Joe De Sena writing from Austin, TX this week, where I'm a guest speaker at Dave Asprey's Biohacking Conference. The theme is Live Beyond 180.
I told the crowd this: You want to talk about biohacks? I've got one. One that's free, ancient, and undefeated. It's called discomfort. You won't need a PhD to understand this shxx and experience its incredible effects either:
Heavy carries Long miles Cold water Salad Daily controlled suffering
You don't need pills or a device to activate your body's innate superpowers, you need to apply the above forms of resistance. You need pain with purpose.
Don't mistake that this is just about physical endurance, it's actually a nervous system reset. Studies have shown that this drives a sort of "mental cleansing" which in turn is the ultimate hormone regulator.
You want more energy, less inflammation, lower body fat, more strength, stronger cells, and clearer focus? Do hard things. DAILY.
Everyone in that room wants to live to 180. But I want them to realize there's no magic pill. They are gonna have to earn it with iron discipline. And I told them exactly that.
So if you're ready to get serious, join us. The Spartan Run Club isn't a hobby jog, it's a metabolic furnace. This week's 5 beginner to intermediate strength and conditioning workouts will build the strength you need for true longevity. And if you're ready to take your mind and body to the next level, get your butt to one of the hundreds of Spartan events around the world ASAP.
Discomfort is the biohack. The Hard Way is the path.
Go on.
Joe | | | NIGHT IN THE SNOW | Thirty below. No tent. No fire. Just snow and a cliff we couldn't descend. I shook so bad I stopped thinking straight. That's when you stop caring if you live or die—because at least dying ends the misery. By morning, we ice-climbed 1,500 feet down with no gear. I was in that "don't care if I die" state. But everything else in my life felt easy compared.

- Eliza W.
A: Every morning, I wake up around 4:45 a.m., drink a few glasses of water, and dive into my 15 daily exercises, at least 50 reps each. This routine keeps me injury-free, flexible, and mobile. Purposeful suffering builds resistance and something we call obstacle immunity, so when things get really tough, you won't quit when it really counts.
Aroo!
