Ep. 41 - AI, Philanthropy, and the Power of Community in Business with True Classic Founder Ryan Bartlett

In this episode of One Day with Jon Bier, Jon sits with Ryan Bartlett to discuss how he found enormous success in the menswear industry after investing just $3000 to start his business. Jon and Ryan also explore the potential of AI in reshaping the business world, including the implications of AI lawyers. True to the spirit of innovation, Ryan dissects the potential disruption of on-demand apparel and the importance of the human touch in certain tasks. He explains how failing to foster community can lead to a company's downfall, speaking on the value of customer service, philanthropy in business, and the significance of location in creating opportunities for collaboration. Ryan Bartlett, founder of True Classic, went from a failed musician and poker player who slept in friends’ garages to founding a $260 million menswear company. Ryan, along with True Classic co-founders Nick Ventura and Matt Winnick, took a huge risk with a large upfront credit line to order the initial product. They sold $26,000 worth of clothing within the first month. From there, they scaled the company to the nine-figure brand that it is today. Powerful Quotes by Ryan Companies are taking a nosedive because they have lost touch with their audiences, what their audiences stand for, and what they want out of their product. We over-index on customer service. The customer is always right, even when they’re wrong. Key Highlights ·        Ryan shares how an initial investment of $3,000, a strategic partnership with a manufacturer, effective use of Facebook ads, and a strong creative strategy led to the business's rapid growth. It is important for startups to consider their market and identify areas where they can offer a better product or service. ·        Create immense value for the human beings that are your customers, and they will remain loyal to you forever. ·        Go above and beyond when it comes to customer service and make it a point to give back to the community. Fighting for a noble cause is also a huge contributor to a company’s success. ·        Ryan values the anonymity that comes with running a successful business. He believes that there is no upside to losing anonymity and becoming a celebrity, as it brings unnecessary scrutiny and pressure. ·        Incentivize collaboration and community, and leverage the power of networking by being intentional about the location in which you work.

Ep. 40 - Common Sense Healthcare: Using Ancient Remedies and Cutting Edge Innovations with Dr. Craig Koniver

In this episode of One Day with Jon Bier, Jon sits with Dr. Craig Koniver to discuss the ever-evolving landscape surrounding COVID-19, vaccines, and viruses. Dr. Koniver discusses the potential benefits of IV therapy, shedding light on the benefits of having a drip of curcumin, lactoferrin, and olive leaf extract. He also challenges the all-too-common practice of prescribing medication without exploring every viable option first. Dr. Koniver explores the fascinating world of peptides, ozone therapy, and VSELs in sports medicine, and the promising potential of wearables and telemedicine platforms for individualized health recommendations. Craig Koniver, MD, is a health and human performance expert in nutrient and science-driven protocols for performance and longevity. He has overseen more NAD+ and peptide therapies than any other physician in the world, and counts Fortune 100 CEOs, professional athletes, A-list Hollywood actors, and Special Forces servicemen among his many clients. Powerful Quotes by Dr. Koniver "I'm a clinician, not an academic, so I'm only interested in results. I don't want to have to wait 20 years for the academics to tell me it's okay to do something." "I was never for the mandates. I want everyone to be sovereign over their own choices." "The healthcare system works really well for acute injuries and some hardcore diseases, but it's not going to help you be your best self, perform your best, nor live your best life." Key Highlights As we have already seen with COVID-19 and its numerous variants, we have to take note that viruses, like the flu, change and morph every year, and so should the way we defend ourselves against these viruses. Lactoferrin can be used to naturally balance iron levels, while olive leaf extract has anti-inflammatory properties. Ozone therapy has potential for performance enhancement in professional sports. The benefits of small embryonic lineage cells can help reduce inflammation and rejuvenate organs. Peptides can likewise have potential benefits for athletes, but also potential side effects like fatigue, muscle loss, and thinning hair. We tend to overvalue how much we need to eat and undervalue how much we need to move.

