A Load of BS: The Behavioural Science Podcast with Daniel Ross
Whether on the track or in the boardroom, 400m Olympian Andrew Steele's story proves that mental toughness and reinvention are key to success. His ability to push through challenges and adapt shows resilience is a skill we can all carry with us, whatever the arena.Here are my three takeaways from our conversation:1️⃣ Resilience is a transferable skill→ The mental toughness Andrew built as an athlete prepared him to tackle the challenges of entrepreneurship head-on.2️⃣ Focus on the process, not just the result→ Whether in sport or business, daily consistency and commitment are what drive success.3️⃣ Reinvention is success→ After athletics, Andrew co-founded DNAFit, a health-tech company that was later acquired. His journey proves success is about evolving and finding new passions, not just collecting accolades.Andrew's story reminds us that life's twists shape us – it's how we respond that defines us.Please leave a review if you like the podcast; and share with friends.

When I was younger, I used to be more impulsive, but with age, I've learned to pause. Now, instead of feeling the need to respond immediately, I can remove myself from the situation and give it some time. It's not about answering right away; it's about taking a step back and coming to a decision later, maybe even a few hours or a day after. I think it's all a part of the journey of mastering my emotions, and I believe that this process continues as I become more mature. Thoughts on Breathing I learned about the Buteyko breathing method from an expert in Ireland named Patrick McKeown, who learned it directly from Dr. Constantine Buteyko, who, I think, was Ukrainian or Russian. Dr. Buteyko noticed that people who were very sick tended to breathe very shallowly, and this observation led to the development of the Buteyko method. In our modern world, many of us tend to over-breathe or hyperventilate, taking in more air than we need. The Buteyko method is all about training your body to breathe less air and slowing down your breath. It should be so subtle that it's almost imperceptible. This method has shown positive results, especially for people with conditions like anxiety and ADHD. Breathing through your nose and at a slower pace, around 10 to 12 breaths per minute, can have significant benefits. Over-breathing can alter the blood's pH and make it harder for oxygen to reach your cells, even if you're breathing rapidly. Breathing re-education is a bit like mindfulness or meditation – it's a subtle practice that can help you become calmer and more focused. Suggested Resources Book: Autism Well Being Plan, How to Get Your Child Healthy by Christian Yordanov Book: The Laws of Human Nature by Robert Greene App: n/a Bullying Story When I was nine years old, my family moved from Bulgaria to South Africa, and it was a big change for me. I couldn't speak English, so I felt different, and that made me a target for bullies at school. I learned that sometimes you have to stand up to bullies, even though I'm not proud of some of the fights I got into as a kid. But what's really interesting is that when I went back to Bulgaria six years later, I was once again the “different” one, and bullying happened again. I've been on both sides of it; I've been bullied, and I've even bullied others, although I now know it's not the right way to handle it. Now, I believe it's crucial to teach kids to stand up to bullies, but you have to be mindful about it. It's important to remember that bullies are often hurting inside. We need to approach them with empathy and not take their actions personally. By doing so, we can defuse the situation and avoid carrying the pain with us.

Host Brad Kearns talks to Joe Cohen, the founder of SelfDecode, a genetic testing service that gives customers personalized health recommendations based on their genes. Great advancements have been made with genetic testing in recent years, and running your genetic profile once allows you to apply future research advancements to your unchanging genetic profile and learn further insights. Joe describes how genetic testing can help you make the best decisions for exercise, eating, mood stability, and sleeping habits. It's important to acknowledge that self optimization should always be centered on testing, evaluating, and retesting, but knowing what direction to head with a genetic road map can be extremely valuable. For example, athletes can learn valuable insights about the antioxidant needs, methylation abilities, and muscle fiber composition to help design a training plan that they will respond to successfully. For example, Brad mentions his DNAFit report that revealed a ratio of 54% strength/power to 46% endurance in his genotype, a revelatory insight that would have helped revise his triathlon training away from a pure endurance approach that most triathletes follow to something more suited to his genetics.

Life-Sparring Podcast - Fighting Mediocrity, One Round At A Time
After listening to her carrying a few Clubhouse panels on genetics, I somehow tricked the fabulous Dena Goldberg, aka Dena DNA, to jump into the Life-Sparring ring with me to discuss genetic testing for health.Dena holds a master's degree in genetic counseling from the University of California, Irvine, and is one of 5,000 board accredited Genetic Counselors. She also made it her mission to increase the public awareness of genetic testing for health and created her personal brand Dena DNA around it.My discussion with Dena covers many aspects of genetic testing: We talk about the role of a genetic counselor, the fundamental difference between DTC genotyping and targeted sequencing panels, potential pitfalls in interpreting genotyping data, nutrigenomics, critical genetic defects to look for, the future of gene therapy and even CRISPR gene editing.Dena is exceptionally knowledgeable and has the talent to break complicated scientific topics down so that even people without much background knowledge can easily digest them.If you are interested in understanding your genetic makeup, I am sure you will find this Life-Sparring Round with Dena DNA as insightful as I do.

