This Sunday, we dive into the world of sports science and longevity, exploring one of the most powerful (and underrated) health markers: VO₂ Max — a key predictor of all-cause mortality.
We'll listen together to highlights from an insightful interview between Dr. Rhonda Patrick (biochemical researcher) and Dr. Martin Gibala (sport physiologist), followed by key takeaways from Dr. Peter Attia’s protocols on how to improve your cardiovascular fitness — time-efficiently 💪⏱️
Together we'll explore:
🔬 What is VO₂ Max, and why it matters
📉 How low VO₂ Max is linked to higher mortality risk (backed by studies!)
📈 Protocols to increase your VO₂ Max like the “Norwegian 4x4” and Zone 2 training
🫀 Using RPE (Rate of Perceived Exertion) vs Heart Rate Zones
🧪 The science of reversing heart aging through structured training
👟 How to build a weekly training schedule using the 80:20 rule for optimal adaptation
💻 LIVE DEMO:
• Estimate your VO₂ Max using wearables like Polar
• Identify your personalized HR zones for aerobic fitness
• See what a Norwegian 4x4 session actually looks like in training data
We’ll also open the floor for sharing tips, protocols, and personal hacks — so come ready to connect and contribute!
Whether you're an elite athlete or just starting your health journey, there's something for everyone. Bring your curiosity, your tracker (if you have one), and your questions.
Let’s learn, share, and biohack our way to better health — together 🌱⚡
See you Sunday! 💚
