Zone 2 is one of five levels of intensity used by coaches and trainers in endurance sports. Some models have five zones, but others have six or seven. Typically, zone 1 is a walk in the park and zone 5 (or 6, or 7) is an all-out sprint. Zone 2 is more or less the same in all training models: going at a speed slow enough that one can still maintain a conversation but fast enough that the conversation might be a little strained. Zone 2 is a powerful mediator of metabolic health and glucose homeostasis. For some people, a brisk walk might get them into zone 2; for those in better condition, zone 2 means walking uphill. [2023] - Peter Attia

Give yourself enough time to sleep-what sleep scientists call a sleep opportunity. This means going to bed at least 8 hours before you need to wake up, preferably 9. Darken the room completely. Make it dark enough that you can't see your hand in front of your face with your eyes open, if possible. If that is not achievable, use an eye shade. I use a silky one called Alaska Bear. Fix your wake-up time-and don't deviate from it, even on weekends. If you need flexibility, you can vary your bed-time, but make it a priority to budget for at least 8 hours in bed each night. [2023] - Peter Attia

The European Central Bank has a specific mandate to protect against inflation—-economic growth is secondary. The American Federal Reserve’s role is to promote economic growth and jobs, as well as to watch against inflation. [2009] - James Chen
