I think all listeners can agree that this series shouldn’t stop. Andrew is obviously very interested in physical performance and Andy’s knowledge/ability to explain performance physiology is unparalleled. Ive already listened to the whole series up til today 4 times.
Would definitely love to see more of these two collaborating! Maybe a series where you’re actually training together, showing their respective exercise choice for their respective goals, and going through their specific modifiable variables, and showing how you’ve progressed over time. I personally would love to see that, anyone else?
Every time Andy says “we could do a whole series / discussion on this” I’m just chanting inside (do it do it) 🤩🤩🤩 This series has been such a blessing!
This is not a podcast anymore. This is full blown University grade course by World top lecturers. It is still hard to grasp for me that from my lowly upbringing and remoteness I am able to access this level of knowledge and understanding. I am very grateful. You two and your teams are a gift to the World.
I wasn’t planning on crying on the treadmill as I finished this episode. Thank you Dr. Andy and Dr. Huberman for using your wisdom, knowledge and resources to educate us. Your passion for this topic is palpable. I’ve been battling from depression and generalized anxiety most of my life. Am currently going through a very challenging time in my life, and this series brought back my thirst for fitness and wellness. This has resulted in healthier ways of coping through stressful times. Big hugs!
To me, these six episodes are by far the best of Huberman Lab's podcast, which is already great. Any person interested in, practising or training other people in fitness should listen to this series, ideally to all six episodes. Dr Galpin's last words of this sixth episode are very touching. Thank you Prof. Huberman and Dr. Galpin for bringing this knowledge and these tools for free to all of us.
Dr. Galpins final words of gratitude to Andrew literally has me in tears!! It really is beautiful to witness their relationship and interactions during this series. They have a flow with one another that is easy to listen to, educational and just special!! Thank you both and looking forward to future dialog between you two❤
20 years with zero moving, 2 months into swimming + cutting smoking by 3, and I cannot thank you enough both gentlemen for the amazing wealth of knowledge generously curated for us mere mortals
How Andy organizes his knowledge and keeps subtopics in context of specific goals is unparalleled in clarity. This series got me hooked forever on Huberman Lab. I listened to it and certain parts over and over. Now watching, I’m amazed how Andy has accumulated and processed so much information in a way that makes things easy to understand and implement. So much gratitude for you both
It's so crazy how fast 6 weeks went by, I'm not sure what I'm going to do with my Wednesday mornings now. As always THANK YOU BOTH, for taking the time and effort both on and off screen for your contribution in engaging the general public in science in general and the world of sports physiology.
How incredibly beautiful and emotional those last minutes were. Science is made by people, not by rigid lab coats. You both are an N of 1 in your fields. Thank you for this great gift.
I want to take a moment to appreciate the effort and time Huberman and Galpin has put forth towards educating people. I've finished all 6 episodes and got enormous information in fitness and longevity. I am hoping for more Galpin equations and similar terms getting coined by Huberman in future. Thanks to you both. I absolutely loved it!
When should you take Berberine? At night after you finish your last meal and before you go to bed? Or in the morning when you wake up and wish to prolong your fast?
Just Finished all six episodes. Andy provided an encyclopedia of knowledge to the listeners. I will be starting from the beginning again. Incredibly valuable. Thank you.
I just teared up at you guys thanking each other. Like Andy said, I'm so happy science has made it, and you are doing this wonderful service for me and the world. Thank you.
I was diagnosed with Hashimoto hypothyroid 8 months ago and have been on a fitness and health journey to correct it. I cannot emphasize how helpful this series has been and continues to be for my training.
Hey buddy, been diagnosed with hashimotots since I was 12 (now 30) you can't correct it but you can't eat foods and avoid certain foods to make yourself feel better. Hope that helps and good luck on your fitness journey
I've just finished this series and plan to go over the entire thing again starting tomorrow. I was deeply touched by the last kind words you shared towards each other, to us listeners and to the world of science. Dr. Galpin was very emotional at the end; I've never seen him like that in all of his attended podcasts. What you guys do will drive me to strive and become a true scientist, someone who sincerely loves and cares about the science, someone who's willing to share the vast array of knowledge and tools and someone who will go out of his way to give credits to others who deserve them and improve together as a team/community.
This was by far one of the best podcast series I've listened to. It felt like I was taking a lecture series in college that I was super excited about. Thank you both for your time.
As a physiotherapist in Australia, I want to say thank you for this series! This not only helps me grow my own health and fitness goals, but it gives me additional knowledge to pass onto clients to improve their recovery and overall health! Thank you Andrew & Dr Galpin!

Such a touching moment at the end, Andy choking up and almost crying. You can tell how passionate he is about his work and his friendship with Andrew. Great series. I love this podcast, it has really changed my life 😄
You may say you profess, not prescribe but I can tell you that you two have done more for my health than any MD that I have ever been to. Truly, thank you both.
As a Physiotherapist, my understanding of exercise physiology has been enhanced by Dr. Andy Galpin. This series was my travel partner for going to work and back. So much info to process and implement. Thank you for an amazing 6 episodes of incredible knowledge 💙.
the huberman lab podcast has single handledly completely changed my outlook on my health and fitness. I stopped smoking weed and stopped drinking liquor because of his episodes on each of those. Last time I took a sip of liquor was on November 6th 2022. I've been getting 8 hours of sleep per night, work out a minimum of 5 times per week and have purchased an AG1 subscription along with purchasing the momentous huberman lab "full complete product collection" package. Im super excited to add these suppliments to my daily routine an am beyond excited to see what my health will be like 6 months from now
@@Berserk1Manga You'd have to eat excessive amounts of red meat to have enough creatine One of the few supplements to 100% supplement as said in podcast.
@@Berserk1Mangano there is minimal amounts of creatine in red meat. You’d have to eat like 3-5 pounds of red meat to saturate your muscles adequtely with creatine
@@Berserk1Manga in my opinion eating that much red meat to get sufficient creatine, isn’t as beneficial long term as supplementing with creatine and eating moderate amounts of red meat.
This series was so unbelievably special. Thank you both Dr. Huberman and Dr. Galpin for setting aside the time to have these conversations and educate all of us. It still seems that we’ve only scratched the surface, and I’d love to see perhaps a “season two” of this a year or so from now as the science contributes to progress. These conversations are worth sharing with the world, and I thank you both for the work you do not only in your own personal research endeavors but also in striving to educate as much and as well as you can. It’s definitely made an impact on me personally and on many others as well.
This series was amazing. One of the best things this channel has. If Dr Andy Galpin could become a regular on the show this would be a great idea! Edit: These closing words between the two of you were the perfect end to such a journey. This makes me very happy that we live in this world.
Both Andy and Andrew are ideal examples of the outcome of consistency, discipline, and passion. Such material conveyed in this simple and unbiased form helps athletes test and improve through trials and errors.
I would love to see the two of you “podcast to failure.” 😂 After years of trying to assimilate information from so many different sources, this is - hands-down - the best resource I’ve ever encountered, and I am so thankful to you both. I am so grateful. I can’t agree more with the other commenters about how much I would love to hear more! (But please take time to recover.😂😂😂)
This episode is my second of the podcast and the first with Dr Galpin ! I am a 56 yo woman who loooves training and started 22 years ago with long running which brought me to marathon running. And cardio was my thing for a long time until I tried resistance training about 5 years ago. Gradually, I was able to adapt ( mentally, more than physically!)to running less and training more and more . Now, I run 2x/week and it’s OK . And I train 6x/ week . All your information on these episodes are soooo precious and I’m learning and, at the same time, validating what I know and what I’ve learned through my journey: exercise, strength, physical and mental ! I will now go back to episode 1 of this series and go though each one ! Thank you for all this
Many Thanks for the 6 part series. Taking me 4 days to watch the complete series and I learned so much. As an outrigger canoe paddler and age 60+, any edge for peak performance is key. I am a HUGE FAN and will share your amazing platform. Much Mahalo.
