Need superhuman strength to survive the zombie apocalypse? In this podcast, we discuss the concept and the research behind a new form of performance hacking, what’s been dubbed Brain doping, or more formally known as NeuroPriming. This is a procedure scientifically termed transcranial direct current stimulation (tDCS) used to increase plasticity in the brain prior to an activity. This process decreases the amount of input required for neurons to fire, and helps neurons fire together, enabling more rapid strengthening of connections in the brain. When paired with quality training, this results in increased strength, explosiveness, endurance, and muscle memory. Quackery you say? Maybe, let’s take a closer look.

This week’s conversation is with Annabel Anderson, the world #1 female SUP athlete from 2012-2017.Annabel has won the biggest titles in the sport of stand up paddling multiple times – She’s a 5x world champion, has beaten the best men in the sport, and orchestrated the campaign that resulted for equal pay and opportunities for female athletes globally.She is also an elite cyclist & mountain biker, skier, sailor, and surfer.If there was ever anyone who lived up to the moniker of versatile – Annabel Anderson is it.Career ending injuries curtailed a promising ski racing and triathlon career as a young athlete resulting in 11 major surgeries by the age of 24.Versatility, adaptability, and a relentless pursuit for marginal gains became common themes.But maybe the greatest challenge lies yet. This past year, she's had multiple freak accidents resulting in an extremely broken body. The challenge is now to return to normal function and to face what ever the next chapter holds.This conversation cuts right to the center of how Annabel became the person she is today and what’s been behind her success.It’s not everyday we get to hear from someone who’s won as much as Annabel and I think you’ll be interested to learn her views on it:In Annabel’s words:“Winning is really fun the first or second time and then it becomes normal, and then it becomes expected. How do you raise and elevate and deal with the internal pressure and the expectations of others? When winning becomes the one dependent it’s not exactly a great game to be playing. It has a finite end.”I can't wait for you to learn from Annabel. This episode is brought to you by:Athletic Greens: The most complete supplement for a better you.

This week’s conversation is with Dr. Daniel Chao, co-founder of Halo Neuroscience.Dr. Chao’s whole life has been dedicated to understanding the brain and its function — specifically, how electrical stimulation can help the brain more rapidly improve performance, cognitive function, and overall happiness.As some of you are already probably aware, we recently partnered with Halo Neuroscience because I’m bullish on their technology, Halo Sport, which accelerates movement based learning through transcranial direct current stimulation (TDCS).I wanted to have an in-depth conversation with Daniel to learn more about how scientists are using brain stimulation to optimize neurological function and go deeper into what’s possible with this technology.I think this technology is right on the frontier, backed by about 15 years of research and currently used by the best athletes in the world – US Olympic teams, players in the NFL, MLB, NBA, PGA Tour, and more.In a previous Finding Mastery podcast (#045), psychologist Anders Ericsson argued that expert performers acquire their skill through deliberate practice.In deliberate practice, it's a full and deep, possibly nauseatingly deep focus, on whatever skill you are working on learning. This involves minimizing distractions and practicing just outside one's comfort zone.Well what if adding a layer of technology to deliberate practice could accelerate the rate of learning by up to 50%?That’s something we discuss in this conversation and Daniel believes we’re just scratching the surface of what’s possible.As someone who’s always been captivated by the power of the mind, this conversation was such a treat for me so I can’t wait for you to learn from Daniel.

This week’s conversation is with Matt Jacobson, Head of Market Development at Facebook.In this role, he focuses on strategic partnerships that connect people to some of the world's most recognized brands.Facebook may be one of the world’s largest companies today, but it wasn’t when Matt joined as employee number 8 over 13 years ago.He took a leap of faith at the time – he believed in their mission and their founder, Mark Zuckerberg, and began working for no salary, only equity.You could say that bet paid off.What gave Matt the confidence to join Facebook?His intellectual curiosity has been a driving force for him for since he was young. In this conversation, we discuss how that intellectual curiosity has allowed him to stay ahead of the curve, take risks and opened up new opportunities.Matt understands, values, and invests deeply in relationships so it’s no surprise that his philosophy is: “To be the best part of another person’s day.”What a cool thought.This episode is brought to you by:Athletic Greens: The most complete supplement for a better you.

This week’s conversation is with Michael Murphy, co-founder and chairman emeritus of the board of the world famous Esalen Institute, tucked away on the coast of Big Sur, in California.Michael and Esalen have been ground zero for the human potential movement: exploring everything from consciousness, Eastern philosophies meeting Western frameworks, the birth place of Gestalt therapy, to generating scores of mind body interventions.In 1950, Michael was a premed student at Stanford and wandered into a class discussing Eastern and Western philosophies and religions.The miscue changed his life.Soon he was meditating and, after earning a bachelor of arts in psychology and serving in the U.S. Army, he lived on an ashram in India for 18 months.Upon returning to the United States, he and the late Richard Price started Esalen on property the Murphy family owned. Over its 50-plus years of existence, it has been described as a “personal growth think tank.”The organization is focused on personal growth, meditation, massage, ecology, yoga, psychology, spirituality — there was nothing quite like it at the time.Michael is also an author.His work includes: · The Future of the Body: Explorations into the Further Evolution of Human Nature, Golf in the Kingdom· The Life We Are Given: A Long-Term Program for Realizing the Potential of Body, Mind, Heart, and Soul· In the Zone: Transcendent Experience in Sports· An End to Ordinary HistoryIt's a gift to laugh with him and learn from Michael, and I'm honored to share our conversation.This episode is brought to you by:Athletic Greens: The most complete supplement for a better you.

