Rhonda Patrick, Ph.D.

I'm excited.

I do planks often, mostly at the end of my workout with my coach.

And so I'm going to start practicing the breath work.

It's funny because you mentioned Gabby and Laird, who I've, are mutual friends.

And I've, over the years, something has come up every time, but I was supposed to go train with them and do their, their XPT?

Yeah, yeah.

And I know it's going to happen one day.

I'm going to be more prepared for it.

Oh, yeah, yeah.

Less embarrassed.

Oh, yeah.

When my coach has – it's like if I design the workouts that we do at the end of our session, it's hard.

After you're doing the rowing and then you have to go right into the squat or the cleaning and then doing a front squat.

You have this great quote, train for life, don't live to train, which, I mean, you kind of touched on it a little bit and we're talking about both ends of the spectrum here.

I mean, obviously there are athletes that are training for something, but there's a lot of people listening to this podcast that are not athletes.

They're just interested in being healthy.

Yeah.

Okay, what is the right word?

Yeah, I think there's a lot of people that perhaps don't even play sports.

And I mean, adults here, I'm mostly talking about adults, that are thinking about these statistics in their head, like, oh, I'm 50 years old, I'm 60 years old, my muscle mass is declining, my strength is declining, you know, my cardiorespiratory fitness is declining.
