Woah. I’m somewhere in the middle here. Even though not at all super optimizer, I do think Bryan has brought on many more people towards even just starting to think about optimizing their daily lives. But Nassim has a point.

also blood in extremities like fingers not the best place to measure hr during a workout :)

oura3 is the best for sleep afaik. but doesn't work for me b/c can't do rings at the gym. also i had two other problems with oura: 1. lost the ring easily 2. battery dies to 0% after 1-1.5years

one thing i liked about garmin: they integrate with other devices so you can wear a external hr monitor and connect to your garmin

got a garmin to try and after 2-weeks can confirm: 1. nothing beats apple watch when it comes to accuracy across hr and sleep (while compared to medical grade devices). 2. garmin better at gps and battery. 3. for weightlifting, just use a chest strap eg polar h10.

easy to shit on @bryanjohnson but Don't Die touches on something no one wants to talk about: depression amongst men across generations and how exercise and diet are the most impactful cure to break the chain. if you are a guy whose dad/grandfather had any hints of depression: 1. exercise 2. eat clean 3. read this book

minus my fav commentator missing, i have enjoyed live sports on streaming services. i feel they have a lot more design space for these experiences than live/analog tv. given how poorly espn, et al are doing. i see a convergence of sports, streaming and such ^ experiences into something new

too much protein and supplements are killing your kidneys/liver b/c they're overclocked. clinical over clean sounds nice but isn't holistic
