Podcasts about athletic performance

What does it really take to become stronger, not just physically, but mentally, relationally, and spiritually? In this episode, we sit down with Liberty University Director of Athletic Performance for Football, Coach Chad Scott, for a conversation that goes far beyond the weight room. Coach Scott shares what he’s seeing inside Liberty Football as a new season approaches, why their word “Standard” has to become more than a slogan, and what separates talented people from those who actually maximize their potential. We unpack the power of discipline, shared suffering, player-led leadership, and why mastering the fundamentals of sleep, nutrition, hydration, and breathing can matter more than chasing the latest performance hack. But the conversation takes a deeply personal turn as Chad opens up about walking alongside his wife, Beth, through her battle with cancer and what that journey has taught him about strength, surrender, faith, and trusting God when the circumstances you desperately want to change are completely outside of your control. Whether you’re an athlete, leader, spouse, parent, or simply trying to become the person God has called you to be, this conversation will challenge you to raise your standard while redefining what it truly means to be strong.

Hey, Brad Kearns here with some thoughts from my morning walk about the foundation of any excellent, well-rounded fitness program for peak performance, vitality, fat loss, and longevity. Did you know half of regular runners get an overuse injury every year, and 25% of regular runners are injured at any given time? In this episode, I explain why the modern endurance running approach is deeply flawed, why walking provides an excellent aerobic conditioning effect with minimal impact load or injury risk, and why it should be the foundation from which you launch your more ambitious fitness activities. I also share why resistance training is the missing link for many people, including Dr. Doug McGuff's “Big Five” workout, and why true sprinting—not long HIIT sessions—is the single best workout ever known to mankind in terms of return on investment for reducing excess body fat, promoting overall functional fitness, and supporting longevity. Research reveals that anaerobic muscle fibers decline at a rate of around 40% per decade without intervention, compared to roughly 10% for the aerobic system. That's why we have a critical obligation for longevity to hone the anaerobic system with brief, explosive maximum efforts. The three fitness laws are simple: move frequently at a slow pace, lift heavy things, and sprint once in a while. That is the winning ticket for true fitness, weight loss, and longevity. TIMESTAMPS: Brad emphasizes the importance of walking as an activity from which to launch your more ambitious fitness activities. [01:51] Steady state cardiovascular exercise and other extreme endurance exercises often create injuries. [03:01] Sprinting is the single best workout known to mankind! It's all about quality, explosiveness, power, lots of rest in between. [08:30] LINKS: Brad Kearns.com BradNutrition.com B.rad Whey Protein Superfuel - The Best Protein on The Planet!

Nitric Oxide Explained: Vascular Health, Exercise Performance, and N1o1 with Dr. Nathan Bryan, international Leader in Molecular Medicine, the first to describe nitrite and nitrate as indispensable nutrients required for optimal cardiovascular health. He details NO as a ubiquitous messenger affecting blood flow, erectile function, cognition, exercise performance, endothelial dysfunction, and aging-related declines in NO production. Bryan explains why PDE5 inhibitors like Viagra prolong cyclic GMP signaling but don't fix NO deficiency, and why beet products often fail due to variable nitrate content and inadequate dosing. He outlines his NO lozenge approach that generates NO gas from sodium nitrite and magnesium ascorbate, plus a fermented beet powder drink (NOBeets), and emphasizes the role of oral bacteria (and harms of antiseptic mouthwash/fluoride) in nitrate conversion. They review published endpoints, including flow-mediated dilation, blood pressure effects, inflammation markers, triglycerides, stem cells, plaque regression, applications to Alzheimer's, glaucoma/microvascular disease, safety/dosing considerations, risks of arginine supplementation, and a dual-chamber topical NO serum developed from wound-healing experience.

The New York Knicks' first NBA championship in 53 years may have been built on many things: Jalen Brunson's brilliance, Mike Brown's steady hand, a suffocating defense and a healthy roster when it mattered most. According to much-maligned team owner James Dolan, it may also have required a little self-denial. Dr. Brian Higgins, from Galway Primary Care joined Sean to discuss.

