re. water, I have an RO filter for drinking purposes but want to have it independently tested. Does it perform as promised, and, how much nanoplastic am I getting per serving? Might be a business idea in there...
Hi Chris. Can you talk about your filtered water and how you consume water? I forget if you mentioned it before, I did buy that huge water bottle you mentioned. two of them in fact!
So much of exercise is mental. You nail it here, you need to commit to the lift.
First time you accidently put on more weight than you planned to and crush it, you realize how much more capable your body is than your mind will allow.
Hi Chris, can you say what your "top 5" supplements would be? I don't take anything other than a multi-vitamin today. For reference, I'm 58, train cardio/weights every day (alternating), and am looking to build a little muscle, maintain energy levels, and stay pain/injury free.
Hey Chris, a few thoughts on squats that help me. 1) I've practiced dumping heavy weight so I've got that knowledge in the back of my head that I know how to get out if I have to. Maybe not exactly in line with what you're talking about with commitment but it helps me go for it. 2) I know I intend and need to use stretch/reflex at the bottom so I go into it aggressive knowing I need that to get out.
On the bloodtests, that's a very comprehensive list, nothing to add.
What I would emphasize is that for many of those metrics, the "normal" range that will be provided by your lab/GP can be far from optimal, and some homework is needed to ascertain whether your results are actually optimal
What I would personally focus on in Chris's list (not in order of importance):
-Free T
-TSH
-Uric Acid
-Trig/HDL ratio and/or ApoB/ApoA ratio
-Cortisol (ideally measured a different times during the day)
-Ferritin
-ALT
For every one of those metrics, what is optimal will be very different from what your GP will consider "normal"
Thanks for the bloodtest answer Chris. Great stuff.

Most informative.... great info on complete blood panel..