Angela is with Andrew Steele former GB Olympic medal holder, a founding member of DNA fit and head of product to find out about how they use DNA testing to transform results in sport, weight loss and preventative health. In this deep dive episode, find out all about how DNA testing can help you to optimise your health and wellbeing and why your genes are not your destiny it’s the epigenetics, the expression of your genes, that makes the difference to your health and longevity. Shining a light on the nature part of the nature, nurture equation is the key to understanding and provides information that can be used to successfully improve outcomes for any individual. KEY TAKEAWAYS When the environment is the same but people’s outcomes are different the question is what is the other factor? DNA testing highlights the nature part of the nature-nurture equation. It provides another piece of information that can be used by individuals to improve their outcomes. You can use genetic data to help you reach your goals, it will help you to get better quicker. For nutrition genetic data helps with sustained changes in behaviours. People have a specific internal motivation as to ‘why’. They know they are made in a particular way and require particular nutrition. There is self-motivation for making one choice over another. There is a complete spectrum of diets that we are familiar with and individuals will have greatly differing experiences with them. There are 2 macronutrient groups that can be looked at; -Response to saturated fats -Response to refined carbohydrates This layer of ‘why’ and understanding how it is different for each person is important in making a difference. It’s a powerful motivation tool when you understand the impact of your genetics. Circle is the world’s most comprehensive DNA test reporting on 500 different genetic traits across 20 categories. Whole enzyme sequencing looks at every single part of the active or protein-coding part of the human genome.

The goal of The Win Your Life Podcast is to illuminate the intersection between prevention and performance. The fitness industry is focused on performance and not always concerned with prevention. On the other hand, our health care system is focused, by necessity, on combatting the overwhelming amount of disease, illness and injury in our society. At the intersection of prevention and performance, there is a group of coaches, medical professionals, business leaders, athletes, and thought leaders that are working to help you Win Your Life. In this series, we are addressing the idea of 'Universal Prescriptions', the notion that there is a best way for us all to exercise, eat, sleep, breath and live. Our first guest is The Power House MN's lead Nutrition Coach Gina Fangel ‘Universal prescriptions’ as a concept it not my idea, I first heard Kelly Starrett talking about it in this way in one of his MobilityWOD videos regarding squatting technique (http://YouTubewww.youtube.com) .

In this episode, Debbie shares her "stay at home" workout routine and tips to stay strong while we can't get to the gym! It is important to keep a schedule, find a new routine and sense of purpose each day. Week days are different than week ends! SLEEP is essential to recovery, repair and immunity to time your food, workouts and stressors away from bedtime (no news at night!). 1. April Yoga Challenge - "like" LOW CARB ATHLETE Facebook page for suggested YouTube free yoga "classes" - three days a week and discover your "Areas of Opportunity". Wow- my hips are tight and my right quad/hip is off! 2. Sunrise walks 10-15 minutes then "lunch break" walk and then an evening walk if we don't run or bike. 3. Bike rides - if you can ride outside then get out for some fresh air and leave your hood (if allowed!). Less is more right now so keep your exercise time and intensity low. 4. Run or run/walk- purpose to each workout, pace by heart rate, flat easy runs and hard hilly runs - or find stairs! 5. Strength Training: Circuit training with 2-4 exercises with 2-4 rounds with timer (Ipad HIIT Timer app). Less is more as we do not need more sources of chronic stress and activating release of the stress hormones CORTISOL when we are experiencing a world wide pandemic. Here is an article on cortisol, stress, and exercise DNAFit article: What you can do to maintain healthy cortisol levels when training- It is possible to enjoy the undeniable benefits of exercise while minimizng the impact on cortisol concentrations: Don't overdo it. Take regular breaks from intense training and listen to your body. Leave intense sessions to later in the day, when cortisol levels are lower. Eat right to fuel your body and make sure you consume carbohydrates and protein after exercise to decrease the cortisol response. Consider adaptogens to improve your body's response to stress. Check out our stress-busting article (coming on Friday!) for ways to cope with life's stresses and strains. Key equipment to have at home (Amazon)...I posted links on my LOW CARB ATHLETE Facebook page a few weeks ago. 1. BOSU 2. Stability Ball 3. STROOPS bands or bands with handles 4. Ankle bands 5. Perfect Push-up handles 6. Exercise Mat 7. Weights, Kettlebells and/or Medicine Ball 8. TRX 9. Rip Trainer Another article -Why long cardio workouts don't lead to sustained weight loss Over time our bodies adapt to repetitive aerobic exercise, using www.debbiepotts.net oxygen and energy more efficiently, thereby hindering fat loss. Endurance cardio has also been linked to an increase in the body's production of the “stress” hormone cortisol. If cortisol levels remain raised over time, our bodies become more sensitive to insulin and store fat (particularly in the abdominal area). Serotonin, thyroid function, growth hormone, testosterone and estrogen levels are all disrupted. Get outside and play...but stay 10 feet away from others, train alone or with your partner/housemate/spouse and wear a mask if around others!

