In general, not just his hiring process, which is quite novel, was based on that. The intersection of your EQ to IQ was what he looked at. And so that's like your workable ability. If you have excess IQ, you're going to be limited, kind of what I said about the protein, by your lack of EQ.
And if you have the other, that seesaw concept, you're just not going to be able to optimize because that intersection is your true ability. All right, guys. Andy Triana here. We're going to talk optimization. Let's do it, baby. Looking forward to it, man. Yeah. What you been working on lately?
I have a patent pending in the food science world that has to do with protein and optimizing it. And I'm doing a lot of like just quote unquote nerd stuff right now, scientific advising. But as always, sports performance and looking at the vision, information processing portion and sensory motor aspect of the brain has always been my hot topic in sports.
Yeah, let's dive with the patent first. So what are you trying? You probably can't spill the beans on it.
No, no, I can spill the beans because we have some stuff going on. The patentable portion is an algorithmic equation I created with some software in which I could take your standard amino acid breakdown of a gram of protein. In the US, it's typically 18 amino acids. You plug in your information and it spits out an optimized form.
Because essentially, especially in the early 2000s, when bodybuilding was kind of really taking a lot of hold on the nutrition world and supplement world, it was all about leucine, driving more anabolism through mTOR and these very specific things. And- Biology is overarchingly a balancing act. When people ask me about health, I tell them the answer is synergy, not anything in particular.
And we disrupted the balancing act of protein. And of course, these ripples into modern day proteins and the foods we consume today are unbalanced to a degree that we're unlikely to be in protein synthesis as long as we think we are due to some limiting factors. And my algorithm hopefully corrects for that. Nice. That sounds intense, man.
Yeah, it's a wordy, but in reality, just think about a seesaw. The optimal biological outcome is a balanced seesaw. And anytime you unbalance that seesaw, there's pros and cons that come into play. And the amount of time you spend unbalanced is really the deleterious issue. So I take that philosophy and I kind of applied it to food, sports, and I've applied it to a few things.
Nice. So sports performance, were you an athlete growing up?