This series was EPIC and I'll be returning to parts of it REPEATEDLY to remind myself of different things, to support my own training and my clients' training even better. Am also definitely open to more and more from Andy on this show.
I hope Dr. Galpin will come back on the podcast. I listened to every episode twice and will probably listen many more times in the next years 😅 that's incredible how much valuable information you have provided for us. Thank you so so much and good luck with all your work! Sincerely
3:03:29 Andy's message at the end of the episode perfectly summed up everything you did in the 6 episodes and what you do with this podcast in general. Thank you!
I listened to all six episodes, I will go back to all of them more than once. I have been a recreational marathon runner for 30 years. I trained old school Bowerman LSR years ago when everyone was doing 16 weeks to marathon training, it was so nice to hear all that I learned and all that worked, explained by Andy. I think of our bodies as our own ongoing scientific project, which is great fun. I also go by the thought that most are up 16 hours a day, one hour of physical fitness anything is really nothing. Andy gave such great advice and examples of practical ways to get a bit of fitness/health in each day. Thank you both for sharing all that you do !
I can proudly say that I've listened to every second of these six long and rich episodes. I chucked my music playlist and plugged in these podcasts. It took me a few weeks but quite a hell of a journey. Id like to thank Andrew for graciously hosting - your passion for this area shows and Andy for patiently sharing your valuable knowledge. This podcast series is now my bible for anything related to fitness. Like Andy said, Id use it as a guidance. It was quite exhaustive and I'm now hunting for podcast notes that capture the nuggets of wisdom. Thanks to you guys, I've changed my whole work out program of years to include the various adaptations, improve my nutrition and sleep, chuck out a few supplements that I used to snack on. Again, great job fellas! You guys have made something of huge value here.
I am so excited the full series is now out, I'm expecting over the next 6 months to really find time to dive down into details I need to optimize my routine. Thank you both so much!
Dr. Galpin and of course Dr. Huberman are amazing resources to everyone. I am grateful for all the lessons that I’ve learned from this podcast. I have to say that people should definitely hydrate before going to a physical therapist for stretching. It was a bit offensive marginalizing the importance of hydrating before a physical therapy session.
This 6 episode series has been so informative and complex that I have to revisit it several times. I usually make time in weekends to listen to some episodes and take notes. I am more than grateful for this plethora of easy digestible info and data and protocols. THANK YOU!
I can't thank you two enough for the incredible knowledge shared with all of us last few weeks. I have these 6 episodes on repeat and have been listening to them and still have so much I learn everyday. In awe totally !!
Thank you both for creating this series of episodes loaded with so much scientific data and practical applications of it, it is GOLD for anybody who wants to be fit, healthy, or live long. It doesn't only give us protocols but the power of understanding the mechanisms behind those. Please come back with a second series on these topics, any number of hours spent listening to both are well invested so I'm sure that we'd just keep tuning in. Your podcasts have become my companion at the gym while doing the "boring" steady-state cardio, making it an interesting activity now. thanks!
I just finished listening to this series via podcast and I must say, it was incredible. More importantly, I want to say thank you to both you and Andy. I know how much of a time commitment this had to be. I learned so much from this series. I’ll definitely be integrating some of what I’ve learned here! Thank you!!
Blessed to have access to these lectures and high quality academic conversations. Good people change the world. I will pay it forward. Pleasure and privilege to earn my “Galpin Award.”
I just finished the entire series and I’m here for my plaque☺️ The very end was an unexpected surprise and I am so very grateful to the two of you for impacting my training in such a fantastic way. I will be implementing many of the recommended practices as I train for my next event!
Dr. Galpin has not just nailed his/this topic. He also analyzed perfectly why this podcast is so valuable - thank you so much for your words and, of course, thank you, Dr. Huberman! And for me it is even beyond the great information (not just in these episodes - I have watched every minute of it; it was incredible beneficial and changed the whole way I look at my training [working out for more than 20 years now]) and the incredible beneficial tools: For me it is also about great individuals having a respectful dialog without big egos etc. showing the world how great they truly are - proofing that the internet is no just for 30sec clips, bro-science and profit. I cannot thank you, Dr. Huberman (and Dr. Galpin as well), enough! I enjoy every minute of the journey. I´m really looking forward to read the transcripts and to hear the next episodes. Best regards from Germany
I didn't even finished listening to the other episodes and making my own program . You're giving an incredible amount of practical information it's a treasure available for no cost. Fitness influencers are going to be jobless now!Thank you a lot both.
I am starting at #6 for some reason. Prof. Andrew Huberman is a class act and a stellar example of a decent human being. His guest, Prof. Andy Galpin is clearly a mirror image. The knowledge I have gleaned from these two is exceptional. Thank you from the bottom of my (hopefully healthy) heart. Now on to the previous five podcasts…
THANK YOU BOTH! Not only did I listen to this series of 6 episodes, I intend to go back and listen again and take key notes. What a fantastic resource! This has also encouraged me to download Instagram , just so that I can get more information from you both…
I can't thank you enough for all the knowledge you and Dr. Andy Galpin provide us! As Dr. Andy said, yes we people, from other areas of knowledge, are not stupid and want to know the whys and the science behind what the experts tell us to do. As far as I am concerned, I cannot follow any advice, without knowing the foundation behind that advice, or recommendation. Even if it comes from a Doctor. I have to understand. That said, I love this podcast am I am profoundly grateful to you Dr. Andrew, for providing me scientific knowledge, for free, that otherwise I could only have access to if I go to college. THANK YOU FROM THE BOTTOM OF MY HEART! 🙏❤
As an athlete, as a student and as a human being I thank from the bottom of my heart for this series! Lifestyle changes, attitude to fitness and rehabilition, time management, nutrition... I could go on and on what changes I have or will implement after listening to this. And I can assure You - I will listen to the whole series multiple times during my entire life!🙏🤩🙌
The fact he can fluidly recall and succinctly explain all of this content in an interview is absolutely astounding. He could probably accurately cite all of his knowledge from memory as well. Incredible!
Just now completed the series with Andy. I rarely comment on anything but this is a special case. Current scientific facts on how to better your life presented by two amazing figures. Thank you for the work you both are doing. Probably difficult for you to fully comprehend the life-changing work you are doing for so many but it is appreciated.
Can't thank you enough Dr Huberman for all your great work. You're without question one of the greatest minds reaching society and making changes for the better. Another doctor that has also touched me personally and inspired real change, is Dr. Pradip Jamnadas, MD. I cannot implore you enough to have this great man as a guest doctor on an upcoming podcast. The symmetry on so many topics, as well as your end goals, ETC, are uncanny.
