  1. Is VO2 Max Overrated? The Truth About This Popular Fitness Test

    Is VO2 Max Overrated? The Truth About This Popular Fitness Test

    Let’s talk about VO2 max—a laboratory cardiovascular performance test that began rising to prominence in the mainstream medical, fitness, and biohacking communities in the 2010’s as an excellent way to measure general cardiovascular health, disease risk, and longevity potential. It’s great to see the integration of performance-oriented metrics into wellness and medicine, and in this episode, I tell you all about VO2 max, its ability to predict your longevity, why some say it’s a superior way of predicting longevity, as well as why it can, in some ways, be overrated. In this episode, I discuss all aspects of the VO2 max test—what it is, what it means, how to train for it, and how it rose to prominence, despite being a key performance metric for endurance athletes to predict competitive potential for decades. I explain how the VO2 max test works (by measuring your amount of oxygen usage as the test gets increasingly harder), why most cardiologists are now touting VO2 max as superior to anything found in bloodwork, EKGs, and other routine screenings, the insights about your health that you can learn from taking the test, why the VO2 max test can be overrated, why the performance metric Running Economy is considered a better predictor of competitive success than VO2 max in elite running circles, the reason why VO2 max scores vary between men and women, and more!   LINKS: Brad Kearns.com B.rad’s Superfruits B.rad’s Shopping Page  B.rad’s Whey Protein Superfuel   We appreciate all feedback, and questions for Q&A shows, emailed to podcast@bradventures.com.

    Tania Teschke: The Benefits Of Ancestral Cuisine, Slow Food Culture, And Natural Skin Care Products

    Please welcome my good friend, Tania Teschke back to the show! Tania is the author of the book Bordeaux Kitchen, which by many accounts is the best book ever written in the ancestral health scene—it is an absolute encyclopedia of healthy living, French food, wine, and culture. She has studied under some of the finest chefs and sommeliers and brings you the full scoop in this episode with all kinds of tips about nutrition and health, including a discussion about the integral role animal organs have played in not just French cuisine, but in many different cuisines around the world. This show will inspire you to bring organ meats back to your routine dietary patterns, and we talk about the value of the cultural aspect of food in France, as well as the importance of being mindful of what you put on your skin and Tania’s wonderful product line, The Bordeaux Kitchen. I’ve been using her lip balm and deodorant for the last few years and they’re all fantastic. When you think of all the offensive chemicals in mainstream beauty and body products (especially the ones that contain endocrine disrupting chemicals), it’s such a relief to know that there are skincare and cosmetic products formulated with clean ingredients, that work well, and are easily available on Etsy.    LINKS: Brad Kearns.com B.rad’s Superfruits B.rad’s Shopping Page  B.rad’s Whey Protein Superfuel BordeauxKitchen.com (Book) The Bordeaux Kitchen: An Immersion into French Food and Wine, Inspired by Ancestral Traditions   We appreciate all feedback, and questions for Q&A shows, emailed to podcast@bradventures.com.

    Susan “The Sexpert” Bratton: How To Regain Lost Relationship Intimacy

    Susan Bratton, the sex expert, is back for this episode and she brings the heat as usual. Please listen to our first show where we talked about all things sexuality and received her many tips and tricks and exciting stories getting you fired up to improve your sex life. But in show number two, I thought we would start with the idea that a lot of couples are less than their best in this category these days. Susan took that ball and ran with it and rattled off 5 main reasons why sexual intimacy could be faltering in your love relationship, and you will hear her share three awesome tips to help you revive your sex life and the best way to regain lost intimacy in your relationship. Be sure to also check out all the free course material, downloads, and videos Susan has available on her website—she really does give quite a bit to the community, has helped so many people, and has become a good friend of mine. She really is so caring and interested in helping people improve their relationship. Susan Bratton is an author, award-winning speaker, and serial entrepreneur who teaches passionate lovemaking techniques to her fans around the world. She has authored and published 20 books, including Relationship Magic, The Passion Patch (which she mentioned during the show), and 30 Romantic Tricks That Work Like Magic. She also has her international number one Amazon bestseller, Sexual Soulmates: The Six Essentials for Connected Sex. You will hear a ton of practical tips and information during this show, as well as a really nice big picture perspective about why relationships might fall off their game a little bit, and most importantly, how to get it back quickly. As Susan explains, there is great research showing that when you have a healthy sex life, you live longer, you have better immune function, you have better anti-cancer protection, you have more longevity, you have more energy, you have better sexual hormone health—all things that really do contribute to a better life. Enjoy listening to this show and make it a top priority to take note of all the suggestions and recommendations that she offers up.   TIMESTAMPS: Many couples can use some advice to enhance their sex life.  This is the podcast to give some tips. [00:52] This is a stressful world we live in, and sometimes there are frustrations outside the bedroom that prevent couples from getting inside the bedroom. [06:30] Low energy is a big factor. [11:32] Much of what we see in the movies, TV, and in books is based on men’s arousal patterns. [14:04] Make a commitment to have a better sex life. You will live longer. [19:41] It is normal for women to take longer to get aroused. [23:17] Learn how to hold each other and touch each other. [28:25] Men tend to overestimate their skills because the testosterone makes them very confident. [31:19] Susan offers a 5-step process that couples can do themselves. [33:06] Be more fun to have sex with. Go to sexlifebucketlist.com. [40:13] Orgasmic intercourse is a learned skill.

