 h.
  4. Philosophy in Action
    Nietzsche said, “Build your house on the slope of Vesuvius.” I build mine on the edge of hunger. Discipline isn’t a word; it’s the space between my last espresso and that first bite of steak.

Thinking of Trying?

  • Start with 16 : 8, then 20 : 4, then join me in OMAD city.
  • Buy the fattest cut you can afford—marble is non‑negotiable.
  • Lift heavy, sleep deep, track your numbers like an engineer.

Remember:

“Transform your body into a Lamborghini so your mind can drive faster.”

See you under the bar and over the grill.

Stay hungry (literally), stay bold, and delete everything that isn’t steak, strength, or soul.