Ep. 39 - From WresleMania to CrossFit with Joshy G

In this episode of One Day with Jon Bier, Jon sits with Joshy G to discuss everything from comic books and collectibles to functional fitness and pro wrestling. Jon and Joshy dive into the world of kayfabe and the challenges the internet age has imposed on maintaining the illusion that pro wrestling isn’t staged. They also discuss how some celebrities, like Brock Lesnar, have harnessed kayfabe to their advantage. Finally, they touch on the importance of community within CrossFit gyms, and what to expect as the social media generation slowly takes over as the face of fitness and wrestling. Josh Gallegos, aka Joshy G, served for years in the Los Angeles community as a Coach and General Manager to some of the most popular functional fitness gyms in LA. Ever versatile, he also acts as emcee for many competitions both locally and nationally and is a head emcee’s for the Reebok CrossFit Games, televised on ESPN. Josh is a CrossFit Endurance Coach, as well as a CrossFit Level One and CrossFit Level Two Trainer. In his spare time, Josh co-writes programming for several professional wrestlers including, WWE Superstars, Seth Rollins, Becky Lynch, Bayley, and Cesaro. Powerful Quotes by Joshy "If CrossFit wants to get back to the way it was so popular in its heyday, community has to come first." "You want to be able to understand the process if you want to be able to sell the product." Key Highlights Joshy discusses how CrossFit programming is a great way to get in a good workout without spending hours in the gym. He explains how great CrossFit workouts can range anywhere from 10-12 minutes, and breaks down the bodybuilding and Olympic lifting components typically incorporated into workouts. We explore the importance of creating a strong community within a CrossFit gym and how a leaderboard can be used to motivate or intimidate gym members. We examine the success of gyms like CrossFit South Brooklyn and CrossFit Soul in creating an environment that feels like a family. We also discuss how gyms can use events and merch to make it more than just a place to work out and how coaches can create an experience that is like an adult recess. Finally, we consider how CrossFit can use its infrastructure to cultivate community and make the open a bigger deal. The ultimate luxury in life is being comfortable in your own body. A gym or private trainer can do more than facilitate your health and fitness. They can, by extension, teach you life lessons and help you see improvement beyond your fitness.

Ep. 38 - Unlocking the Secrets to Longevity: Exploring Precision Medicine with Dr. Florence Comite

In this episode of One day with Jon Bier, Jon talks with Dr. Florence Comite to discover the incredible potential of precision medicine in transforming our health and extending our life expectancy, all while maintaining top-notch quality of life. Listen in as Dr. Comite does a deep dive into the world of epigenetics, exploring how our genes and lifestyle choices can impact our overall health and well-being. She shares her team's groundbreaking work at the Center for Precision Medicine and Health, including predicting the death of James Gandolfini. Dr. Comite also discusses the exciting advancements in virtual medicine and personalized healthcare, touching on the importance of hormone balancing and its effects on our mood, heart health, and more. Dr. Comite is a physician-scientist and innovator in the field of precision medicine, internationally known for her expertise in leveraging N-of-1 data to detect, predict, and reverse disorders of aging for optimal health and vitality. In 2005, Dr. Comite founded the Center for Precision Medicine & Health in New York City, where she established a clinically proven, academic approach to personalized precision health care, structured as a clinical trial. Powerful Quotes by Dr. Comite "When we turn your health around at the cellular level—metabolically, hormonally, neurologically—we can keep you feeling great and living longer." "Your genes don’t have to be your destiny." Key Highlights Epigenetics is the study of how our genes and lifestyle are intertwined and the potential for increasing our life expectancy. We discuss how technology and innovation are making it increasingly possible to reach the potential of living to 150 years old. The market for health and wellness is booming and people are increasingly investing in their own health. But there are potential consequences when taking preventative health measures without professional advice. Understanding your individual needs is paramount. Virtual medicine can tell the story of how your body is functioning metabolically, and Covid has accelerated its popularity. Continuous glucose monitors and tests may be used to gain deeper insights into our health. Feelings of depression, moodiness, and even heart flutters can be connected to hormone levels. We discuss the complexity of balancing hormones for each individual, as well as how testosterone can be beneficial for both men and women, and how both age and lifestyle factors can contribute to hormone imbalances.

