What's up, guys? Welcome to the Renegade Strength Show. I am Jay Fruji. And my guest today

0:16.0

is Dan Freed. Dan was struggling in school, like a lot of us. He dropped out of high school,

0:23.0

went to work at a sandwich shop 10 years later. He scores in the 99th percentile on the

0:27.4

GMAT and earned a master's degree from Yale. And today he is going to talk about how to

0:35.2

get your brain optimized, firing on all cylinders, just really, really, really cranking that cognitive

0:42.8

function up, which we could all use. I could definitely use. So I'm listening intently

0:46.6

to every word Dan's saying. We're going to talk a lot about Neutropics and we are sponsored

0:51.2

by Thesis. So if you don't know what Neutropics are, they're nutrients that are proving

chemistry is different, just like, you know, everything else about you is different. We're

1:35.0

all unique. So that's where Thesis really comes in is, and it makes a huge difference

1:39.6

because they're the first personalized Neutropics company in the world. All their formulas

1:44.7

have different high quality, Neutropic ingredients and different doses optimized for things like

1:49.3

motivation, energy, and creativity. They built a recommendation engine that uses data

1:53.8

to predict which nutrients you should be taking in the right combinations and doses

1:58.4

for your unique brain chemistry. Thesis makes finding the right Neutropics fast and easy.

2:04.2

They do the research for you, keeping in mind how different all our brains are. So if you
