👋 Hey. Welcome to issue #152 of The Everyday Athlete Newsletter.
Here are my 3 favourite ideas, learns and resources to help you improve your performance this week (4 min read):
🧠 5-second reframe that makes food and exercise (and life) better
Most see health as just muscles and macros.
But it’s also your nervous system, thought patterns, and awareness.
And presence pulls it all together.
Here’s a reframe I’ve been using to get out of my head and back in the room:
Whenever I catch myself ruminating on random sh*t. Whether it's eating lunch, training, walking, with friends or family...
I try jump in and reframe:
“Imagine this was the last…”
Last lunch I’ll ever eat. Last session I’ll ever do. Last walk I’ll ever take. Last car trip with my wife.
Works like magic. I’m back.
And when we bring this presence into health:
- 🥑 Food: We enjoy our food more (maybe even a tiny food-gasm 🍆 like the bloke in the photo above), we don’t overeat, we notice how different foods affect us
- 🏋️ Training: We tune in to our body’s signals (see interoception), which improves form, decision-making, and performance
- 🧘 Everyday life: Less stress, less autopilot and more conscious of our choices, we might notice how we’re breathing, more present for the things that matter
Your brain is part of your body. Treat em as one, and everything works better.
🏥 $15m says this is the future of preventative health in Aus
Everlabs are at the forefront of preventative medicine in Australia.
Clinics currently in Sydney, Brisbane, Melbourne and Perth.
They call themselves a "longevity clinic". But if you've got a bit of anti-the-longevity-crowd-energy, don't let it put you off.
Because it's really just comprehensive health testing (that we just don't get access to through the traditional system).
Particularly beneficial for identifying early disease risk and where your biomarkers should sit.
They just raised $15m. Great to see in Aus. This stuff's only going one way.

That's it!
Have a great weekend 🤙
