Summary

Today, we’re diving deep into biohacking your body’s performance—starting with your VO2 max and mitochondria.

We’re sitting down with cellular optimization expert, Rowena Gates, to dive into how the NanoVi device is disrupting the world of biohacking, recovery, and training.

First up, we’re breaking down VO2 max—the secret sauce to longevity. Forget endless hours of cardio. Learn how to hack your VO2 max efficiently and add years to your life, without grinding it out in the gym.

Then, we tackle the hidden world of reactive oxygen species (ROS). These little molecules can be both your friend and foe—boosting energy or fast-tracking aging. We’ll show you how to control them, so you can keep your energy levels high and your body youthful.

Finally, we explore the cutting-edge science of protein folding and exclusion zone water. Sound complicated? Don’t worry, we’ll break it down and show how NanoVi tech supercharges your mitochondria, giving you faster recovery and more endurance, all with minimal effort.

0:00.0	Metabolically we're not functioning well and it shows up as all these different diseases.
0:04.8	If you take excessive antioxidants, you turn off your ability to improve from exercise.
0:09.8	Athletes did not build muscle and did not do as well when they overdid
0:14.4	antioxidants. Your heart races, your skin flushes, you feel like you're gonna throw up
0:19.0	or pass out. You've got to take control of your health and of your biology to make it do what you want.
0:25.1	Low effort, high return, and that's what I'm all about.
0:29.4	The DNA only has one purpose.
0:31.1	They make a device called the Nanowobe that has a direct effect on the
0:34.8	O2-Max. You're listening to the human upgrade with Dave Asprey.
0:39.3	Today we're going to talk about V.O.2 max and before you say, oh my God, I don't want to listen to this.
0:48.6	Chronic cardio is a pain in the ass and is not a good way to raise B.O. 2 Max. The reason we're going to talk about this is it's an important
0:56.7	component of longevity and if you want to live a long time as you read about in
1:01.0	superhuman at least hopefully you read about my big book on longevity
1:04.7	or if he read Sparta Not Harder I go into ways to raise V.O.2. Max in a small amount of time.
1:10.0	Your goal is to have good V.O.2 max, but to not spend six hours a week slogging it out,
1:16.3	doing zone two cardio with a doctor who charges you for longevity work but tells you that it's not possible to
1:24.6	extend human lifespan. So I don't believe over-exercising is a path of longevity but
1:29.2	I do believe VO2 max is an important variable. So the question is, what do we do about that?
1:34.4	That's time efficient.
1:36.4	And doesn't mean that you have to become some sort of endurance athlete
1:40.4	in order to believe you'll live longer
1:42.1	because it's hard to have new hips and knees when near 65 which is what happens if you do it.
