@bryan_johnson A 99th percentile VO2 max at 48 isn't the supplement stack talking. It's years of consistent training the algorithm can't replicate.

Our hypothesis:

+ Metformin pushes the cells to recycle, repair, and build new mitochondria (mitochondria are the power plants of the cells).

+ Long-term use kept my cells locked in mitochondria build up mode (I had 3x more mitochondria than normal) but Metformin blocked this optimized mitochondria from being used.

Pausing Metformin unleashed my mitochondria’s full energy potential (spike in power came with more oxidative stress though).

We’re now cycling Metformin, which should give me the best of both worlds, mitochondrial build-up and optimal use.

Même diagnostic pour pas mal de pratiques bien-être. Ce qui soigne vraiment, c'est la régularité du mouvement, pas une séance ponctuelle décorée de mots savants. https://t.co/koNCOvBXme

L'ostéopathie ce n'est pas médical, ce n'est pas paramédical, ce n'est pas une profession de santé, ce n'est pas une science, ce n'est même pas du "soin". A la limite on pourrait classer ça dans la catégorie "bien-être" peut-être et encore.

@bryan_johnson N=1 experiments make great threads, but what happens across a population without your genetics, your recovery protocols and your team of doctors is the real test.

A member of ours used to work at Binance.

He made a bunch of money in Covid

Took it all off chain, started building properties & did really well for himself.

At some point he decided money just for the sake of money was no longer quite cutting it for him.

Now?

He’s doing a bunch of charitable stuff.

But today?

His new social wellness club has opened up in an area that really needed it.

& it’s wonderful to see the place is absolutely PACKED!

3 floors.

- gym
- recovery centre
- yoga studio
- Pilates
- co-working space

Everything you might need to make it your 3rd space 😁

Life in Bali just keeps getting better every single week

Grateful beyond measure

$36k for silence and almonds. I'll take a 45-min reformer class and my own kitchen, thanks. https://t.co/JxW0rXXKrm

ASPEN, CO — A luxury wellness retreat is facing criticism after charging guests $36,000 for what attendees described as “basically being hungry and quiet in the forest for three days.” The exclusive retreat, known as StillRoot, promises to “reset cellular vibration patterns” through a carefully curated regimen of silence, mindfulness, filtered mountain air, and approximately seven almonds distributed at emotionally significant intervals.

Guests begin each morning with a 4:30 a.m. guided breathwork session led by a barefoot man named River who gently reminds participants that coffee “blocks abundance pathways.”

Meals reportedly consist of steamed spinach, room-temperature mineral water, and a single almond served on hand-crafted ceramic plates worth more than most Hondas. “At first I thought I was being held hostage,” said one attendee wrapped in a $900 ethically sourced alpaca blanket. “But by day two I realized my headache and dizziness were actually toxins leaving my body.”

The retreat brochure promises attendees they will “reconnect with their authentic selves” by surrendering their phones, speaking to no one, and sitting motionless beside trees while listening to distant wind chimes and someone softly striking a gong every 11 minutes.

Premium package holders may also participate in “advanced emotional detox,” during which participants scream into a canyon while wellness coaches nod knowingly.

Despite criticism over the price, organizers insist the experience delivers profound value. “You’re not paying for food,” explained Somalian StillRoot founder Sage Moonwater while adjusting a scarf the size of a parachute. “You’re paying to remember who you were before modern society poisoned your nervous system with email.”

At press time, attendees were reportedly preparing for the retreat’s closing ceremony in which everyone quietly journals about almonds before being whisked away in black Escalades.

UPDATE 7.12.26, 8:28am: Investigative reporter Nick Shirley has uncovered multiple Somalian-run “wellness centers” throughout Colorado collecting extravagant fees from prepaying guests. Such addresses were linked to empty warehouses rather than tranquil sanctuaries.

