Adventurebroke me.Recovery rebuilt me.
…two broken hips later.
I went full-throttle for twenty years — then my body sent the invoice. Now I run the experiments, read the studies, and report what actually holds up — sleep, recovery, and relearning what counts as healthy.
The short version
From sending it to studying it.
01

03
The rebuild
Forced to slow down, I went deep on sleep, recovery, metabolic health, and what the research actually supports. This site is that work.
