What's going on family? Welcome to another episode of the Genius Life. I'm your host Max

life, which is great because I freaking love coffee, although I don't always love the way that it

makes me feel. But I've decided to reframe our relationship with it and use it more deliberately,

particularly in the pre-workout setting and only the minimal effect of dose, so just a small

amount of caffeine and not every single day, so and not multiple times a day. So that's a much
