Dr Mike joins me to provide a framework for the crazy stuff we've all heard about and done....that might even make a big difference in reducing biological age and unlocking peak athletic performance. Some of this these therapies you may already be doing, such as sauna or cold therapy, or Wim Hof breathing or breathholds. But listen in to understand why these interventions work and how to organize them intelligently to enhance your resilience, longevity, and physical potential. Whether you’re an athlete or someone striving to feel younger and stronger, this episode is packed with insights to help you thrive. ----- Rebuild your Physiological Flexibility -- the 4 regulators to train: pH, temperature, CO2 tolerance, and expanded fuels. TEMPERATURE --Cold and heat exposure – embrace the temperature extremes. Turn your body into a machine that thrives under temperature duress. Hot -get hot outside or sauna Cold - cold water immersion, get cold outside, cold showers (see protocol below) pH -- ACIDIC vs. BASIC -- teach your body to handle high intensity exercise ("the burn") as well low-CO2 from hyperventilating Acidic: HIIT -high intensity exercise (Maximum Effort for a short time) Basic: Fast Breathing (supra ventilation) techniques like Wim Hoff and others, lower intensity exercise (Sustainable Effort for a long time) O2 & CO2 REGULATION -- expand your tolerance of higher CO2 with restricted and nasal breathing High CO2 Tolerance: light exercise with nasal breathing, slow/restricted breathing techniques and breath holds Low O2: high altitude training if you have access, shallow breathing for 10 minutes to bring SpO2 down and hold under 90% EXPANDED FUELS -- train your body to burn everything (fat / ketones vs. carbohydrates / lactate), and switch between fuels easily. Intermittent fasting and keto cycling aren’t di...

Youtube.com/physionic NIc's Credentials: Ph.D. in Molecular Medicine / Cell & Molecular Physiology Cell & Molecular Biology Researcher [10 years] M.S. Exercise Physiology Professor of Physiology, Nutrition Episode summary: Nic and I boil the ocean on many topics that needed answers from the best source of scientific research findings. Nic is the best science communicator in the business. Our chat ran a bit long but it will be worth your time. Enjoy! Below are my notes that Nic referred to during our conversation....Nic agreed with some of my thoughts but not all...listen to Nic, not me. Layer #1 – the base layer…stuff to avoid… interventions with the fewest side effects are the stupid things you stop doing….any thoughts on the stuff to avoid? Avoid narrow diets for long periods of time…eat a variety of foods Avoid pollution / toxins….no smoking or any smoke in lungs, avoid heavy metals, plastics, nnEMFs, other? Stop screwing up your circadian rhythm…don’t need stimulants to wake up and drugs to feel sleepy…nighttime lighting, eating late, etc…”coffee is good for you” yeah, but don’t need it Stop drinking poisons…using alcohol (in drinks, in mouthwash) that kills NO production from diet.  Stop sitting all the time … Move throughout the day not just during workouts.  And don’t wear shoes all the time…your feet will thank you Stop being inside all the time …losing out on NIR/UV…too much blue spectrum from “white” LEDs. Get sunlight …open a window, go outside, use a full spectrum lamp if you cannot get out enough Layer #2 – the stuff where the max or min is better (no U shaped curve)…so much of biology is about the sweetspot…not too high or too low…but some things DO fall into the bucket of extremes are best …. any thoughts on these? apoB low as possible? Polyphenols… high as possible?  30 plants every week Fiber …for SCFA, for bowel transit…keep chronic inflammation low Advanced glycation end products (keep blood glucose in normal range & minimize burned foods) Fat isn’t bad…Visceral fat is bad … keeping / building muscle while losing / avoid adding visceral fat Alcohol doesn’t help much…reduces glutathione, impairs sleep, …learn how to relax without drugs Smoke in lungs – smoking, fires, etc Mouth breathing… Minimize mouth breathing….filtering, moisturizing, NO from nasal passages Viral load – exposome? Stimulants – caffeine, nicotine – double edge sword…don’t need it Max Mitochondria / ATP production – energy to power the cells to live and function properly…see layer #3 Layer #3 –a vigorous life for a dynamic physiology…the older athlete does not have the resilience of the young….we have to be more mindful…more purposeful in providing the right stimulus to the body to encourage the adaptations we want.  A steady state is only for dead people…. So, what can we do to create the upward spira...

