If you want to live a longer, healthier life, you’re going to LOVE today’s episode!
Joel Jamieson is not only a great friend, but someone that has really started to make a mark in the longevity space. He was recently featured on Dr. Peter Attia’s podcast where they took a deep dive into everything HRV.
But you may know him as a trusted expert in strength, conditioning, and energy systems for combat sports.
His book, Ultimate MMA Conditioning, is one of the best S&C reads of all time, and he’s spent the past 20 years coaching world champion athletes.
He’s also consulted extensively for teams and organizations including the Navy SEALS, UFC champions, and professional sports teams from the NFL, NBA, MLS, and NCAA.
And in this episode, we’re going to dive into a ton of health-related topics to help YOU live a longer, healthier life!
Lifting weights serves a very important purpose, but it is not building cardiovascular fitness.
– Joel Jamieson
This Week on the Physical Prep Podcast:
What’s new with Joel since the last time we chatted.
How he’s shifted and evolved away from solely combat sports training to more longevity-focused content.
The things EVERY 40+ year old should be focusing on to live a longer, healthier life.
Things you should be considering when trying to stave off cardiovascular disease (CVD).
The role genetics play in your health, and why you have to dig deeper on your own genetic structure.
Joel’s serious health scare, and what he’s had to do to fight his family history of CVD.
Why Zone 2 cardio IS NOT as easy as just lifting weights for extended periods of time.
Do women need more – or less – Zone 2 training than men?
The power of training the individual, not the gender.
ONE THING Joel wish everyone learned from his podcast with Dr. Peter Attia.