Ep. 37 - Maintaining a Thriving Gut Microbiome with Colleen Cutcliffe

In this episode of One day with Jon Bier, Jon talks with Colleen Cutcliffe to break down the complexities of microbiome science. Listen in as Colleen highlights the importance of replenishing and maintaining a thriving gut microbiome in a modern society that overlooks its role as a cornerstone of health and wellness. She discusses the importance of the bacterium Akkermansia and why its regulation is key to gut health. Finally, Colleen discusses signs to look for which indicate a recovering microbiome, and how to ensure that recovery following chemo or taking an antibiotic. Colleen Cutcliffe is the Chief Executive Officer and co-founder of Pendulum. Colleen has more than 25 years of experience leading and managing biology teams in academia, pharmaceuticals, and biotechnology. Prior to co-founding Pendulum, Colleen was the senior manager of biology at Pacific Biosciences and a scientist at Elan Pharmaceuticals. Powerful Quotes by Colleen There are so many diseases that are associated with the depletion of Akkermansia that it’s emerging as this keystone strain that you simply have to have. After you take an antibiotic, your microbiome is in its most vulnerable state. You have a blank slate, and what you decide to feed it now can make or break the playing field. Key Highlights A healthy microbiome “covers” us in bacteria, viruses, and fungi in order to be protected from allergens that are always present in our environment. Because of our modern focus on scrubbing ourselves clean of these bacteria, those allergens have the opportunity to directly interact with our immune system. This is why we’re experiencing an increase in allergies, asthma, immune and autoimmune responses. Multiple studies, including one by Mayo Clinic, reveal that children who are consistently on antibiotics are systematically more prone to obesity, diabetes, celiac disease, allergies, ADHD, etc. This is all due to their microbiome being unable to recover from the prolonged administration of antibiotics. The microbiomes of the healthiest people are composed of 3-5% Akkermansia, which is a huge number for a single strain.

Ep. 36 - Building a Global Community of Athletes with Akin Akman

In this episode of One day with Jon Bier, Jon talks with Akin Akman to discover what it takes to build a borderless community of athletes. Listen in as Akin shares the mindset that drove him to become a professional athlete beginning at the age of seven and continues to influence his approach to coaching today. He explains how AARMY was able to successfully combine virtual and in-person training to create a true global fitness community. Akin Akman, AARMY's Co-Founder and Chief Fitness Officer, is widely considered the world's #1 Cycle Coach and one of the most successful Group Fitness Coaches globally. Powerful Quotes by Akin When you’re around the best in the world, it rubs off. For me, there is no failure if I create one athlete. If I can build one person up, I’m good. Key Highlights Focusing on smaller, more digestible goals helps you build a specific strategy that not only allows you to be number one, but also to be mentally strong enough to appreciate what it takes to be number one. A strong community is one where someone can walk in and feel at ease and on equal terms with everyone else. This is even truer in the sports and fitness world where competition and comparison between athletes happen by default. Technology has made it possible for anyone to train anytime, anywhere. However, especially when starting out, there is nothing that matches the energy of an in-person session. The best tactic is to use virtual training to supplement face-to-face training, as extra time to practice your baseline skills that are best learned and honed in person.

