Don't Die: Endurance Secrets of the Sherpa

New science on a group of the world's fittest humans reveals endurance insights.

We’re covering what new science can tell us about the “super-athlete” physiology of the Nepali Sherpa and how you can boost your endurance.

High-altitude mountaineering is arguably the most taxing endurance sport on the planet, and the Sherpa people are revered as the most naturally gifted athletes in the sport.

Scientists at the University of Cambridge studied the Sherpa and discovered a few fascinating facts that might alter medicine and should change how we think about endurance exercise.

We’ll cover the Sherpa secret and also explain a specific workout that can help you mimic the benefits the Sherpa see. It’ll help you build far better endurance and metabolic health no matter who you are.

I’m out in the wilderness for a couple months, so our audio was generated with AI.