Welcome to Episode #6 from the Festival Of Enterprise Podcast 2020."One thing that I, I am very convinced about, and I prove to myself time and time again is the ability to see things to make them happen. And I've proved that again and again, as I said, where if you can really see something, you can definitely achieve it. And if I had to go back to when I was younger, even now with my own children, you know, I always install the thinking that you can really achieve anything you want. And, you know, of course, education is important. And of course, having that formality in, you know, in your interest in the way forward that you get put through in terms of the education and stuff I think that is, is great, but it's not, it's not what you need to be successful in life. Yeah, absolutely. Any sort of in business life, you know, and it's not a dependency and if you don't have an education, you can still, you know, achieve so much. And that is my case, because I you know, I didn't go to university, I didn't, you know, finish university, and so I didn't need that to be ultimately what's deemed as successful today."I talk to Avi Lasarow, who created a global brand DNAfit, scaling it to a £20 million business with zero funding, and Avi is the CEO International for the worlds most comprehensive DNA test - CircleDNA. Avi's held a lifelong ambition to use genetics to transform the health and wellness for millions of people by striving to reduce and prevent lifestyle related health conditions, so we can all live healthier and happier lives.You can see Avi speak at the Festival Of Enterprise in London and ask him your questions in April.

Welcome to the trailer for Episode #6, Season 2 of the Festival Of Enterprise podcast 2020."I always see being an entrepreneur and doing your job as almost like a hobby. So my wife, for example, that's riding horses. She'll do that all the time when she's not at work. She's riding horses. Yeah, for me when I'm at work, I'm at work because work is my equivalent to that kind of hobby. Yeah, she does use against me, by the way, because when I say hey, you know I'm doing because work she'll say, No, no, you didn't because of a hobby. But um, I think if I had to separate something I'm trying to is difficult is to try and separate technology from, from, from the personal life that makes sense. So I might not separate work, because if I don't have technology, I might write my ideas down or conceptualise things out of the technology framework. And that's the big distinction I'm trying to do because I think it's healthier to do so."Join me later this week for the full episode with Avi Lasarow, Founder and CEO of DNAFit.

With all the changes that have been happening in the world of genetics, how can we re-imagine our health? Olympian and genetics expert Andrew Steele shares about Circle DNA, and how you can personalise your health, fitness, and wellbeing through DNA testing. Visit https://www.bodyshotperformance.com/topic/podcasts/ for the complete show notes of every podcast episode. Topics Discussed in this Episode: How you can personalise your health, fitness, and wellbeing through DNA testing. How our understanding of genetics has changed in the last couple of years as it relates to diet and nutrition What Circle DNA is all about Epigenetics and the lifestyle changes that you can make with what your genes tell you about YOU Key Takeaways: There's a gene called ACTN3 which is probably the most researched gene elite power and performance. You can either have the CC genotype, the TT genotype, or the CT genotype. The CC or the CT genotype of the ACTN3 are extremely over-represented in elite power athletes. Historically, research was largely funded for genetic research into life-changing medical conditions. What's happened in the last couple of years, as the technology has become cheaper and cheaper to do the laboratory part of the process, research has now included lifestyle and health. The cheaper the technology becomes, the more research can be done cheaply, therefore the better discoveries can be made and the better products you can make from them become cheaper. Circle DNA is the world's most comprehensive direct-to-consumer DNA test. Action Steps: Get DNA testing and find out: What type of exercise your body responds best to How you should structure your eating plan How you can work with your genes and not against them Andrew said: "Genetics is only one part of the picture, albeit a power part of the picture nonetheless.""In the last couple of years, there has been a further [democratisation] and a mass understanding of the role of genetics in things outside of just the clinical context."

