This year, my #1 focus is energy.
Because without it, I’m screwed.
My business is scaling fast.
I just hired two new team members last week.
To take this thing to the next level, I need to operate like a high-performance machine.
That means no sluggish mornings, no energy crashes, no "just one more coffee" excuses.
So, I cut out alcohol completely this year.
Let’s be real—it’s a scam.
It destroys your energy.
It wrecks your sleep.
It makes you feel like an 80-year-old the next morning, even if you’re in peak shape.
That said—I’ll probably have a few drinks this summer when I’m on a beach in Greece with my girlfriend. I’m not a monk.
But right now?
I’m in full-focus mode. And the benefits of not drinking? Insane.
I wake up feeling fresh every single day.
No brain fog. No “what the hell did I text last night?” regret.
More stable energy—no afternoon crashes, no random mood swings.
Look, I used to abuse alcohol in the past. I know exactly what it does to performance. Cutting it out has been a cheat code for energy.
But removing the bad stuff isn’t enough.
You also have to fuel yourself with the right stuff.
That’s where my energy supplement stack comes in.
The Ultimate Energy Supplement Stack
I’m not here to waste time on gimmicks.
This is the exact stack I take daily to stay sharp, handle stress, and perform at a high level—without relying on 47 cups of coffee.
Magnesium Glycinate
The sleep king. If you wake up at 3 AM questioning your life choices, you probably need this. Magnesium calms the nervous system, improves sleep, and helps with recovery. Most people are deficient, especially high performers. Take it before bed and sleep like a baby. [1]
Vitamin B12 (Methylcobalamin)
If you’re low on B12, expect brain fog, fatigue, and zero motivation to do anything productive. This vitamin is essential for energy production at the cellular level. Caffeine lovers, take note—stimulants deplete B12, which is why you might feel exhausted even after your third espresso. [2]
Vitamin D3 + K2 (High Potency)
If you’re not getting direct sunlight daily, you need this. Vitamin D boosts testosterone, improves mood, and keeps your immune system from turning into a wet paper towel. K2 ensures that calcium goes to your bones (where it belongs) and not your arteries (where it doesn’t). [3]
L-Theanine
The chill pill (but not actually a pill). This smooths out caffeine jitters and prolongs focus. Found in green tea, but supplementing lets you get higher doses for max effect. If caffeine makes you feel like a squirrel on Red Bull, this is your fix. [4]
Creatine Monohydrate
This isn’t just for gym bros. Creatine fuels your brain and improves memory, endurance, and recovery. If you ever forget why you walked into a room, you might need this. Bonus: it helps with sleep deprivation and reduces stress. I take 5g daily (sometimes 10g if I’m training hard). [5]
Ashwagandha (KSM-66)
The stress killer. This adaptogen lowers cortisol, improves sleep, and helps keep testosterone levels optimized. If you’re grinding 12-hour days and feel like you’re about to lose it, this is your new best friend. [6]
Rhodiola Rosea
If stress, fatigue, and burnout had a natural enemy, this would be it. Used by Russian soldiers and astronauts to perform under extreme conditions, Rhodiola fights mental fatigue and keeps you focused for long hours without stimulants. Basically, it’s like a cheat code for endurance. [7]
Alpha-GPC
The brain booster. This increases acetylcholine, the neurotransmitter for learning, memory, and reaction speed. I take it before deep work sessions or tough workouts—it sharpens focus and helps me execute without distractions. Great if you want to feel like Bradley Cooper in Limitless (minus the fictional side effects). [8]
CoQ10 (Ubiquinol)
The mitochondria’s best friend. Every cell in your body relies on CoQ10 to produce energy. Levels decline as you age, which is why some people in their 30s already feel like they’re 60. I take this to keep my endurance high and energy stable throughout the day. [9]
Electrolytes (Sodium, Potassium, Magnesium)
Hydration isn’t just about drinking water. If you’re low on electrolytes, you’ll still feel tired even if you drink a gallon a day. Most people don’t get enough sodium, especially if they’re training hard. I add high-quality electrolytes to my water to stay hydrated, focused, and free from energy crashes.
Why This Stack?
Because energy is everything.
This stack isn’t about short-term caffeine highs followed by crashes.
It’s about building a body and mind that can handle:
Long hours.
High stress.
Deep work.
Intense training.
If you’re serious about energy, it starts with eliminating what drains you—and fueling yourself with what actually works.
Here’s your Game Plan:
Get morning sunlight to kickstart your circadian rhythm.
Hydrate like an athlete (because you are one—business is a sport).
Train hard 3 days per week.
Sleep like your life depends on it (because it does).
Supplement smart, not random.
Your energy is your greatest competitive advantage. Protect it.
Let’s win.
