Are you working hard but still feeling like your energy tank runs on empty? In this episode of the Quest for Success Podcast, we uncover how your Basic Metabolic Rate (BMR), which are the calories your body burns just to stay alive, plays a major role in your leadership, focus, and success. Dr. Jerry Cunningham breaks down the science of metabolism in a way that's simple, funny, and surprisingly practical. You'll learn how to calculate your own BMR, why muscle is your best long-term investment, and how habits like sleep, nutrition, and movement can literally rewire your energy levels for success. If you've ever wondered why your body resists progress, or why that coworker who "eats everything" never seems to gain a pound then this episode will finally make it all click. Your energy is your leadership currency. Learn how to protect it, grow it, and spend it wisely. Listen now and start fueling your path to success.