    #150 | NIR & Deep Red Light to Preserve Eye Health | Glen Jeffrey PhD

    WiseAthletes on FullScript Hey Everyone, welcome to WiseAthletes, your source for discovering how to flourish as an older athlete, and find your path to longevity in sport. I'm your host Joe Lavelle. Today on Episode 150 I am presenting Part 2 in my series on Near Infrared (NIR) light, an important environmental factor that our bodies expect to have and need for our health. But in a narrowly focused effort to improve energy efficiency, our society has shifted our indoor lighting to LEDs which are the least power hungry way to illuminate our homes and offices....but in focusing on visible light, we have lost something very important to our health. This loss is compounded by the increase in time spent indoors (estimated at 90%). Part Two of the series is with Professor Glen Jeffrey PhD, an research biologist, who has been focused on using Deep Red/NIR light to preserve and improve eye health. His lab has also discovered that a short exposure to deep red (670nm) light measurably reduces blood sugar. Deep Red (670 nm)/NIR (700-2,500nm) light acts to increase ATP production and while blue light reduces ATP production.  Low ATP production leads to, in the short term, lower visual acuity, while in the long-term, to photo receptor death (macular degeneration). "Retina has an enormous metabolic rate...things that burn a lot of energy age fast...by the time you are 70 years old, you've lost 25%-30% of the central photo receptors in your eye....even if you are healthy" "Retina is a sports car....goes like crazy, burns vasts amounts of energy, but also has a frailty in it. It needs a lot of looking after." You cannot recover lost photo receptors but you can slow the rate of decline by preserving the function of mitochondria in the retina. And you can improve eye function within 3 hours with as little as 1 minute of exposure to deep red and NIR light (targeted LEDs and the effect lasts for days. Incandescent lights also work (if your government hasn't banned them), and natural light is the best solution (if you live far enough South, or it's the right time of year). The morning is the best time of day for red light to improve mitochondria energy production (it doesn't work after norming!) Overall metabolic health PLUS deep red light ---> helps the mitochondria in the retina to produce a youthful level of energy to continue to function well enough to survive and allow us to see. The scary bit is you and I have already lost a lot of our photo receptors (vision)...we just cannot tell yet. Now is the time to stop it. Meet Glen Jeffrey Professor of Neuroscience, Institute of Ophthalmology, University College London (UCL Profile) Professor Jeffery researches the intricate relationship between light, mitochondria, and health. Mitochondria (the “powerhouses of the cell”) are responsible for producing nearly all of the energy produced in the body. Sufficient exposure to red light / NIR lightwave frequencies can significantly boost mitochondrial function, leading to a range of health benefits, including: Improved cellular energy production Reduced inflammation Accelerated tissue repair Enhanced cognitive function Anti-ageing effects Social Media (Glen and others mentioned) Glen Jeffery (@glen_jeffe5111) — biologist specializing in NIR light effect on the body Bob Fosbury (@BobFosbury) — astrophysicist expert in light (electromagnetic waves in frequencies from UV to IR) and penetration into the human body Scott Zimmerman (@SZimmZoo)— optical e...

    #149 | Near Infrared Light (NIR) is the Missing Puzzle Piece | Scott Zimmerman

    WiseAthlete Supplements Hey Everyone, welcome to WiseAthletes, your source for discovering how to flourish as an older athlete, and find your path to longevity in sport. I'm your host Joe Lavelle. Today on episode 149 I am starting a 2-part series on Near Infrared (NIR) light, an important environmental factor that our bodies expect to have and need for our health. But in a narrowly focused effort to improve energy efficiency, our society has shifted our indoor lighting to LEDs which are the least power hungry way to illuminate our homes and offices....but in focusing on visible light, we have lost something very important to our health. This loss is compounded by the increase in time spent indoors (estimated at 90%). Part One of the series is with Scott Zimmerman, an optical engineer, who has been focused on quantifying the health effects of natural sunlight and designing indoor lighting that reintroduces near-infrared into our homes and offices (that does not run afoul of the Department of Energy). NIR light acts to increase ATP production and while blue light reduces ATP production.  But blocking blue is a half-measure   The real problem is the missing NIR light that you can get in the sun (or better yet, shade) if you would only spent a lot more time outside.   Or, you can fix your indoor lighting. Meet Scott Zimmerman Founder of Silas, Inc., maker of NIRA lighting (https://niralighting.com/). Scott has more than 35 years of experience in the fields of lighting and displays. His innovations and inventions have been used successfully in a wide range of military and commercial products that include night vision displays, liquid crystal display backlighting designs, and lighting fixtures.

