Our bodies were never designed to live past age 30. Our muscle mass starts decreasing after the age of 30. Our hormone levels, our muscles begin to atrophy.
There's a direct correlation between the amount of skeletal muscle you have and your longevity. Fundamentally, it comes back down to diet, sleep, exercise, and mindset. And the way that you do those things is to wrap routine around them.
Most people are healthy till 63. And our goal here is, can we at least move your health span up to that 80-year mark? This is the decade of a healthspan revolution, and the biggest impact is going to be coming from AI.
And no human can understand all that, but AI can take it all in, process it, and help you. And ultimately, it's about being in the best health I can in order to intercept these breakthroughs.
Yeah, one of the best pro-longevity things I've ever done is having...
It's amazing to be here with you in beautiful Miami and in your incredible environment here. You walk the talk, you live it, and so proud of what you built.
I think about that a lot. And I'm clear that fundamentally there are a whole slew of things that cost you nothing that have a huge impact right now. A lot of people know me as a technologist or investor in biotech or AI and building companies in that field. But what I really want to gift in this conversation with you is like what you can do right now that moves the needle for you.
And it's not spending hundreds of thousands or millions of dollars. You can do that as well, but fundamentally it comes back down to diet, sleep, exercise, and mindset. Yes. Those are the elements that if you don't have those dialed in, you know, forget about the other stuff. Right. Let's dial those in and, you know,
we're here discussing my latest book, longevity guidebook, how to go, you know, how to slow stop reverse aging and not die from something stupid.
It's important because I think that should have been the title of the book is such a great. Thank you. It really is. Thank you. But you know, it's, So there's a chapter on diet, a chapter on sleep, a chapter on exercise, a chapter on mindset, and importantly, this time, a chapter on routines. Because I think the single greatest innovation I've done, I'm 63 right now.
I feel like I'm in the best health I've ever been in my life. You look amazing, by the way.
I added 10 pounds of muscle last year. Really? I went down, you know, muscle is your longevity organ. And I went full on. Did you do full statin gene therapy? No, no, no. It was working out in the gym with weights every day, five days a week. It was creatine. It was 150 grams because I weigh 150 pounds of protein every day. And it was doing the work. Yeah. It was doing the work.
Now, doesn't mean, and we can talk about this, some amazing biotechnology coming in the future that will make it a lot easier to My job now is to maintain that. But lots of studies around the world show that there's a direct correlation between the amount of muscle mass, skeletal muscle you have, and your longevity.
So again, the chapter on diet, a chapter on sleep, a chapter on muscle, a chapter on mindset, those are things that
we should be doing now and the way that you do those things is to wrap routine around them yes you know what is routine it's not negotiating with yourself over and over again right right it's like waking up in the morning and like this is who i am sort of the discipline over motivation It is discipline or that's a good point, a good way to put it.
And it's like, it's creating that person who you want to be and who you are. So it's like, I am the person who gets up at this time and does these things. And when you identify with that, it helps you not negotiate and say, well, you know, I want to stay in the cuddly bed a little bit longer or, you know, that dessert, I can rationalize eating that dessert right now.
Yeah. I agree with you a hundred percent. So I have the same philosophy. I'm up typically at 5.30 in the morning. And that starts by being in bed by 9.30 the night before. So I'm at my abundance summit. I've got 600 CEOs, people from around the world. They're partying hardy and they watch me. They say, Peter, come on. Sorry, it's bedtime.
So I'm out of my own events at 9.30, at nine to be in bed by 9.30. And then when I get up at 5.30, that first, really, it's the first 90 minutes. It is my golden time. And I love writing during that time. So I'm writing every day. I've got three books in production. This is the first of the three. I'm very excited about this. Thank you. And I put out two blogs a week, but I'm in the gym.
doing red light therapy, meditating. And it's that period of time that, like you said, it's selfish, it's mine. And it allows me to perform at a much higher level. Now, to be clear, I wasn't always that way, right? And it doesn't mean you go from zero to infinity. I got there over time. I wasn't that way a decade ago. I got into longevity.
I'd started human longevity with Craig Venter and Bob Hury back in 2012. That makes you a great grandfather.