Coached in “kampung spirit” of Integrated Riding Racing Team (IRRT) - takes a village to ride fast! Kudos to Merle Talviste (Swim Smooth coaching Singapore)Tell us about your philosophy on nutritionNutritional choices (what to take) is NOT diet (sum of intake). Let's get terms right. Most important aspect is Hunger vs. Appetite. Figure your Estimated Energy Requirement: http://bit.ly/foodbuddy-eer Set yourself up for the reality around you. Then get bored! How I pre-select to fight appetite. Recipes. Patterns.VICE uploaded “Mac & Cheese for 17 years” - “I've tried celery. I threw that shit out instantly” - https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=v1TWvXwgKr0 .Crazy case of some nervosa, definitely not anorexia nervosa though.Anyways, it's ABCD - no single right answer! Nutritional Needs Assessment uncovers it:● Anthropometric (i.e. BMI %%-s, fat loss progress, )● Biochemical (nutrient deficiencies, cholesterol level, OGTT for Diabetes)● Clinical (skin state, etc.)● Dietary (ecological / social status, certain food restrictions due to religion, food log, habits)As to athletes… aspiring vs. amateur, let's be real.● Eliud Kipchoge - Maurten hydrogel 2018, 2019. By the way there's a study that it's not really working as it's supposed to?.. Well, it works for Eliud anyways.● Chris Froome - haribo gummy candies in Giro D'Italia 2018 while losing 1 kg over 5 days.So did Peter Sagan.For us, ex-hunters with 10,000-s of years of experience, - everything edible is great in moderation.There are lots of diets that endurance athletes follow from Vegan, to Paleo to HCLF to Full Keto. What do you believe is the ideal diet for endurance sportsSuccessful event is a factor of preparation, mental health, in-race nutrition, luck (i.e. weather). Successful result is equivalent to “high performance”. High performance usually means lower mass.There's a new movie about vegan diet that throws in a bunch of claims by the way:● “Roman gladiators didn't eat meat” - that's an anecdote from archaeologist, Andrew Curry, in Archaelogoly Magazine 2008: Karl Grossschmidt of Medical University of Vienna, Vienna (MedUni Vienna). Gladiators, it seems, were fat. Consuming a lot of simple carbohydrates, such as barley, and legumes, like beans, was designed for survival in the arena. Packing in the carbs also packed on the pounds. "Gladiators needed subcutaneous fat," Grossschmidt explains. "A fat cushion protects you from cut wounds and shields nerves and blood vessels in a fight." Not only would a lean gladiator have been dead meat, he would have made for a bad show. Surface wounds "look more spectacular," says Grossschmidt. "If I get wounded but just in the fatty layer, I can fight on," he adds. "It doesn't hurt much, and it looks great for the spectators."● Claim “on par”. Plants could be an extremely good source of protein if all 9 essential amino acids + Nitrogen containing amino acids, but to say that it is on par with animal protein in terms of minerals like iron, vitamins like creatine, and synthesis availability (which are incredibly important for high performing athletes) is an outright BS.For vegetarians, it is important to know that Protein Quality = Amino Acid Composition + Digestibility (soy is best, up to 90% where 100% is meat)Beef is less than egg whiteI eat eggs and drink milk = top PQ food :-) therefore, are you ovo-lacto-vegetarian :-)Complementary: legumes + grains (different amino-acids).Biological Value = (nitrogen retained, g / nitrogen absorbed, g) * 100Higher = better matchLower = lower matchFAT content in meat is higher, yes. There are two types of fat absorption: for saturated fat it's through lymphatic system (chylomicrons, leading to LDL) and through intestine walls then venes and to liver (for unsat / polyunsat). Former flies past the adipose tissue reserves through lymphatic system, resulting in subcutaneous fat refills uncontrolled. Latter is controllable but again, there are two vehicles that can be determined using biochemical blood test -- High Density Lipoproteins (HDL) GOOD lipoprotein -- very small size, Low Density Lipoprotein (LDL) BAD as can potentially clog the arterias.LCHFRothschild JA, Bishop DJ, Effects of Dietary Supplements on Adaptations to Endurance Training, Sports Med. 2019 Sep 17, DOI: https://doi.org/10.1007/s40279-019-01185-8 (shout out, he's in New Zealand doing his PhD)Over the past 20 years, research suggested that strategically reducing carbohydrate (CHO) availability during an athlete's training can modify the metabolic responses in lieu of simply maintaining a high CHO diet. Several methods have been explored to manipulate CHO availability and include: Low-carb, high-fat (LCHF) diets, performing two-a-day training without glycogen restoration between sessions, and a “sleep-low” approachArguments in favor of trying to increase fat-burning capacity focus around the ability to utilize the large stores of endogenous lipids found even in very lean athletes, while preserving the relatively limited supply of muscle and liver glycogen. Yet despite this theoretical advantage, measurable performance improvements from deliberately increasing fat burning capacity have been elusive.Each of these methods can confer beneficial metabolic adaptations for the endurance athlete including increases in mitochondrial enzyme activity, mitochondrial content, and rates of fat oxidation, yet data showing a direct performance benefit is still unclear.Do you believe in strict macros or simply calories in calories outThey all converge to one another, if you do it right. Estimated Energy Requirements (EER) is key here, and think about 7 days sliding windos.Another way to think about food is through the portions count of a particular quality. Kind of Matt Fidzgerald's approach. Know your EER + tweak PAL. Think last 7 days window. Control thirst-induced hunger. Eat breakfast like a pro.How do you believe the diet differs for each endurance sportEverywhere it's Gravity. Gravity is mass. Mass also non-linear to skin area, there's a formula to that. Thus the more mass - the more heat-induced stress from energy production, but not proportionally enough evaporation. Fat % reduction vs. temperature range vs. VO2max. Same stuff.What is your philosophy on nutrition during raceDepends on the race. Drink by thirst, do not fall below, do Protein.What is your philosophy on nutrition in recoverySleep. Compensation vs. recovery. DOMS. Antioxidants. Orange, Lime, Strawberries. Guava.Protein ratio to Carbohydrates. 30% of EER means ~0.8g/kg/day . Increase with intensity. Don't compensate!I do collagen peptides for 100+ km weeksHow do you feel about fasting as a method for endurance athletes.Time restricted eating and longer term fastsExercise more! Ride up grades, don't buy upgrades!What about alcohol? Red wine good / bad? Volume?7 cal/g, balance with life.Do you recommend protein shakes?Depends on training volume, but the the NuZest is great.What about supplements? Vitamins, minerals, fish oils? Do you recommend and how do you suggest people review which supplements they should get. I've done DNAFit which showed a genetic lack of B6 and B12Do the Clinical blood test and talk to doctor.