Ep. 35 - Optimizing Your Body for Health and Longevity with Noosheen Hashemi

In this episode of One day with Jon Bier, Jon talks with Noosheen Hashemi who explains how the January AI app provides personalized and precise action steps to help its users take charge of their own health. Listen in as Noosheen shares how the necessity of eating a diverse, seasonal diet kept our ancestors healthy and resilient, her thoughts on food as medicine, the beauty of fasting, and a critical caveat when using GLP-1 for weight loss. Noosheen Hashemi is a tech veteran, entrepreneur, investor, and philanthropist. She is the founder and CEO of January AI, a seed-stage precision health tech company that harnesses the power of artificial intelligence to prevent, predict, postpone, and manage chronic disease. January AI is Noosheen’s answer to a healthcare industry that seemed to only address decline and disease, rather than prevention and progress. Powerful Quotes by Noosheen "Food is the medicine that you take three-to-six times a day." "A good number of people who have diabetes don’t have a 'why.' They weren’t waking up for something." Key Highlights The best diet is one that supports good gut health, which influences everything from inflammation, mood, energy, mental acuity, longevity, all the way to chronic conditions. A 70%-80% plant-based, high-fiber diet with minimal red meat, sugar, and processed foods is foundational. The January AI app paves the way for intentional, mindful eating by informing users how certain foods or food timing may personally impact them without having to “test” a new food, diet, or nutrition plan on themselves. Using GLP-1 for weight loss has its benefits, but as with any drug, there is no replacement for lifestyle. When we lose weight at a rapid pace, the lactobacillus in our gut increases, which often results in our regaining that weight just as quickly. Using such aids in conjunction with a healthy lifestyle is the best long-term strategy for weight loss.

Ep. 34 - Helping Humans Live Better and Longer with Dr. Gil Blander

In this episode of One day with Jon Bier, Jon talks with Dr. Gil Blander who explains how InsideTracker has been the one of the leading players in the healthcare revolution, in which we’re seeing a dramatic shift from reactive and generic healthcare to personalized and proactive healthcare. Listen in as Dr. Blander shares how his fascination with the aging process led him down the path to helping humans live longer and with greater overall health by optimizing what’s happening inside the body. Dr. Gil Blander is internationally recognized for his research in the basic biology of aging and translating research discoveries into new ways of detecting and preventing age-related conditions. He received a Ph.D. in biology from the Weizmann Institute of Science and completed his Post Doctoral fellowship at MIT, before going on to found InsideTracker, a truly personalized nutrition and performance system, in 2009. Powerful Quotes by Dr. Blander Let’s help humans live better, longer, based on what’s happening inside the body. There is a real revolution of personalized nutrition and personalized longevity. Everyone now understands that you can live better, longer if you can take care of your body as well as you take care of your car. Key Highlights Blood is the backbone of InsideTracker, but it also measures factors such as neurogenomics (DNA) which say a lot about the challenges you might face in the future, such as the risk of high glucose. The device’s activity trackers which measure resting heart rate, sleep quality, stress levels, and Vo2 max. Collecting all of this data allows InsideTracker to make recommendations for improved health and wellness overall. Lifting heavy weights regularly (ex. deadlifts and squats) prevents degradation and promotes longevity. This is because, as we get older, we lose muscle mass, and we need to work harder to maintain it. Personalized health solutions work best when all the three legs of the stool are met: 1) solid behavioral science, 2) solid technology, 3) solid design.

Ep. 33 - Rebranding the Cannabis Industry with Joseph Sheehey

In this episode of One day with Jon Bier, Jon talks with Joseph Sheehey about shifting the narrative around the cannabis industry and becoming a pioneer in the future of supplements. The right type of CBD can be a life-changer for the right person. Listen in as Joseph reflects on his journey from being a NASA engineer to the founder of a CBD brand, and how he was able to rebuild his sense of identity and self-esteem largely with the help of psilocybin. He talks about growing a CBD brand in America and overseas while navigating the many legal limitations that the cannabis space continues to face. Overall, the mission of CURED Nutrition is to pave the way for the future of medicine by creating supplements that optimize life holistically, with the ultimate goal of fostering widespread acceptance of the CBD industry. Joseph Sheehey is a former NASA-contributing aerospace engineer, nationally distinguished physique competitor, and forward-thinking entrepreneur. Joseph holds extensive experience in human optimization through the design of nutrition, training, and introspective practices. An awakening to a lifelong struggle with depression set a fire ablaze to change this world through what is now CURED Nutrition. Powerful Quotes by Joseph “Our mission is to create what I believe to be the future of supplements.” “If you cut corners, even if you’re building a beautiful brand, you’re not serving anybody. That’s not a business model that’s ever going to work. If you can lead with the desire to actually serve and take responsibility for whatever it is you’re doing in the marketplace, there is no reason you should ever lose.” Key Highlights Joseph opens up about the moment he decided against committing suicide, and how he was able to release pent-up shame and reclaim his identity with what he calls his “psilocybin journey”. The overall mission of CURED Nation is to rebrand the cannabis industry by collaborating with health and fitness influencers. He believes that having these professionals representing the company will begin to change the narrative around cannabis. The future of medicine is one that is proactive and personalized. Soon, no longer will one-size-fits all programs be the norm, and everybody will be following a plan that has been tailored for their specific needs and goals.