This week on the Science for Sport podcast, Richard Graves welcomes Matt Parr back to the show for a deeper look at the work that really drives performance in elite sport. Matt is the Head of Athletic Performance at Leicester Tigers, a former professional rugby player, and the founder of High Performance Puzzle. Having worked across both rugby union and rugby league, including Leicester Tigers and Catalan Dragons, Matt brings a rare combination of playing experience, coaching insight, leadership responsibility, and high-performance strategy. In this episode, Richard and Matt explore the “invisible work” that sits behind successful performance environments. Not the gym programme. Not the GPS report. Not the testing data. But the conversations, decisions, relationships, standards, and judgement calls that determine whether the physical work actually lands. They discuss why data needs context, how performance teams can align with coaches under pressure, what good decision-making looks like when information is incomplete, and why trust remains one of the most important currencies in elite sport. For sports science, S&C, medical, coaching, and performance staff working in elite environments, this episode is a valuable reminder that high performance is not built by data alone. It is built through people, relationships, standards, and the ability to make good decisions when the pressure is on. In this episode you will learn Why the work that drives performance often sits outside the formal programme, session plan, or data report How conversations between coaches, medical staff, S&C, sports science, and players provide vital context What good alignment looks like in a high-performance environment How to manage differing opinions between technical and performance departments Why frameworks are essential when emotions and pressure start to influence decision-making How to make better decisions when you do not have the complete picture Why trust between the head coach, medical team, and performance staff is critical How to use data without becoming over-reliant on it Why standards often slip in small ways before they show up in performance outcomes How relationships can make or break the effectiveness of even the best performance systems Why gut feel still matters, provided it is shaped by experience and reflection How elite practitioners can reflect more effectively on their own decisions and behaviours Why discipline is a habit, not just a personal trait What Matt has learned from working across rugby union and rugby league Why the best players want honest feedback when standards start to slip About Matt Parr Matt Parr is Head of Athletic Performance at Leicester Tigers and founder of High Performance Puzzle. Before moving into strength and conditioning, Matt spent around 14 to 15 years as a professional rugby player, representing clubs including Sale Sharks, Saracens, London Irish, and Leicester Tigers. His transition into performance coaching began at Leicester Tigers, where he initially combined a player-coach role with S&C responsibilities before moving fully into the performance department. Matt has since built extensive experience across both rugby union and rugby league. After progressing through the performance setup at Leicester Tigers, he joined Catalan Dragons as Head of Performance, before returning to Leicester as Head of Athletic Performance. Alongside his role in professional rugby, Matt has launched High Performance Puzzle, a consultancy focused on high-performance strategy, systems, leadership, and integration.

Dr. Rosy Boa interviews exercise scientist and belly dance (Raqs Sharqi) teacher Siobhan Camille (MSc in Rehabilitation Science) about applying exercise science to dance and pole. Siobhan shares her path from New Zealand athlete to researcher and strength and conditioning coach, including belly dance injury research, hospital-based rehab work, and her current role with Dutch elite and Olympic sport. They discuss how early research in “fringe” activities often focuses on injury rates before performance optimization, and emphasize that rehab and return-to-sport/pole rely on principles tailored to the individual and their demands. Siobhan critiques common “prehab” trends that underload the body, argues that appropriate joint stress builds resilience, and highlights injury's multifactorial nature. They also cover consistency over optimization, motor learning cues, accessibility in classes, and misconceptions about “perfect posture” and pelvic tilt.Are you a pole nerd interested in trying out online pole classes with Slink Through Strength?

Eccentric Exercise: Better Results with Less Effort. Leyla Muedin, a registered dietitian nutritionist, discusses eccentric exercise and research suggesting it may deliver better results than strenuous workouts that cause muscle damage and delayed onset muscle soreness (DOMS). She explains contraction types—isometric, concentric, and eccentric—highlighting that eccentric contractions involve muscle lengthening during the lowering phase (e.g., lowering a dumbbell, walking downstairs) and can provide greater mechanical loading with lower perceived effort, less fatigue, and broad accessibility across ages and health conditions, though requiring more focus and control. She cites studies including stair-descending in elderly obese women improving cardiovascular function, insulin sensitivity, cholesterol, and strength, and a five-minute home routine (chair squats, wall pushups, chair reclines, heel drops) improving strength, flexibility, mental health, and encouraging continued exercise. She notes athletic benefits and the need for further research.

