This clip is from episode 239 ‒ The science of strength, muscle, and training for longevity with Andy Galpin, Ph.D. Andy Galpin is a professor of Kinesiology at California State University at Fullerton, where he studies muscle adaptation and applies his research to work with professional athletes.
In this clip, they discuss:
- When a person wants to have bigger muscles, what is happening at the cellular level with their muscle fibers?
- Do different types of training increase sarcoplasmic versus contractile hypertrophy?
- Why is it that a bodybuilder can have more muscle, yet they’re not stronger than a strong man or a weightlifter?
- And more

Olav Aleksander Bu is an internationally renowned sports scientist acclaimed for his coaching prowess with elite athletes spanning a diverse range of sports disciplines. In this episode, Olav delves deep into the intricacies of VO2 max and its profound impact on performance. They explore the relationship between VO2 max and ATP production, energy efficiency, and power, as well as the impact of low-intensity training on VO2 max. The conversation extends to Olav’s experiences pushing the boundaries with high-performance athletes and the data driven interventions he uses to improve performance. They also dissect the role of lactate threshold, discuss other important metrics to track, and explore the exciting possibility of utilizing a portable VO2 testing device as a practical alternative to traditional lab-based assessments.
We discuss:
0:00:00 - Intro
0:01:29 - Olav’s background, expertise in exercise physiology, coaching experience, and interest in the extremes of human capability
0:08:03 - The processes of energy conversion within the human body and its implications for performance
0:19:50 - Improving movement efficiency, and the importance of mindfulness in training to optimize performance
0:36:34 - The relationship between VO2 max, power output, and endurance performance in different sporting contexts
0:47:36 - How VO2 max is measured in the lab, and why it’s a crucial predictor of both lifespan and quality of life
0:58:15 - Absolute vs relative VO2 max, the significance of functional threshold power in cycling, and the importance of longer duration tests for accurate assessments
1:10:35 - Portable VO2 testing devices as a practical alternative to lab-based tests
1:22:19 - The complexities of measuring ventilation and its impact on performance metrics like VO2 max and heart rate
1:30:54 - Training interventions to increase VO2 max, and factors that impact performance outcomes
1:41:15 - The respiratory exchange ratio (RER) and endurance sports, and how factors such as diet composition and exercise intensity influence RER values and performance
1:50:30 - Science-guided training for versatile athletes: maximizing VO2 max, power, torque, and cadence in cycling, and the importance of incorporating diverse stimuli to enhance performance
2:14:28 - Physiological limitations on VO2 max
2:19:07 - The different energy systems used during work, and other things to monitor like VCO2 and heart rate
2:24:03 - Lactate threshold and other metrics to guide your training

Alex Aravanis is a leader in research and development of technologies and clinical tests utilizing the latest tools in DNA analysis and data science. In this episode, Alex delves into two interconnected topics: liquid biopsies and epigenetics. He begins by tracing the trajectory of genome sequencing and tumor sequencing, setting the stage for a detailed exploration of liquid biopsies as an early cancer detection method. The discussion encompasses key concepts such as cell-free DNA, DNA methylation, sensitivity, specificity, and the predictive values associated with liquid biopsies. Transitioning to epigenetics, Alex examines the intricate interplay of DNA methylation and aging biology and explores the possibility of using cellular reprogramming to reverse epigenetic changes that occur with aging.
We discuss:
0:00:00 - Intro
0:00:08 - Alex’s background in applying engineering to problems in medicine
0:19:57 - A primer on human genetics, and the history and current landscape of DNA sequencing
0:24:05 - The advent and evolution of liquid biopsies for early detection of cancer
0:44:14 - The role of cell-free DNA in cancer detection: how incidental findings in non-invasive prenatal testing led to the development of liquid biopsies
0:51:05 - The development of a universal blood test for cancer detection and a discussion of specificity of tests
0:56:48 - Advancements in cell-free DNA analysis and development of a multi-cancer screening test at GRAIL
1:05:27 - DNA methylation explained
1:11:00 - Optimizing cancer detection with methylation analysis of cfDNA in small blood samples
1:17:22 - The importance of understanding sensitivity, specificity, positive predictive value, and negative predictive value in cancer screening
1:32:57 - The performance of the GRAIL Galleri test and its ability to detect various types and stages of cancer
1:41:05 - Do early cancer detection methods, like liquid biopsies, translate to improvement in overall survival?
1:54:45 - The role of epigenetics in aging
2:01:58 - How cell-free DNA methylation patterns can help identify a cancer’s tissue of origin
2:09:48 - Cellular and epigenetic reprogramming and other exciting work in the field of aging

He then delves into the various screening modalities available for different cancers, highlights the pros and cons associated with each, and explains how to interpret the results.
