Dr. Lloyd Camper joins Augmented Wellness for a practical conversation about longevity, sports medicine, Cenegenics, and what it means to build a real healthspan baseline before the warning light comes on.

Lloyd is a board-certified family medicine and sports medicine physician, a former collegiate athlete, a longevity physician with Cenegenics, and an advisor to Betterness. We talk about exercise as medicine, why traditional care often begins only when something is already wrong, how blood work, DEXA, VO2 max, recovery, and habits fit together, and how Bett-i can help make health data easier to organize before a clinician visit.

This episode includes a live look at Demian's own DEXA and VO2 max reports as an example of how a doctor and a personal AI agent can turn scattered health data into better questions.

We also turn the episode into a public artifact: a Healthspan AI Interviewer. It is a markdown system you can use with Claude, ChatGPT, Codex, a local agent, or any LLM to organize goals, history, reports, labs, DEXA, VO2 max, habits, recovery, and clinician questions before a visit. Connect Betterness when you want that context enriched by permissioned labs, reports, wearables, goals, and lifestyle data.

Ulisses Abbud spent 13 years competing as a professional cyclist. Today he is a high-performance coach, researcher, endurance athlete, and physiology thinker working with athletes, executives, and people trying to understand how performance and longevity actually work.

In Episode 002 of Augmented Wellness, we go deep on recovery: why it is not a luxury, why it is not the reward, and why it may be the missing operating system for founders, executives, and anyone whose mind never really shuts down. We talk about HRV, cortisol, resting heart rate, overtraining, metabolism, nutrition, gravel cycling, Girona training camps, community, and the difference between training from fear and training from love.

We also turn the episode into a public artifact: a Cycling + Recovery AI Interviewer. It is a markdown system you can use with Claude, ChatGPT, Codex, a local agent, or any LLM to understand the person behind the training data before reacting to HRV, sleep, fatigue, or training load. Connect Betterness when you want that context enriched by permissioned wearable, training, lab, goal, and lifestyle data.

Martin Varsavsky has founded six unicorns over 35 years — across telecom, fertility, and now medical AI. In Episode 001 he walks through Certuma — his bid to build an AI physician that earns regulatory trust rather than routing around it, with the stated goal of passing the FDA and a doctor kept in the loop (it is not approved today). He explains how he closed a $10M seed round with AI as his only co-founder, why he cycles 14 hours a week at 66, and how he built "Pedro," a disclosed AI version of himself that posts on his X timeline. We turn it into BetterX: a public, guarded social-autopilot starter kit you can fork.

What runs through it: that AI can legally extend a doctor's knowledge to make care more accessible — Martin's bet with Certuma, on the path to FDA approval with a physician always in the loop — and that an AI trained on you for long enough starts to become you (his disclosed persona "Pedro," two months in the making). Underneath both: risk is relative once you've faced the real thing.

Build the artifact: BetterX — a guarded social-autopilot starter kit (forks with autonomy OFF by default and a review queue, so nothing posts without you).