La baisse de testostérone n'est pas une fatalité génétique, c'est le prix des modes de vie sédentaires. Le sport reste le levier le plus sous-estimé. https://t.co/j59CBRxIxe

[𝐉𝐨𝐬𝐮é 𝐊𝐚𝐬𝐡𝐢𝐭𝐨 @JosueKashito]

À en croire une méta-analyse menée sur 110 000 personnes, le taux de testostérone aurait diminué de 50 % chez certains hommes cette baisse serait liée à plusieurs facteurs, notamment les habitudes de vie, l’exposition à certaines substances chimiques, la négligence en matière de santé ainsi que la pollution de l’air.

I realized I couldnt just "think" my way out of trauma when it was trapped in my body. Thats why I started doing pilates and yoga consistently. It wasnt even about fitness at first more likely it was about learning how to breathe through the tension

Three reformer Pilates sessions a week for years isn't a headline. It's just the actual mechanism nobody wants to hear about. https://t.co/hZQX2cwERJ

[Dr Alo, DO, FACC @MohammedAlo]

🚨 Adele lost 100 pounds and the internet immediately assumed she had surgery.

The assumption says more about our culture than it does about her health.

But the data on what she actually did is far more instructive than the gossip.

And no, dramatic weight loss does not automatically mean a surgeon was involved.

🩺 Here is what we actually know.

Adele has publicly credited a combination of strength training, circuit training, and a reformer Pilates practice performed up to 3 times per week. She has spoken about dietary discipline without endorsing any single branded protocol. She has not confirmed bariatric surgery. She has not confirmed GLP-1 use.

What she has confirmed is consistent, structured physical effort over multiple years.

That is the real story.

🔬 The science of 100-pound weight loss without surgery:

Sustained caloric deficit through whole food dietary changes produces 1 to 2 pounds of loss per week in adherent patients.

Resistance training preserves lean mass during aggressive fat loss. This matters because lean mass preservation is what separates sustainable transformation from the yo-yo cycle.

Psychological scaffolding, including working with coaches, therapists, and structured routines, increases long-term adherence by 40% compared to willpower-based approaches alone.

None of those tools require an operating room.

⚠️ Why the surgery assumption is a cultural problem.

When society sees a woman lose 100 pounds and immediately assumes intervention rather than effort, we erase the agency of the person who did the work. We also inadvertently stigmatize bariatric surgery, as if using it would be something to hide. Both outcomes are harmful.

Bariatric surgery is a legitimate, evidence-based tool. So is GLP-1 therapy. So is disciplined lifestyle change. None of these is a moral failing. None of these is a shortcut.

❌ Scalpels are not the only explanation for extraordinary results.
❌ GLP-1 medications are not cheating if someone used them.
❌ Assuming either without evidence is not analysis. It is bias.

🫀 What the cardiovascular data actually tells us.

A 100-pound weight reduction in an individual with obesity reduces left ventricular mass, lowers resting heart rate, decreases systolic blood pressure by an average of 10 to 20 mmHg, and reduces the lifetime risk of heart failure by a clinically significant margin.

That is not cosmetic. That is organ-level protection.

I am a cardiologist. I have patients who have achieved 60 to 100 pound reductions through lifestyle, through GLP-1 therapy, and through bariatric procedures. The cardiovascular benefit shows up on the echocardiogram regardless of which path got them there.

That matters because the heart does not care how you lost the weight. It cares that you did.

✅ A patient who commits to structured resistance training 3 times per week, eliminates ultra-processed food, and builds a consistent sleep and stress management routine can achieve 50 to 100 pounds of fat loss in 18 to 36 months without surgical intervention.

That is the difference between spectating someone else's transformation and building your own.

❤️ Bottom line:

Adele's weight loss is not a mystery requiring a surgical explanation. It is an example of what structured effort over time produces. Whether she used additional medical tools is her private medical information. The obsession with finding a shortcut explanation reflects our collective discomfort with the reality that sustained transformation is slow, hard, and available to most people.

The question is no longer whether it was surgery. The question is what are you doing with the tools already available to you.

This is why everyone invested in their own health needs to pay attention.
