🔴 What if your recovery routine didn’t require 3 separate devices?Red light therapy has exploded in popularity & for good reason.It supports circulation, mitochondrial function, & tissue recovery.

🧠 You might be performing at 60–70% and not even know itMost wearables track what already happened: • Steps • Heart rate • Movement • “Neck-down” signalsBut in Episode 244, Dexter Ang explains why true performance starts before all of that… in the brain.Using neural reaction time, his work measures how quickly the brain processes a signal before the body even moves. That single metric has been used for decades to quantify cognitive states across medicine, science, and even aerospace.This approach reveals: ✅ Cognitive readiness ✅ Mental fatigue before burnout hits ✅ Performance capacity across mind, body, and sleepInstead of guessing from trends, it shows what’s actually happening at the source.🎧 Watch the full conversation on the High Performance Longevity Podcast to learn how brain-first measurement changes performance tracking.#brainperformance #wearables #cognitivereadiness #reactiontime #neurotech #biohacking #longevity #highperformancelongevity #outliyr
🧠 What if your brain isn’t underperforming… you’re just not measuring it correctly?Most people assume their cognition is “fine.”But according to decades of research... including methods developed by NASA, many people operate at 60–70% of their true cognitive capacity without realizing it.Dexter Ang explains how reaction time became the gold-standard way to measure brain performance across aerospace, medicine, & neuroscience & why it reveals far more than IQ or subjective feeling.🎧 Episode 244 of the High Performance Longevity Podcast breaks down:✅ Why reaction time reflects real-world cognition ✅ How NASA standardized cognitive performance testing ✅ What brain optimization actually means (and how it’s measured)#brainperformance #cognition #reactiontime #neuroscience #mentalperformance #longevity #biohacking #highperformancelongevity #outliyr