Hyperbaric Oxygen Therapy (HBOT): Beyond the Bends—Wounds, Stroke Recovery, Radiation Injury, and Performance. Nicole Garrett, founder and COO of Under Pressure Hyperbarics, details hyperbaric oxygen therapy (HBOT). She explains how HBOT treats divers' decompression sickness by recompressing nitrogen bubbles and reducing inflammation, and how therapeutic benefits depend on reaching adequate pressure (commonly around 2.0 atmospheres or more; diver treatment may begin at 2.8). Garrett describes HBOT's history, FDA-approved uses such as diabetic wound healing, radiation injury, and sudden sensorineural hearing loss (often combined with steroids), and off-label use for stroke/TBI recovery, cognitive issues, autoimmune flares, Crohn's disease, athletic recovery, anti-aging research (including telomere findings), and adjunctive cancer care. She contrasts “soft” chambers with higher-pressure medical chambers, discusses treatment courses (often 10–60 sessions), safety and contraindications (ears, pneumothorax, retinal bubble procedures), and practical barriers like cost, insurance coverage, and facility/oxygen regulations.

Urolithin A (MitoPure)--Mitophagy, Muscle Recovery, Immunity, and Skin Health: Dr. Brad Currier, clinical trial manager at Timeline, a Swiss biotech company, details urolithin A (MitoPure), a postbiotic derived from pomegranate precursors that most people cannot produce due to microbiome differences. Currier explains MitoPure's mechanism—stimulating mitophagy to recycle dysfunctional mitochondria—and reviews evidence from multiple clinical trials. He reveals a Sports Medicine study in elite male distance runners showing reduced creatine kinase and lower perceived exertion, suggesting improved recovery, plus trials in middle-aged and older adults showing improvements in strength, six-minute walk test, and VO2 max at 500 mg–1 g doses. They also cover a Nature Aging immune study reporting rejuvenation of stem-like CD8 T cells with improved mitochondrial fatty acid oxidation, ongoing research directions, supplement quality/testing for athletes, and topical urolithin A skincare trials and partnerships, including L'Oréal Lancôme.

Send us Fan MailOn this episode of Plates and Pancakes, we sit down with Jim Kramer, former Director of Athletic Performance at North Dakota State University, to break down a career built on consistency, culture, and championship-level development.Over 22 years at NDSU, Kramer helped power 13 conference titles, 10 FCS National Championships, and the development of 16 NFL Draft picks. But his impact goes far beyond the numbers. He dives into how great programs are sustained—through hiring from within, building real relationships, and creating a player-led culture rooted in accountability and pride.Kramer shares his approach to Olympic lifting, emphasizing the importance of mastering the pull and developing explosive hip and leg power before worrying about the catch. He explains why coaching on the floor—not just writing programs—is the true separator, and how passion and energy from a coach directly influence athlete performance.The conversation also covers in-season weight management, nutrition strategies, and how NDSU built a system that develops not just better athletes, but better people. From his roots growing up on a dairy farm to leading one of the most dominant programs in college football, Kramer's perspective is grounded in work ethic, simplicity, and doing the little things right.Now in retirement, he reflects on evolving training methods, visiting other programs, and continuing to learn the craft.This is a deep dive into what it really takes to build and sustain excellence in strength and conditioning.https://youtube.com/@platesandpancakes4593https://instagram.com/voodoo4power?igshid=YmMyMTA2M2Y=https://voodoo4ranch.com/To possibly be a guest or support the show email Voodoo4ranch@gmail.comhttps://www.paypal.com/paypalme/voodoo4ranch