I'd envision a few hour discussion simply on lipopolysaccharides causing systemic disease such as: Depression, fatty liver, insulin resistance (& overall) hormonal in-balance, leaky gut leading to a breach in the blood brain barrier, leading to inflammation of astrocytes causing small vessel disease, phenotypes of depression, "etc, etc, 😅"
I’ve been patiently waiting for this episode 🥰 thank you for this series. I added 60 min hike and 10 min HIIT to my regular work out and I feel so much better already. Plus morning sunlight 😊
Listened to all 6 episodes and it was a joy to hear you guys meticulously dissect these subjects in a way that was entertaining and easy to understand for non-scientists. Will have to revisit them to incorporate all those gems in to daily life. Thank you both for gifting us such a wealth of knowledge.
Thank you so much Dr. Galpin! I learned much more about fitness from this series than I have over the course of my entire lifetime trying to cobble together protocols from personal research. The complexity of this field needed a real master like you to do justice to all the nuance and fine detail that you can't get from shorter videos. You were absolutely the right man to be in that chair, and you and Dr. Huberman have done a great service to humanity with this series, thank you!
Every interview podcast, AH shows what healthy, deeply appreciative, respectful relationships look like. Amongst the countless tools I have learned and implemented from his podcasts, that is to me his greatest contribution. Thank you both so much! Invaluable metrics. :) Thank you to all those behind the scenes too!
Truly, Dr. Huberman and Dr.Galpin have created a unique and very special bond that we have the privilege of being able to share in real time with them. Dr.H is such a wonderful interviewer, he always asks every question that I want to know and he is a great listener. I can't get enough of the long format and excellent presentations he has provided for free. As a life long learner and health care professional and a mom of a young professional athlete, I weekly listen to these" Master Courses"for pleasure, academic enrichment and information to share with my patients and my favorite athlete regularly . The opportunity to listen to him daily is one my favorite things to do while walking first thing in the morning. I look forward to seeing him live one day. I don't watch TV but I do watch and binge watch this channel and other like it regularly .
Congratulations and a big thank you to you both for such wonderful work that is of immense value. The way you ended the series by thanking each other with so much emotion was impressive and deeply touching ♥️
As a public servant and educated I’m honored to be fallowing you and bringing people like Dr.Andy Galpin. He is an amazing person and overall professor.
Don't worry Andy, I choked up too at the end :) Thanks both of you for taking the time to distill your vast knowledge and expertise to us regular folk who share an interest in science, health, fitness, and overall well-being. I've already incorporated many of your suggestions into my lifestyle and will certainly be referring back to this series and sharing it with others many more times! THANK YOU!
Fighting back tears of absolute gratefulness at the end of this one. Hung in for all 6 of these episodes and loved it. Huberman you aren't just providing us with an immense amount of insanely helpful tips you are changing lives. I will be forever grateful for finding your podcast and how it has improved my life. You are an incredible person with an incredible goal and I agree with the others you are a gift to the world.
Amazing and so so useful. Thank you both so much! I love this podcast and I reference it all the time. I have learned untold many things. I am sitting facing the sun shortly after waking up, sipping my second glass of water, learning awesome science with the two Andrews. Perfect start to my Saturday morning! Thank you both again. 🙏😊🙏
What an incredible journey I've had over the last month listening to and taking notes on all the 6 episodes! Learnt a wealth of information and actionable steps to address my lifelong fitness goals! Thank you Dr Huberman and Dr Galpin for this experience! It's time for action and results! (The ending was unexpectedly emotional even for me as an audience)
Really appreciate the time and work that went into this series. As someone in their 40's only starting their fitness and health journey now this has been the most valuable resource anyone could ask for.
Okay, I extract two informations for those patients: the ill modular effect needs to merge. The body is one unit. Very good diagnostic by Mr. Huberman. Very good. He is a very helpful professor. His patients are happy to have him. Very good.
I stay up too late and take notes … the info is GOLD. Then watch it again another time to see if I missed anything. Still riveted. So grateful I cannot even express.
Anybody else finds himself motivated to finish all his " To do list " just by watching another Huberman video ?? 😅🤓. Anyway Thank you Dr. Huberman for such a great content.
Wooow. This is a moment words can not describe the value of your works. Thanks, Prof. Andrew and Prof. Andy I watched and learned a lot of valuable science from you. I will start to listen to these podcasts again and again. with a lot of respect and love from Iran. Sincerely, Sajjad Ph.D. student in Kinesiology.
This was a really moving and impactful series! I'm so sad it's over, but so grateful for these 6 episodes. I love you both! Amazing discussions, thank you so much for what you gave to me and everyone!
Thank you so much, Dr. Huberman and Dr. Galpin for the wonderful time you have given me, as well as for the priceless knowledge!! It's been a real pleasure for me to be listening to your discussions, I could do it for 18 hours more :-) It is also awesome that you are making Queen Science ever more attractive for the people around the world :-) Thank you once again!

Recap by Tammy AI
After the six episodes i really feel like a student again, who was going through a semester of new things. I learned things i never thought i would get into ... never thought of going that deep ... never thought i would be interested in. But furthermore I'm really motivated to take care of my body even more than before (and already started) ... the funny thing is, that i don't have any problems on doing my workouts anymore, because i know why i'm doing them, and what's going on in my body ... so i couldn't thank you enough Dr. Andrew & Dr. Andy 🤗 ❤
This has been the most informative series I have ever heard. Will have to re-listen and go over my notes. Thank you so much Andrew and Dr. Galpin! When will the episode with Dr. Paul Saladino come? 🙏💪
Heart felt thanks to Dr Huberman and Dr Galpin for this series. I have listened every minute of it. I will have to listen to them again to increase my absorption. Keep educating.
Thank you for so much amazing content! I am getting back into shape after 2 kids in the last 2.5 yrs, and it's definitely more of a challenge to do so with limited time to workout and cook/meal prep. So having more information is helping me make the most of the time I do have! Thank you again! 😁
These series are great. Some of the most interesting content I have yet found on the internet regarding exercice/health/longevity. I love the respectful way you ask your questions and really give the opportunity to your guests to share their expertise. I'm a listener from Belgium. I have been obligated to do a lot of long drives lately to take care of my dying father and your highly informative content helps me to focus on something else during those drives and it makes them go by rather quickly. I then transmit a lot of what I learned to my dad once I get over to him and it gives us something to talk about. Sincerely: Thank you for all the great work you do.
If you watch it on TV or your computer, you can pause it and then dictate it into your phone. If you turn on the subtitles, you can just read from there. Easy Peezy. Hope that helps. I think my phone is going to explode from the amount of notes I’ve taken from the Huberman Lab podcast.
Sobering conversations. I've listened to each of these more than once and I'm sharing this with everyone I know. Praying that you have Andy on regularly.
Doc, of course everything you offer in your podcasts applies to aged folks -- over 70 years old -- but is it possible to devote a few minutes each time to how the current subject matter applies specificially to the aged? Thanks for your consideration.
