Aerobic Health & Performance | How To Improve It?

Aerobic Health & Performance | How To Improve It?

Author: Pete Jacobs June 15, 2021 Duration: 29:37
If you have ever done ANYTHING to follow lifestyle improvements, breathing or mindset techniques, ANYTHING that is considered a healthier choice (by me haha) you are unknowingly doing something to either increase oxygen levels in the cell, or at least doing something that reduces oxygen levels by the least.

Your poor lifestyle and habits are lowering your cellular oxygen.

Low oxygen levels create a more ANAEROBIC environment in your mitochondria, where energy production occurs.

The worst thing for health, for all living things on earth, is chronic low levels of oxygen.

Aerobic is Health | Anaerobic is increased stress products, poor health, &

inefficient energy.

Oxygen is Key to Life

Inflammation lowers cellular oxygen

Stress lowers cellular oxygen

 

Very brief anaerobic exercise can be good (for some), but I'm talking about long term aerobic or anaerobic environments.

 

If you want to feel better, get fitter, be healthier, or perform better in everything you do, you need more oxygen in your cells.

I let you know how I got 'fitter' without even exercising.

I explain deeper theories around aerobic and MAF exercise, and how breathing rate is more important than heart rate.

 

1 Breathing influences cellular oxygen 

2 inflammation lowers cellular oxygen

3 Oxidative stress lowers cellular oxygen

4 Stress lowers cellular oxygen

 

All life on earth needs oxygen. At the top of everything your lifestyle habits are trying to change/improve, they are all under the category of "ways to increase oxygen in your cells and mitochondria"

 

Finding a sustainable path to better health often feels like navigating a maze of conflicting advice. Live Your Own Fit | LYF Performance cuts through that noise with grounded conversations led by Pete Jacobs, a World Ironman Triathlon Champion, and his wife Jaimielle. This isn't just about extreme athleticism; it's about the practical, balanced choices that build a resilient life. You'll hear discussions that connect the dots between nutrition, daily movement, and the mental frameworks needed to stick with it. Pete naturally draws from his own journey to the pinnacle of endurance sports, not to prescribe a champion's regimen, but to share the broader lessons on mindset and perseverance that apply to anyone. The podcast operates on the principle that true fitness is deeply personal-it's the energy to keep up with your kids, the clarity to focus at work, and the vitality to enjoy your days. Each episode offers a blend of personal anecdotes, actionable lifestyle tips, and thoughtful dialogue aimed at helping you define what performance means in your own life. Tune in for a refreshingly honest take on building health from the ground up, where the goal is lasting well-being, not just a temporary fix.
