Discipline, Adaptation & Performance Breathing - Brian Mackenzie #91

Brian Mackenzie is a human performance and movement specialist, and the innovator of the endurance, strength and conditioning paradigm. Originally, I brought Brian on the show to talk with him about performance breathing (which we do discuss!), but our conversation ends up traversing some fascinating terrain on the topics of harmonizing with the natural world, conditioning your body for adaptation through hormesis, how practicing discipline can actually give you more freedom and why specialization is less than optimal. EPISODE BREAKDOWN: • Harmonizing with the natural world • Merging nature with technology in human performance • Hormesis — turning down comfort, turning up adaptation • Top recovery recommendations • Brian’s morning hydration protocol • Discipline is everything • Developing a breathing practice • Specializing vs generalizing | Applying the fundamentals • A breathing practice you can do right now • Drowning euphoria • Brian’s prognosis for the future of the human species