Pelvic floor health is an often overlooked, but critically important aspect of female athlete health and performance. Despite increasing awareness, many athletes, coaches, and practitioners remain unaware of how common pelvic floor dysfunction is among female athletes and how significantly it can impact both performance and quality of life.In this episode of Clinically Pressed, Andrew Jagim sits down with Dr. Lisa VanWiel (University of Wisconsin–La Crosse) to discuss pelvic floor health in female athletes, with a particular focus on urinary incontinence, one of the most common symptoms of pelvic floor dysfunction. Research suggests that 60–70% of female athletes experience some degree of urinary incontinence, particularly in sports that involve running, jumping, and high-impact movements. Despite its high prevalence, many athletes are reluctant to discuss these issues or may assume it is simply a normal consequence of sport participation.Dr. VanWiel helps break down why pelvic floor health matters for athletes, how dysfunction can influence performance and injury risk, and what athletes and practitioners should be aware of when identifying potential issues.Topics discussed in this episode include:• The role of the pelvic floor in athletic performance and core stability• Why urinary incontinence is so prevalent in female athletes (60–70%)• Common warning signs and symptoms of pelvic floor dysfunction athletes and coaches should recognize• How pelvic floor dysfunction can impact performance, comfort, and confidence in sport• Practical strategies athletes can use to support pelvic floor health• The role of pelvic floor physical therapy and rehabilitation, and the high success rates seen with targeted interventionsImportantly, this conversation highlights that urinary leakage during sport is not normal and should not be ignored. With proper evaluation and treatment, particularly through specialized physical therapy, many athletes experience substantial improvements and can continue training and competing without limitations.Whether you're a strength coach, athletic trainer, sports medicine clinician, or athlete, this episode provides practical insight into an often under-discussed topic that has major implications for the health and performance of female athletes.#complicatedsimple #resultsthatgiveback #heartbeatbarbell

In this episode of the Flex Diet Podcast, I sit down with Dr. Scott Sherr to take a deep dive into methylene blue, mitochondrial function, and where the truth lies between online hype and fear. We talk through how methylene blue acts as a redox cycler in the mitochondria, how dosing differs for mitochondrial support versus antimicrobial use, and why high doses or poorly labeled liquid droppers can cause problems.  Dr. Sherr also shares how he's used methylene blue with athletes for recovery and endurance, including timing, half-life, and practical ranges he sees most often. We cover how mitochondrial health connects to energy, mood, focus, stress physiology, and recovery, plus resources from Transcriptions and the Health Optimization Medicine and Practice (HOMe/HOPe) framework.

In this episode of The Burn Podcast, Ben Newman sits down with his longtime friend and fellow Spartan, Dr. Lorenzo Guess—Assistant AD, Director of Athletic Performance at Michigan State, and Director of Strength & Conditioning for men's basketball. From being a two-sport athlete at Michigan State to helping lead championship-level programs as a coach, Dr. Guess shares the fire that has driven him to keep growing, keep serving, and keep showing up at the highest level. Raised in a single-parent home, his burn was built from a desire to create a better life, honor his family, and do things no one around him had done before. That same drive carried him through adversity, including rewriting his dissertation during COVID and earning his doctorate because his daughter challenged him to finish what he started.Ben and Dr. Guess dive into what it means to coach beyond the game—developing not just better athletes, but stronger, more disciplined young men who are ready for life after college. They talk about the culture of Michigan State basketball, the standards set by Tom Izzo, and why talent alone is never enough. Dr. Guess explains how true development comes from accountability, detail, consistency, and refusing to let anything slip through the cracks—even with the most gifted players. This conversation is about legacy, family, discipline, and the responsibility to become an example for those watching. If you want to understand what it looks like to lead with energy, serve with purpose, and stay committed to growth long after success arrives, this episode is for YOU.************************************Connect with Dr. Lorenzo Guess: Linkedin: https://www.linkedin.com/in/dr-lorenzo-guess-mba-mscc-cscs-ab61a016/Book: https://a.co/d/0gyuyKqY************************************Watch the full episode on YouTube: https://youtu.be/kqsszfeZ9FEListen on all platforms: https://www.theburnpodcast.com************************************Learn about upcoming events and coaching: https://www.workwithbnc.comGet Ben's latest book The STANDARD:  https://amzn.to/3DE1clY1stWork directly with Ben: https://www.bennewmancoaching.comConnect with Ben Newman:Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/continuedfightFacebook: https://www.facebook.com/Continuedfight/Twitter: https://twitter.com/ContinuedFightLinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/ben-newman-b0b693Qlogix: www.Q-logix.com/benhttps://www.bennewmancoaching.com************************************ Learn about our Upcoming events and programs:https://www.workwithbnc.comLet's work TOGETHER https://www.bennewmancoaching.comLet's work together to write YOUR next book- BNC PublishingSend us a message Order my latest book The STANDARD: Winning at YOUR Highest Level: https://amzn.to/3DE1clY1st Phorm | The Foundation of High Performance Nutrition1stPhorm.com/bnewman Connect with me everywhere else: Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/continuedfight Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/Continuedfight/ Twitter: https://twitter.com/ContinuedFight Linkedin: https://www.linkedin.com/in/ben-newman-b0b693

"The Earth is negatively charged, and there's energy coming up through the Earth. Our bodies are positively charged, and when the negative ions from the earth come up into our body, it reduces free radicals and it reduces inflammation.