This treatment improve digestibility that could happen due to the fact that grinding divide and expose all seed component allowing enzymes actions. Finally, soybean flour shows an intermediate digestibility score, which is in concordance with previously a report.BEETROOTConrad P. Earnest, Jeff Rothschild, Christopher R.

Beetroot juice may be more effective than nitrate salts, though the eficiency of supplementation can be affected by inter-individual variability [97] and environmental conditions [98].

What is it like to participate in the world’s toughest ski race? Would you be up for the challenge? Listen in as I tell you all about it and take you through the journey! Who knows? The Arctic Circle Race just might be the next extreme adventure you’re looking for! Visit https://www.bodyshotperformance.com/podcasts-blog for the complete show notes of every podcast episode. Topics Discussed in this Episode: The Arctic Circle Race and why we did it How we prepared for the race My thoughts on the journey What the experience was like Key Takeaways: Both mental and physical endurance are very much needed to take on this kind of challenge. Incredibly powerful things happen when you push yourself into your discomfort zone. You don’t have to go as big as we’ve gone with The Arctic Circle Race, it might be learning an instrument, going online dating, learning a new language, or playing a sport. Taking on a challenge and achieving something is good for your confidence and your resilience. You get a bit more comfortable in very uncomfortable situations. You feel a little more comfortable with unpredictability, and life is unpredictable. A key part of resilience is not your toughness. It’s not what you can endure. It’s more around if you have the tools to cope with the various things that life throws at you and the emotional bandwidth to deal with them. Action Steps: If you are doing a fundraising event, set a really big target and don’t be afraid to ask people to support you. Do something that takes you into your discomfort zone. Have a think about what that thing might be and make sure it’s the appropriate level of challenge at the appropriate time. Leanne said: “[The Arctic Circle Race] is absolutely brutal. It’s the most extraordinary challenge. It’s more like the world’s toughest herring boning and walking race with bits of skiing.” “If you feel that life is pretty smooth and you want to test yourself in some way, then start to look at what you can do. Kick some ideas around.” Thanks for listening! If you want to ask any questions about this, give any feedback, or perhaps kick out some suggestions for future events that we could do or that you’re thinking of doing, we’d love to hear from you!

This week we welcome Andrew Steele to the show. Andrew is a former Olympian and professional athlete. As head of product and professional sport at DNAFit, he shows people how to use their genetic information to get the best results from their training. Questions we ask in this episode: Why is understanding our DNA important? How can understanding our DNA help us with our sleep quality? I’ve heard a lot about the MTHFR gene, what is its role in the body? https://180nutrition.com.au/shop/ This week I’m excited to welcome Andrew Steele. Andrew is a former Olympian and now head of product at DNAFit, an award-winning personalized health and well being company. They help people like you and me to better understand our DNA in order to get the most out of nutrition, fitness, and general well-being. 01:02 In this interview we discuss how we can benefit from this technology, the most common things that people change after testing, and also what the future holds for DNA testing itself. I’m really excited about this technology as it offers the advice that has the potential for us to make better choices all around, which is fantastic. Anyway, enough from me, over to Andrew. 01:27 Hey guys, this is Stu from 180 Nutrition, and I’m delighted to welcome Andrew Steele to the show. Andrew, how are you? Andrew 01:34 I’m good, thanks. Thanks for having me. Stu 01:35 No mate. Thank you for your time. Before we get into the questions, as well for our listeners that may not be familiar with you or your work, could you just tell us a little bit about yourself, and who you are, and what you do? Andrew 01:50 Sure, I’m Andrew. I’m in my current role as the head of products at a company called DNAFit. We specialize in looking at the genetic factors behind fitness and exercise response. We allow people via a home DNA test to personalize their diet, personalize their exercise workout, based on not just their own choices and goals, but also by understanding more about they’re made from a genetic factor. 02:19 Then that plays very well into my previous career, if you will, which was I was an Olympic athlete. I ran the 400 meters and the 4×4 Inter-relay for Great Britain. I spent about 12 years competing professionally there and spent a lot of time traveling all over the world and training everywhere. Part of that experience is what led me to discover the role of light DNA and genetics in sport, basically, and that led me to part of this company.

