Train Your Body, Save Your Brain: Fitness Blueprint Over 40 with Ted Ryce

Your next “brain upgrade” isn’t another productivity hack… but your TRAINING plan! In this episode of the Brain Fitness Podcast, I’m joined by Ted Ryce (Legendary Life Podcast), a high-performance health coach who helps entrepreneurs over 40 get leaner, stronger, and more energized; not for vanity, but for better mood, sharper focus, and long-term brain performance. We get into the real-world stuff: why many high achievers think they’re doing “enough,” but they’re not measuring the right things…and how simple data like DEXA scans, blood work, and VO2 max can cut through the noise so you stop guessing and start getting results.Question for you: What’s your biggest challenge right now, consistency, energy, stress, sleep, or knowing what to do?Free training — Lean After 40 Masterclass: https://www.legendarylifeprogram.com/auto-webinar-registration-25751695Timestamps:00:00 Why the body fuels the brain 04:00 Ted Ryce’s personal journey into fitness 07:30 Exercise, stress, and brain resilience 09:00 VO2 max explained for brain health & longevity 14:00 Why muscle mass supports metabolic and cognitive health 21:00 Fitness strategies for high-stress entrepreneurs 27:00 Strength training vs cardio for brain performance 41:00 Simple daily routines to improve focus and sleep 45:00 How to start training without burnoutConnect with Ted Ryce:https://www.legendarylifepodcast.com/Connect with Dr. Patrick Porter:https://drpatrickporter.com/https://www.instagram.com/drpatrickporter/https://www.facebook.com/DrPatrickPorter/https://www.youtube.com/c/drpatrickporterOther helpful links & information:http://www.braintap.pro/*Our content is for informational purposes only and should not be treated as medical or health advice.