    Brad Kearns: Analyzing Shelby Houlihan Insights About Aerobic Base and Anaerobic Threshold Training

    In this show, I break down and analyze comments from my recent interview with one of the greatest female middle distance runners in the world, the American record holder Shelby Houlihan. It was a pleasure to drive up to Flagstaff, Arizona to meet Shelby at her high altitude training camp as she prepares for her long awaited comeback after a ridiculous four year suspension for a very questionable doping violation. In our interview, which you can listen to here (or click below under "links"), we talked about the tragedy she experienced when she had her career taken from her right in the middle of her prime, right as she was getting ready for the Olympics—then having to sit for four years.  You will learn about the nuances of how that whole incident went down and the injustice of the anti-doping system in the world of elite sports. Of course we have to keep these sports clean, but can there be room for some imperfections and some victims too? You will also hear about the many aspects of what it's like to be an elite athlete, how Shelby expanded her horizons and her competitive disposition to try to become a more well-balanced person by getting her master's degree in sports psychology, and much more.  Shelby said such amazing, thoughtful comments during the interview, and I think so many of her comments are truly profound insights that will help you as you navigate the very difficult challenge of designing an optimal training program that balances stress and rest (and also keeping your ego in check) as you pursue ambitious competitive goals. These big picture insights are especially helpful now, as the biohacking scene is currently getting a little out of hand—focusing on a regimented, high-tech, glossy, glitzy approach towards pursuing longevity, instead of just covering the basics—and the Blue Zones movement is getting torched by The New York Times’ revelation of the manipulation behind their messaging and how they drew inaccurate conclusions from the data they gathered. It all comes down to basics and consistency, so this show will highlight important insights about Shelby’s approach, from details of her weekly training patterns to how she is deliberate about what she does to unwind and rest during the off competitive season, and how she generally balances the physiological impact training has on her body.   TIMESTAMPS: Biohacking is getting out of hand these days. [04:04] The Blue Zone studies are now being questioned. It looks like it has been manipulated to promote a plant-based diet. [05:15] It is refreshing to hear that Shelby deliberately takes the time to unwind and chill out rather that becoming a cyborg robot in pursuit of improving. [10:59] Most champion runners do their training in a more relaxed way, not obsessed with biohacking behavior. It is so important to have balance in your life. [13:11] Developing that aerobic system so that the faster paced runs can become less stressful and less destructive is the only path to success.  [17:51] Shelby trains three days a week then on the off days, she just runs.  Her eight-mile runs are at an eight-minute pace. [21:13] If you go faster than your anaerobic threshold, your body would start to accumulate lactate faster than you can remove it. [23:12] Shelby has complete trust in her coach who allows for input and flexibility on the athlete’s side. [36:30] A lot of people are talking about the super spikes and how they are distorting world records. [40:47] Brad talks about Shelby’s problem with the accusation of doping. Was she cheating? [41:49] You can’t roll back technological advancements in sport equipment. [45:34] The incentive to cheat due to economic desperation is a real problem in elite international sport.