This show is about rethinking the basic notions of athletic training, particularly the ‘no pain no gain’ model that’s been widely criticized but is still embedded into DNA of many endurance athletes. Brad offers insights from four experts that may just blow your mind and get you to make some changes in your schedule that can lead to big improvements, and reduced risk of overtraining, illness, injury and burnout. These insights place particular emphasis on the recovery aspect of peak performance, something that has been overlooked or taken for granted by hard-charging endurance athletes. It's time to wake up and implement an evolved approach to your endurance goals, with help from four great thought leaders Brad discusses in this show. Some brief highlights: Dr. Phil Maffetone: Honor MAF heart rate and emphasize aerobic development. Never exceed 90% of max heart rate during high intensity sessions. Brian MacKenzie: The Power, Speed, Endurance guru and founder of Crossfit Endurance is now obsessed with recovery as the next evolution of athletic training--stuff like breathing practice, and hot and cold therapy! Joel Jamieson: Joel's Rebound Workouts entail doing a focused protocol of movements that can actually help speed recovery by stimulating parasympathetic activity. The workout includes breathing, stretching, mobility/range of motion exercise, doing positive lifts only (dropping the weight after lifting to avoid eccentric), and doing very short intervals with mindful heart rate lowering during long recovery periods. Craig Marker: Craig and Pavel Tsatsouline of StrongFirst and StrongEndurance suggest that the popular HIIT training is inferior to High-Intensity Repeat Training, where you rest long enough to deliver consistent high-quality efforts and don't get exhausted by the end. Whether you are a casual or serious endurance athlete, this show can transform your approach to sport, improving performance and reducing the risk of burnout. Listen to this show like your life depends upon it! Brad reviews the most important insights gathered from his interviews with these experts. Dr. Phil Maffetone: It's so important to get this out there: The Maffetone formula is 180 minus your age in beats per minute is the maximum fat-burning point that should be the goal of all people interested in maintaining the best training and fitness. [00:03:36] You need not ever exceed 90 percent of your maximum heart rate even during the most intense and explosive training sessions. [00:06:26] Brian MacKenzie, Founder of CrossFit: Breathing, Recovery, Training, Strength and Conditioning, Endurance, Sports Programming, Mechanics, Injuries, Nutrition, and Sleep Analysis are the pieces he puts together to create the total athlete. [00:10:31] The Ice Man, Wim Hof, trains people to overcome the resistance to cold with his breathing protocols. [00:14:57] Joel Jamison offers ground-breaking insights: Emphasis is on recovery-based training methods (rebound workouts). Those are the sessions you perform when you are trying to recover. [00:18:07] Craig Marker, StrongFirst.com: Recommends High-Intensity Repeat Training which is to make the effort, rest for sufficient duration in terms of the quality of the effort. [00:22:59] Four sprints and rest combo works the best for Brad. Focus on quality. [00:28:16] You can apply this same mentality no matter what your sport. The maximum sustained power session vs. the fatiguing session is important to understand. [00:29:31] Brad reviews the importance of resting between the mobility work. [00:34:43] DNAFit.com can analyze your genetic profile to see what sport you are structured for.

Remove the Guesswork: Health, Fitness and Wellbeing for Busy Professionals
In this interview with Craig, former Olympic athlete and Head of Sports Science at DNAFit, we talk about how you can use DNA testing to personalise your diet and fitness program to get better results. We discuss the future of DNA testing, and how it intersects with technology to enable people to self-monitoring and self-quantify their health in ways that were unimaginable ten years ago. We also talk about the importance of recovery, whether you’re an athlete or an office worker, and some protocols you can use right now to help recover from stress – whether that’s from overwork, exercise or other pressures. This episode is all about how you can make significant lifestyle changes with just a few tweaks at a time using the principles of marginal gains. Craig Pickering is an former Olympic athlete, having competed in 4 World Championships and one Olympic Games in the 100m and 4x100m relay. In 2012, Craig switched sports, moving to bobsleigh, where he was selected for the Winter Olympics in 2014. This made Craig only the 8th British athlete to be selected for a Summer and Winter Games, which sounds like a happy ending, but unfortunately he suffered a career ending injury at the pre-Olympic training camp. Since then, Craig has been working as Head of Sports Science at DNAFit, and has recently started a doctorate, examining the use of genetic testing in sports.