Stress. We all feel it in some way…big or small. And it's not that stress is actually bad. It's that under-recovered stress is potentially deadly. This week on the IMPACT SHOW, we're talking about something every single one of us deals with — stress. And not just surface-level stress. I'm talking about the kind that builds quietly over time. The kind that high performers carry. The kind that can cost you your health if you're not careful. My guest today is Derek Clark — performance coach, speaker, and founder of the Stress Recovery Game Plan. Derek's story will stop you in your tracks. In his 40s, after years of operating at a high level, he was diagnosed with high blood pressure… which led to open-heart surgery… which was followed by a cancer diagnosis. This isn't theory. This is lived experience. And what he discovered is something we ALL need to hear — stress isn't the enemy. Under-recovered stress is. This episode will challenge you, wake you up, and equip you with tools you can use immediately. In this episode, you'll hear and learn: The difference between strategic, tactical, and responsive stress — and which one is silently draining most high performers. Why "chronic stress" is really under-recovered stress — and how to start correcting it. Derek's powerful 4-step Stress Recovery Game Plan to regain balance daily. Why mindset and sleep are the two most important levers you can pull starting tonight. Practical strategies to improve recovery — from HRV awareness to breathwork to building a better pre-sleep routine. The "Flip the Coin" mindset tool to reframe setbacks and turn adversity into fuel. Some of the questions inside this week's IMPACT SHOW include: You've used the term "stress-oholic." What do you mean by that—and how did you realize you were living that way? Most people think stress is the enemy. You say stress is misunderstood. What do most of us get wrong about stress? How do you personally define stress today, and how is that definition different than the typical "stress is bad" narrative? Can you walk us through what stress is actually doing in the body—physiologically—when someone feels anxious, overwhelmed, or stuck in overdrive? At what point did you realize you didn't need more stress management… you needed a recovery strategy? Can you break down the 4 steps of the Stress Recovery Game Plan™ and what each step helps people do? What are some of the 7 recovery tactics inside the Stress Recovery Game Plan, and which ones tend to give people the fastest results early on? If someone is in a season of life where stress feels nonstop—work, family, health—what's the first "small win" you'd recommend to start regaining control? What do you say to high performers who feel like recovery is "lazy," "soft," or something they'll do later when life slows down? Here's the bottom line: you don't need less ambition. You need better recovery. If you're building something big — a business, a career, a family, a legacy — stress will be part of the equation. The key is learning how to balance it so it builds you instead of breaking you. If this episode hits home, share it with someone who needs it. Post it to your story. Text it to your business partner or spouse. And if you're serious about elevating your health and performance this year, take one action from this episode and implement it TODAY. I hope you enjoyed today's episode.  IG: @ToddDurkin @derek.r.clark FB: @ToddDurkinFQ10 #StressRecoveryGamePlan #Ep468 Derek Clark is a stress recovery expert and speaker who helps individuals regain balance, reduce health vulnerabilities, and enhance day-to-day performance. He draws on his own experience navigating two rare health conditions, challenges he attributes in part to the cumulative effects of chronic, unbalanced stress. His story of overcoming adversity led to a complete reevaluation of how we respond to stress and how we recover from it. Derek is a licensed athletic trainer and master sports performance coach with over 25 years of experience working with athletes and high performers. He is the founder of Grizz Athletic Performance and Recovery, a company focused on physical and mental development, injury rehabilitation, and sustainable recovery strategies. He also serves as the Director of Athletic Performance and Wellness at the Greater Pittsburgh Sports Complex, where he applies the same principles of stress recovery, performance enhancement, and holistic well-being with athletes, professionals, and teams. Through his Stress Recovery Game Plan™, a four-step daily framework supported by seven key tactics, Derek empowers individuals to redefine their relationship with stress and build a resilient internal environment—mentally, emotionally, and physically. His approach speaks to the everyday challenges faced by employees and leaders alike, helping them feel, perform, and live better. He believes everyone is an athlete in the game of life—and his mission is to help them recover like one.