Daniel Chao is a neurotech entrepreneur specializing in devices that improve brain performance He is the co-founder & CEO behind the Halo Sport, a truly revolutionary neurostimulation system built specifically for athletes. It's designed to make your training or practice more efficient by improving your brain's natural plasticity. By applying a mild electric field to the motor cortex, Halo's Neuropriming technology induces a state of "hyperplasticity." When you train in a hyperplastic state, the brain's normal fine-tuning process occurs more rapidly — meaning better results from each practice rep. You can learn more at HaloNeuro.com In this episode of The Biohacking Secrets Show podcast, Daniel and I discuss: What is "neuroplasticity" and why it's the foundation for brain function How to increase electrical conductivity of the brain for greater processing speed and communication Daniel's 3 top strategies for optimal brain health Why Daniel recommends "Human Powered Commutes" and how he implements them in his daily routine Cutting-edge habits for upgraded cognitive function We address the question: Is it really possible to hack sleep?

This week’s episode features Dr. Daniel Chao, with a degree in biochemistry, MS in neuroscience and a medical degree from Stanford University.  He explains the science behind neurostimulation. Dr. Chao has developed HALO Sport which uses proprietary technology called Neuropriming to improve the brain’s response to training and drive accelerated performance gains.   This type of “hyper-learning” allows you to learn and become comfortable with new kinds of movement much more quickly than you can through regular training. In effect, it is able to make training more effective through stimulation of specific parts of the brain. They talk about the science, how the military is undergoing the ultimate testing with the U.S. Naval Special Warfare Development Group and how he is trying to inspire and train not just athletes, but pilots, musicians, surgeons and even stroke victims.  We all want to improve our lives and unlock our brains full potential. Don’t miss this interview.    In order to encourage the Unbeatable Mind and SEALFIT tribe to take advantage of the Halo system, Dr. Chao has made the system available to podcast listeners at a discounted price.

Hope you all had a great 4th of July week/weekend/month/ however long you celebrated it. You know whats even more important to celebrate- another week of the Game of Life of course. I'll be your host today as I am every week, David Nurse. Extremely thankful to all of you out there listening making this possible. I absolutely LOVE learning and growing with you guys.  And do we have a great one this week for you!   Not only is this guest the founder of a revolutionary product in the food industry but he is literally one of the sharpest, most well studied, genuine human beings I have ever met when it comes to healthy diet and lifestyle.  I know that term is very broad - health - but the guest today will break down in depth exactly what it means to live a healthy lifestyle, the steps you can take starting today to implement it into your life, how his product Ample is not just a product but a movement, the sciencey nutritional value in Ample that makes it the NEXT big thing in the food industry.  The guest this week on the Game of Life- Connor Young.  I've been very blessed to get to know Connor and right from the first time we met, I knew there was something special about this guy.  He isn't in it for the money of building a company (already been offered multi million dollar buy outs, and turned them down) He is in it to teach everyone on the face of the planet the truth about nutrition, why 95% of what the public preaches is false, and give you the life hacks of how to become healthy, and basically control your body by simply having the knowledge. Knowledge is power and Connor is packing  a full episode full of it.  Super interesting episode, see you at the end!        Break: Very interesting 1st half of the podcast - as you can tell Connor is a mad scientist when it comes to nutrition.  Ample is not just a product, it's a movement. Think Bulletproof Coffee, the juguranaut Dave Asprey has created.  Ample is going to be the same thing - but for an even bigger market: overall nutrition and healthy lifestyle. Not diet, lifestyle.      SPONSOR: So gotta tell you about what I have been using to train my NBA players. It's literally the cutting edge of muscle memory development and overall self improvement in any aspect.  Halo. Steph Curry uses it, Kevin Love uses it, The North Carolina Tar Heels won a Nat'l Championship using it.  Halo is......  Neuropriming is the process of using electrical stimulation (such as transcranial direct current stimulation, or tDCS) to increase plasticity in the brain prior to an activity. This process decreases the amount of input required for neurons to fire, and helps neurons fire together, enabling more rapid strengthening of connections in the brain. When paired with quality training, this results in increased strength, explosiveness, endurance, and muscle memory Enter the code NURSE for $125 off at Checkout     Back to the podcast 2nd half preview To recap, you learned about the importance of mitochondria and the super human cells we have in our body - the decisions we make by living a healthy lifestyle if we increase or decrease these cells, how twisted and backwards the public perception of heath is, what Connor is doing through Ample to change the mindset, starts a much needed movement, and overall his passion to educate the general public.  In the 2nd half you are going to learn Connor's daily routine, his life hacks for self improvement, quotes he lives by, the future of ample and the food industry all together, and much more. Buckle up, here we go!     Finish Big time thanks to Connor for coming on The Game of Life.  Really encourage you all to try Ample for yourself, you will see how effective it is, not to mention how crazy deliciously tasty, satiating it is.  It is what's coming next and you have the chance to be on the healthy lifestyle train first.
