In Part 2 of this powerful conversation, we continue the journey beyond quitting Adderall to unlocking true high performance through deep physiological awareness. I sit down with Carlos and Miguel Bertonatti to unpack the essential metrics of health—VO₂ max, HRV, and body composition—and how mastering these can transform the way you recover, perform, and live.

We explore why most high performers are stuck in chronic stress without realizing it, how proper sleep can become your greatest biohack, and how breathwork is the secret weapon to regulate your nervous system anytime, anywhere. This episode dives into the science of stress adaptation, the role of muscle as the "organ of longevity," and simple, actionable strategies to regain control over your biology.

If you're serious about optimizing your mind, body, and performance without gimmicks—this is your roadmap. Tune in to learn how real resilience is built from the inside out.
