In this episode, we sit down with geneticist Ryan Rosner, PhD, to explore what our DNA can tell us about performance, health, longevity, and the future of human enhancement.
We get into the genetics of elite athletes like Devin Larratt, what genetic sequencing can actually reveal, “superhuman” mutations, gene therapy, cognition, mitochondrial function, bone density, Alzheimer’s risk, peptides, supplementation, and whether we’re approaching a point where humans can intentionally alter their own biology.
Ryan also explains why he believes genetic sequencing is one of the most underutilized tools available today, where the science is still limited, and why the next generation of gene therapies could look very different from anything we’ve seen before.

Steve joins Mark Bell’s Power Project to tell the story of going from elite-level strength and chasing a 2,000-pound powerlifting total to sudden kidney failure, five years of dialysis, and ultimately receiving a kidney transplant from his sister.Steve explains how his health deteriorated seemingly overnight, why doctors eventually determined that a rare genetic condition played a major role in his kidney failure, what dialysis actually feels like, and how close he came to believing he might not survive.He also opens up about losing the identity he had built around strength, accepting that he may never lift the numbers he once did, the loyalty his wife showed him at his lowest point, and how surviving the experience completely changed his priorities.The conversation also covers blood work and kidney-health markers, performance-enhancing drugs, training and gaining size, entrepreneurship, near-death experiences, family, faith, and learning to appreciate the life you still have.Follow Steve: @ptfitness500Special perks for our listeners below!🥩 HIGH QUALITY PROTEIN! 🍖 ➢ https://goodlifeproteins.com/ Code POWER to save 20% off site wide, or code POWERPROJECT to save an additional 5% off your Build a Box Subscription!🩸 Get your BLOODWORK/TRT/PEPTIDES! 🩸 ➢ https://marekhealth.com and use code "POWERPROJECT" for 10% off Self-Service Labs and Guided Optimization®.🧠 Methylene Blue: Better Focus, Sleep and Mood 🧠 Use Code POWER10 for 10% off!➢https://troscriptions.com?utm_source=affiliate&ut-m_medium=podcast&ut-m_campaign=MarkBel-I_podcastBest 5 Finger Barefoot Shoes! 👟 ➢ https://Peluva.com/PowerProject Code POWERPROJECT15 to save 15% off Peluva Shoes!Self Explanatory 🍆 ➢ Enlarging Pumps (This really works): https://bit.ly/powerproject1Pumps explained: https://youtu.be/qPG9JXjlhpM?si=JZN09-FakTjoJuaW🚨 The Best Red Light Therapy Devices and Blue Blocking Glasses On The Market! 😎➢https://emr-tek.com/Use code: POWERPROJECT to save 20% off your order!👟 BEST LOOKING AND FUNCTIONING BAREFOOT SHOES 🦶➢https://vivobarefoot.com/powerproject🥶 The Best Cold Plunge Money Can Buy 🥶 ➢ https://thecoldplunge.com/ Code POWERPROJECT to save $150!!➢ https://withinyoubrand.com/ Code POWERPROJECT to save 15% off supplements!➢ https://markbellslingshot.com/ Code POWERPROJECT to save 15% off all gear and apparel!Follow Mark Bell's Power Project Podcast➢ https://www.PowerProject.live➢ https://lnk.to/PowerProjectPodcast➢ Insta: https://www.instagram.com/markbellspowerproject➢ YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/markbellspowerprojectFOLLOW Mark Bell➢ Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/marksmellybell➢https://www.tiktok.com/@marksmellybell➢ Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/MarkBellSuperTraining➢ Twitter: https://twitter.com/marksmellybellFollow Nsima Inyang➢ Ropes and equipment : https://thestrongerhuman.store➢ Community & Courses: https://www.skool.com/thestrongerhuman➢ YouTube : https://www.youtube.com/c/NsimaInyang➢ Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/nsimainyang/?hl=e#PowerProject #Podcast #MarkBell #FitnessPodcast #markbellspowerproject

Follow: @jonathanjarecki @TheSignalWithJonathanJarecki  Jonathan Jurecki joins Mark Bell’s Power Project to break down how sunlight, red and infrared light, blue light, and our modern indoor environment may influence mitochondrial function, circadian rhythms, melatonin, eye health, vitamin D, and overall health.Jonathan explains why he considers natural sunlight the ultimate form of red light therapy, why some commercial red light devices may be unnecessarily intense, how infrared light interacts with mitochondria, and why simply changing the light environment around you could be an overlooked piece of health and performance.They also discuss sunscreen, sun exposure and skin cancer, incandescent bulbs, LEDs, morning sunlight, vitamin D supplementation, blue-blocking glasses, and practical ways to bring more natural-spectrum light into everyday life.Special perks for our listeners below!🥩 HIGH QUALITY PROTEIN! 🍖 ➢ https://goodlifeproteins.com/ Code POWER to save 20% off site wide, or code POWERPROJECT to save an additional 5% off your Build a Box Subscription!🩸 Get your BLOODWORK/TRT/PEPTIDES! 🩸 ➢ https://marekhealth.com and use code "POWERPROJECT" for 10% off Self-Service Labs and Guided Optimization®.🧠 Methylene Blue: Better Focus, Sleep and Mood 🧠 Use Code POWER10 for 10% off!➢https://troscriptions.com?utm_source=affiliate&ut-m_medium=podcast&ut-m_campaign=MarkBel-I_podcastBest 5 Finger Barefoot Shoes! 👟 ➢ https://Peluva.com/PowerProject Code POWERPROJECT15 to save 15% off Peluva Shoes!Self Explanatory 🍆 ➢ Enlarging Pumps (This really works): https://bit.ly/powerproject1Pumps explained: https://youtu.be/qPG9JXjlhpM?si=JZN09-FakTjoJuaW🚨 The Best Red Light Therapy Devices and Blue Blocking Glasses On The Market! 😎➢https://emr-tek.com/Use code: POWERPROJECT to save 20% off your order!
