Most people have no idea what's really happening in the longevity world. They hear "anti-aging" and think of fasting windows and cold plunges. Meanwhile, some of the most powerful tools are prescription-only compounds that almost never get discussed publicly. I've been experimenting with several of them for years, tracking how they impact my performance, recovery, bloodwork, and training cycles… and in this episode, I'm breaking that silence.
I'm walking you through the three medications I personally use, why I use them, the biology they target, and how they fit into my longevity and performance blocks. But I'm also giving you the natural alternatives that hit similar pathways without stepping into prescription territory.
I'm covering everything from metabolic control to detoxification to skin regeneration, and how to think about timing, cycling, and longevity from an athlete's perspective.
This episode will open your eyes to what's really possible.
What's Discussed:
(00:05) The anti-aging medications I personally use and why I cycle them
(02:41) How I approach mTOR modulation inside my training blocks
(09:07) The metabolic compound I only take under certain conditions
(15:46) The prescription binder I use after travel or high exposure
(18:52) When I switch to natural binders instead of pharmaceuticals
(21:23) The skin-regeneration protocol I rotate between weeks
