Magnesium is one of the most powerful supplements. But most people get it completely wrong. A few years ago, I added magnesium to my daily routine. I expected it to be a game-changer. It’s in my top 10 supplements for a reason. It’s vital for muscles, nerves and energy. But at first? I felt nothing. I was frustrated, wondering why everyone raved about it. Turns out, I was doing it all wrong. I used to think magnesium = magnesium. Wrong. There are at least 11 different types of magnesium, each with a unique role. Pick the wrong one, and you’re missing out on the benefits you’re chasing. 𝗠𝘆 𝟯 𝗕𝗶𝗴 𝗠𝗶𝘀𝘁𝗮𝗸𝗲𝘀 𝘄𝗶𝘁𝗵 𝗠𝗮𝗴𝗻𝗲𝘀𝗶𝘂𝗺 • Choosing the Wrong Form: I grabbed whatever was cheapest, not realizing each form has a specific purpose. I was throwing money away. • Taking the Wrong Dose: I wasn’t taking enough to make a difference. Too little, and your body won’t notice. Too much, and you’re in for digestive drama. • Supplementing Without a Deficiency: I didn’t check if I was low on magnesium. If your levels are fine, you won’t feel a change, no matter how much you take.

I used to laugh at sleep gadgets.  But this one completely changed my life. 𝗧𝘄𝗼 𝗺𝗼𝗻𝘁𝗵𝘀 𝗮𝗴𝗼, 𝗺𝘆 𝗳𝗿𝗶𝗲𝗻𝗱 Fabian Lurz 𝗯𝗼𝘂𝗴𝗵𝘁 𝗮𝗻 𝗘𝗶𝗴𝗵𝘁 𝗦𝗹𝗲𝗲𝗽 𝗣𝗼𝗱. I rolled my eyes.  €3,000 for a mattress cover?  Sounded crazy.  But after a week he told me his sleep improved dramatically.  I started to get curious.  We all know sleep is the foundation of an extended healthspan and peak performance.  So why prioritize money on supplements that might not do anything?  𝗜 𝗱𝗲𝗰𝗶𝗱𝗲𝗱 𝘁𝗼 𝘁𝗿𝘆 𝗶𝘁 𝗺𝘆𝘀𝗲𝗹𝗳.  When the huge boxes arrived, my wife thought I was nuts.  She had never heard of it.  The Eight Sleep is a water-based mattress cover that adjusts your bed's temperature throughout the night.  𝗜𝘁 𝘁𝗿𝗮𝗰𝗸𝘀 𝘀𝗲𝘃𝗲𝗿𝗮𝗹 𝘀𝗹𝗲𝗲𝗽 𝗺𝗲𝘁𝗿𝗶𝗰𝘀: • REM Sleep • Deep Sleep • Time Awake • Light Sleep • Time to fall asleep • Heart rate variability • Snoring • Breathing rate 𝗜 𝗵𝗮𝘃𝗲 𝘂𝘀𝗲𝗱 𝘁𝗵𝗲 𝘀𝘆𝘀𝘁𝗲𝗺 𝗳𝗼𝗿 𝟰 𝘄𝗲𝗲𝗸𝘀 𝗻𝗼𝘄. My deep sleep increased by 20%-30%.  Falling asleep became easier, especially on cold nights.  And if I wake up?  I'm back to sleep within minutes.  The app is also a game-changer.  It helps me understand how active I should be during the day.  𝗕𝘂𝘁 𝗶𝘀 𝗶𝘁 𝘄𝗼𝗿𝘁𝗵 $𝟯,𝟬𝟬𝟬? Honestly, waking up feeling 100% refreshed with a perfect sleep score?  For me that's priceless.  Now, my wife is a total convert too.  Think it's too expensive?  Try it for 30 days.  If it doesn't work for you, send it back.  But for peak longevity and performance, sleep tech like this can be a game-changer.  𝗪𝗵𝗮𝘁 𝗮𝗿𝗲 𝘆𝗼𝘂𝗿 𝘁𝗵𝗼𝘂𝗴𝗵𝘁𝘀 𝗮𝗻𝗱 𝗲𝘅𝗽𝗲𝗿𝗶𝗲𝗻𝗰𝗲𝘀 𝘄𝗶𝘁𝗵 𝘀𝗹𝗲𝗲𝗽 𝗴𝗮𝗱𝗴𝗲𝘁𝘀 𝗮𝗻𝗱 𝗼𝗽𝘁𝗶𝗺𝗶𝘇𝗮𝘁𝗶𝗼𝗻?

