At the intersection of psychedelics & athletics there are many unknowns. Through community and research we are leading the exploration of this new frontier.

It doesn’t exactly take 4 hours. The perceived effects wear off after this period of time but the true benefits of mushrooms come during the full neuroplasticity window following the dose <— Especially if the dosed experience was unpleasant. 🛋️🥛

Your doctor can legally prescribe you something that takes 6 weeks to work, kills your sex drive, and requires 6 months to taper off. But a mushroom that works in 4 hours is Schedule I.

i think 2026 is the year of psychedelics, but i fucking hate that word. there is nothing psychedelic about heightened creativity, non-linear thinking, and improved verbal fluency. it's just smart optimization. you don't "trip". microdose and work. watch magic unfold.

WW psilocybin source is live. heard he's only got 50 units on hand right now, everything is made to harvest to keep it fresh and potent, so they move fast. i recommend 1-2 caps for a true microdose. it's ideal for creative work and just expanding your thinking beyond your usual, invisible box you operate within. it's also incredible as a social lubricant. or a higher dose... but we won't get into that, because that's not what we're here for. although i will say i took 8 or 9 capsules before a concert and had a pretty fucking incredible night. they come in capsule form. swallow like normal, with food to avoid any potential nausea. one thing i noticed is that they take a while to kick in - i didn't feel anything until 2 hours after dosing. keep this in mind when you decide your timing. PSA they say nothing about psilocybin on their website, for obvious reasons. it's presented as a "proprietary mushroom blend". but it's got the good stuff in it. you'll see. this stuff is incredible. posting an article on psilocybin tomorrow and diving more into the neuroprotective aspects too. i'm stoked about this. i used the normal "pure" formula, but testing the pure+ soon. ships from the US, worldwide. should not be an issue internationally as it comes presented as a normal adaptogen blend. lmtlsnootropics.com/basedbiohacker

For those of you hating, I've run a marathon, triathlon, a handful of 21k and I've even qualified for the Spartan Race World Champs and the OCR World Champs I do know what I'm talking about and sprinting will always win for maximizing health and hormones Not saying you shouldn't run long-distance once in a while for the lore tho Just know what you're getting into

I still don't understand why people keep running ultra marathons They destroy your joints and consume all your muscles. The long-term effects are simply horrible for your health If you want to maximize health, have elite cardio, maintain muscle mass and boost your hormones, there's nothing better than sprinting and the science backs it up

@ExistWell we introduce athletic consciousness, the athletes bond between mind & body built stronger through integration. dose. move. integrate. repeat. 🛋️🥛

Few have discovered this yet Halotestin + microdosed psilocybin is one of the most effective nootropic combinations on the planet It delivers androgenic drive, serotonergic plasticity + unlimited cognitive flexibility. Modafinil + bromantane is for toddlers

My personal prescription for depression: Take 20 micrograms of LSD and go for a hike. 1-2x per week, ideally when it's sunny outside. I posted this on X a few days ago, and it struck a nerve. Some people loved it, some thought I was reckless, & many were simply curious. So let me explain the science. A new paper just dropped in Discover Mental Health from Nicholas Fabiano, Robin Carhart-Harris, and colleagues. It's the first formal commentary arguing that exercise and psychedelics should be studied together for major depression. Up to 50% of people don't respond to antidepressants or therapy. Exercise works for roughly 1 in every 2 people with depression, a stronger hit rate than most antidepressants. Psychedelics show effects comparable to antidepressants that persist after the drug leaves your system. Both are powerful alone. But the real story is what happens when you layer them. The paper (linked below) maps out complementary mechanisms. Psychedelics spike cortical neuroplasticity through direct TrkB receptor binding, producing rapid spinogenesis within hours. Exercise drives hippocampal neurogenesis and sustained elevation of BDNF over time. Psychedelics temporarily disrupt default mode network connectivity, breaking rigid thought patterns. Exercise normalizes that connectivity, locking in the gains. They also converge on shared pathways: serotonin, glutamate/LTP, and dopamine signaling. Different entry points, but basically the same downstream effect: a more plastic, resilient brain. The behavioral data is just as compelling. In psilocybin therapy trials, up to half of the participants spontaneously reported improvements in diet and exercise. Ayahuasca users are consistently more physically active. People with lifetime psychedelic use show lower rates of heart disease, obesity, and diabetes. Psychedelics don't just change your brain chemistry. They actually change what you do with your body. This is why I coined the term "hikrodosing." It's not just a cute portmanteau. It's a protocol built on the convergence of these mechanisms. A sub-intoxicating dose of LSD paired with aerobic exercise in nature combines psychedelic neuroplasticity with exercise-driven BDNF, serotonin release, and hippocampal stimulation. Sunlight adds vitamin D and circadian regulation. The hike provides cardiovascular load. The microdose opens the plasticity window. No clinic, no 6-week waiting period, & no sexual side effects (I'm looking at you, SSRIs). The paper calls for formal research. I agree. But practitioners don't need to wait for an RCT to start moving their bodies on the days they microdose. Hikrodosing. Look it up. Or better yet, try it.

@NTFabiano This is cool. Did you explore the overlap of people taking low doses of psychedelics (eg 20 mics of L) while exercising? Cc: @RCarhartHarris