Apply for My DNA Coach's Academy by clicking here - This week, we turn our attention to IL-6, a gene that appears in a number of our trait reports – it can affect the power-endurance response, recovery speed, injury risk, and omega-3 requirements. The IL-6 gene can play a role in determining how much interleukin-6 (IL-6) you might produce, either at resting or as a response to exercise. IL-6 causes inflammation, and those with the C allele of this gene are likely to have higher levels of inflammation than those with the G allele. This can affect both recovery, injury risk, and how well you respond to power training. This latter point was reported in a study published in 2010, looking at different genotypes of this gene in elite Spanish power and endurance athletes. It was found that the G allele was more common in elite power athletes compared to the endurance athletes, allowing the researchers to conclude that it plays a role in response to power training. Similar results were found in a 2013 study comparing elite power athletes with nonathletes. Once again, the G allele was significantly more common in the power athletes compared to the non-athletes. In terms of recovery, this gene can play in role in determining how much time you need between your hardest sessions. A study published in 2008 got a group of subjects to do some bicep curls to failure, focusing on lowering the weight as slowly as possible, in order to damage the muscle. They then measured markers of muscle damage found in the blood, such as creatine kinase (CK), and found that the CC genotype of IL-6 had the highest levels of CK, and those with the GG genotype had the lowest, indicating that GG genotypes recover the quickest. Finally, we have IL-6 and its role in general health. Because IL-6 can drive inflammation, it has been implicated in a number of diseases that are inflammatory in nature, including coronary heart disease. A paper from 2001 showed that those with the C allele of this gene had an increased risk of coronary heart disease and hypertension compared to G allele carriers. If we know this, then we can recommend higher amounts of omega-3, which has anti-inflammatory effects within the body. If we see that you have a risk allele of IL-6 or TNF, another gene with inflammatory effects, DNAFit will recommend extra amounts of omega-3 above the recommended daily allowance of 1.6g per day; in this case, up to 3g of omega-3 per day.

Have you ever wondered what happens when someone drips a bunch of saliva into a special tube and mails it off to a company like or for genetic testing? Is there a difference between something you pay a couple hundred bucks for on a website like 23AndMe or DNAFit and the type of "full genome sequencing" people are paying tens of thousands of dollars to companies like the Human Longevity Project to do? Are there such things as "bad genes" or "bad SNPs" and if so, can you do anything about it? What is the future of genetic testing and fixing or upgrading yourself based on your gene results? We delve into these topics and many more on today's podcast. My guest on this episode is Joseph Cohen, previously a podcast guest on Joe is the owner and main writer at . Since upgrading or ‘biohacking’ himself, Joe has become an investor and entrepreneur, founding , a biotech company that helps people understand their genetics in order to optimize their health. uses genetics, blood tests, symptoms and other health data to predict beneficial outcomes for drugs, supplements, lifestyle and dietary changes in order to optimize health. Joe also consults with high profile executives, self-hackers and companies and is writing a book about optimizing health. Joe likes to spend his free time learning how to code. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=I2QKSjVf1a0 During our discussion, you'll discover: -How genes are analyzed these days after you drip your saliva into a tube and "send it off" to a website like 23andme or DNAFit...[6:35] -How is this different than the "full genome sequencing" people are paying tens of thousands of dollars to companies like the Human Longevity Project to do...[10:20] -What an SNP is and why it's so important for you to be able to identify various units in your DNA that can have mutations...[14:05] -How Joe's SelfDecode website works, and how it is far different than uploading your results to a website like Promethease and Genetic Genie...[16:30 & 36:45] -The most common gene issues that can cause health problems, including the cannabinoid gene, the HLA gene and the MTHRF gene...[44:10 & 49:30] -What a "gene pack" is, why there are certain packs associated with things like longevity, cognitive health, dopamine, etc...[54:00] -And much more!

As part of a new series on the My DNA Coach, we are going to look at a specific gene's in detail over the coming months, see what the science says about it, and how it can affect you with regards to fitness and diet. Over View of the episode: The first gene to be put under the microscope in our series is ACE, or the angiotensin-converting enzyme gene. ACE is a special gene because it appears in three different sections of the DNAFit reports – power/endurance profile, carbohydrate sensitivity, and salt sensitivity. This gene is reported to slightly differently to most other genes too, in as much as you can have the Insertion (or I) allele, or the deletion (D) allele. The main function of angiotensin-converting enzyme is to convert angiotensin-I to angiotensin-II. Those with the DD genotype tend to have more of the ACE enzyme, and so generally are more effective at converting angiotensin-I to angiotensin-II. Links from the show: http://mydnacoach.com/

