In 'Smarter Not Harder,' Dave Asprey exposes the surprising secrets of the body's operating system, or 'MeatOS,' which is naturally designed to be lazy. He shows how to hack this system to achieve optimum wellness by exercising and eating smarter, not harder, and utilizing the body's built-in laziness. The book is packed with practical information on better eating, smart workouts, and strategic therapies to reduce stress and boost resilience, aiming to upgrade metabolic, neurological, and epigenetic systems.
Male 2.0 challenges traditional notions of men's health by offering a holistic approach to wellness. Dr. Gapin provides strategies for optimizing testosterone levels, improving lifestyle choices, and achieving limitless vitality. The book emphasizes personalized health plans using advanced medical techniques like hormone optimization and peptide therapy.
In this special Asprey Archive episode you’ll learn that while yes, testosterone fuels energy and performance, it’s not the be-all and end-all solution for men’s health woes. A systems biology approach considers many other aspects and provides a broader perspective about what’s going on with you.
This conversation features board-certified urologist Tracy Gapin, M.D. He joined us in 2022 for this episode to discuss new ways for men to improve their health and performance. He uses epigenetic coaching, hormones, peptide therapy, biometric monitoring, and unique nutrition and lifestyle interventions.
In his book, “Male 2.0™: Cracking the Code to Limitless Health and Vitality,” he says medical school, residency training and even a two-decade career in urology and surgery specialties didn’t teach him how to get to root causes of men’s issues and solve them. He had a health crash of his own at 42. Since neither he nor his doctor had good answers, he went on a quest of discovery and change.
He founded the Gapin Institute for High Performance Medicine and created the proprietary N1 Performance Health Program to go beyond conventional options.
This conversation goes even further into what creates epigenetic signals that affect the function and expression of your genes. You’ll learn, too, that your mindset, stress and environment—and how you do or don’t control those things—have everything to do with your energy and focus. If you’re aiming for higher performance, Dr. Tracy suggests a trifecta that makes sleep a priority, builds resilience to stress, and creates consistent behaviors with intention.
