  • Using Play to Rewire & Improve Your Brain | Episode 58
    In this episode, I discuss the transformative nature of play—how it changes our feelings, thoughts and actions and indeed, how it can rewire our brain to function better in all contexts. I explain the role of play in childhood, as well as adulthood in skill and social development and describe key characteristics of the mind and body during play. Additionally, I explore how play allows the brain to test contingencies in different roles/environments. Throughout, I discuss the underlying neurobiology of play. I also describe how low-stakes play, and tinkering can broaden and shape your future capabilities. Finally, I discuss how our childhood ‘personal play identity’ informs our adult personality. Throughout the episode, I use the science of play to outline recommendations for using play as a means to enhance neuroplasticity and explore novel situations, regardless of age.

  • How to Shift Out of the Midlife Malaise
    When you think about someone having a midlife crisis, you probably think of a man getting divorced, stepping out with a younger woman, and buying a sports car. But my guest today says the often jokey, mockable trope of the midlife crisis we have in our popular culture discounts the fact that the sense of dissatisfaction people can feel in their middle years is quite real, and that the questions it raises are profond, philosophical, and worth earnestly grappling with.

  • 1739: How to Get Stronger in the Big 3 Lifts, Ways to Correct Knee Pain When Squatting, What to Do If Your Right & Left Side Don’t Match & More
    MInd Pump


    Podcast Notes Key Takeaways
    • The ideal program for your body is always individualized – if you purchase pre-written programs, run through the first time as written for a baseline then change based on your body and goals
    • Regularly practice lifts you want to improve at lighter weights to nail down technique – that will allow you to identify sticking points, correct, and eventually increase weight
    • The hips and ankles move in many planes of motion – the knee only moves in one – when it lacks stability, it shifts around and depends on ligaments to stabilize and causes pain and problems
    • “Tightness is your body’s way of trying to create stability where there isn’t any.” – Sal
    • It’s an old school chiropractor move to say that your left and right side aren’t the same length – get checked out by a physician to assess whether there’s truly a difference in limb length
    • Often what we think are significant imbalances or differences in lengths of limbs are just tightness in muscles
    • For in-season and offseason training, keep incorporating the adaptation you’re pursuing (e.g., keep doing cardio if training for a race)
    • In season, your goal is to manage stress on the body and avoid injury – not go for PRs and push training
    • Offseason is the time to push training and push performance
    • This can’t be stressed enough: be intentional about mobility work

  • Optimizing Workspace for Productivity, Focus, & Creativity | Huberman Lab Podcast #57
    In this episode, I discuss ways to set up your workspace to optimize productivity, focus and creativity. I discuss how to adjust light, physically arrange your work environment, and leverage body posture to enhance productivity. Additionally, I explore how to shift your work environment for particular types of tasks. Moreover, I review the role of body movement in the workspace. I also discuss sound-based tools that can either enhance or diminish cognitive functioning (the ability to focus on deep work). I describe a particular frequency of binaural beats that studies show can be used to enhance memory and recall. This episode covers quality peer-reviewed findings practical tools anyone can use, regardless of budget, in order to optimize their workspace to achieve heightened levels of productivity, increased alertness and focus, and creativity.