Here's a couple of friendly tips 30 grams of creatine every day, take in 5 gram doses, spaced out. (This will prevent muscle loss) Animal protein Beef or Eggs 1 gram of protein per pound of body weight (you want to be at) (buy the highest quaility of animal protein you can afford) Vitamin D3 (morning time) 10,000 iU Vitamin A 10,000 iU (Palmitate) (Halibut Liver Oil) Vitamin K2 (MK-7) take 2 or 200mcg (+) Vitamin E 800iU Fish Oil Omega-3 (1-2 Tablespoons) Magnesium 300-500mg morning and night ((any ending in (ate) eg L-threonate)) (helps with sleep and muscles) Walking is the safest exercise you can do. Walking at a slow to medium speed will burn fat. Running only burns carbs. When working out, focus on not getting hurt and safe lifting. Do reps of 5 per set and take breaks and do more sets. Focus on volumn and not increasing your weights. Volumn as in more sets of the 5 reps. Get into a streamroom and or sauna if you can safely do so. Focus on getting 7-9 hours of sleep. Also do your best to eat at home, cook your own meals and avoid over eating (other than animal protein). Good luck - a 28 year old kid
I always would sweat so easy, and I hated it so much and as I got older, I jokingly would say I had a high-performance cooling system. now finding out that it’s actually true. It’s so cool.😎 I used to remember at soccer practice being completely soaked, and then my teammates, having beads of sweat on therefore head and I’m sitting here wondering “what the hell”😂
I have absolutely loved all six episodes! I’m a knowledge junky! I plan to completely change how I train for performance and overall health & longevity! I look forward to seeing how I progress along my journey utilizing the tests. Thank you so much Andrew & Andy for this gift!!!!
It would be nice if the subtitles would add the conversion from imperial to metrics. Half the time i have no idea what they mean when they throw imperial numbers and i am betting a good chunk of the viewers feel the same.
I was hesitating whether I should write this message but here I go. I am one of those who made sure to stay hydrated throughout the day. One time I heard this should also happen before we go to bed. Well, yesterday I decided to stop drinking water at around two hours before sleeping and I only woke up once!!!!! I am amazed!!! Thank you Andy and prof. Huberman!❤
Hilarious that Huberman talks directly about supplement companies not labeling how much of each component is in the blend, and skimping on the more expensively listed items in the blend, then referring back to AG1, YET AG1 LITERALLY DOES THE EXACT SAME THING!!! They hide behind “proprietary blends” to skimp on expensive components that they put on the label.
I think we can all ignore the AG one claims from every single one of these educators. It's probably some Chinese money or some crap and it does do a lot to fund these guys that we enjoy listening to. But just by virtue of listening to a lot of these we can assume that AG one is a nothing product That is made for people who are just beginning to think about their health.
I am a dietitian and have started listening to your podcasts in the last few weeks. My 25-year-old son first told me about you. I really enjoy all of your information and love the "sciencey" conversations. I also appreciate Dr. Galpin's information. I do work out and eat pretty well but have still learned a lot from your podcasts. You both do a great job at addressing women and men but one category of people that I do not hear addressed is older people. I am 56 years old so I guess I would be interested to hear about nutrition, exercise, and supplements for those over 50 population. thank you so much for bringing this knowledge to the public!
I think all listeners can agree that this series shouldn’t stop. Andrew is obviously very interested in physical performance and Andy’s knowledge/ability to explain performance physiology is unparalleled. Ive already listened to the whole series up til today 4 times.
I'd love that too...but it feels like they've covered everything "fitness and nutrition"
Agreed
Would definitely love to see more of these two collaborating! Maybe a series where you’re actually training together, showing their respective exercise choice for their respective goals, and going through their specific modifiable variables, and showing how you’ve progressed over time.
I personally would love to see that, anyone else?
Every time Andy says “we could do a whole series / discussion on this” I’m just chanting inside (do it do it) 🤩🤩🤩 This series has been such a blessing!
Absofuckinlutely ☺️
This is not a podcast anymore. This is full blown University grade course by World top lecturers.
It is still hard to grasp for me that from my lowly upbringing and remoteness I am able to access this level of knowledge and understanding. I am very grateful.
You two and your teams are a gift to the World.
I have been saying from the very beginning that I should be getting CME credits after listening to one of his podcasts!
World class sales pitch maybe
@@HkFinn83 selling what?
Yes! I’m grateful for this frfr
True
The two of you have been absolutely monopolizing my mornings lately. Thank you so much, Andrew and Andy.
While at the gym yes
@@jimmynolan5291 ❤
True! 😂 so I have reduced scrolling but am here
I wasn’t planning on crying on the treadmill as I finished this episode. Thank you Dr. Andy and Dr. Huberman for using your wisdom, knowledge and resources to educate us. Your passion for this topic is palpable.
I’ve been battling from depression and generalized anxiety most of my life. Am currently going through a very challenging time in my life, and this series brought back my thirst for fitness and wellness. This has resulted in healthier ways of coping through stressful times. Big hugs!
Crying?
Notice how Andy got emotional at the end, almost teared me up, you can see the sincerity in his eyes, such a great guy.
To me, these six episodes are by far the best of Huberman Lab's podcast, which is already great. Any person interested in, practising or training other people in fitness should listen to this series, ideally to all six episodes.
Dr Galpin's last words of this sixth episode are very touching.
Thank you Prof. Huberman and Dr. Galpin for bringing this knowledge and these tools for free to all of us.
Dr. Galpins final words of gratitude to Andrew literally has me in tears!! It really is beautiful to witness their relationship and interactions during this series. They have a flow with one another that is easy to listen to, educational and just special!! Thank you both and looking forward to future dialog between you two❤
Right?! These guys being great buds on top of the treasure trove of information provided was really icing on the cake.
they def cut onions with that one!
They banged after the pod
Same!!!!
@@InUrGirlwould love to see that!!
20 years with zero moving, 2 months into swimming + cutting smoking by 3, and I cannot thank you enough both gentlemen for the amazing wealth of knowledge generously curated for us mere mortals
How's your progress so far? How does it feel 9 months in? Status update!
@@PickledPrimate The struggle is real. Hangin in there.
Please keep this series going, I feel like there is much more to be discussed between you 2
I support this comment 100%
These bots are getting ridiculous
@@adamomiceli2017what bots
How Andy organizes his knowledge and keeps subtopics in context of specific goals is unparalleled in clarity. This series got me hooked forever on Huberman Lab. I listened to it and certain parts over and over. Now watching, I’m amazed how Andy has accumulated and processed so much information in a way that makes things easy to understand and implement. So much gratitude for you both
He is different level
It's so crazy how fast 6 weeks went by, I'm not sure what I'm going to do with my Wednesday mornings now. As always THANK YOU BOTH, for taking the time and effort both on and off screen for your contribution in engaging the general public in science in general and the world of sports physiology.
How incredibly beautiful and emotional those last minutes were. Science is made by people, not by rigid lab coats. You both are an N of 1 in your fields. Thank you for this great gift.
Read this before the end and thought, “oh whatever…” then listened to the last 2 minutes and felt a huge knot in my stomach. 😢
I want to take a moment to appreciate the effort and time Huberman and Galpin has put forth towards educating people. I've finished all 6 episodes and got enormous information in fitness and longevity. I am hoping for more Galpin equations and similar terms getting coined by Huberman in future. Thanks to you both. I absolutely loved it!
When should you take Berberine? At night after you finish your last meal and before you go to bed? Or in the morning when you wake up and wish to prolong your fast?
Just Finished all six episodes. Andy provided an encyclopedia of knowledge to the listeners. I will be starting from the beginning again. Incredibly valuable. Thank you.
I just teared up at you guys thanking each other. Like Andy said, I'm so happy science has made it, and you are doing this wonderful service for me and the world. Thank you.
I was diagnosed with Hashimoto hypothyroid 8 months ago and have been on a fitness and health journey to correct it. I cannot emphasize how helpful this series has been and continues to be for my training.