This is my best kept secret for mental clarity. I don't get why most high-achievers resist it. Last Tuesday, after a grueling day left me mentally foggy, I faced a choice. My instinct was to crash on the couch, scrolling mindlessly. Instead, I laced up my sneakers and walked to the canal near my home.

Do you feel like your brain is slowing down? Here's the good news: 𝗬𝗼𝘂 𝗰𝗮𝗻 𝘁𝗮𝗸𝗲 𝗮𝗰𝘁𝗶𝗼𝗻 𝘁𝗼 𝗽𝗿𝗲𝘃𝗲𝗻𝘁 𝘁𝗵𝗮𝘁. Brain plasticity exists throughout your entire life. Yet, there's a crucial detail that often flies under the radar. As we age, the stimulus required to maintain that plasticity increases significantly. I did a deep dive into the neuroscience of brain adaptation.

Think about it like physical fitness: You wouldn't expect to maintain muscle strength without regular exercise. Yet, many expect cognitive function to sustain itself without challenge. The reality is, brain health and longevity cannot be passive processes. They require deliberate, consistent engagement. 𝗦𝗼, 𝘄𝗵𝗮𝘁 𝗮𝗿𝗲 𝘆𝗼𝘂 𝗱𝗼𝗶𝗻𝗴 𝘁𝗼 𝗮𝗰𝘁𝗶𝘃𝗲𝗹𝘆 𝗰𝗵𝗮𝗹𝗹𝗲𝗻𝗴𝗲 𝘆𝗼𝘂𝗿 𝗻𝗲𝘂𝗿𝗮𝗹 𝗽𝗮𝘁𝗵𝘄𝗮𝘆𝘀 𝘁𝗼𝗱𝗮𝘆?

This woman is aging slower than Bryan Johnson while spending 1,500x less. 𝗕𝗿𝘆𝗮𝗻 𝗝𝗼𝗵𝗻𝘀𝗼𝗻: $2 million per year on anti-aging protocols 𝗝𝘂𝗹𝗶𝗲 𝗖𝗹𝗮𝗿𝗸: $108 per month At 56, Julie’s biological age is just 36. Let that sink in. The secret isn’t exotic supplements or high-tech gadgets. No hyperbaric chambers or $10,000 peptide protocols required. Here’s how Julie structures her day for longevity, broken down into four key parts: 𝟭. 𝗠𝗼𝗿𝗻𝗶𝗻𝗴 𝗥𝗶𝘁𝘂𝗮𝗹𝘀: 𝗦𝗲𝘁𝘁𝗶𝗻𝗴 𝘁𝗵𝗲 𝗧𝗼𝗻𝗲 • 5 AM Wake-Up: → Julie cherishes the quiet of early mornings, describing them as peaceful. → Make the Bed: Inspired by Admiral McRaven, she stretches gently while making her bed, signaling the start of the day. → Green Tea & Spiritual Practice: She sips carefully sourced green tea (mindful of heavy metals) while reading the Bible. → Morning Light: Weather permitting, she soaks in sunlight while sipping tea. 𝟮. 𝗠𝗶𝗱𝗱𝗮𝘆 𝗠𝗼𝘃𝗲𝗺𝗲𝗻𝘁: 𝗦𝘁𝗿𝗲𝗻𝗴𝘁𝗵 𝗮𝗻𝗱 𝗥𝗲𝗰𝗼𝘃𝗲𝗿𝘆 • 7 AM Workout: →Julie hits the gym 3-4 times a week for full-body sessions, 3-5 moves for lower body, 3-5 for upper body, plus core work. → Sauna & Cold Shower: She follows with 20-30 minutes in the sauna and a 4-5 minute cold shower. → Norwegian 4x4 Cardio: On some days, she mixes in this interval training. 𝟯. 𝗡𝘂𝘁𝗿𝗶𝘁𝗶𝗼𝗻 𝗙𝗼𝗰𝘂𝘀: 𝗙𝘂𝗲𝗹𝗶𝗻𝗴 𝗟𝗼𝗻𝗴𝗲𝘃𝗶𝘁𝘆 9 AM Mean Green Drink: → Julie’s signature drink includes moringa, fermented greens, chlorella, maca, lemon juice, collagen protein. 10 AM Greens Latte: → Inspired by Dr. Kara Fitzgerald’s recipe, this warm blend of bone broth, baby greens (kale, chard, spinach), apple, flax seed and pecans. 11 AM Veggie Bowl: → To hit her goal of 1 lb of veggies daily, she enjoys a colorful 8-10 oz bowl of raw or lightly cooked vegetables. → 5 PM Dinner: Julie aims to eat 3+ hours before bed, balancing veggies, protein, and connection with her son. 𝟰. 𝗘𝘃𝗲𝗻𝗶𝗻𝗴 𝗪𝗶𝗻𝗱-𝗗𝗼𝘄𝗻: 𝗥𝗲𝘀𝘁 𝗮𝗻𝗱 𝗥𝗲𝗳𝗹𝗲𝗰𝘁𝗶𝗼𝗻 → 1 PM Meditation:  Julie practices 20 minutes of Transcendental Meditation (TM). → 7:30 PM Evening Walk:  She walks 6-9k steps with calming music to clear her mind and relax. → 9 PM Lights Out:  Julie prioritizes sleep, using mouth tape and an eye mask to ensure quality rest. 𝗪𝗵𝗮𝘁 𝗔𝗴𝗲𝘀 𝗨𝘀 𝗙𝗮𝘀𝘁𝗲𝘀𝘁? When Julie was asked what accelerates aging, her answer wasn’t diet or exercise. 𝗜𝘁 𝘄𝗮𝘀 𝘄𝗼𝗿𝗿𝘆 𝗮𝗻𝗱 𝗽𝗲𝗿𝗳𝗲𝗰𝘁𝗶𝗼𝗻𝗶𝘀𝗺. Her philosophy? “Consistency over perfection.” She emphasizes progress over flawlessness, making her routine sustainable for decades. Good health is your right, and Julie’s routine shows how accessible it can be. ---------------------- Hi, I'm Alex 👋 - a former tech exec sharing strategies to unlock peak performance and an increased healthspan. 🤝 Coaching available upon request via DM. 🌱 Follow me for strategies and tactics for a sharper, longer, vibrant life.