    #148 | Adventure for Life | Brian Keane

    Professional Grade Supplements for WiseAthletes Hey Everyone, welcome to WiseAthletes, your source for discovering how to flourish as an older athlete, and finding your path to longevity in sport. I'm your host Joe Lavelle. Socrates warned us to beware the barrenness of a busy life. I understand that all too well these days. If you are like me, you are so busy doing the many things you HAVE to do plus your athletic longevity efforts to live long strong, including getting good sleep, eating a good diet with enough of this and not too much of that, and getting enough high and low intensity exercise … that the days just flash by.  Time is flying by.  Which is the exact opposite of what I am after.  The missing ingredient, I think, is marking time with powerful memories:  and for me powerful memories come of adventures that provide experiences that had such powerful emotions that my brain stored the memories very securely. These experiences mark time and give my life a sense of fullness.  This idea is why invited Brian Keane to the show for episode 148.  You probably know Brian. He is famous for his epic adventures in the Sahara desert and the arctic and more.  In our chat we discuss how to pick adventures and how to up your game to prepare for them while accomplishing your health and fitness goals for life.  I have to say that Brian is amazing and my conversation with Brian has had a big impact on my thinking. My mind is now  focused on returning to my roots as an adventurer. I hope Brian has a powerful effect on you too Who said “Life is either a daring adventure or nothing at all”? Why do Adventures? Powerful memories to mark time for a full life Feel proud of overcoming fears Motivation to up your fitness game, both mentally and physically Find your people; make life friends Bio: Brian Keane Brian has also completed some of the worlds most gruelling endurance challenges, such as six back to back marathons through the Sahara desert, a 230km through the Arctic and multiple ultra-marathons, including a 100 mile ultra-marathon in the desert in Nevada. Brian is the host of one of Ireland and the UK’s top health podcasts, which is regularly featured #1 on the iTunes Health Charts. Brian is a three time best-selling author with The Fitness Mindset, Rewire Your Mindset and The Keane Edge: Mastering the Mindset for Real Lasting Fat Loss. Over the past ten years, Brian has become one of the most recognised faces in the Irish health and fitness industry. He has spoken at major wellness events such as Wellfest Ireland and Mefit Dubai, was a Keynote speaker at Google HQ and has done corporate wellness talks for Allianz Partners, SAP and Acorn Insurance. briankeanefitness.com @brian_keane_fitness - Instagram Links: Joe & Pete's Matterhorn & Mont Blanc trip report 5 14ers on my 40th Birthday with Brian trip report The 2 Joes Bolivia Peak Bagger trip report

    #147 | Solving Inflammaging | Dwayne Jackson PhD

    Professional Grade Supplements for WiseAthletes Hey Everyone, welcome to WiseAthletes, your source for discovering how to flourish as an older athlete, and finding your path to longevity in sport. I'm your host Joe Lavelle. Chronic low grade inflammation underlies all states of sickness and disease associated with aging. Everything that is "healthy" is probably good for chronic inflammation but eating blueberries or taking magnesium or focusing on nasal breathing are just too specific... not fundamental enough. What I want to know is what is the #1 best way to target inflammaging that will make a difference....I can worry about the marginal gains later. Having said that.....what would you ask if you got a chance to talk to a PhD who is a retired academic researcher in multiple areas of human physiology, was a professional athlete in two sports, has been a lifelong bodybuilder, and who is now coaching top level athletes and older high performing older around the world? What would you ask him?   Right....so would I. On episode 147 I took a deep dive into inflammaging with Dr. Dwayne Jackson to understand his approach to stop chronic inflammation from reducing our ability to perform and recover, and improve our health along the way. He did not disappoint. Dr Jackson even shared his secret breakfast feast that I have been eating every morning ever since.  Be ready to take some notes.  This episode will definitely help if you find that you are.... Recovering from exercise more slowly? Cutting calories but still cannot lose that last bit of visceral fat? Eliminating healthy foods because you can't digest them well...feel bloated...get constipated? All right, let's talk to Dr Dwayne Jackson about resolving chronic inflammation. Bristol Stool Chart Monash FODMAP Info & App Bio: Dwayne Jackson, PhD Dr. Dwayne N. Jackson is a dad, athlete, health specialist, medical educator, scientist, and entrepreneur. He has over 12 years of university education in exercise/human physiology, medicine, and nutritional biochemistry. Dr. Jackson holds a PhD in neurovascular physiology and has been educated at some of the top academic institutions in North America including University of Ottawa, the University of Western Ontario, and Yale University School of Medicine. drdwaynejackson.com dwayne@yourvitalscience.com @drdnjackson - Instagram @drdnjackson - Twitter / X Notes: Lower inflammation  gut health :  healthy poops How to get a healthy gut? Don’t major in the minors. Focus on what matters. Highly processed food isn’t ideal but it won’t make a big difference if it is occasional. Mostly eat a whole food mostly plant based diet.    Seed the biome with diversity and fertilize / feed the biome a diverse diet to provide food for the different elements of good bugs. ...
