40:50 its own stem cells so fasting for long periods of time um not necessarily fasting with with caloric fast and you increase cellular autophagy and stem cell production, your own stem cell production, metabolism a break So do you compress the amount of calories? it's a compressed feeding window right so um you know and I do feel better when I do that and I definitely become more accustomed to not
43:57 Yeah, you were trying that for a while. You're putting that on your social media, they make these uh french cut grass-fed grass-finished bone-in ribeye steaks i'm getting that are doing this now. as a lot of religions would do, talking about like 0.5 grams per pound of body weight, rather than what a typical athlete would he publishes blood work online.

Thyme or You restrict a lot of the unhealthy and you put it on the stovetop. Never an issue. It doesn't burn. Look it up. there for very long anyways extra virgin olive oil into the pan you heat up the olive oil
1:02:35 they're probably about that thick. um, And then you turn it over and you do one minute on the other side. three or four minutes. That technique is the best technique for the most perfect steak that you'll So when they cut hardwood like for this table, and they also make one that you could use with an app. bottom that comes from an element. Then mostly what I'm cooking is wild game, low fat content.
1:05:28 Just use no now. so I know to go and get it. And again, when I've got the steak on the grill itself, once it's heated up. reverse sear method the idea is that I'm cooking it to a perfect internal temperature of 120 degrees, which This is very precise.

1:11:42 these studies on on baking soda for athletic performance and its ability to be able to buffer lactic acid. It's a potent ergogenic aid, but the problem is harder. Do you notice a difference between – It's all theoretical. Yeah. are green tea polyphenols is they act as an anti-inflammatory post-exercise without blunting Same reason you shouldn't do a cold bath post-workout.
1:13:59 I wait two or three hours. giant call. I bought one of those endless pools, you know, like those fitness pools that you swim sleep you're doing what research has shown is that it's ideal to finish a hard workout within three know, I finish work. four hours a night and you'd be fine. I could have really messed up his name right there. from stage one to stage five sleep that you get throughout the course of the week, meaning you're supposed to get 31 to 35 sleep cycles over seven days.
1:17:33 You should listen to the podcast with Matthew Walker because he's pretty in-depth about what Right. And then I've got these binaural, no, they're not binaural beats. It's an artificial intelligence-based audio that confuses your brain and lulls you into this total state of relaxation. with bringing stuff to the post office. the idea with sleep though is yeah if you if you nap and if you pay closer attention to the number
1:20:01 Kevin Rose tried to get me to wear one of those things. I just redesigned it, yeah. because you can pull up your body temperature during the night so a woman could use this to go in the sauna and do yoga. Right.

1:25:35 And you wake up in the morning, and you could use a vibration platform. Yeah. And the way that I stayed lean for races was you get up in the morning and you have a cup very hard workout. I like to ease my way into the day. I like a non-stressful morning unless I've morning, you get a lot of times post-workout caloric compensation, meaning you just want to
1:28:05 in through my nose and do breath hold. or a cold soak or some kind of cold thermogenesis. And I'm able to stay super lean with that You'd go to bed at night and you'd be staring at the ceiling hungry. shedding too much muscle, and you just spike your blood levels of amino acids and then go into your workout. Plants, starches, fats. you're very insulin sensitive, and any carbohydrates that you do eat are far more
1:31:48 plants, moderate amount of fats, and, you know, some amount of protein, but but not a crazy amount But are you experiencing states of ketosis during the day with that sort of diet? I don't like having the Band-Aids on the fingers when I'm trying to write things on my lap. was saying because it sounded weird to me yeah anyways, though, the cyclic ketogenic diet allows you to be back in the state of ketosis by that morning easily.
1:33:50 eating the bread and all that stuff. Yeah. Your blood glucose will rise. You're not going to be You start your day off like that, and then you end your day with the carbohydrates. I mean, I don't think there's anything wrong with having a little bread or a little pasta potent anti-aging molecules you can put into your body in terms of decreasing the rate at which your
1:35:58 mainlining it into your bloodstream. And how do you get it? Where do you get it from? That's like an hour long IV. Really? push this NADN very, very slowly. And you can even chase it with a Myers cocktail, which enhances the effectiveness of it. It's too much to remember, I don't know. Keep the poison out. I was speaking with somebody yesterday about this
1:38:45 practitioner do this. And then there's some clinics that will do, it's called a push IV, have been the stem cell injections intravenously and the NAD injections. No. but I can tell you that I feel amazing. And that telomere length is buy that on Amazon as a powder. And I put a lot of this stuff in my morning smoothie now. So when Yeah. And I mean, some people who don't understand the supplement industry or formulation say,
1:42:16 it would be a great resource if people could subscribe to something and you guys could And, you know, I saw yesterday that you tweeted out, you know, my friend Nina Teicholz's, of that cholesterol. There's, there's, there's ways around that, you know, for example, like a And so, yeah, again, you could have a subscription-based service that teaches people a lot of these things.
1:45:02 Yeah, that's an igg food allergy have the immunoglobulin reaction to avocados, and there's no bodies in the streets, no evidence that that's going to actually hurt you. You could probably do like a washout, like a five day fast. nasty things happen to your body when you don't give it enough calories. What about long-term, not even for five days. I'm too active. Like I just have too much shit going on. All like,
1:47:54 the days when I do, you know, fricking, I call those my self-love days where like I do clay masks No, but I'm serious. where she just moves stuff through that's kind of moving slowly. and I keep coffee in there for about 20 minutes while I'm working. for 20 minutes and then you get up and you let it all out and and of course i have the squatty When I don't have one, I perch.
1:50:11 up my body that much. Coffee enema doesn't cause a lot of eccentric muscle tissue damage unless that full 24 hour fast. And I do a lot of work that day. I play with my kids. I just fill things utilize those ketones for energy before it would you know turn some of your own acetyl-coa derived such as the consumption of these ketone esters designed by the U.S. Department of Defense for soldiers in battle who have to go two or three days without eating or for Tour de France riders who have been using them for a while.
1:53:17 that. So you've got amino acids, ketones, and glucose, and that mix is just pure rocket fuel. right? So exposure to high amounts of morning sunlight or using one of these newfangled your sleep is more or less fucked up, right? Like that would be a situation in which you just wouldn't want to eat anything Yeah. What about water? I know a guy who does dry fasting with autologous urine therapy
1:55:49 Actually, the temperature got to me more than the taste. Yeah. So that's not something you would do. steak. There's not a lot of us