I thought I was super healthy. Only to find out my gut was wrecked. But when I fixed it, everything changed. 𝗧𝗵𝗶𝘀 𝗶𝘀 𝘁𝗵𝗲 𝗷𝗼𝘂𝗿𝗻𝗲𝘆 𝘁𝗵𝗮𝘁 𝘁𝗿𝗮𝗻𝘀𝗳𝗼𝗿𝗺𝗲𝗱 𝗺𝘆 𝗵𝗲𝗮𝗹𝘁𝗵. A couple of years ago I did my first stool test. I was excited because I thought my body and my gut were in great condition. I couldn't have been more wrong. 𝗧𝗵𝗲 𝘀𝘁𝗼𝗼𝗹 𝗿𝗲𝘀𝘂𝗹𝘁𝘀 𝘀𝗵𝗼𝗰𝗸𝗲𝗱 𝗺𝗲: • Severe inflammation • Overgrowth of bad bacteria • Clear symptoms of leaky gut I was DEVASTATED. 𝗛𝗼𝘄 𝗰𝗼𝘂𝗹𝗱 𝘁𝗵𝗶𝘀 𝗵𝗮𝗽𝗽𝗲𝗻 𝘄𝗵𝗲𝗻 𝗜 𝘄𝗮𝘀: • Eating a "healthy" diet • Taking numerous supplements • Working out several times weekly My gut health was secretly sabotaging everything I worked for. A damaged, leaky gut can't properly absorb vitamins because of inflammation and a broken intestinal lining. Also toxins enter the bloodstream. This leads to many problems. The worst part? I had no idea. 𝗧𝗵𝗲𝗻 𝗜 𝗱𝗶𝘀𝗰𝗼𝘃𝗲𝗿𝗲𝗱 𝘁𝗵𝗲 𝗺𝗶𝘀𝘀𝗶𝗻𝗴 𝗽𝗶𝗲𝗰𝗲𝘀: • I wasn't breastfed as a child (missing crucial bacteria) • I'd been avoiding fermented foods only relying on Kefir due to histamine intolerance • I'd dismissed certain gut supplements based on outdated information This wasn't just about comfort. It was about my entire health foundation. 𝗦𝗼 𝗜 𝗰𝗿𝗲𝗮𝘁𝗲𝗱 𝗮 𝘀𝗼𝗹𝘂𝘁𝗶𝗼𝗻: → I researched the most scientifically-backed yogurt strains specifically for my condition. →I formulated my own yogurt with 4 specific bacterial strains. → I added 3 supplements with additional strains. 𝗧𝗵𝗲 𝘁𝗿𝗮𝗻𝘀𝗳𝗼𝗿𝗺𝗮𝘁𝗶𝗼𝗻 𝗯𝗲𝗴𝗮𝗻 𝘄𝗶𝘁𝗵𝗶𝗻 𝗪𝗘𝗘𝗞𝗦. After 3-4 weeks: Noticeable healing After several months: Complete transformation → Leaky gut: FIXED → Inflammation: GONE → Vitality: SKYROCKETED → Mental clarity: RESTORED → Skin: IMPROVED → Immune system: STRENGTHENED Now I can't go even a few days without my yogurt.

