Boundless Life

A few months ago, we had an amazingly popular podcast episode with Steven Kotler , author of " Decoding The Science of Ultimate Human Performance ". During that podcast, Steven mentioned another book he co-wrote with Peter Diamandis (famous founder of the X-Prize Foundation ) called " Abundance: The Future Is Better Than You Think ". Frankly, I thought this other book sounded like a bit of an airy...

A few weeks ago, my friend Yuri Elkaim (pictured above) published a book. Yuri is a bit of an outlier and renegade in the nutrition and health community. His mission is to empower everyday men and women with proper nutrition and health wisdom so they can take better control of their own health. He also holds High Honors degree in Physical Education and Health/Kinesiology from the University of Tor...

Zach Even-Esh - author of the new book the " Encyclopedia of Underground Strength and Conditioning " - is one of my friends, and one of the few guys who I truly consider to be an absolute beast when it comes to physical strength. But he wasn't always so strong. As a kid, Zach was crippled by self-doubt, low self-esteem, depression and career-ending injuries. L ater in life, he got sidetracked by f...

"Good broth will resurrect the dead," says a South American proverb. I don't know about that, but I still drink bone broth every week for healthy skin, hair, nails, a strong gut lining, good joints, and even a bit of a liver detox. Whether you’re injured, need to heal your gut fast, build muscle, need more natural sources of minerals and electrolytes in your diet, or simply want to drink, sip and...

I'm really not a big self-quantification nerd. I don't like to be plugged into stuff all day long. It just makes me feel like a giant robot (and being constantly plugged into things like bluetooth devices just gives me the tin-foil hat wearing heebie-jeebies). But I do religiously take one simple measurement every single morning: heart rate variability. And the method that I use to measure heart r...

I have a new toy. It's this set of tiny little blocks that are barely larger than Lego pieces (pictured above), and each little block can be connected to your phone to measure, collect and analyze the hidden qualities of your surroundings. It's called a " MyLapka Personal Environment Monitor ". The Lapka is a tiny, beautifully designed personal environment monitor, and in today's podcast, I interv...

Last year, in the podcast episode " The Unforeseen Costs of Civilization And What You Can Do About It. ", I spoke to author Spencer Wells about the world of genetic testing and gene research. In just one year since that episode, we've come a long way, baby. Even though the popular genetic testing service " 23andme " seems to have had a bit of a slapdown from the FDA when it comes to releasing spec...

Chris Brogan (pictured above after going from a fat keyboard slob to conquering SEALFit workouts) is author of the book " Just Start Here: Lose Weight, Get Stronger and FINALLY Succeed at Your Goals.

Until today's podcast episode, I didn't realize lasers were so darn cool, and effective for so many issues. The laser was invented in 1960 and the biological stimulation properties of laser light were discovered shortly after than, in 1967. Even though therapy lasers have been used in Europe much longer than in the United States, in 2002, the FDA cleared therapy lasers for treating injuries and en...

I grew up in North Idaho surrounded by hunters. I've personally been hunting whitetail deer in my backyard for 4 years, fishing since I was a kid, and I've even podcasted about whether deer meat is healthy . And in the recent post " The 3 P’s Of Being A Man, Getting Tough and Doing Hard Things ", you learned that one way to accomplish the "P" of providing is to hunt. My guest on today's podcast is...

Already twice this month, I've read a handy little free book for guys called Semper Virilis: A Roadmap to Manhood in the 21st Century (ladies, just forward it to the dude in your life). It was written by Brett McKay, a guest on today's podcast and founder of the Art of Manliness , a website which I religiously read. In one section of Semper Virilis, Brett introduces Theodore Roosevelt. This struck...

In every drugstore aisle in America, shoppers cast the classic pose: two products in hand, confusion on their faces as they attempt to decipher the advertising claims and safety labels. It's an important decision, but it is so hard to be certain you're making the right call. A new company called LabDoor buys dietary supplements and energy drinks off retail shelves and sites. Then, they send each p...

That's JJ Virgin pictured above. I first met JJ at a health conference in New York. I looked at the person seated in the chair to my left, and then I did a double-take as I realized that this woman sitting next to me had some of the most impressively toned arms and legs that I've ever seen in my life. I was even more shocked when I found out how she exercises. She's going to spill the beans on how...
