The Biohacking Trainer

Luke Czaplewski

This podcast aims to help fitness professionals and fitness enthusiasts, or anyone who would like to become the best version of themselves, learn how to bridge the gap with biohacking and pairing it with resistance training. With the information we will be providing with this podcast I hope to help fitness professionals learn to take more of a holistic approach with their training sessions and not only create a personalized approach to their clients fitness but also a personalized approach to their clients overall wellness. This podcast is for fitness professionals, however it is certainly for anyone that is a health and wellness enthusiast, or for the fellow biohacker.

    Red Light Therapy Ep. 3

    Red Light Therapy Explained: Benefits, Wavelengths, and How to Use It for Recovery, Skin, and Brain Health In this episode of the Biohacking Trainer Podcast, host Luke Czaplewski explains red light therapy (photobiomodulation), including the red (around 660 nm) and near-infrared (about 800–880 nm) wavelengths and how they penetrate exposed skin to reach mitochondria. He describes how light stimulates mitochondrial chromophores to increase ATP production and support cellular energy. The episode covers potential benefits such as improved workout recovery, wound and scar healing support, visual acuity improvement, and hair growth support for thinning hair. Luke outlines practical usage guidance, emphasizing sessions around 20 minutes due to diminishing returns beyond that, and shares ways to target specific sore areas or split time across the body. He also discusses combining red light therapy with halo therapy at Ageless Fitness (using a booth with an assault bike), describing halo therapy as salt-based respiratory support with antibacterial and anti-inflammatory properties that may enhance lung function and athletic outcomes. Additional applications mentioned include aesthetic masks for collagen and elastin support, and cognitive-focused devices like helmets and intranasal tubes (including references to ~810 nm and ~1070 nm) aimed at reducing inflammation around the brain and supporting brain activity, with possible use in clinics for dementia or Alzheimer’s symptom support. He notes red light therapy can be used before, during, or after training and recommends consulting a healthcare provider before starting. 00:00 Welcome In: Your New Biohacking Obsession 00:15 Today’s Topic: Red Light Therapy (Photobiomodulation) 00:37 How It Works: Wavelengths, Skin Exposure & Mitochondria 01:44 The Science Bit: Chromophores and ATP Energy Production 02:15 Key Benefits: Recovery, Wound Healing, Vision & Hair Support 03:27 How Long to Use It: The 20-Minute Sweet Spot 04:06 Real-World Use: Workouts + Halo Therapy Combo Explained 05:06 Targeted Recovery Protocols: Panels, Booths & Body-Splitting Tips 06:27 Beyond Muscles: Skin, Collagen Masks & Brain/Helmet Devices 07:28 Wrap-Up: When to Use It, Safety Check & Subscribe

    What Is Biohacking? Data-Driven Fitness, Recovery, and Better Results | Biohacking Trainer Podcast In this episode of the Biohacking Trainer Podcast, host Luke Czaplewski explains what biohacking is and how it uses science, technology, and data to optimize the body and mind through lifestyle changes (sleep and diet tracking, grounding) and advanced tools (wearables, continuous glucose monitors, genetic testing, and recovery therapies). He focuses on how personal trainers can use biohacking for data-driven personalization, real-time program adjustments, and improved client engagement and accountability using metrics like HRV, sleep quality, and recovery trends, with examples such as adjusting training intensity and choosing recovery options like red light therapy or sauna instead of cold exposure when HRV is low. Luke also discusses tools for tracking progress, including InBody and other body composition scans, and outlines recovery and performance modalities such as PEMF mats, cryotherapy, IV drips, and shockwave treatments. He emphasizes biohacking as a mindset of curiosity and experimentation, highlights metabolic testing to determine caloric and macronutrient needs, and previews next week’s episode on red light therapy. 00:00 Welcome and Setup 00:39 What Is Biohacking 01:19 Why It Matters in Fitness 03:14 Accountability and Faster Results 05:29 How Trainers Use Biohacking 07:09 The Biohacking Mindset 07:41 Nutrition and Metabolic Testing 09:47 Final Thoughts and Next Episode