The billionaire body blueprint anyone can follow. How Bezos proved that transformation is possible regardless of age. I've been studying Jeff Bezos' remarkable physical transformation since 2017. It's a perfect example of how strategic lifestyle changes can dramatically reshape your body at any age. 𝗧𝗵𝗲 𝗖𝗮𝘁𝗮𝗹𝘆𝘀𝘁 𝗳𝗼𝗿 𝗖𝗵𝗮𝗻𝗴𝗲 Around 2017, Bezos began to prioritize his physical health. Before this turning point he admitted to poor eating habits. Including consuming an entire container of Pillsbury biscuits for breakfast. His then-wife MacKenzie Scott reportedly encouraged him to become more nutrition-conscious, which may have planted the seeds for his eventual transformation. 𝗡𝘂𝘁𝗿𝗶𝘁𝗶𝗼𝗻 𝗧𝗿𝗮𝗻𝘀𝗳𝗼𝗿𝗺𝗮𝘁𝗶𝗼𝗻 Bezos' dietary changes have been substantial: • Moved away from processed foods and high-carb breakfasts • Adopted more balanced, nutrient-dense meals • Likely incorporated Whole Foods' health-focused philosophy into his personal diet • Maintains flexibility by allowing occasional indulgences, such as his Sunday pancake tradition This balanced approach to nutrition demonstrates a sustainable mindset rather than an extreme diet, which explains how he's maintained his physique over time. 𝗧𝗵𝗲 𝗘𝘅𝗲𝗿𝗰𝗶𝘀𝗲 𝗣𝗿𝗼𝘁𝗼𝗰𝗼𝗹 Working with celebrity trainer Wes Okerson, Bezos follows a structured fitness regimen: • 30 minutes of cardio exercise • 45 minutes of weightlifting most days • Workouts organized around pulling, pushing, and leg days • Incorporates outdoor activities like kayaking and paddle-boarding This comprehensive approach builds both strength and endurance, creating the balanced physique Bezos now displays. 𝗧𝗵𝗲 𝗦𝗹𝗲𝗲𝗽 𝗖𝗼𝗺𝗽𝗼𝗻𝗲𝗻𝘁 Sleep is the secret weapon in Bezos' transformation. He consistently prioritizes eight hours of sleep nightly: • Enhances cognitive function • Supports muscle recovery and growth • Regulates hormones that control appetite and metabolism • Improves energy levels for consistent workouts 𝗧𝗵𝗲 𝗗𝗮𝗶𝗹𝘆 𝗥𝗼𝘂𝘁𝗶𝗻𝗲 Bezos' morning routine reflects his disciplined approach: • Early wake-up • "Puttering time" for coffee and reading • Exercise before beginning work • Consistent schedule that reinforces healthy habits 𝗪𝗵𝘆 𝗧𝗵𝗶𝘀 𝗠𝗮𝘁𝘁𝗲𝗿𝘀 𝗙𝗼𝗿 𝗬𝗼𝘂 Bezos' demonstrated that age is not a barrier to physical improvement. His approach combines three critical elements that anyone you adopt: • Nutrition awareness and improvement • Consistent, structured exercise • Prioritizing recovery through sleep The transformation wasn't overnight. It's been a multi-year journey of consistent habits and lifestyle changes. What is your opinion on Bezos transformation?
