2023 Q3 Typical Day

Thought I’d share out what a typical day looks like.

  • 0700: wake + pre-workout 12 oz water + pre-workout mix (similar to Bryan Johnson’s green giant)
  • 0715 - 0745: workout
  • 0745 - 0815: protein shake (shakeology) + Grooming (brush teeth / dress / shower / etc.)
  • 0815 - 0900: Study (AI / Startups)
  • 0900 - 1200: Block 1*
  • 1200 - 1230: Lunch (5 - 10 m) + Walk (audiobook or chat) or Game with Team
  • 1230 - 1430: Block 2*
  • 1430 - 1500: Break (walk or commute)
  • 1500 - 1830: Block 3*
  • 1830 - 2000: Dinner + Brush Teeth + Walk + Show
  • 2000 - 2230: Study
  • 2230 - 0700: Sleep

*Blocks are split by “bio breaks” – everytime before I sit down I pound 12 oz of water, than I take a micro break when I need to use the restroom, this insures I stand up every 1-2 hours

*Note, while I exercise I’m either also socializing or studying via audiobook so a few books a month is very doable depending on how dense it is

Few other notes in the week:

  • Saturday is similar, but my work blocks go into home projects, study, or LL overtime in that order.
  • Sunday we do a two hour hike, 2-3 hours of meal prep, then we plan our week together, and the evening is reserved for leisure.
  • One night a week I have a game night.

I do have a routine on a broader scale as well (monthly, quarterly, bi-annual, annual) I can go into more detail if interested. I do intend to specifically followup on what my longevity system is i.e. what metrics I assess against.
