Most people are stuck chasing trends that don’t work. In this episode, we break down 5 science-backed health optimization protocols that actually move the needle. From sauna and heat shock proteins to red light therapy, hypoxia training (including blood flow restriction), and breathwork — these are the proven ‘health extracurriculars’ used by top performers to amplify recovery, longevity, and mental clarity.
We’ll unpack:
-
How sauna use triggers cellular repair via heat shock proteins.
-
Why red light therapy supercharges your mitochondria.
-
How hypoxia can boost endurance, stem cell production, and metabolic health.
-
The underestimated power of breathwork for your nervous system.
-
And a bonus deep dive into hyperbaric oxygen therapy.
Forget gimmicks. These are tools that work.
