| 0:00.0 | Hello friends, welcome back to this show. My guest today is Dr. Andrew Hubeman, |
| 0:04.8 | he's a neuroscientist, associate professor at the Stanford University School of Medicine, |
| 0:09.3 | and a podcaster. The mind and the body are intimately linked, trying to improve your mental outcomes |
| 0:15.7 | without thinking of your physical inputs is a losing battle. But the question of which inputs to |
| 0:21.8 | use and when is a huge challenge. Thankfully Dr. Hubeman is one of the best communicators of high |
| 0:28.4 | performance advice on the planet and has a lot of answers. Expect to learn the neuroscience of |
| 0:34.5 | getting over your ex, how David Goggins trained himself to lean into fear, whether dopamine detoxing |
| 0:40.5 | really works, the most important things to avoid doing during your morning routine, just how worried |
| 0:45.8 | we should be about men's testosterone levels dropping, what everyone can learn about endurance |
| 0:50.7 | from Lex Friedman, why Andrew doesn't show his tattoos and much more. This is a conversation |
| 0:58.3 | that I've been looking forward to having for nearly a year now that me and Andrew have been talking, |
| 1:03.4 | and I really think he's filled a position that was desperately needed in the world of science |
| 1:08.1 | communication. We wanted somebody that was more based in evidence and rigor and biology and |
| 1:15.0 | genuine physiology and not just pro science giving us just so stories that perhaps sound plausible |
| 1:21.4 | but don't actually get into the mechanisms or fully understand why sauna exposure is good or cold |
| 1:26.5 | exposure or how to sleep or the supplements that you need on a night time or whether you should be |
| 1:30.7 | timing carbs before and after a workout. All of that together just cutting through all of the |
| 1:35.6 | rubbish and actually getting to the point of what is most effective, how can you achieve peak |
| 1:40.7 | performance and this is why it works. I really appreciate his work, I'm very glad to have had him on, |
| 1:46.6 | and if you're new here don't forget to hit the subscribe button, Jocka Willink is coming on the |
| 1:51.2 | podcast in a week and a half's time, you do not want to miss that, and there is three episodes |
| 1:56.1 | a week and it supports the show and makes me very happy indeed, so navigate to your little podcast |