Ep. 32 - The Testosterone Crisis with Saad Alam

In this episode of One day with Jon Bier, Jon talks with Saad Alam about the dangerous effects of hormonal imbalances and low testosterone in men, its epigenetic implications, and how to address this relatively modern phenomenon. Saad does a deep dive into the testosterone crisis that inspired him to establish his company, Hone Health, explaining why testosterone is better than any drug at boosting holistic wellness and performance. Saad makes the case that supplementing with testosterone is not only a nice-to-have for today’s average man, but a foundational decision that affects every part of that man’s life—for a lifetime. Saad Alam is the Founder & CEO at Hone, an online clinic that treats men’s hormonal imbalances and low testosterone by offering at-home blood tests, 30 minute telehealth consults, and medications delivered directly to their door. Powerful Quotes by Saad If we’re talking about discretionary income, this is not discretionary. You need testosterone to literally live your life. As you age, you start to deposit that self-doubt of, “That’s just who I was when I was younger. I’ll never be like that.” That starts a negative fucking feedback cycle in your mind, and it just becomes who you are as you get older. If you nip that in the bud as quickly as possible and teach yourself to have a different thought pattern, you can accomplish so much more in your life. Key Highlights Testosterone stands above all other drugs primarily due to the fact that all others are episodic; whereas testosterone changes your entire being and does so for a lifetime, unstopped. If you have low testosterone and you supplement with testosterone as you get older, you will have fewer cardiovascular problems, lower your chances of developing diabetes and comorbidities, minimize depression and brittle bones, and live longer. Particularly when it comes to fitness, testosterone may help you win the mental battle, which always follows the physical battle (i.e. lifting heavy). Across the board, men’s testosterone is decreasing like never before. Men from three decades ago had an average of 26% more testosterone and 50% more sperm than today’s men.

Ep. 31 - How to Transform Your Life with Real Food and Simple Habits with Mary Shenouda

In this episode of One day with Jon Bier, Jon talks with Mary Shenouda about her approach to crafting personalized, proactive healthcare for world-class performers. The first couple decades of Mary’s wellness journey is defined by nonstop pain and sickness, and doctors telling her that what she was going through was all in her head. After finally discovering that she was a Celiac, Mary decided to completely overhaul her diet and lifestyle while cutting out all of her prescription drugs. Within months, her symptoms reversed, and a lifetime of pain and sickness began to disappear. At that point, Mary decided to go all in on her journey as a private chef advocating the power that real food has when it comes to health and vitality. Mary Shenouda, aka The Paleo Chef, is a performance chef and consultant whose clients include elite professional athletes and top performers and entertainers. She is the creator of Phat Fudge—a tahini-based paleo, high fat, organic, focused ketogenic performance fudge, and the new health conscious solution to sugary performance food and drinks. Powerful Quotes by Mary We’re all carriers of some gene expression which could lead to something terrifying; but, it doesn’t mean that the gene ever has to express itself. Your lifestyle is going to determine that. Most people will benefit from doing really simple things: opening the window when they wake up, hydrating with some water, delaying their coffee, walking 30 minutes a day, getting some strength training in, and sleeping. It’s all free. Do all of that for six-to-eight weeks first, and then you can start to explore other things. Key Highlights Success is the sum total of a lot of different variables, and no two people will get the same mix of each variable, which include timing, luck, opportunity, and follow-through. When it comes to the lifelong journey of health and wellness, there is no one-size-fits-all and the answer to most questions is “it depends”—on your goals, unique needs, and lifestyle preferences. The wellness industry has recently evolved from generic and reactive to personalized and proactive. We’re in the midst of a revolution in which technology meets collaboration, giving each of us the tools to understand and keep up with what’s best for us at a given moment. For some people, meat is better served as a supplement to a meal rather than the main dish. Mary discovered that black cumin seed can aid in reducing the viral load of COVID-19. No professional athlete is doing keto, carnivore, or vegan. There is a big difference between eating according to lifestyle and eating to maximize performance.