    Brad Kearns: How To Avoid Todays Epidemic Decline In Testosterone Levels - 4 Hot Tips

    This breather show is about the epidemic and steady decline in the average level of testosterone in today's male compared to years and decades past, and what you can do if you want to avoid tanking your testosterone levels. You will learn about a variety of factors that influence testosterone, like the health of your relationship, certain kinds of exercise, and even engaging in anger, resentment, arguing, and nitpicking. You’ll also hear some truly brilliant, life-changing advice from John Gray and learn about the importance of doing certain testosterone boosting activities.   TIMESTAMPS: There is an epidemic in a steady decline in the average level of testosterone in today’s male. [00:38] Much of the loss is directly tied to unhealthy living as well as to a high stress level. [03:18] Testosterone is not only what we think of as an aggression or high-performance hormone, it is a social status hormone as well. [06:29] Females must have an appropriate level of testosterone in order to function at her best as well. [09:36] There is a big distinction between visceral fat and subcutaneous fat. [10:44] There is a huge difference between exercising the right way and exercising in a manner that is too stressful. [14:26] Research is showing several things to avoid in order to focus on testosterone levels.  One is to get away from plastics and chemicals that go into your food or your body. Anything with a scent contains chemicals is offensive to the estrogen in your body. [16:58] Sleep, recovery, rest, and downtime are so very important. [20:45] Junk food is one of the driving forces of this global obesity epidemic. Especially the processed seed oils do harm. [24:57] We have to have a healthy, loving, romantic relationship to be at our best hormonally. [29:12] The wrong kinds of exercise can tank your hormones.

    28 THG 1

    Olympian Shelby Houlihan On Elite Training, Resiliency, Mindset, and Her 2025 Comeback

    Welcome to this special episode of the B.rad podcast, where Brad Kearns visits American record holding middle distance runner Shelby Houlihan at her high-altitude training camp in Flagstaff, AZ.  This is an incredibly powerful and in-depth discussion about all aspects of what it's like to compete in elite level sport. Shelby has just completed her four-year layoff from a highly unjust and controversial doping suspension and is returning to competition as the 2025 US and world indoor season approaches. This wide-ranging discussion is a master class on developing the ideal perspective and mindset of a champion athlete. Shelby has been through hell like few other athletes—her livelihood and status in elite sport taken away in an instant with the four-year suspension. Please watch our first interview where we discuss the details of her doping violation and her legal case and the incredible injustice and lack of due process that athletes face if they test positive. We recap it a bit in this show, and you’ll learn about the nuanced dynamics of doping in high level sports, how the system works, and how we might do things better and more fairly. You learn about how a champion athlete has to cultivate a singular focus and narrow mindset but how this can lead to disappointment and frustration when you attach too much of your self esteem to results. its double edge sword but we talk about the sweet spot where you can still be a vicious competitor but also a well-balanced person. You learn about how Shelby spent her off time still training at a high level, doing some incredible time trials, getting a masters in sports psych, and making a great effort to broaden her perspective about life and sport. You learn about the business of T&F, a somewhat unpleasant topic when you realize how even the greatest athletes have very tenuous career prospects. This is a woman who has dedicated her life to elite sport and it was an honor to see such amazing resilience and maturity as she tells her incredible story. You don't have to be a track fan to deeply appreciate this interview.  Please listen to the entire riveting two hours as we get the lowdown from someone who is about to go wild on the track and get some more records and titles.    TIMESTAMPS: Shelby Houlihan has quite a story to tell about her experience with the anti-doping system. [02:02] After her four-year suspension, Shelby is looking forward to coming back into competition, although she is feeling frustrated. [05:15] For her comeback she still doesn’t want to use super spikes. She wants to run fast naturally not faster because of her shoes. [08:20] There are people, the haters, that don’t believe Shelby’s story. [14:06] Track and Field journalism field is rather small. Have they treated Shelby fairly? [18:09] Even when disqualified, Shelby ran because it was her identity. [20:57] Teaching sports psychology is a good place for her with all her experience. [25:52] A lot of athletes have a hard time with retirement….trying to figure out who they are without competition. [29:57] Has Shelby been able to cheer her friends on even though she, herself, isn’t running? [32:43] The biggest problem with elite athletes is over-training. [38:20] There are many injured athletes that return to competition too soon. If you rush it, you’re going to pay later. [54:48] Upon Shelby’s suspension, she lost her sponsors. [57:53] Unfortunately, some other elite athletes were not supportive of Shelby. Most athletes don’t understand what happens with the testing system. [01:02:11] Many athletes are doping and fans like to watch the sports. [01:08:51] How is Shelby going to handle the comeback? She hopes it will still be fun. [01:12:35] How will the crowd receive her? [01:16:24] How did she handle the fact that she knew she was clean, but had accept the suspension? [01:18:58] How is the team environment with her comeback? [01:22:01] Why are shoe sponsors so important over other products? [01:31:24] The Beer Mile World Championship was a fun challenge. [01:31:41] How much importance does she put on breaking her records? How does aging effect the athlete? [01:42:54] What does Shelby’s training week look like?

