This was one of the most insane conversations I have ever heard with someone in the health space. For a guy who claims to be the world leading expert in this imaging technique, he literally was at a loss for words about how he would design a randomized controlled trial to test his procedure. In fact, I don’t even think he knows what a randomized controlled trial is…

Do you know your blood pressure? 🫀 Aside from VO2 max, I think blood pressure is THE most important biomarker for health and longevity. It’s strongly related to the health of your heart & brain. And there are few diseases that aren’t tied to elevated blood pressure in some way. I’ve been having fun testing out the CONNEQT Health device to track my own blood pressure. Cool thing is it also gives information about other important heart metrics like central blood pressure and augmentation index.

VO₂ max isn’t just a number. It’s a reflection of your entire physiology working in harmony. It integrates multiple systems: •Lungs to bring in oxygen •Heart and blood vessels to circulate it •Capillaries to deliver it •Mitochondria to convert it into energy In my opinion, this is why VO₂ max is such a powerful predictor of health and longevity. It captures how well your body orchestrates all these systems to produce the energy needed for life and movement.

Do we have enough evidence to support the bold claims about zone 2 training? According to a new review by Kristi Storoschuk, no. She joined me to chat about zone 2's effectiveness for improving mitochondrial capacity, fat oxidation, and fitness in the general population, and why higher intensities might be a more prudent recommendation. Link to the full interview is in the next post.

David Roche wants to "science the sh*t" out of ultrarunning. Last year, he (David Roche) smashed the Leadville 100 record in his first-ever 100-mile race. This year, he's back for more at the Western States 100. I interviewed him following his record-breaking performance about his scientific approach to training and racing. I'm sharing it again here as we approach Western States in just a few days. We chatted about: - Sodium bicarbonate - Downhill running - High-carb fueling - Super shoes - Post-exercise exogenous ketones - Heat training/hot water immersion - Caffeine - Heart rate zones - And more!

“What was the secret, they wanted to know; in a thousand different ways they wanted to know The Secret. And not one of them was prepared, truly prepared to believe that it had not so much to do with chemicals and zippy mental tricks as with that most unprofound and sometimes heart-rending process of removing, molecule by molecule, the very tough rubber that comprised the bottoms of his training shoes. The Trial of Miles; Miles of Trials.”
