Longevity isn’t just about living longer—it’s about staying sharp and mobile the whole way through. I don’t want to spend my later years in a chair, disconnected from the world around me. I want to travel, move freely, remember names, faces, and stories from decades ago. To me, true longevity means maintaining mobility and cognition—for life. Credits: @shawnmodel | Mark Sisson

Hydrogen water? Not legit. At 39, you’re not decaying—you’re just undertrained. Prioritize protein (120g/day), lift heavy twice a week, and stop overdoing the cardio. Spinning and Barry’s every day? That’s muscle-wasting. Walk more. Sprint occasionally. Train smart. Stay strong. Ask me your questions! | Mark Sisson

I’ve launched something new — my latest passion project: Untethered. It’s a place where I’ll write freely about the ideas that capture my curiosity — from AI and human potential to world events and cultural shifts. Think of it as the unfiltered side of my brain, separate from Mark’s Daily Apple, where I can explore the big questions shaping the future of health, freedom, and humanity. In my bio, you can find the blog and join me on this next chapter — living, thinking, and creating untethered. |

Not everyone was born to run — and that’s okay. Most people don’t need to log miles to get fit; they need to move smarter. Pounding the pavement day after day, especially with extra weight, can do more harm than good. The goal isn’t to chase pain or exhaustion — it’s to build a body that moves well, feels strong, and lasts for decades. Walk, lift, sprint occasionally, and enjoy the process Watch the full version on The Model Health Show @shawnmodel | Mark Sisson

One of my go-to workouts is a 60-second rope pull—full intensity, as fast as you can. It’s brutal, but it’s over in a minute. After a short rest, I repeat it four times and that’s my workout for the day. But fitness isn’t just about pushing limits; it’s about having fun too. Whether I’m paddleboarding with dolphins or riding a fat bike in the sand with my wife, I make sure to enjoy the process. Play and fun are essential parts of my routine, not just regimented workouts. | Mark Sisson

My mid-morning routine is all about movement. Around 10:30 or 11 AM, I take a break to get in a workout. Most days, it’s a weightlifting session at the gym. Other days, I’ll put on a weight vest and go for a long walk. Once a week, I push myself with a high-intensity aerobic session, staying in zones 3, 4, and even touching zone 5 for up to an hour. This usually takes about 90 minutes. Another day each week, I’ll paddleboard—thanks to a board I keep on the bay side in Miami, where conditions are

Life was never meant to be lived in constant restriction. You weren’t designed to white-knuckle every meal, every workout, or every choice. Real health is flexible, built on eating well most of the time, moving daily, sleeping deeply, and still fully enjoying the meal, the glass of wine, the laughter, and the moment. Longevity isn’t about surviving longer, it’s about living better. | Mark Sisson

Humans weren’t built for chairs, screens, and stillness. We were built to walk, carry, squat, climb, sprint, and play—every single day. Movement isn’t “exercise.” It’s a biological requirement. When you move often, your joints stay young, your metabolism stays sharp, your mind stays clear, and your body remembers what it was designed to do. You don’t need more hacks. You need to move like a human again. | Mark Sisson

“What’s something you’ve completely changed your mind about in the last 20 or 30 years?” For me… almost nothing. I’ve always held deep appreciation for the life force within us—knowing it’s temporary doesn’t scare me. It grounds me. Every day is a gift, and I’m here to extract as much joy, fulfillment, and meaning from it as I can. That’s the perspective that’s guided me and it still does.

When I was a high-performance endurance athlete, I was wickedly fit but not healthy. I was lucky to get into endurance sports early and even luckier to leave them early. For 10-20 years, I did too much endurance work and not enough lifting. Eventually, I recognized my mistake, started lifting, and stopped running so much—eventually, I stopped running altogether. Now, I focus on life skills and overall fitness. I lift a little, stand-up paddle a little, ride my bike a little, and play ultimate fr

When I moved to California in the late 1970’s, I thought it was for forever. The Golden State really was the land of opportunity in so many areas. Unfortunately, in the 2000’s California started to go downhill. Mismanagement and incompetence in government at every level, high taxes, oppressive business regulations, failing infrastructure, the apparent encouragement of crime and homelessness, etc., and that decline has only accelerated. I moved to Miami Beach in 2017 on a whim and fell in love wi

