Today, I am blessed to have here with me Zane Griggs. He is an Optimal Health & Longevity Consultant, an expert in the field of health focusing on preventing diseases, slowing aging, and living longer. 

In his 20s, Zane started lifting in college, and like many young adults, he ate whatever he wanted and took junk supplements. But in his mid-20s, he began to think more about health and eventually focused on longevity. Now, Zane is helping people improve their metabolic health and fitness and offers practical strategies for unlocking optimal health and longevity. 

Zane Griggs is the author of the book "Low Carb Lifestyle & Weight Loss Made Simple" and his newest release, “Kicking Ass After 50,” which tackles how you can get optimal health at your age. 

In this episode, Zane Grigs discusses why you should prioritize having longevity goals rather than performance and fitness goals. He also talks about why nutrition and focusing on your diet first is important. Additionally, he also shares his thoughts on testosterone injections. Tune in as we chat about longevity goals over performance and fitness goals, sleep, nutrition, diet, the power of zero calcium score, and testosterone injections.

[9:41] Why Having Longevity Goals Better Than Performance and Fitness Goals? 

-       Fitness goals are driven by initial vanity, and performance goal mainly focuses on eating to improve your performance. But both goals do not translate to longevity.

-       For longevity, you need to consider how your eating and doing affect certain markers in your bloodwork.

-       Body scans and blood work should be superior to having a good outward appearance.

-       You can have fitness and performance goals, but longevity goals should be prioritized.

[17:53] Sleep, Nutrition, & Diet: Which One is The Most Important?

-       Start with your diet first.

-       Diet is what you do. Every day, it's a conscious effort. It's where you start balancing your hormones out.

-       If you start exercising, most people will get hungry, which goes back to the diet.

[24:06] Get a Calcium Score and Strive to Achieve The Power of Zero

-       Zane has a zero-calcium score with his animal meat diet.

-       Everyone should have a goal of getting a zero score on calcium score.

-       The calcium score is the ultimate test to see if you are at risk.

-       It’s important for people to get a calcium score.

[32:53] Testosterone Injections: Should You Do It or Avoid It?

-       Once you get past your late 40s to 50s, you can be optimizing all of your lifestyle habits and still have a free testosterone level in the single digits, and there's not much more you can do to improve it.

-       What happens when testosterone is low is that it’s more about personal drive and libido, creativity, brain fog, and your ability to focus.

-       It’s up to men to decide.

-       Hormone replacement therapy is a game changer for men and women in their 50s or 60s.

-       Hormone replacement therapy should never be a substitute for poor lifestyle choices. 

[47:12] Kicking Ass After 50: The Book Is Written for Men, But What about Women?

-       Every principle in the book regarding diet, exercise and sleep applies to humans.

-       Whatever a guy would do to optimize his testosterone would work for optimizing any sex hormone.

-       The book talks revolve around men, but if you’re a woman and it doesn’t bother you, read it by all means.

-       What guys want to consume is something that is concise, easy to put in place, and straight to the point. But certainly, all the information applies to men and women of all ages.

 

AND MUCH MORE!