Study 5 minute body on fat hormone,thyroid re set
Hey buddy, been diagnosed with hashimotots since I was 12 (now 30) you can't correct it but you can't eat foods and avoid certain foods to make yourself feel better. Hope that helps and good luck on your fitness journey
I've just finished this series and plan to go over the entire thing again starting tomorrow. I was deeply touched by the last kind words you shared towards each other, to us listeners and to the world of science. Dr. Galpin was very emotional at the end; I've never seen him like that in all of his attended podcasts. What you guys do will drive me to strive and become a true scientist, someone who sincerely loves and cares about the science, someone who's willing to share the vast array of knowledge and tools and someone who will go out of his way to give credits to others who deserve them and improve together as a team/community.
This was by far one of the best podcast series I've listened to. It felt like I was taking a lecture series in college that I was super excited about. Thank you both for your time.
As a physiotherapist in Australia, I want to say thank you for this series! This not only helps me grow my own health and fitness goals, but it gives me additional knowledge to pass onto clients to improve their recovery and overall health! Thank you Andrew & Dr Galpin!

I wish they would directly say the ounce conversion to litres instead of having to look it up. But thanks for the summary!
This has been such an amazing series. Excited for the last episode! Definitely would love more deep dives like this with other subject experts
Such a touching moment at the end, Andy choking up and almost crying. You can tell how passionate he is about his work and his friendship with Andrew. Great series. I love this podcast, it has really changed my life 😄
You may say you profess, not prescribe but I can tell you that you two have done more for my health than any MD that I have ever been to. Truly, thank you both.
Totally agree
As a Physiotherapist, my understanding of exercise physiology has been enhanced by Dr. Andy Galpin. This series was my travel partner for going to work and back. So much info to process and implement. Thank you for an amazing 6 episodes of incredible knowledge 💙.
the huberman lab podcast has single handledly completely changed my outlook on my health and fitness. I stopped smoking weed and stopped drinking liquor because of his episodes on each of those. Last time I took a sip of liquor was on November 6th 2022. I've been getting 8 hours of sleep per night, work out a minimum of 5 times per week and have purchased an AG1 subscription along with purchasing the momentous huberman lab "full complete product collection" package. Im super excited to add these suppliments to my daily routine an am beyond excited to see what my health will be like 6 months from now
Just focus on your diet you don't need any supps. Especially the greens and creatine. Creatine is in red meat in adequate amounts.
@@Berserk1Manga You'd have to eat excessive amounts of red meat to have enough creatine
One of the few supplements to 100% supplement as said in podcast.
@@Berserk1Mangano there is minimal amounts of creatine in red meat. You’d have to eat like 3-5 pounds of red meat to saturate your muscles adequtely with creatine
Good job!
@@Berserk1Manga in my opinion eating that much red meat to get sufficient creatine, isn’t as beneficial long term as supplementing with creatine and eating moderate amounts of red meat.
This series was so unbelievably special. Thank you both Dr. Huberman and Dr. Galpin for setting aside the time to have these conversations and educate all of us. It still seems that we’ve only scratched the surface, and I’d love to see perhaps a “season two” of this a year or so from now as the science contributes to progress. These conversations are worth sharing with the world, and I thank you both for the work you do not only in your own personal research endeavors but also in striving to educate as much and as well as you can. It’s definitely made an impact on me personally and on many others as well.
This series should continue. Never learned so much about physical performance in the past six weeks. Thank you for making this cost-free
Dr. Huberman, you and the guests you interview are a gift to the world. I can’t believe I can view this level of content for free.
This series was amazing. One of the best things this channel has.
If Dr Andy Galpin could become a regular on the show this would be a great idea!
Edit: These closing words between the two of you were the perfect end to such a journey. This makes me very happy that we live in this world.
Both Andy and Andrew are ideal examples of the outcome of consistency, discipline, and passion. Such material conveyed in this simple and unbiased form helps athletes test and improve through trials and errors.
I would love to see the two of you “podcast to failure.” 😂 After years of trying to assimilate information from so many different sources, this is - hands-down - the best resource I’ve ever encountered, and I am so thankful to you both. I am so grateful. I can’t agree more with the other commenters about how much I would love to hear more! (But please take time to recover.😂😂😂)
This episode is my second of the podcast and the first with Dr Galpin ! I am a 56 yo woman who loooves training and started 22 years ago with long running which brought me to marathon running. And cardio was my thing for a long time until I tried resistance training about 5 years ago. Gradually, I was able to adapt ( mentally, more than physically!)to running less and training more and more . Now, I run 2x/week and it’s OK . And I train 6x/ week . All your information on these episodes are soooo precious and I’m learning and, at the same time, validating what I know and what I’ve learned through my journey: exercise, strength, physical and mental !
I will now go back to episode 1 of this series and go though each one !
Thank you for all this
Dr Galpin’s ability to explain complex concepts demonstrates his deep understanding. Awesome.
Many Thanks for the 6 part series. Taking me 4 days to watch the complete series and I learned so much. As an outrigger canoe paddler and age 60+, any edge for peak performance is key. I am a HUGE FAN and will share your amazing platform. Much Mahalo.
This series was EPIC and I'll be returning to parts of it REPEATEDLY to remind myself of different things, to support my own training and my clients' training even better. Am also definitely open to more and more from Andy on this show.
I hope Dr. Galpin will come back on the podcast. I listened to every episode twice and will probably listen many more times in the next years 😅 that's incredible how much valuable information you have provided for us. Thank you so so much and good luck with all your work! Sincerely
3:03:29 Andy's message at the end of the episode perfectly summed up everything you did in the 6 episodes and what you do with this podcast in general. Thank you!
I listened to all six episodes, I will go back to all of them more than once. I have been a recreational marathon runner for 30 years. I trained old school Bowerman LSR years ago when everyone was doing 16 weeks to marathon training, it was so nice to hear all that I learned and all that worked, explained by Andy. I think of our bodies as our own ongoing scientific project, which is great fun. I also go by the thought that most are up 16 hours a day, one hour of physical fitness anything is really nothing. Andy gave such great advice and examples of practical ways to get a bit of fitness/health in each day.
Thank you both for sharing all that you do !
That ending was beautiful. It's sad that it's over. I hope these two can pick more topics to dive deeper into discussion
I can proudly say that I've listened to every second of these six long and rich episodes. I chucked my music playlist and plugged in these podcasts. It took me a few weeks but quite a hell of a journey.
Id like to thank Andrew for graciously hosting - your passion for this area shows and Andy for patiently sharing your valuable knowledge.
This podcast series is now my bible for anything related to fitness. Like Andy said, Id use it as a guidance.
It was quite exhaustive and I'm now hunting for podcast notes that capture the nuggets of wisdom.
Thanks to you guys, I've changed my whole work out program of years to include the various adaptations, improve my nutrition and sleep, chuck out a few supplements that I used to snack on.
Again, great job fellas! You guys have made something of huge value here.
I am so excited the full series is now out, I'm expecting over the next 6 months to really find time to dive down into details I need to optimize my routine. Thank you both so much!
Dr. Galpin and of course Dr. Huberman are amazing resources to everyone. I am grateful for all the lessons that I’ve learned from this podcast. I have to say that people should definitely hydrate before going to a physical therapist for stretching. It was a bit offensive marginalizing the importance of hydrating before a physical therapy session.
This 6 episode series has been so informative and complex that I have to revisit it several times. I usually make time in weekends to listen to some episodes and take notes. I am more than grateful for this plethora of easy digestible info and data and protocols. THANK YOU!
I can't thank you two enough for the incredible knowledge shared with all of us last few weeks. I have these 6 episodes on repeat and have been listening to them and still have so much I learn everyday. In awe totally !!
