Remote Work Is Making You FATTER (Do THIS to Stop It) : 1340

from The Human Upgrade: Biohacking for Longevity & Performance

Remote work might feel like freedom, but your biology disagrees. In this video, I break down how your work-from-home setup is hijacking your hormones: crushing testosterone, spiking cortisol, and wrecking insulin sensitivity. I’ll show you exactly how posture, light, movement, and meal timing secretly control fat gain, energy crashes, and libido drops... and how to take back control without quitting your job or starving yourself. This is about biohacking your environment to work for you—not against you.Chapters:0:00 – Introduction1:04 – How Working From Home Disrupts Your Biology1:58 – The Silent Hormonal Downshift of Remote Workers3:29 – How Posture Sends Stress Signals to Your Brain4:49 – Fix This: 3 Postural Resets to Normalize Hormones5:50 – The Hormone Remote Work Destroys Most: Insulin6:59 – How To Restore Insulin Sensitivity9:45 – Why Light Is More Powerful Than FoodConnect with Dave Asprey!Website: https://daveasprey.comTikTok: https://www.tiktok.com/@daveaspreyofficialInstagram: https://www.instagram.com/dave.asprey/Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/Daveaspreyofficial/X: https://x.com/daveaspreyYouTube: https://www.youtube.com/c/daveaspreybprThe Human Upgrade Podcast: https://www.instagram.com/TheHumanUpgradePodcast/ https://m.facebook.com/Thehumanupgrade/Danger Coffee: https://dangercoffee.com/DAVE15Dave Asprey’s BEYOND Conference: https://beyondconference.com/Dave Asprey’s New Book - Heavily Meditated: https://daveasprey.com/heavily-meditated/Upgrade Collective: https://www.ourupgradecollective.comUpgrade Labs: https://upgradelabs.com40 Years of Zen: https://40yearsofzen.comTrueDark Glasses: https://truedark.com/See Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.
