In this episode, Horacio Anselmi—Argentina's most influential strength and conditioning coach and trainer of Olympic athletes—reveals the real science behind high human performance. We discuss genetics, strength, neuroplasticity, testosterone, the nervous system, activation, and why most people only use 25% of their true strength. Anselmi explains how to identify your ideal sport based on your DNA, which metrics predict a champion, how to train to multiply your strength sevenfold, why the Spartans possessed superhuman capabilities, and how the Argentine genetic mix creates athletes unique in the world.

We also discuss how to train correctly (what works and what doesn't), the truth about steroids, the new technologies transforming sports, ancestral nutrition, the impact of social media on the discipline, and what it truly means to "be strong" in the 21st century. A profound, scientific, and philosophical episode about the body, the mind, and building the best version of yourself. If you're interested in performing better, living a better life, and understanding your biological potential, this podcast is for you.
