Is Your Heart Telling You You’re Burning Out?

Did you know that your heart's rhythm offers clues about your resilience? In this episode of RAADCast, Don Moxley breaks down heart rate variability as the ultimate longevity metric—and how purpose, breathing, sleep, and smart training can increase your resilience, recovery, and healthspan.

In this episode of RAADCast, Don Moxley takes us deep into the science of resilience. A former elite wrestling coach turned heart rate variability pioneer, he shares the story of how tracking this metric helped transform struggling athletes into champions. Don explains how heart rate variability is more than just a data point—it’s a real-time window into how well your nervous system is adapting to life. We learn how resilience is built not through pushing harder, but through intentional recovery, sleep quality, breathing, and purpose.

Don also explains how heart rate variability readings can reflect unresolved trauma, and how simple tools like breathwork and mindfulness can reset the body from chronic stress to regenerative healing. He shares why being constantly “on” can lead to burnout, even in high performers, and how recovery—not hustle—is now the key to winning, whether in sport or life. With practical tips on zone-based training, the role of endocannabinoids, and how to use wearables wisely, this episode is a masterclass in building the inner strength to thrive across your lifespan.