Today's guest is Tanner Care. Tanner Care is a high-performance specialist, currently serving as the Director of Player Performance for the BC Lions (CFL) and the Director of Athletic Performance for the Vancouver Bandits (CEBL). Since 2023, he has also held the role of Head Strength and Conditioning Coach at Simon Fraser University, where he oversees the physical development of athletes across 13 collegiate sports. On the surface, strength and conditioning is about increasing an athlete's physical strength and capacities. To dig deeper and help athletes reach their highest potential, an understanding of sprint-specific forces, athlete archetypes, and dosage of inputs is essential. On today's show, Tanner talks about his practical framework for elite athlete development. He shares how he integrates max-speed work into sport-specific drills, such as full-court basketball overthrows, and explains his “layered” coaching model, which progresses from foundational health and general capacity to more specific archetyping. The conversation also dives into the technical side of his toolkit, including the use of run-specific isometrics for sprint transfer, plyometric training, and how he balances force-velocity profiles across different athlete types. Ultimately, Tanner advocates for a “health-first” approach in the pro setting, favoring consistent, high-quality inputs over unnecessarily complex training schemes.

On the Priority of Training: "That's layer one health has to come before performance. So removing any potential inhibition." On Dynamic vs. Passive Screening: "I've seen so many people get on a table, assess passive hip internal rotation and say there's some kind of limitation. But when we see it dynamically at sports speed, it's like, oh, there it is." On General Movement Competency: "I can't tell you the amount of professional guys I have come in that like can't do like rudimentary plyometrics like they can't hop or bound stationary let alone locomotively" On Local vs. Global Issues: "Do we have a Ferrari? Do we have a Honda Civic? Do we have a Ferrari with a flat tire? Like, sometimes we just have to deal with local issues, not necessarily broad systems of improving the overall organism." On the Limits of Strength: "We know that the strongest individuals aren't necessarily the most forceful individuals. At some point, there's a clear cutoff." On Stiffness and Propulsion: "Rate of force development and stiffness isn't always a good thing if they don't have the propulsive qualities necessary to actually displace their hips horizontally" On Force and Sprint Performance“If you're able to generate adequate force at adequate time and attenuate high braking force, that's always going to correlate positively with sprint performance.” On Weight Room Philosophy: "I try to remove skill or as much skill as I can within the context of the weight room."

Vitamin D and magnesium work together to regulate muscle contraction, energy production, bone strength, and recovery, forming a nutrient pairing that determines how effectively your body responds to training Research consisting of professional and Olympic sports shows widespread vitamin D and magnesium deficiency, which raises injury risk, slows recovery, weakens strength, and reduces endurance through impaired calcium and adenosine triphosphate (ATP) function Magnesium deficiency often hides behind normal blood tests, disrupts cellular energy production, worsens fatigue and cramps, and increases soreness, especially in endurance athletes training hard or in hot environments Endurance exercise increases magnesium needs by shifting the mineral into working muscles and increasing losses through sweat and urine Supplementing magnesium and vitamin D together improves strength, endurance, recovery, and soreness within weeks, particularly in athletes starting deficient or training at high volumes, without increasing workout intensity

In the late 1990s, a strange carbon molecule quietly delivered the single longest lifespan extension ever recorded in mammals. The rats lived about 90% longer, and almost no one was paying attention. This episode breaks down what that molecule is, why it works, and how it may upgrade mitochondria, sleep, and human performance when used correctly. Watch this episode on YouTube for the full video experience: https://www.youtube.com/@DaveAspreyBPR Host Dave Asprey sits down with Chris Burres, founder and chief scientist of MyVitalC and the original long-term manufacturer of carbon 60. Chris has produced this Nobel Prize–winning molecule since the early 1990s, supplying research institutions around the world years before it ever entered the biohacking space. He explains how carbon 60 behaves differently from traditional antioxidants, why stability and concentration used to be major problems, and how modern manufacturing finally made real-world use possible. Chris is also a published author, longevity summit host, patent holder, and longtime science communicator who brings rare clarity and humor to complex biology. Dave and Chris explore how carbon 60 interacts with mitochondria, oxidative stress, metabolism, and electrical signaling in the body, and where it fits alongside ketosis, nootropics, supplements, and functional medicine strategies. They also unpack why improving mitochondrial function often shows up first as better energy and sleep optimization, and how that foundation supports longevity, brain optimization, and Smarter Not Harder performance. Along the way, Dave shares his own early experience with C60, how he uses it today, and why it now shows up even in his Danger Coffee stack. You'll Learn: • Why carbon 60 produced the longest longevity result ever recorded in mammal studies • How mitochondrial efficiency shapes energy, sleep, and human performance • What makes C60 a selective antioxidant instead of a blunt one • Why purity, concentration, and stability determine whether a supplement works • How carbon 60 fits into biohacking stacks built around ketosis and metabolism • What users report first, from focus and resilience to deeper sleep • Why mitochondrial health underpins long-term anti-aging strategies • How to think about supplements through a Smarter Not Harder lens Dave Asprey is a four time New York Times bestselling author, founder of Bulletproof Coffee, and the father of biohacking.

