EPISODE 1
THE WAR NO ONE TALKS ABOUT — AND WHY SLEEP IS THE FIRST BATTLE
Most men over 50 are losing a health war they don't know they're fighting. This episode covers the core premise of Win the Long War and goes deep on Chapter 1 — why sleep is the non-negotiable foundation, what poor sleep actually costs a male body over 50, and the complete Sleep Protocol.
EPISODE 2
WHAT TO EAT AND WHAT ACTUALLY WORKS IN SUPPLEMENT FORM
Chapters 2 and 2B — the Will Power nutrition framework and the supplement protocol built around peer-reviewed evidence. The Foundation Four (creatine, omega-3, vitamin D3/K2, magnesium glycinate), what's in the Second Tier, and what's pure marketing. No brand deals, no affiliate stacks.
EPISODE 3
MOVE EVERY DAY AND PICK UP SOMETHING HEAVY
Chapters 3 and 4 — the daily movement protocol and the case for resistance training after 50. What sarcopenia actually is, why grip strength predicts longevity, and the compound movement framework and weekly strength template that builds the muscle men over 50 cannot afford to lose.
EPISODE 4
BUILD THE AEROBIC ENGINE AND KEEP A RACE ON THE CALENDAR
Chapters 5 and 6 — Zone 2 training for VO2 max, BDNF production, and metabolic health, plus why a race on the calendar is a longevity tool, not a vanity project. The polarized training model and the ikigai research on purpose and mortality.
EPISODE 5
THE HARDEST BATTLE — AND THE WEEKLY SYSTEM THAT WINS IT
Chapter 7 and The Battle Plan — the mind chapter and the complete day-by-day weekly system. Why willpower depletes, how to design an environment where right choices are easier than wrong ones, and the Battle Plan in full: Monday through Sunday, eight pillars, one integrated system.
