In this Prime Pursuit episode, we challenge both the marketing hype and the alarmist narratives, unpack the retatrutide controversy, and ask what informed medical freedom should look like. For deeper molecule-by-molecule analysis, listen to Peptides Explained.

What does it actually mean to train for your prime years?

In this episode of Prime Pursuit, John breaks down the training and recovery philosophy he is using to stay strong, mobile, conditioned, resilient, and useful for decades to come. The current framework includes Brazilian jiu jitsu three to four times per week, a dedicated strength day, a Murph-inspired strength-endurance session, and Zone 2 cardio used strategically to build aerobic capacity without turning every workout into another high-fatigue event.

But this episode goes beyond sets, reps, and heart-rate zones. Recovery also means sleep, nutrition, mobility, stress management, prayer, Scripture, reflection, and learning when discipline means pushing—and when it means backing off.

The goal isn't specialized fitness. It's capability.

Better health. Deeper purpose.

Everyone keeps calling belly fat "visceral fat." That is not how anatomy works. In this crossover episode, John breaks down the difference between visceral and subcutaneous fat, why visceral adipose tissue matters metabolically, how it is actually measured, what waist circumference can and cannot tell you, and what the evidence says about GLP-1 therapies and tesamorelin.
