    254. How to Build Muscle and Lose Fat at the Same Time

    19-03-2026 | 11 Min.
    Every summer, millions of people panic-diet and over-cardio their way to frustration, and then wonder why the results never stick past September. The summer body you’re chasing has nothing to do with crash dieting and everything to do with body composition: the ratio of lean muscle to body fat that determines how your body actually looks, regardless of what the scale reads. Stop getting ready for summer, start building a body that’s already ready.

    253. Dr. Jessica Shepherd: On Menopause, HRT, and Longevity Tips for Women

    17-03-2026 | 1 u. 21 Min.
    Most women spend years dismissing their own symptoms: brain fog, frozen shoulder, mood crashes, vanishing libido, never realizing these aren’t signs of aging, they’re signals of a hormonal shift that begins nearly a decade before menopause hits. Today, I’m with board-certified OB-GYN and menopause expert Dr. Jessica Shepherd to dismantle the myths that have kept millions of women unnecessarily suffering, including the misrepresented WHI study that put hormone therapy off the table for a generation.

    252. What Is Bioavailability and Why It Matters for Your Supplements

    12-03-2026 | 10 Min.
    You’ve been told that supplements just make “expensive urine,” and if you’re taking the wrong forms, that criticism is completely valid. In this episode, I’m breaking down the science of bioavailability and exposing why the supplement industry has been prioritizing cost and shelf stability over what actually works in your body. From creatine HCl vs. monohydrate to methylfolate vs. folic acid, the form of a nutrient determines whether it does anything at all.

    250. How to Balance Female Hormones Naturally: Blood Sugar, Estrogen, & Cortisol

    05-03-2026 | 8 Min.
    Hormones don’t randomly fail; they respond to signals from your blood sugar, your liver, your gut, your nervous system, and your cycle. In this episode, I lay out a 4-step female hormone reset protocol designed to restore communication between the brain, ovaries, adrenal glands, gut, and liver without jumping straight to supplements.

Over The Ultimate Human with Gary Brecka

Gary Brecka is a Human Biologist, biohacker, researcher, and an anti-aging and longevity expert. His approach to health is simple: "Aging is the aggressive pursuit of comfort." For over 20 years, he worked in the life insurance industry predicting mortality. This meant if he got 5 years of medical records and 5 years of demographic data on you, the team that he was associated with could tell a life insurance company how long you had to live to the month. After years and years of doing this type of research and analysis, he decided he wanted to spend the balance of his lifetime helping people live happier, healthier, longer, more fulfilling lives. With this mission in mind, he created The Ultimate Human podcast. In this weekly podcast, Gary has exciting conversations with celebrities, athletes, entrepreneurs, and scientists and is thrilled to share their transformative insights with you. What's keeping you from being an ultimate human? Tune in to find out. For more info on Gary, click here: https://link.me/garybrecka
