Know Your Physio

Andrés Preschel

Knowing your physiology, the very science that makes you who you are, is the best thing you can do to optimize your health, bolster your performance, look and feel your best, and enjoy a longer and more fulfilling lifespan. My dedication to this field derives from a selfish place born out of necessity before it became the bright, selfless passion I'm known for. It was through my health journey (mainly battling ADD and ten years of Adderall dependency plus related side effects) and love for the scientific method that I found my way. Eventually, with the right knowledge and mentorship, I stumbled upon an enhanced state of awareness between mind, body, and spirit where healthy intentions met actionable steps and lasting, positive lifestyle change. Today I call this "physiological intuition," and to me, it's a right that every human being deserves to thrive with, without having to battle themselves or pursue a degree to discover it. Every day I spend on this planet, I get to connect with world-leading experts on my podcast and learn more of the substance I wish I could have gotten my hands on earlier, for YOU to apply and enjoy total mind and body fitness, personal mastery, and self-actualization! The more you #KnowYourPhysio… Enjoy the show!

    Andrew Herr: Solving Jet Lag with Science, Inflammation, Sleep, and Smarter Travel

    I sat down with Andrew Herr to unpack what flying really does to your body and how to fix it with simple, science-based steps. Andrew has coached fighter pilots, Navy SEALs, and busy executives, and he built a travel system that treats jet lag like a solvable problem, not a life sentence. We break down why pressure changes and lower oxygen in the cabin drive inflammation, why that brain fog and puffy feeling show up even on short hops, and how circadian rhythm, light, and meal timing fit into the picture. We get into domestic versus international travel, when you only need a “mini” protocol, and when you need the full reset. You will hear exactly how to set up sleep the first night, when to use light or block it, how to time magnesium, omega-3s, and melatonin, why small protein-first meals beat grazing on junk, and why fasting can help some people but not everyone. You will also learn how to read your own signals, why some frequent fliers think they are fine when they are not, and how to test whether something actually helps you. If you want to land clear-headed, sleep that first night, and feel like yourself again, this episode gives you a plan you can run on your very next trip.

  2. R. Blank: Understanding EMF, Its Impact on Health, and How to Protect Yourself From It.

    17 OCT.

    R. Blank: Understanding EMF, Its Impact on Health, and How to Protect Yourself From It.

    I sat down with R. Blank, CEO of Shield Your Body and author of Empowered, to cut through the EMF noise with clear science and practical steps. If you’ve ever wondered what EMF actually is, what’s hype vs. real risk, and how to reduce exposure without abandoning modern tech, this conversation is for you. R. breaks down ionizing vs. non-ionizing radiation, why your cell phone is the #1 avoidable source, and the “distance × time” rule that drives smarter habits. We get tactical: building a low-EMF bedroom (no phones, battery-powered alarm clocks, low-blue rechargeable lamps), why a meter beats guesswork, when to de-energize a circuit at night, safer audio (air-tubes over AirPods), and how to configure your phone radios (airplane mode, Wi-Fi/Bluetooth off when you don’t need them). We also compare shielding products vs. Faraday gear, when apparel makes sense (travel and high-density environments), and how to think about privacy tools like Faraday wallets and laptop sleeves. If you want data-backed, low-friction ways to protect sleep, focus, and long-term health without quitting your devices, you’ll love this one. You’ll walk away with a simple rule (“stop carrying your phone in your pocket”), a bedroom checklist, and a clearer map for what to change today and what, if anything, to buy later.

  3. How to Stop Falling for Illusions (Video Games, Dating Apps, Doom-scrolling, Weed, Alcohol)

    20 SEPT.

    How to Stop Falling for Illusions (Video Games, Dating Apps, Doom-scrolling, Weed, Alcohol)

    You’re surrounded by illusions that feel good now but rob you later, p*** as the illusion of intimacy, video games as the illusion of achievement, processed food as the illusion of nourishment, dating apps as the illusion of choice, doom-scrolling as the illusion of connection, weed as the illusion of peace, alcohol as the illusion of confidence, and gambling as the illusion of success. In this episode, I not only name these traps and reveal how they pacify your drive and blur your path to fulfillment. I’ll also show you what to do about them, how to recognize them for what they are, and how to take back control when they show up in your life.  I’m not speaking from a pedestal. I spent a decade dependent on Adderall, fell into compulsive online habits, and learned the hard way that comfort isn’t the cure. I share my story and the science that helped me rebuild, how turning toward pain, not away from it, forged discipline, resilience, and a more meaningful life. You’ll leave with a simple lens: when a craving hits, ask, “What deep, meaningful work am I avoiding right now?” Then we use that signal to take one honest step today. If you’re ready to trade sedation for purpose and choose the difficult thing on purpose, press play. Support the show

    Dr. Layne Norton, PhD: How to Judge Studies, Train Smarter, and Stick to It

    I sat down with Dr. Layne Norton, PhD, one of the most respected names in evidence-based fitness and nutrition, to cut through the noise that dominates our feeds. If you’ve ever been confused by conflicting advice from influencers, or wondered how to separate hype from science, this conversation is for you. Layne walks us through how to actually read research, spot red flags, and apply the right evidence to your own health and performance. We talk about adherence, why consistency beats hacks, how to think about n=1 experimentation, and why muscle is way more than just something that moves your body—it’s one of the most powerful protectors of long-term health. If you want to stop guessing and start making decisions that are backed by data (and not just feelings), you’ll love this episode. Listen in, and you’ll walk away with a practical blueprint for training smarter, fueling better, and staying resilient—without falling for the myths.