Ep. 30 - Bringing High Performance to the Masses with Jeff Byers

In this episode of One day with Jon Bier, Jon talks with Jeff Byers about his professional football career and his transition into the health and wellness space.   As the owner of the highly-acclaimed company Momentous, Jeff does a deep dive into human optimization and performance, with a focus on cutting through the often confusing maze that is the supplement industry.   Jeff Byers is a former NFL lineman and the Founder and CEO of Momentous, a holistic wellness and nutrition company offering innovative products for world-class performance and health solutions for high performance seekers at all levels, from professional athletes to the members of the U.S. military.   Powerful Quotes by Jeff “Supplements”, to me, is a dirty word. We founded a company in which supplementation is our primary form of business; but, really, I view Momentous as a “leading high performance lifestyle company”: We’re giving people knowledge, tools, access to experts, and the best products in the world to make your life better.   How do we democratize high performance? How do we bring high performance to the masses? That doesn’t happen with just products. It happens with knowledge, content, guidance, and products.   Key Highlights The supplement industry has always been sketchy. But knowing what to take is just one side of the coin. The other important factor is knowing when to take certain products. Real experts don’t just tell you which supplement/s to take. They also give protocols: recommendations based on your goals. Cognitive longevity isn’t something that only football athletes need to worry about. Preventing dementia, Alzheimer’s, and other states brought on by mental decline all come down to supplementing for and adhering to a lifestyle that promotes cognitive longevity. Jeff focuses on maximizing connective tissue health, cognitive longevity, and sleep. His supplementation and lifestyle choices largely revolve around these three pillars for his long-term health and fitness. You don’t need a lot of supplements to thrive or even just to “give you an edge”. You just need the five or ten best products for your specific circumstances and goals. Everything else is mostly a waste of money.   Learn More About Momentous Instagram: @live.momentous Twitter: @LiveMomentous Visit their website   Connect with Jon Bier Instagram: @jonbier13 Twitter: @jonbier13 Facebook: @jonbier13

Ep. 29 - Overcoming Addiction, Making Healthy Habits Enjoyable, and Optimizing Your Body With Andrew Herr

In this episode of One day with Jon Bier, Jon talks with Andrew Herr about overcoming addiction, making healthy habits enjoyable (and therefore sustainable), and optimizing your body for the long haul. In this multifaceted discussion, Andrew covers not only the practical side of taking control of your health and wellness but also the internal work that lays the foundation for lasting change. Andrew Herr has led human performance and biotech strategy efforts for the Pentagon, special operations personnel, and professional sports teams. He is the Founder & CEO of Fount, which offers the most comprehensive and customized health and performance programs in the world. Born out of research on how to enhance performance for the US military, Fount’s mission is to build programs that enable anybody to reach their goals in the office, on the court, at home, or wherever their ambitions take them. Powerful Quotes by Andrew There is no one-size-fits-all. Everybody’s immune system is so different. Let’s figure out the pathways and the tools that are helping, then double down. If something’s not helping, great. We’re just looking for the right tools for you. Food addiction is a real challenge for people; but, it’s a challenge that they can overcome. Like any addiction, there are ways to overcome it and there’s a reason it’s harder for some people than it is for others. But, watching people overcoming emotional eating is a really cool thing to see. The best part of it is that they end up just as happy eating less—or, often, happier. Key Highlights Andrew shines a spotlight on the foundational yet often overlooked aspect of recovery: sleep. “We’re really big on optimizing sleep. It’s the most powerful recovery tool in the entire toolkit,” he says. Most people don’t care about “health”, per se. They only care about four things: Performing well at your job or your mission; friends and family; sports and hobbies; how you look and feel.
