In this episode of Metabolic Mastery, Dr. Marc Humbert and Dr. Cameron Garber take a deep dive into how to train for a long, healthy, and active life. Instead of obsessing over quick results or "goal metrics," they explain why focusing on sustainable "process metrics" creates better outcomes over decades—not just weeks. You'll learn how to set up your training, recovery, and lifestyle habits so you can stay in the game for years, avoid burnout and injury, and keep doing the activities you love at every stage of life.

What You'll Learn in This Episode:

  • The key differences between goal metrics (e.g., weight loss, race times) and process metrics (e.g., heart rate zones, sleep quality).

  • Why consistency beats intensity for long-term health and performance.

  • How to build a 30-year health plan that balances exercise, recovery, nutrition, and stress management.

  • How VO2 testing and heart rate zones help personalize training for better results.

  • The 80/20 principle for polarized training and why it prevents burnout and injury.

  • How to adapt your training through life's seasons without losing progress.

  • Why "starting where you're at" matters more than jumping to your end goal.

  • Ways to spot and address early warning signs of overtraining, fatigue, or poor recovery.

  • How to measure success by moments and experiences—not just numbers.

  • Why building supportive habits and environments beats chasing quick fixes.