You can train right, but if you have the wrong nutrition plan, you won't see any progress.
Thank you Andrew
Thank you both for creating this series of episodes loaded with so much scientific data and practical applications of it, it is GOLD for anybody who wants to be fit, healthy, or live long. It doesn't only give us protocols but the power of understanding the mechanisms behind those. Please come back with a second series on these topics, any number of hours spent listening to both are well invested so I'm sure that we'd just keep tuning in. Your podcasts have become my companion at the gym while doing the "boring" steady-state cardio, making it an interesting activity now. thanks!
I just finished listening to this series via podcast and I must say, it was incredible. More importantly, I want to say thank you to both you and Andy. I know how much of a time commitment this had to be. I learned so much from this series. I’ll definitely be integrating some of what I’ve learned here! Thank you!!
Blessed to have access to these lectures and high quality academic conversations. Good people change the world. I will pay it forward. Pleasure and privilege to earn my “Galpin Award.”
I just finished the entire series and I’m here for my plaque☺️ The very end was an unexpected surprise and I am so very grateful to the two of you for impacting my training in such a fantastic way. I will be implementing many of the recommended practices as I train for my next event!
Dr. Galpin has not just nailed his/this topic. He also analyzed perfectly why this podcast is so valuable - thank you so much for your words and, of course, thank you, Dr. Huberman! And for me it is even beyond the great information (not just in these episodes - I have watched every minute of it; it was incredible beneficial and changed the whole way I look at my training [working out for more than 20 years now]) and the incredible beneficial tools: For me it is also about great individuals having a respectful dialog without big egos etc. showing the world how great they truly are - proofing that the internet is no just for 30sec clips, bro-science and profit.
I cannot thank you, Dr. Huberman (and Dr. Galpin as well), enough! I enjoy every minute of the journey. I´m really looking forward to read the transcripts and to hear the next episodes.
Best regards from Germany
I didn't even finished listening to the other episodes and making my own program . You're giving an incredible amount of practical information it's a treasure available for no cost. Fitness influencers are going to be jobless now!Thank you a lot both.
I am starting at #6 for some reason. Prof. Andrew Huberman is a class act and a stellar example of a decent human being. His guest, Prof. Andy Galpin is clearly a mirror image. The knowledge I have gleaned from these two is exceptional. Thank you from the bottom of my (hopefully healthy) heart. Now on to the previous five podcasts…
THANK YOU BOTH! Not only did I listen to this series of 6 episodes, I intend to go back and listen again and take key notes. What a fantastic resource! This has also encouraged me to download Instagram , just so that I can get more information from you both…
I can't thank you enough for all the knowledge you and Dr. Andy Galpin provide us! As Dr. Andy said, yes we people, from other areas of knowledge, are not stupid and want to know the whys and the science behind what the experts tell us to do. As far as I am concerned, I cannot follow any advice, without knowing the foundation behind that advice, or recommendation. Even if it comes from a Doctor. I have to understand. That said, I love this podcast am I am profoundly grateful to you Dr. Andrew, for providing me scientific knowledge, for free, that otherwise I could only have access to if I go to college. THANK YOU FROM THE BOTTOM OF MY HEART! 🙏❤
What an incredible series. Thank you both so much for this invaluable public service. It’s life-affirming and gives me hope for humanity.
As an athlete, as a student and as a human being I thank from the bottom of my heart for this series! Lifestyle changes, attitude to fitness and rehabilition, time management, nutrition... I could go on and on what changes I have or will implement after listening to this. And I can assure You - I will listen to the whole series multiple times during my entire life!🙏🤩🙌
Really enjoying this series so far. Made several adjustments in my weekly workout routine, and am rewatching earlier segments to fine tune.
The fact he can fluidly recall and succinctly explain all of this content in an interview is absolutely astounding. He could probably accurately cite all of his knowledge from memory as well. Incredible!
Just now completed the series with Andy. I rarely comment on anything but this is a special case. Current scientific facts on how to better your life presented by two amazing figures. Thank you for the work you both are doing. Probably difficult for you to fully comprehend the life-changing work you are doing for so many but it is appreciated.
Besides watching Argentina won the soccer World Cup, this is the best content that you can get to improve performance. Thanks you!
OLE OLE OLE
Can't thank you enough Dr Huberman for all your great work. You're without question one of the greatest minds reaching society and making changes for the better. Another doctor that has also touched me personally and inspired real change, is Dr. Pradip Jamnadas, MD. I cannot implore you enough to have this great man as a guest doctor on an upcoming podcast. The symmetry on so many topics, as well as your end goals, ETC, are uncanny.
I'd envision a few hour discussion simply on lipopolysaccharides causing systemic disease such as: Depression, fatty liver, insulin resistance (& overall) hormonal in-balance, leaky gut leading to a breach in the blood brain barrier, leading to inflammation of astrocytes causing small vessel disease, phenotypes of depression, "etc, etc, 😅"
I’ve been patiently waiting for this episode 🥰 thank you for this series. I added 60 min hike and 10 min HIIT to my regular work out and I feel so much better already. Plus morning sunlight 😊
Thanks!
Listened to all 6 episodes and it was a joy to hear you guys meticulously dissect these subjects in a way that was entertaining and easy to understand for non-scientists. Will have to revisit them to incorporate all those gems in to daily life. Thank you both for gifting us such a wealth of knowledge.
Thank you so much Dr. Galpin! I learned much more about fitness from this series than I have over the course of my entire lifetime trying to cobble together protocols from personal research. The complexity of this field needed a real master like you to do justice to all the nuance and fine detail that you can't get from shorter videos. You were absolutely the right man to be in that chair, and you and Dr. Huberman have done a great service to humanity with this series, thank you!
Every interview podcast, AH shows what healthy, deeply appreciative, respectful relationships look like. Amongst the countless tools I have learned and implemented from his podcasts, that is to me his greatest contribution.
Thank you both so much! Invaluable metrics. :) Thank you to all those behind the scenes too!
Truly, Dr. Huberman and Dr.Galpin have created a unique and very special bond that we have the privilege of being able to share in real time with them. Dr.H is such a wonderful interviewer, he always asks every question that I want to know and he is a great listener. I can't get enough of the long format and excellent presentations he has provided for free. As a life long learner and health care professional and a mom of a young professional athlete, I weekly listen to these" Master Courses"for pleasure, academic enrichment and information to share with my patients and my favorite athlete regularly . The opportunity to listen to him daily is one my favorite things to do while walking first thing in the morning. I look forward to seeing him live one day. I don't watch TV but I do watch and binge watch this channel and other like it regularly .
Congratulations and a big thank you to you both for such wonderful work that is of immense value. The way you ended the series by thanking each other with so much emotion was impressive and deeply touching ♥️
As a public servant and educated I’m honored to be fallowing you and bringing people like Dr.Andy Galpin. He is an amazing person and overall professor.
Don't worry Andy, I choked up too at the end :) Thanks both of you for taking the time to distill your vast knowledge and expertise to us regular folk who share an interest in science, health, fitness, and overall well-being. I've already incorporated many of your suggestions into my lifestyle and will certainly be referring back to this series and sharing it with others many more times! THANK YOU!
Fighting back tears of absolute gratefulness at the end of this one. Hung in for all 6 of these episodes and loved it. Huberman you aren't just providing us with an immense amount of insanely helpful tips you are changing lives. I will be forever grateful for finding your podcast and how it has improved my life. You are an incredible person with an incredible goal and I agree with the others you are a gift to the world.