Can reducing acid-forming foods and boosting alkaline-forming foods replicate the performance-enhancing effects of sodium bicarbonate without the adverse effects?

In this episode of the Garage Gym Athlete podcast, Jerred Moon and Dave discuss the effects of light exposure on athletic performance, focusing on a study involving elite athletes. They explore the benefits of morning light and the importance of avoiding screens before bedtime. The conversation shifts to the significance of morning routines, practical ways to implement light exposure, and the role of technology in managing light. They also delve into the debate between kettlebell and barbell training, emphasizing the importance of nutrition and timing in relation to sleep quality and overall performance. The episode concludes with thoughts on training equipment choices and the impact of light and food on circadian rhythms.  

Your jaw influences far more than your face. This episode shows you how jaw strength shapes cognition, posture, airway health, sleep, metabolism, and overall human performance. You will learn how targeted jaw training increases cranial blood flow, improves neuromuscular coordination, strengthens airway stability, and stimulates facial muscles that modern diets no longer challenge. Watch this episode on YouTube for the full video experience: https://www.youtube.com/@DaveAspreyBPR Host Dave Asprey talks with Brandon Harris, founder and CEO of Jawzrsize. Brandon developed the device after multiple severe injuries, including a shattered jaw, months of immobilization, and a 13 day coma. His recovery forced him to rebuild his jaw strength from zero and revealed how deeply the jaw affects posture, oral health, proprioception, and cognitive function. Brandon's experience as a mixed martial artist and his early training of the masseter muscle guided the creation of a safe, medical grade jaw resistance system that now has small clinical data supporting improvements in strength, facial tone, Bruxism relief, and TMJ balance. You will hear how jaw alignment influences the nervous system, why weak jaws contribute to sleep apnea, how saliva flow ties oral health to gut health, and why resistance training for the jaw produces structural benefits the modern soft diet fails to provide. Host Dave Asprey explains how full range jaw training supports cranial stimulation, nitric oxide signaling, fascia activation, posture correction, and neuromuscular coordination throughout the body. This episode also explores how jaw mechanics connect to biohacking principles like brain optimization, sleep optimization, longevity, neuroplasticity, metabolic signaling, and strength based anti aging. This is essential listening for anyone focused on biohacking, human performance, posture mechanics, airway stability, TMJ function, oral microbiome health, anti aging, supplements that support structural function, nervous system training, and practical tools that create fast visible results. You'll Learn: • Why jaw strength acts as a foundational marker for performance and longevity • How jaw alignment shapes posture, proprioception, and neuromuscular firing • Why weak jaws contribute to sleep apnea, snoring, and airway collapse • How jaw training improves Bruxism, clenching, and TMJ tension • What increased cranial blood flow does for cognition and focus • How saliva production supports oral and gut health • Why modern diets shrink facial structure and weaken masseter strength • How jaw resistance training improves facial tone and reduces wrinkle depth • Why athletes use jaw activation to sharpen hand eye coordination • How range of motion training strengthens bone through piezoelectric signaling • Why even five minutes a day creates noticeable results in facial tone and alignment Thank you to our sponsors! -HeartMath | Go to https://www.heartmath.com/dave to save 15% off. -fatty15 | Go to https://fatty15.com/dave and save an extra $15 when you subscribe with code DAVE. -Quantum Upgrade | Go to https://quantumupgrade.io/Dave for a free trial.