Can Kids Take Smart Drugs? Jens says: He's from the Netherlands, and he's wondering what the best supplements are for kids to get their max performance at school? In my response, I recommend: - - -Magnesium (e.g. ) - Can Ketosis Cause Muscle Damage? Dave says: He's 4 weeks into ketosis and 5 weeks out from his first marathon. He did a 24k run yesterday and afterwards he had pale brown urine and he was advised to go to emergency where they told him he has rhabdomyolysis because his body could no longer burn fat and that it started to break down his muscles because he had no carbs on board. His question is, is that possible? Why would his body stop burning fat because of a lack of carbs? They recommended he take some carbs before a long run, which sounds like carb loading, and he's concerned if he does that before the marathon, once they are gone, his body won't be fat adapted and he'll be in worse trouble than when he started. Can you clarify? In my response, I recommend: -My article Can Infrared Saunas Lower Sperm Count? Jay says: He appreciates your bad-assery and appreciates you putting it on your podcast. He has some questions about sauna. He bought a sauna a while back and didn't think about EMFs - does this mean he needs to get rid of it and get a new one? And do you know anything about sitting on an ice pack while sitting in a sauna, just so the 'gentlemen's' boys don't get too hot. In my response, I recommend: - 23andMe vs. DNAFit Polly says: Polly is from Columbus Ohio, she started listening 4-5 months ago and got interested in biohacking thanks to you. She's interested in getting her DNA tested because she thinks she'll find out a lot to optimize her well being, but she's not sure about the difference between 23andMe, DNAFit and the other programs, like Promethease. She has read your blogs but she's still confused, can you help her out? In my response, I recommend: - - - Services that provide analysis of Raw23andMe data Some of these pages are actually more or less replacing the old reports of 23andMe with health risks, some are ancestry related. Page exclusively written about this post topic - - repository of many tools dedicated to extracting information from your data by 23andMe - a literature retrieval system that builds a personal DNA report based on connecting a file of DNA genotypes to the scientific findings cited in , analysis cost $5–10. - is run by Joe from and is in beta-release for biohackers - provides some methylation and detox reports (for me, at least for now, detox is just kind of buzzword with no exact meaning) - family finder thing - geneticists from Columbia University and the New York Genome Center that will use your data for research and provide you some report and /or find some relatives of you - costs about $20, reports for 600,000 SNPs, AND attach 12 resources for generating reports - reports from 23andMe data about fitness and diet Servies that can help you with SNPs analyzed - kind of a wiki pages of many SNPs analyzed by 23andMe - I use it as a newspaper - repository not only for human species’ SNPs - consumer-friendly information about human genetics from the National Library of Medicine - an integrated database of human maladies and their annotations, modeled on the architecture of GeneCards database of human genes - an online catalog of human genes and genetic disorders - I don’t know much about this, but could be usefull for findings about methylation, costs $10–30. s ..and of course SciHub and LibGen could be usefull too. Or just any good library. Other interesting services - tools for DNA and Genealogy Research - service for creating your own family tree (I got to this while searching in 23andMe database of user’s names that could be related to me)

On today's show, we feature Mary Vance, a holistic nutritionist who helps clients with gluten-free and paleo meal plans. Through optimizing nutrition, she also specializes in helping individuals get their allergies under control. Mary was an animal lover since she was a child, and became a vegetarian at age 15 when she learned about the horrors of factory farming. She became anemic, and, following popular books based on vegetarianism, tried to heal herself with a diet high in soy, legumes and grains. But her health issues only grew worse, and Mary was left with an extreme hormonal imbalance and digestive distress. After graduating from Emory University in Atlanta, she decided to continue her education and seek out solutions to her health issues that defied conventional medical solutions. So she enrolled at Bauman College in Berkeley in 2004 and graduated as a Certified Nutrition Consultant in Summer, 2006. Since then, she has recovered her health completely, and spends her life making it her mission to help others do the same. So tune into today's show, which covers a range of topics such as estrogen dominance, the effects of milk thistle, cosmetic use, infertility, and Hashimoto's disease.

Brad Kearns talks to British Olympic 400 meter runner Andrew Steele of DNAFit.com. DNAFit offers cutting edge genetic testing to identify your athletic and dietary attributes, enabling you to develop a strategy honoring your genetic particulars.Andrew is the athletics specialist for the operation and is still an active professional runner pointing for the 2016 Olympic Games. He shares his own remarkable story of reaching the highest level of world performance. This British national champion ran a 44.96 and made the Olympic semi-finals in Beijing. Unfortunately he succombed to serious injuries and illness in preparation for the London Olympics in 2012. By chance, he was exposed to DNAFit's genetic testing and his information revealed exactly how his training methods had failed him. In a quest to improve another half-second and contest for an Olympic medal, he had transitioned from what his body naturally thrived on to an overly stressful program that caused an Achilles blowout and an 18-month battle with mono.The company is stacked with PhD's in biochemistry, molecular genetics, and nutrigenomics, as well as fellow Olympian Craig Pickering, a Summer Games 100-meter runner and Winter Games bobsledder for the UK. This stuff is the real deal! The algorithms that calculate your results are based on highly respected scientific studies. Your DNA Fit test is a road map to help you choose the optimal training, dietary and lifestyle habits for peak performance. Learn more at DNAFit.com and enjoy the show!
