If I were in NYC, I’d be grabbing a seat to the premiere of Unbanked, a new Bitcoin documentary.
Tickets are just $15 and only 96 seats are left!
Huge shoutout to Lauren Sieckmann for bringing her vision to life.

Omega-3 fatty acids aren’t just for the brain and heart—they also preserve and help increase muscle mass due to their anti-catabolic and anabolic effects.
A recent meta-analysis has also revealed that combining omega-3 supplementation with exercise significantly boosts cardiometabolic health outcomes compared to exercise alone:
• Reduces body fat (~1 kg reduction)
• Improves triglyceride levels
• Decreases inflammation
• Lowers blood pressure (4 mmHg reductions in systolic and diastolic pressure)
• Enhances lower-body strength
Some of the benefits were modest—such the reduction in body fat mass—while others were large and clinically significant—like the reductions in both systolic and diastolic blood pressure.
This was achieved with a dose of omega-3s ranging from 1–4.5 grams per day.
Supplementing with omega-3 fatty acids (and eating a diet high in omega-3-containing foods) is something you should already be doing to support your cardiovascular and brain health. The good news is that this essential nutrient is also helping you get more out of your exercise training regimen.

A single 25–30g dose of creatine not only reversed the cognitive deficits of 21 hours of sleep deprivation, but it also enhanced brain function beyond well-rested levels.
Accompanying this was an increase in brain creatine levels and high-energy phosphates—suggesting that high-dose creatine effectively gets into the brain, where it has rapid bioenergetic effects.
According to @darrencandow, this rapid effect on brain bioenergetics makes high-dose creatine a compelling candidate for treating conditions like TBI, dementia, and depression—where neuronal energy failure is a common feature.
Our brain requires massive amounts of energy to function optimally —and the more that the brain is stressed, the more creatine seems to come to the rescue.
Episode 100 of the FoundMyFitness podcast is live; it explores the emerging science of creatine for brain health, cognitive resilience, muscle strength, and bone density.
