OCT 8, 202676 MIN

Description

Rip sits down with longtime friend, former triathlon coach and Primal Kitchen founder, Mark Sisson, for a wide-ranging conversation about biohacking, longevity, chronic cardio, walking and foot health. Rip and Mark go back more than three decades — and although their nutritional philosophies couldn't be much more different, Rip has always admired Mark's entrepreneurial spirit, curiosity and willingness to take risks. In this episode, Mark explains: - Why he calls biohacking “the day trading of health” - Why he believes the basics should come before gadgets and supplements - His problem with chronic cardio - Why he favors lots of easy movement plus occasional high-intensity work - How his own endurance career changed his thinking about exercise - Why he now walks at least 45 minutes most days - Why mobility matters so much for longevity - Why he believes foot health has been largely ignored - How Peluva grew out of his own search for better footwear - Why maintaining strength, balance and movement matters more and more as we age - What decades of entrepreneurship have taught him about taking risks Two old-school triathletes. Two very different approaches to food. And plenty of common ground around one big idea: Keep moving for life.