Amazing and so so useful. Thank you both so much! I love this podcast and I reference it all the time. I have learned untold many things. I am sitting facing the sun shortly after waking up, sipping my second glass of water, learning awesome science with the two Andrews. Perfect start to my Saturday morning! Thank you both again. 🙏😊🙏
What an incredible journey I've had over the last month listening to and taking notes on all the 6 episodes! Learnt a wealth of information and actionable steps to address my lifelong fitness goals! Thank you Dr Huberman and Dr Galpin for this experience! It's time for action and results! (The ending was unexpectedly emotional even for me as an audience)
Really appreciate the time and work that went into this series. As someone in their 40's only starting their fitness and health journey now this has been the most valuable resource anyone could ask for.
Okay, I extract two informations for those patients: the ill modular effect needs to merge. The body is one unit. Very good diagnostic by Mr. Huberman. Very good. He is a very helpful professor. His patients are happy to have him. Very good.
This series was pure gold, thank you Andrew and Andy! I would definitely buy a T-shirt if you guys designed one.
I stay up too late and take notes … the info is GOLD. Then watch it again another time to see if I missed anything. Still riveted. So grateful I cannot even express.
Anybody else finds himself motivated to finish all his " To do list " just by watching another Huberman video ?? 😅🤓. Anyway Thank you Dr. Huberman for such a great content.
Wooow. This is a moment words can not describe the value of your works. Thanks, Prof. Andrew and Prof. Andy I watched and learned a lot of valuable science from you. I will start to listen to these podcasts again and again.
with a lot of respect and love from Iran.
Sincerely,
Sajjad
Ph.D. student in Kinesiology.
This was a really moving and impactful series! I'm so sad it's over, but so grateful for these 6 episodes. I love you both! Amazing discussions, thank you so much for what you gave to me and everyone!
Thank you so much, Dr. Huberman and Dr. Galpin for the wonderful time you have given me, as well as for the priceless knowledge!! It's been a real pleasure for me to be listening to your discussions, I could do it for 18 hours more :-) It is also awesome that you are making Queen Science ever more attractive for the people around the world :-) Thank you once again!

05:57 🧠 *Creatine supplementation, beyond aiding muscle performance, also shows potential benefits for cognitive function, bone density, and various neurological conditions like Alzheimer's and Parkinson's.*
12:53 🕒 *Consistency is crucial with creatine; it needs time to accumulate in tissues, unlike stimulants that provide acute effects. Sleep deprivation studies indicate creatine might help alleviate cognitive effects from lack of sleep.*
14:30 🏋️ *Consistent supplementation and nutritional intake create a buoyancy that makes the body more resilient, fostering long-term benefits for health and performance.*
16:52 💊 *In Dr. Galpin's 80-20 rule, one can categorize supplements into fuel (like creatine), stimulants (e.g., caffeine), and fatigue blockers (such as beta-alanine), each with its own role in enhancing performance.*
23:21 💧 *Even a 2% body weight reduction via dehydration can significantly impact performance, affecting accuracy and exercise difficulty perception.*
25:29 ⚡ *Electrolyte balance (sodium, potassium, chloride) within and outside cells is crucial for muscle contraction and maintaining appropriate voltage levels.*
28:17 🚱 *Excessive water intake without electrolyte balance can disrupt sleep, focus, and digestion, causing adverse effects on health and well-being.*
31:09 🌊 *Hydration, electrolyte balance, and sodium levels significantly influence cellular functions, impacting hormone regulation and neurotransmitter activity.*
34:28 📊 *Monitoring nightly body weight fluctuation (float) and morning void can indicate hydration status, aiding in understanding water retention or dehydration.*
38:09 🏋️ *Fluid replacement after exercise should typically be around 125% of the fluid lost during the activity, which can vary based on individual factors and environmental conditions.*
40:01 🔋 *Electrolyte supplementation might be necessary depending on individual fluid intake, exercise routine, and environmental factors to maintain sodium, magnesium, and potassium levels.*
40:43 💧 *Sweating ability varies among individuals; some sweat more profusely than others, impacting heat dissipation during physical activity.*
44:39 💧 *Sweating variability is genetically influenced; individuals sweat differently even in the same training conditions.*
46:57 💉 *Blood chemistry tests and biomarkers like albumin can help determine hydration status and electrolyte needs.*
48:07 💧 *Hydrating during exercise isn't critical if body weight loss remains below two percent during the activity.*
50:25 💧 *Use the "Galpin equation" to calculate water intake during exercise: body weight in pounds divided by 30, in ounces, every 15-20 minutes.*
55:49 💧 *Optimize hydration by starting the day with water intake, maintaining hydration throughout, and rehydrating post-activity.*
56:19 💧 *Drinking water in the morning jumpstarts hydration without compromising sleep; the amount varies by individual body weight.*
57:42 💤 *Consuming too much water before bed can lead to disrupted sleep due to frequent urination; sip fluids gradually in the hours before sleep.*
01:00:31 💧 *Hydrate early in the day for performance benefits without compromising sleep; start sessions closer to hydration.*
01:00:58 🍉 *Food choices significantly impact hydration; fruits like watermelon are over 95% water and can aid hydration without being high in sugar.*
01:02:08 🥩 *Whole foods, like properly cooked meat, contribute to hydration, unlike highly processed foods which are dehydrated and salted.*
01:03:03 ⚖️ *Switching to whole foods can increase hydration significantly, reducing the need for excessive water intake but may require additional salt intake.*
01:06:03 🥤 *Intra-workout hydration should involve fluids with a similar osmolality to sweat; sodium intake during exercise is crucial for optimal performance.*
01:11:39 🍞 *Carbohydrate intake during exercise, especially for longer or high-intensity sessions, can spare glycogen stores and enhance performance.*
01:20:26 ⛽️ *Fueling needs before exercise depend on the exercise type; high-intensity, energy-demanding activities may necessitate pre-exercise fueling, while others may not require it.*
01:22:19 💪 *Recovery starts during the previous workout; optimizing nutrition, especially protein intake, aids in muscle growth and recovery.*
01:25:32 ☕ *Caffeine is an ergogenic aid that enhances endurance performance; dosage recommendations range from 1-3 milligrams per kilogram of body weight, taken 30 minutes before exercise.*
01:33:30 🧠 *Cholinergic supplements like Alpha GPC could aid in focus and alertness; limited human exercise performance data exist, mainly used prior to demanding training sessions.*
01:36:06 ⚠️ *Rhodiola rosea may manage cortisol levels but isn't a universal solution; quality sourcing of supplements is critical, as it can have variable effects on fatigue perception and endurance.*
01:41:09 🧪 *Single-ingredient formulations are recommended for changing supplements over time to understand individual sensitivities and responses. Avoid complex blends to isolate effects and avoid unknowingly discarding effective supplements due to blends' unknown impact.*
01:49:13 🎯 *Strive for a state where minimal or no supplementation is required by enhancing overall lifestyle factors. Supplementation should serve as a short-term solution while addressing underlying issues causing the need for supplementation.*
01:56:12 🔄 *Supplements need not be taken consistently; some can be used intermittently based on dietary variations and personal habits. Single-ingredient supplements allow flexibility in usage frequency, offering benefits even with occasional use.*
01:57:50 ☕ *Caffeine consumption should align with the body's natural wakefulness patterns, promoting its intake 90-120 minutes after waking to maximize its effects while minimizing sleep disruption later in the day.*
01:59:02 🔄 *Single-ingredient formulations permit flexible supplement usage, allowing them to be taken as needed-daily, weekly, multiple times, or none at all. Some supplements require consistent intake for maximum benefit, while others may be occasional without affecting efficacy.*
