Does your body feel stiff when you wake up? Back hurt when you sit too long? Knees click when you squat? You've been told this is normal aging - but it's a lie.

The fitness industry has been feeding you lies for decades. Lies about stretching, aging, strength training, and what your body actually needs to be strong and resilient. And these lies are keeping you weak, stiff, and in pain.

Your body is not fragile. It's not broken. It's not failing you. It's adapting perfectly to whatever you expose it to. The fitness industry has convinced you that your body needs to be fixed, treated, manipulated, or forced into compliance. But your body doesn't need to be fixed. It needs to be challenged, loaded, moved - given the stimulus it requires to maintain capability and resilience.This isn't about becoming an athlete. This isn't about performance or aesthetics. This is about maintaining your basic human right to move without pain and limitation, to be capable in your own body, to age without falling apart. And you can do that at any age, starting from any baseline.

The hits keep coming. That's not pessimism - that's just being alive.

Your body will break down. Someone you love will leave. A dream you invested everything in will fail. You'll do everything right and still lose.Here's the fork in the road: Some people experience that and it ends them. Others use it as raw material to build something stronger.In this episode, I break down what resilience actually is (hint: it's not toxic positivity), why some people have it and others don't, and the exact 48-hour protocol I use to bounce back from major setbacks.You'll discover how physical training builds mental capacity, why voluntary discomfort is crucial for resilience, and the specific steps to turn breakdown into breakthrough.This isn't about never falling - it's about building the mental architecture to get back up every single time.Because the opportunities only come to people who are still standing.

Your sleep problem isn't actually a sleep problem.

Most people think their 3AM wake-ups are about stress or overthinking. But what if it has nothing to do with 3AM and everything to do with how you spent your day?

Seven hours of sitting without moving your spine. Shallow breathing all afternoon. Hips locked up from the same angle all day long. Your nervous system is doing its best, but you didn't set it up for success.

In this episode, I break down how real movement throughout your day builds the foundation for deep, restorative sleep. Not melatonin, not supplements, not hacks - just understanding how your body's rhythms actually work.

You'll discover why your body stays in "surveillance mode" even when you're sleeping, the simple movement patterns that tell your nervous system it's safe to rest, and how to reclaim the natural sleep your body is designed for.

When you move well, you sleep well. And when you sleep well, everything else gets easier.

When did you stop playing? Most adults can't remember. You didn't outgrow it. You were conditioned out of it. And that's why your body is stiff, weak, and fragile. Play isn't childish. It's how you build a nervous system that adapts to chaos, a body that moves without fear, and strength that actually translates to real life. This episode breaks down why structured exercise makes you strong in straight lines but brittle everywhere else, and how wrestling, crawling, climbing, and rolling aren't hobbies but medicine for a body that's forgotten how to be human.

Vanja watched her 85-year-old grandmother squat in the garden for an hour, then stand up without using her hands. Meanwhile, most 40-year-olds can't hold that position for 30 seconds. This episode dismantles the lie that decline is inevitable. It's not ageing that breaks people—it's decades of neglect disguised as "getting older." Vanja shares the seven non-negotiables for building a body that lasts, why your choices today are writing the story of your 80-year-old self, and what cultures with centenarians do differently. Your future body is counting on you.
