If your biohacking budget is doing more work than your training schedule, you may be investing in the wrong system.

Capacity is the real measuring stick.

[Jesse O'Brien @JesseAOBrien]

Money can buy the shortcuts.

It cannot buy the adaptation.

[Jesse O'Brien @JesseAOBrien]

The executives I coach in their 50s and 60s who've added functional decades to their lives didn't get there with hacks.

They got there by training the way the science actually suggests.

Consistently. For years.

Curious if anyone has explored a modern rite of passage for their kids, particularly boys. Two current ideas:

1 - kid canoes down the upper San Marcos without assistance.

2 - kid camps in woods somewhat close to home and has to make it home.

Curious others ideas…

People ask me about working out.

My trainer: Jesse at Central Athlete here in Austin.

They give me my weeks worth of workouts based on our quarterly goals. They have a gym with trainers who can help if you need it. Or do it all remotely.

The accountability is game changing.

4/ The best part is that my latest test is a one out of 4 (no more Spirokeets)!

Our bodies work as a whole.

Let's redefine our approach to health, starting with our mouths. #dentalhealth #dentalcare

[Jesse O'Brien @JesseAOBrien]

1/ I swapped my dentist for a biological one an hour away and had my mind blown.

Sound crazy?

Stick with me.

They swabbed my mouth, put it under a microscope, and rated my oral bacteria.

The rating?

3/ Root canals due to poor dental hygiene have a 99% causation to heart disease.

It's time we stop segregating health based on anatomy.

Thanks to my biological dentist, I'm now gargling with folic acid and probiotics and using a water pick with hydrogen peroxide.

4/ for blood sugar levels. It's the root of insomnia, chronic injuries, and burnout.

Healing happens in rest, in the parasympathetic state.

We must switch off the false alarms and teach our bodies that an angry email isn't a mountain lion.

#stress

[Jesse O'Brien @JesseAOBrien]

1/ Imagine being an early human, face-to-face with a mountain lion.

Adrenaline pumps, pupils dilate, heart races.

Today, your body reacts similarly to an angry client's email.

The result?

3/ The constant stress in her life.

As entrepreneurs, we're in an arena that triggers this fight-or-flight response daily.

We often lean more towards the sympathetic state, the fight-or-flight, than the parasympathetic, the rest-and-digest. But this imbalance isn't just bad..