    21 THG 1

    B.rad Highlights #3: Relationship Tips and Assignments From John Gray

    Once again, it is time for a refresher course inspired by the teaching of four-time podcast guest John Gray, the #1 bestselling relationship author of all-time with his Men are from Mars, Women are from Venus franchise. In this highlight episode, you will hear life-changing advice and insights into relationship health, including the specific “assignments” John Gray has designated for men and women and why. You will learn about the importance of being a “Kung Fu Master”, why men should never speak when they have a negative emotional charge, and the #1 danger women face today. I also include tips from author David Deida, talk about the effects of complaining or nitpicking and what happens when you instead express everything as a preference, and how to overcome emotionally fragile reactions. You will also learn what causes arguments to escalate, why women just need to vent, what kills the passion in a relationship, what causes women to end up anxious and depressed, and more details about the different fundamental biological drives and hormonal underpinnings that influence our behavior and wants and needs.    TIMESTAMPS: After the first two highlight podcasts, Brad looks at relationship insights. [01:04] The male’s relationship assignment is to be a kung fu master by remaining calm, cool and collected. [02:43] The female needs to vent, to talk out her problems, concerns, challenges, and complaints. [09:55] Leave the petty grievances alone.  Decide what is really important. [14:59] The female should never complain and nitpick your male partner. [18:11] You are responsible for your own happiness. You cannot depend on another person to make you happy. [20:10] The evolving culture and evolving relationship roles lead to challenges, mainly with the female. [23:23] Another dynamic is the increased isolation of society. [26:16] John Gray’s anatomy of an argument: Female feels unhappy and starts to feel disconnected.

    Brad Kearns: The Benefits Of Foot Functionality, Minimalist Shoes, And A Barefoot Inspired Lifestyle

    I want to talk about the benefits of Peluva, five toe minimalist shoes, and a barefoot inspired lifestyle overall. A commercial recording, perhaps, but we are committed to promoting foot functionality and overcoming this disastrous slide into foot atrophy and dysfunction—that is the essence of a modern lifestyle and a life lived in elevated, restrictive shoes. If we’re going to talk about ancestral health and getting back to basics, eating the right food, getting your sunshine and getting your exercise, we also have to look after our feet. When we encase them in restrictive shoes, we develop lifelong bad habits, dysfunction, weakness, and atrophy—no wonder we have these ridiculous statistics, such as the 78% of Americans who complain of chronic foot pain. “Solutions” to their chronic foot pain range from orthotics to prescription medication to surgery. And did you know that Medicare covers only two pairs of shoes per year for elderly Americans that are in the Medicare system? Isn’t that kind of ridiculous? Of all the things that your standardized, nationalized healthcare policy should cover, they threw in a couple pairs of orthopedic shoes because everyone, of course, is going to experience foot problems and foot pain.  But there is a way to escape from this disastrous decline, and that is to rebuild your foot functionality very carefully by transitioning over to a more barefoot inspired lifestyle. In this episode, I share how to get started, why you want to go barefoot as much as possible (and how do it safely!), why your big toe must be allowed to operate independently from the other toes and in multiple planes of motion, why a truly barefoot style shoe must have a zero drop sole, what experts have deemed as the single most destructive feature in the modern shoe, and much more!   TIMESTAMPS: What happens to your feet in the modern day restrictive padded athletic shoe? [00:56] You need to rebuild your foot functionality very carefully. [02:21] You must have the articulated five toes. [03:16] It is very important how and where your heel hits the ground in the middle of your stride.  [04:34] The Peluva shoe that was designed for basically everyday use has 9 millimeters of protective cushioning. [12:39] Just moving in everyday life is the number one fitness objective. [14:43] Ground feel of the shoe means that with every foot strike, the neurons in your feet send a message to your central system. [20:06] If you took off your shoes now and started running on a hard surface, you would probably exhibit the most graceful midfoot landing. [25:52] The best part of wearing the Peluva shoes is that your feet achieve their full range of motion and functionality. [27:57] The big toe initiating the takeoff portion of the stride is the key trigger for glute activation in the body. [32:32] The big toe needs to operate independently through multiple planes of motion.
