Description
Optimize your nutrition, optimize your fitness, optimize your sleep. Optimizing is the new hacking, but somehow more sophisticated. But lost in the world of high-tech solutions for squeezing the most out of your time and your life is the very human need to actually live. When you're busy counting macros, it's easy to forget that meals are meant to be enjoyed, and when you're hooked up to a heart monitor and a Strava account, you're definitely not doing the same kind of running our ancestors did. In this episode of the Outlier Health Podcast, Matt and Matt explore optimization culture and ask the questions: Is all this optimization worth the enjoyment it costs us? And does it really help with health at all?