    Dave Pascoe: How I Slowed My Aging with Labs, AI & Strategy

    I’m thrilled to bring you Dave Pascoe—a former network security architect turned longevity athlete and biohacker—whose measured approach to anti‑aging is both rigorous and refreshingly practical. We trace Dave’s journey from teenage hacker to data‑driven health optimizer, the telomere wake‑up call that shifted his mindset, and how he now tracks biological age with epigenetic testing (including the DunedinPACE “pace of aging” algorithm popularized by TrueDiagnostic). We also unpack the Rejuvenation Olympics—what the leaderboard actually measures and how to think about it without the hype. If you’ve heard buzzwords like “pace of aging” and wondered what they really mean, we translate them into plain English here.  From there we get tactical: why Dave cut out ultra‑processed foods (we touch on the NOVA classification so you can spot them fast), how he reframed running and training, and why VO₂ max is one of the strongest fitness predictors of longevity. We compare sprint work vs. endurance for healthspan, dive into SHBG and testosterone (and why carbs, stress, and training load matter), and talk sleep, meditation, and the often‑ignored lymphatic system—including why movement is non‑negotiable because your lymph relies on muscle contraction to flow. Expect clear takeaways you can apply this week: food upgrades, training levers, recovery basics, and lab markers that actually move the needle.  Finally, we open the hood on Dave’s AI‑driven supplement schedule—how he used large language models to de‑conflict ~100+ ingredients into practical AM/PM dosing, and why he’s building a personal GPT that ingests labs, wearables, and genetics for personalized protocols. We also level‑set on gene‑therapy hype, “exercise in a pill,” and influencer blueprints versus fundamentals. The mantra we land on is simple: “Comfort is good, capability is better.” Listen in for the frameworks, the mistakes to avoid, and a preview of Part 2, where we’ll walk through Dave’s public playbook so you can build your own.  🎯 Apply for Health Optimization Coaching 🔗 https://coaching.knowyourphysio.org/video1729359042808 Topics Covered: [00:09:13] Biohacking the human body.

  7. I made it...

    6 AOÛT

    I made it...

    Looking back, my life used to feel like a constant uphill battle—dealing with ADHD, relying on heavy meds just to function, and barely scraping by in school. I was skinny, anxious, disconnected from who I really was. But everything changed the summer I stumbled into a neuroscience program at the University of Miami. Learning about neuroplasticity and realizing I could literally rewire my brain was a turning point. That summer, I quit Adderall cold turkey, hit the gym for the first time, and started building real momentum through lifestyle change. It was raw, it was hard—but it was mine. Fast forward, and that same spark led me to discover a passion for physiology, nutrition, and performance that has shaped everything since. I found mentors, built companies, coached high performers, and leaned into my purpose of helping others optimize their lives from the inside out. I started my podcast, not just to teach, but to learn—and to face one of my biggest fears: public speaking. And man, the growth that came from that? It’s been life-changing. I built my life around my values—freedom, authenticity, service—and I’ve helped hundreds of others do the same. Now, sitting here in my dream home in Miami Beach, I can honestly say: I made it. And I say that with deep gratitude, not arrogance. Not because I have it all figured out, but because I stayed true—said no when I needed to, worked my ass off, and built a life around what really matters. I want this episode to be proof that with discipline, faith, and alignment, it’s possible to rewrite your story. And if I can inspire even one person to believe in their own transformation, then this whole journey has been worth it. 🎯 Apply for Health Optimization Coaching 🔗 https://coaching.knowyourphysio.org/video1729359042808 Topics Covered: [00:00:32] Neuroplasticity and personal transformation.

  8. Dr. Chris Lee on Breaking Emotional Cycles, Healing Trauma, and Becoming Unshakable

    Dr. Chris Lee on Breaking Emotional Cycles, Healing Trauma, and Becoming Unshakable

    Welcome back to another episode of Know Your Physio—the podcast where we dive deep into the science of human potential and self-mastery. Today, I’m beyond excited to introduce a guest who truly embodies resilience and what it means to live with purpose: Dr. Chris Lee. Dr. Chris Lee is not only a neuroscientist but also an entrepreneur and, most importantly, a compassionate human being whose journey has been shaped by immense personal challenges. He’s navigated the profound loss of his father, taken on the responsibility of being a single parent, and powered through the demanding grind of earning his doctorate. Through it all, Chris has developed an unparalleled understanding of the human nervous system and the true art of self-regulation. In this episode, we dive into Chris’s personal “why”—a journey that started with heartache but has evolved into a beautiful, transformative philosophy. Chris shares his foundational mantra: “If the flower doesn’t bloom, you don’t blame the flower.” This mindset shift helped him reframe pain, purpose, and the environments that either limit or liberate us. It’s a powerful way to look at adversity—not as something to avoid, but as the very fuel for growth. We talk about the stark difference between being driven by suffering versus being inspired by purpose. High performers, as Chris explains, often unknowingly uncover what truly regulates them and what doesn’t. We also explore the science of emotional intelligence, the importance of co-regulation in relationships, and how to thrive in an overstimulated world through "low-stimulation" habits. This conversation is raw, real, and packed with insights that will challenge your understanding of success. It’s an invitation to embrace discomfort, redefine what “winning” really means, and discover the “unf*ckable” version of yourself that emerges when you do the inner work. Trust me—you don't want to miss this one. 🎯 Apply for Health Optimization Coaching 🔗 https://coaching.knowyourphysio.org/video1729359042808 Topics Covered: [00:02:29] Neuroscience and self-regulation journey.
