And so if the next day after deep sleep, you're trying to decide, do you eat the brownie or not? Do you work out or not? Do you have a drink or not? The chances of you caving in that moment are significantly higher if you've not had deep sleep. And then it has this cascade effect.

So if you don't sleep, then you're also going to do this bad thing, which also leads to poor sleep, which also leads to doing more bad things. So it has this domino effect where it really cements bad habits and it becomes harder for you to come out from underneath it of actually making meaningful change.

So it has this domino effect where it really cements bad habits and it becomes harder for you to come out from underneath it of actually making meaningful change.

Exactly. It just devastates your willpower. And like all these other cascading things. And so that's why like, I think in even like five or 10 years, I think that health is gonna, it will become the zeitgeist. And I think we'll look back and we'll be like, what? Like we used to just sleep the part of ourselves and like we had no idea what it was doing for these follow-on effects.

Like I want to actually, what I'd like to do is tie sleep to IQ. You don't mess with someone's IQ, right? Like if you can show that IQ drops post a bad night's sleep, it basically decimates these ideas of like genius person does blank without sleep. So the ultimate argument is data. So it's a study I want to do is take these patterns, measure IQ throughout the day.

And if you can show that drop, like there's very few things that will be more effective than showing that you basically become dumb when you don't sleep.

Exactly. I did this as well with, so when this endeavor went viral, people were confused. And so I got a lot of name calling. So people would be like, you're an eccentric billionaire, rich, Patrick Bateman, Prometheus, you know, like all the possible things they could call me. And so they were just confused. And so I'd say like, okay, LeBron James spends $1.5 million a year on his health, right?

And so I'd say like, okay, LeBron James spends $1.5 million a year on his health, right?

And you see him play in the court. You're like, good job, LeBron. Like you're doing a good job. But someone like myself, if you've worked really hard at health and wellness, I'm weird and an outcast and should be an eccentric. And so I had to clarify for people that actually I'm a new category, and I came up with this idea that I'm a professional rejuvenation athlete.

And so I had to clarify for people that actually I'm a new category, and I came up with this idea that I'm a professional rejuvenation athlete.

It's a new sport, it's a new game, and they created a leaderboard. So looked at speed of aging. So there's a clock inside of our body that tells you how fast or how slow you're aging. And then I said, all right, world, let's compete. Because right now you have like all these health gurus who are saying like, do this, do that. But how do you know what thing works?

And so I was like, all right, just show us your data. So now we have a leaderboard. And so same thing, just like a professional sleeper, there's now a professional rejuvenation athlete and we have a leaderboard, people compete. So it's like, it helps humans understand like what the game is and how to win and how to score points.

Yeah. What's your protein intake?

Yeah. What's your protein intake?

Yeah. Yeah. And so I say that's low protein. So it sounds like for where you're at, that's about where you're at. But most men I know are typically in like the 200, 250 range. They have an idea that just there's no upper bound of too much protein. And so they just pound it. And so, yeah, I guess my 120 is generally speaking on the lower side of how most men think about protein consumption.
