Summary

This episode features two incredible guests: Dr. Justin Mager and Kelly Starrett. We all drink wine and get crazy. Dr. Mager is my personal doctor and has helped me with dozens of my crazy experiments, complete with blood testing and next-gen tracking. Kelly Starrett is one of the top Crossfit coaches in the world, and one of my favorite PTs and performance trainers. His clients include Olympic gold medalists, Tour de France cyclists, world and national record holders in Olympic lifting and powerlifting, Crossfit Games medalists, ballet dancers, and elite military personnel. If you're interested in taking your body or mind to the next level, or attempting to become the guy from Limitless, this episode is for you. Enjoy!

This episode is brought to you by Athletic Greens. I get asked all the time what I would take if I

0:05.2

could only take one supplement. The answer is invariably Athletic Greens. I view it as all

0:11.2

in one nutritional insurance. I recommended it, in fact, in the four hour body. This is more than

0:16.0

10 years ago, and I did not get paid to do so. With approximately 75 vitamins, minerals, and

0:21.6

whole food source ingredients, you'd be very hard pressed to find a more nutrient dense and

0:25.8

comprehensive formula on the market. It has multivitamins, multimineral greens complex,

0:31.0

probiotics, and prebiotics for gut health and immunity formula. Digestive enzymes, adaptogens,

0:36.4

and much more. I usually take it once or twice a day just to make sure I've covered my bases

0:41.8

if I miss anything I'm not aware of. Of course, I focus on nutrient dense meals to begin with.

0:47.1

That's the basis, but Athletic Greens makes it easy to get a lot of nutrition when whole foods

0:51.9

aren't readily available. From travel packets, I always have them in my bag when I'm zipping around.

0:57.2

Right now, Athletic Greens is giving my audience a special offer on top of their all-in-one formula,

which is a free vitamin D supplement and five free travel packs with your first subscription

1:08.8

purchase. Many of us are deficient in vitamin D. I found that true for myself, which is usually

1:13.9

produced in our bodies from sun exposure. So adding a vitamin D supplement to your daily routine

1:18.4

is a great option for additional immune support. Support your immunity, gut health, and energy

1:23.6

by visiting AthleticGreens.com slash TFS. You'll receive up to a year's supply of vitamin D

1:30.5

and five free travel packs with your subscription. Again, that's AthleticGreens.com slash TFS,

1:38.3

as in Tim Ferris Show. AthleticGreens.com slash TFS. Greetings, boys and girls. This is Tim Ferris.

1:45.3

Welcome to the Tim Ferris Show. In this episode, we have two incredible guests and friends of mine.

1:49.8

We have Kelly Starrett, who is a performance coach, Athletic Mastermind. He is one of the co-founders

of SF CrossFit, which was one of the first 50 CrossFit affiliates, and his clients include
