Manage episode 486477826 series 3626440
What if aging wasn’t about decline—but about thriving? In this powerful conversation, performance physiologist and global coach Dr. Mark Kovacs breaks down what it truly takes for men to live younger, longer, and stronger. We unpack the real science behind longevity, the myths around testosterone, and why “durability” matters more than obsessing over age. This is not a conversation about hacks—it’s a blueprint for sustainable, purposeful living.
