Optimizing the Human OS
Bob Troia Aka “Quantified Bob” – Technology Entrepreneur, Biohacker, and Self-Quantification Geek
Today’s guest is Bob Troia - or “Quantified Bob” as he calls himself. Bob is not the average health and fitness geek; he’s a geek’s geek. With a background as a software engineer, Bob takes personal data analysis to a whole new level. As you’ll quickly learn, he takes his tracking very seriously.
In this episode, we talk about the API Bob’s built for his personal data, the underlying software architecture, his tracking strategy, and some of the data analysis tools he uses to make sense of the massage amounts of data he’s collecting. If you love to geek-out on apps and tools as much as we do, Bob has you covered. He gives us an inside look at exactly what he uses, how he uses it, and why it’s important.
Not only do we dive into the super geeky stuff—which we love—we also cover a wide-ranging list of topics that can be applied to anyone looking to live a longer, healthier life, including:
- What environmental factors he monitors and manages (e.g. air quality, water quality, and the electromagnetic radiation)
- How Bob uses data to personalize his diet
- What it means to build a biohacking gym
- Why Bob thinks Epigenetics are more important than Genetics
- And of course, all of the wonderful data tracking and analyzing tools your heart desires
This episode was a tech-lovers dream. We hope you enjoy the conversation as much as we did! Please don’t forget to share the podcast with your friends, family, and colleagues.

The Other 22 Hours
Phil White – Health and Fitness Writer
Today’s guest is an Emmy-nominated writer and the co-author of Waterman 2.0, The 17 Hour Fast, Game Changer, and Unplugged. Besides being an all around great person, Phil’s work has been a staple of modern athletes and fitness experts. Beginning with Unplugged, he’s helped a new generation re-engage with nature by spending less time indoors and more time outside.
A modern mountain man with a different approach to building a healthy lifestyle, Phil flips the focus from what you’re doing during exercise periods to what you’re doing in the remaining 22 hours of your day. Too many of us really put our focus on maximizing our exercise patterns but then lose sight of the benefits that come outside of the gym. Phil really breaks down the mindset and lifestyle changes that allow you to unlock your potential.
In addition to talking through his expertise in healthy living, we dive into a few pro tips, including:
- Why the 17-hour fast program works
- Superior breathing techniques he uses during workouts
- How he winds down for sleep
If you haven’t already, add Phil’s books to your summer reading list. We hope you enjoy the conversation as much as we did! Please don’t forget to share the podcast with your friends, family, and colleagues.
We hope you enjoy!
