How to Build Muscle WITHOUT Lifting! Biohacker Longevity   : 1362

How to Build Muscle WITHOUT Lifting! Biohacker Longevity : 1362

Your workouts may be doing less than you think, and science now proves why. This episode reveals how to build muscle, improve metabolism, and extend longevity in a fraction of the time using blood flow restriction training and intermittent hypoxia. You’ll learn how to hack your mitochondria for faster recovery, stronger hormonal balance, and better brain performance without the burnout of high-intensity training.

https://www.youtube.com/@DaveAspreyBPR


Host Dave Asprey talks with Dr. Sten Stray-Gundersen, PhD, CSCS, one of the world’s leading experts on blood flow restriction (BFR) training and metabolic physiology. With over a decade of research and teaching experience, Dr. Stray-Gundersen has explored how BFR and intermittent hypoxia can improve cardiovascular health, metabolism, and recovery. After earning his doctorate in Exercise Physiology from the University of Texas at Austin, he now serves as an Assistant Professor at the University of South Carolina, where he studies vascular adaptations, cognitive performance, and ergogenic aids. He’s also a B Strong master trainer, developing individualized BFR protocols for athletes, military professionals, and everyday people looking to optimize human performance.


Together, Dave and Sten uncover how BFR and oxygen cycling unlock powerful adaptations in the body’s vascular, metabolic, and hormonal systems. You’ll learn how strategic stress signals can trigger nitric oxide production, enhance glucose uptake, improve insulin sensitivity, and supercharge mitochondria for better energy and anti-aging benefits. They also explore how these methods can naturally boost testosterone, growth hormone, and even libido, all while protecting the nervous system and improving recovery.


This episode dives deep into biohacking, functional medicine, and smart exercise efficiency, from Zone 2 and REHIT training to nitric oxide signaling, fasting, nootropics, and precision supplementation. Whether your goal is longevity, strength, or sharper cognition, this conversation shows you how to get maximum results with minimal time using the principles of Smarter Not Harder.


You’ll Learn:

• How intermittent hypoxia works at the level of partial pressure and why altitude acclimation upgrades mitochondria and performance

• Why hypoxia and muscle contraction increase glucose uptake independent of insulin and improve insulin sensitivity

• How blood flow restriction (BFR) accelerates fatigue with light loads to drive hypertrophy, strength, and vascular adaptations

• How BFR and hypoxia influence testosterone, growth hormone, nitric oxide, and libido through short, targeted stress

• The roles of ENOS, INOS, and NNOS in nitric oxide signaling and what that means for circulation and brain perfusion

• Who benefits most from BFR, including athletes, rehab patients, and older adults who cannot lift heavy

• Why BFR produces systemic and “proximal” gains, including carryover to glutes and upper body during lower limb training

• How to stack BFR with Zone 2, REHIT, and vibration plates for VO2 max, muscle, and time efficiency


Dave Asprey is a four-time New York Times bestselling author, founder of Bulletproof Coffee, and the father of biohacking. With over 1,000 interviews and 1 million monthly listeners, The Human Upgrade brings you the knowledge to take control of your biology, extend your longevity, and optimize every system in your body and mind. Each episode delivers cutting-edge insights in health, performance, neuroscience, supplements, nutrition, biohacking, emotional intelligence, and conscious living.


New episodes are released every Tuesday, Thursday, Friday, and Sunday (BONUS). Dave asks the questions no one else will and gives you real tools to become stronger, smarter, and more resilient.

A Blueprint to Overhaul the American Food & Pharma Systems – Calley Means : 1146

A Blueprint to Overhaul the American Food & Pharma Systems – Calley Means : 1146

Today, Calley Means joins the show to march onward on his war path to changing the incentives of modern health. He’s a champion of food and lifestyle practices as medicine—and, in May of this year, he’s putting out a new book on the subject which we outline today, called Good Energy.His sister, Dr. Casey Means, is the co-author of Good Energy. You know her from a past appearance on this show and as the founder of Levels so this mission really is a family affair in the best way possible.Going from a food lobbyist to the other side of the fence, Calley is a deeply serious and dedicated champion for the people. But he brings much more to the table today than a polished delivery and a new book; he is also the co-founder of True Medicine, which works to connect tax-advantaged spending to healthy food and exercise. It’s helped hundreds of thousands of people access affordable care by leveraging the convoluted systems currently in place to block them from doing so—no easy task.In this conversation, Calley lays the foundation for our food culture as it stands today—bleak, corrupt, poisoned, sick, and getting sicker. We deconstruct the layers of federal agencies and historical precedent that have brought us to this point, and we’re direct in our suggestions (demands) on how to fix it.And all the facts are laid bare. Dots are connected in broad daylight, on network television, and within the algorithms that power our social feeds. Our kids are at stake, and the only option is to take affirmative action on what we know is right.

Akashic Records 101: The Simple Spiritual Practice You Haven’t Heard of…Yet – Laura Coe : 1139

Today we’re talking about something a little different—the “weird,” esoteric, metaphysical stuff. I’m joined by Laura Coe, who was a successful healthcare tech entrepreneur before selling her company and returning to her passion for philosophy. She is now an author, certified life coach, and Akashic Records reader. Never heard of the Akashic Records? Laura explains exactly what they are, and how they can help you understand yourself on a deeper level to find more joy, peace, and prosperity in your life. We explore the big questions… Who can access the Records? How do you know if they’re even real? Then, we get into the nitty gritty… How do you learn to read them? What can you ask and not ask? Can they help you sell your house or make more money? Laura and I also talk about how to tap into your intuition as an entrepreneur, the stigmas against spirituality, and why more of us than we think probably have psychic gifts. If you’re skeptical of this stuff, I’m going to ask you to suspend your disbelief and listen with an open mind. Laura’s perspective will give you a lot to think about. Why not give it a try?
