The Kris Gethin Podcast
Peptides have gone mainstream, but the information around them is still a mess. One search brings up five different doses, four delivery methods, and stacks loaded with compounds you may not even need. Too many people copy the protocol, skip the reasoning, and only start asking questions when their energy crashes, the side effects hit, or nothing happens at all. Alex Kikel and I break down how to approach these compounds with an actual plan. We get into protocols for beat-up joints, lagging muscle groups, stubborn fat, cognitive performance, sleep, and pineal support. We also compare...

What if optimizing your health isn’t just about training, nutrition, supplements, and sleep—but about the trillions of microorganisms living within and around you?

Bryan Johnson's recent autoimmune diagnosis has sparked an important conversation throughout the biohacking community. In this episode, Kris Gethin explores what this moment means—not as a criticism of Bryan's dedication, but as an opportunity to ask bigger questions about health, longevity, and the limits of optimization. Kris discusses the difference between collecting health data and creating true health, why modern lifestyles often disconnect us from our biological foundations, and how factors like sunlight, movement, grounding, nutrition, and resilience may matter more than endlessly...

Biohacking has become the new status symbol. Everyone wants the chamber, the wearable, the peptide, the IV, the stem cells, the red light, and the expensive recovery tool. But there is a problem most people do not want to admit: the body may not respond to the expensive stuff if the foundation underneath it is weak. In this episode, I’m talking about the part of biohacking that does not look impressive online but changes how well everything else works. The part people skip before they spend thousands trying to fix their energy, sleep, recovery, hormones, body composition, inflammation,...

Discover the science behind Tesamorelin, a research peptide targeting visceral fat and promoting health span. Kris Gethin breaks down its mechanisms, research findings, and implications for fat distribution and longevity. Tesamorelin is a synthetic analog of growth hormone release hormone (GHRH), stimulating the pituitary to release endogenous growth hormone rather than supplying synthetic GH. It primarily targets deep visceral fat, especially around organs, instead of just superficial subcutaneous fat. Visceral fat is linked to metabolic diseases, inflammation, insulin resistance, and...

Most people think they know what they’re eating because they read the label. Grass-fed. Organic. High protein. Product of the USA. Low calorie. Clean ingredients. But that label is the end of the story, not the beginning. The beginning is the soil. The animal. The feed. The farm. The chemicals. The confinement. The way the food was raised, processed, mixed, marketed, and sold before it ever reached your plate. And that’s where a lot of people are getting fooled. In this episode of The Kris Gethin Podcast, I sit down with Will Harris, fourth-generation farmer and owner of White Oak...
info_outlineHoliday weight gain hits harder than people admit. It is the late nights, the drinks, the constant grazing and the zero structure that leave you softer, bloated and feeling slow. If you woke up in January and realized your metabolism is dragging, this episode is the wake up call you needed.
I walk you through the same high level reset I use with my one on one clients to pull down inflammation, tighten discipline and get fat loss moving again. We cover the routines that snap your body back into rhythm, the training style that forces immediate adaptation, the recovery tactics that flip your switches back on and the advanced tools people misuse every January. You will understand how to rebuild momentum without starving yourself or doing random workouts.
If you want to clean up the damage and walk into February sharper, leaner and in control, this is where the reset begins.
What's Discussed:
(00:02) Why holiday weight gain hits harder than you think
(04:10) The January structure Kris uses to snap metabolism back on
(07:25) The nutrient pattern that shuts down cravings fast
(11:40) The training style that forces your body to adapt after weeks off