02:04:19 🛌 *Advanced sleep studies can significantly aid in understanding individual sleep patterns, focusing on biology, environment, psychology, and possible sleep pathologies.*
02:10:36 🛏️ *Optimize your sleep environment by checking factors like temperature, allergens, and negative ion concentration, which can significantly affect sleep quality.*
02:13:09 💡 *Maintain a specific association between your bed and sleeping or intimacy, reducing activities like watching TV or working to improve sleep quality.*
02:15:49 📵 *Avoid checking sleep trackers or phones immediately upon waking to prevent an anticipatory wake-up response, affecting sleep quality and wake-up time.*
02:17:08 💊 *Consider inositol supplementation for improved sleep quality, especially when consuming fewer carbohydrates or experiencing trouble falling back asleep.*
02:17:52 🌀 *Tools like the reverie app, offering short hypnosis sessions, and behavioral practices can aid in improving sleep patterns without solely relying on supplements.*
02:19:03 🔧 *Sometimes, if anxiety or a task keeps you awake, it might be beneficial to get up, address the concern, andreturn to bed, rather than lying awake with unrest.*
02:20:12 💪 *Exercise-induced adaptations are broader than commonly perceived, affecting various health-related aspects, showing how exercise is linked to unexpected health benefits.*
02:20:39 🏋️ *Exercise-induced increases in markers like blood pressure and inflammation trigger adaptations that eventually restore these markers below baseline, contributing to the body's recovery.*

Recap by Tammy AI
After the six episodes i really feel like a student again, who was going through a semester of new things. I learned things i never thought i would get into ... never thought of going that deep ... never thought i would be interested in. But furthermore I'm really motivated to take care of my body even more than before (and already started) ... the funny thing is, that i don't have any problems on doing my workouts anymore, because i know why i'm doing them, and what's going on in my body ... so i couldn't thank you enough Dr. Andrew & Dr. Andy 🤗 ❤
This has been the most informative series I have ever heard. Will have to re-listen and go over my notes. Thank you so much Andrew and Dr. Galpin!
When will the episode with Dr. Paul Saladino come? 🙏💪
Heart felt thanks to Dr Huberman and Dr Galpin for this series. I have listened every minute of it. I will have to listen to them again to increase my absorption. Keep educating.
Thank you for so much amazing content! I am getting back into shape after 2 kids in the last 2.5 yrs, and it's definitely more of a challenge to do so with limited time to workout and cook/meal prep. So having more information is helping me make the most of the time I do have! Thank you again! 😁
These series are great. Some of the most interesting content I have yet found on the internet regarding exercice/health/longevity. I love the respectful way you ask your questions and really give the opportunity to your guests to share their expertise.
I'm a listener from Belgium. I have been obligated to do a lot of long drives lately to take care of my dying father and your highly informative content helps me to focus on something else during those drives and it makes them go by rather quickly. I then transmit a lot of what I learned to my dad once I get over to him and it gives us something to talk about.
Sincerely: Thank you for all the great work you do.
Any way you can maybe make a summary of all this info? There’s just so much in these videos! Thanks for all your work
May seem little annoying but when they say something that applies to you just pause the video rewind and write it down
If you watch it on TV or your computer, you can pause it and then dictate it into your phone. If you turn on the subtitles, you can just read from there. Easy Peezy. Hope that helps. I think my phone is going to explode from the amount of notes I’ve taken from the Huberman Lab podcast.
Sobering conversations. I've listened to each of these more than once and I'm sharing this with everyone I know. Praying that you have Andy on regularly.
Doc, of course everything you offer in your podcasts applies to aged folks -- over 70 years old -- but is it possible to devote a few minutes each time to how the current subject matter applies specificially to the aged? Thanks for your consideration.
Here's a couple of friendly tips
30 grams of creatine every day, take in 5 gram doses, spaced out.
(This will prevent muscle loss)
Animal protein Beef or Eggs 1 gram of protein per pound of body weight (you want to be at)
(buy the highest quaility of animal protein you can afford)
Vitamin D3 (morning time) 10,000 iU
Vitamin A 10,000 iU (Palmitate) (Halibut Liver Oil)
Vitamin K2 (MK-7) take 2 or 200mcg (+)
Vitamin E 800iU
Fish Oil Omega-3 (1-2 Tablespoons)
Magnesium 300-500mg morning and night
((any ending in (ate) eg L-threonate))
(helps with sleep and muscles)
Walking is the safest exercise you can do.
Walking at a slow to medium speed will burn fat.
Running only burns carbs.
When working out, focus on not getting hurt and safe lifting.
Do reps of 5 per set and take breaks and do more sets.
Focus on volumn and not increasing your weights.
Volumn as in more sets of the 5 reps.
Get into a streamroom and or sauna if you can safely do so.
Focus on getting 7-9 hours of sleep.
Also do your best to eat at home, cook your own meals and avoid over eating (other than animal protein).
Good luck

Dr Galpin: You are a true scientist in a very challenging area of science. Please keep fighting the good fight.
Thank you Andrew for doing this series with Andy. And inspiring him to start his "Perform" podcast!
I always would sweat so easy, and I hated it so much and as I got older, I jokingly would say I had a high-performance cooling system. now finding out that it’s actually true. It’s so cool.😎 I used to remember at soccer practice being completely soaked, and then my teammates, having beads of sweat on therefore head and I’m sitting here wondering “what the hell”😂
I have absolutely loved all six episodes! I’m a knowledge junky! I plan to completely change how I train for performance and overall health & longevity! I look forward to seeing how I progress along my journey utilizing the tests. Thank you so much Andrew & Andy for this gift!!!!
It would be nice if the subtitles would add the conversion from imperial to metrics. Half the time i have no idea what they mean when they throw imperial numbers and i am betting a good chunk of the viewers feel the same.
I was hesitating whether I should write this message but here I go. I am one of those who made sure to stay hydrated throughout the day. One time I heard this should also happen before we go to bed. Well, yesterday I decided to stop drinking water at around two hours before sleeping and I only woke up once!!!!! I am amazed!!! Thank you Andy and prof. Huberman!❤
Hilarious that Huberman talks directly about supplement companies not labeling how much of each component is in the blend, and skimping on the more expensively listed items in the blend, then referring back to AG1, YET AG1 LITERALLY DOES THE EXACT SAME THING!!! They hide behind “proprietary blends” to skimp on expensive components that they put on the label.
I think we can all ignore the AG one claims from every single one of these educators. It's probably some Chinese money or some crap and it does do a lot to fund these guys that we enjoy listening to. But just by virtue of listening to a lot of these we can assume that AG one is a nothing product That is made for people who are just beginning to think about their health.
I am a dietitian and have started listening to your podcasts in the last few weeks. My 25-year-old son first told me about you. I really enjoy all of your information and love the "sciencey" conversations. I also appreciate Dr. Galpin's information. I do work out and eat pretty well but have still learned a lot from your podcasts. You both do a great job at addressing women and men but one category of people that I do not hear addressed is older people. I am 56 years old so I guess I would be interested to hear about nutrition, exercise, and supplements for those over 50 population. thank you so much for bringing this knowledge to the public!
