Travel is a logistical stress test. For the high-performing individual, it introduces variables that threaten the stability of your most valuable asset: your body.

In this episode, we dismantle the "allostatic load" of the modern business traveller. We are not interested in motivation or "finding the time." We are interested in the physiological data required to maintain performance when your environment is working against you.

From the hypoxic environment of the cabin to the insulin-spiking nature of airport food, we analyse how to mitigate depreciation and maintain readiness.

We cover:

Circadian Engineering: Why you are using melatonin wrong and how to use your "Temperature Minimum" (Tmin) to eliminate jet lag.
The "Zero-Option" Protocol: How to execute a structural balance workout in a hotel room with zero equipment.
Nutritional Triage: A logical framework for navigating airport terminals, fast food chains, and client dinners without derailment.
Sleep Architecture: Counteracting the "First Night Effect" to ensure cognitive recovery in unfamiliar environments.

Stop relying on willpower. Start using a protocol.