Our ancestors didn’t push through pain, unless it was truly life-threathening—they listened to their bodies, because injury often meant death. They weren’t chasing personal records or grinding through one more rep; survival demanded intuition, not ego. That same wisdom lives in us today. Every time you feel that inner voice saying “enough,” that’s your biology protecting you. Ignore it, and you risk injury. Honor it, and you build longevity. Sometimes the smartest move isn’t pushing harder—it’s

Welp, I turned 72 today. I try not to obsess about it. The years just fly by. The hip replacement was the big event for me this year, and I feel like I’m back to 100%. As you may know, I’m the original anti-biohacker. I don’t do wearable devices, trackers, protocols, therapies, or hot/cold regimens. Yeah, I do a little trt, but that’s pretty much it. Diet is still 80% of my body comp focus. I don’t train all that hard anymore, most of it intuitively and all based on how I feel that day. Almost n

Running or jogging every day isn’t the secret to longevity — walking is. New studies are continuing to confirm this. Yes, we’re born to move around a lot, but for most people, pounding the pavement daily at 8–12 minute/mile pace just doesn’t generate the health benefits they are looking for. And it can negatively affect your joints, hormones, mood, and even digestion. It’s one of the worst choices for weight loss too. (Because running at too high a heart rate burns more glycogen than fat and it

When I’m preparing steaks at home, I like to keep things efficient and practical. I buy my steaks in bulk—these ones are from Whole Foods—and prep them for freezing to ensure they stay fresh. Here’s my process: I leave the steak in its protective paper wrapping, then wrap it again in foil to prevent freezer burn. I do this for each steak, stack them up, and store them in the freezer. When it’s time to cook, I grab a frozen steak, place it in a mixing bowl with warm water, and let it thaw for abo

When we talk about food, we’ve got to break it down to the essentials. Protein is the cornerstone—it’s the most critical macronutrient we consume. If your diet is built around high-quality protein, with some healthy fat and a flexible approach to carbs, you’re on solid ground. From there, it’s just about figuring out how much protein you’re willing to eat and how much carbohydrate you want to include to make the experience enjoyable—because food should be both nourishing and pleasurable. This is

The key to long-term health isn’t about rigid rules—it’s about understanding yourself. Knowing when you’ve had enough food, when that second glass of wine is your limit, or when pushing through a workout might do more harm than good. It’s about making intuitive choices based on self-awareness, not external expectations. The goal? To trust yourself, honor your body, and feel confident in the decisions you make for your health. | Mark Sisson

Walking does far more than just help you hit your step count—it reorganizes and strengthens your entire kinetic chain. Many people think they have “bad” movement patterns—whether it’s being duck-footed, knock-kneed, or pigeon-toed—but the truth is, your body is perfectly designed for you, as long as your brain receives the right sensory feedback from your feet. When you walk barefoot or in minimalist shoes, your feet adapt to the ground, engaging muscles, adjusting arches, and stabilizing your k

Your health should always be your top priority, and it starts with finding time to move. If you can make time to run, you can certainly make time for a brisk walk. Add variety to your walks—try a weighted vest, or walk backwards on a treadmill to strengthen your knees, tibialis, and lower legs, as championed by Ben Patrick’s “knees over toes” program. Walking isn’t just simple—it’s versatile, effective, and essential for your well-being. My new book, Born to Walk: The Broken Promises of the Runn

People often ask about my daily routine, so here it is: I start my day around 7 AM with a big cup of coffee and two newspapers—the New York Times and the Wall Street Journal. I like to get both sides of the story. Then I spend about 40 minutes doing puzzles, which has become a favorite hobby of mine. After that, I dive into work. With my new business, Peluva, I’m back in the thick of things—answering emails, meeting with my team, hopping on Zoom calls, and occasionally doing a podcast. Around 10

When I shop for food, I head straight to the meat counter. My go-to? A pasture-raised New York strip. That’s the cut that consistently delivers for me. Here’s what I look for: animal welfare standards, no hormones, no antibiotics, and great marbling for flavor. While every steak is grass-fed for most of its life, I don’t shy away from grain-finished cuts—they taste better, and the difference in fatty acid profiles is negligible. Let’s be honest, you’re not buying steak for omega-3s; it’s about t

Every day, I aim to do something hard to earn the simpler moments that follow. Whether it’s a tough workout, fasting, a cold plunge, a sauna session, or grinding out a piece for a deadline, these challenges make the day’s mediocrity feel well-deserved. Tackling hard things not only gives the mind a sense of accomplishment but also creates space to relax, reflect, and feel aligned with a deeper purpose—like earning the right to carry forward life’s legacy. | Mark Sisson
