In this high-performance episode of The Gynergy Effect, Garin sits down with entrepreneur and performance operator Chris Sands to unpack what it really means to engineer your edge.
Chris operates at the intersection of real estate, wellness, and biohacking with one clear philosophy: winning is cumulative, intentional, and built through systems that hold under pressure.
This conversation goes far beyond supplements and cold plunges. It dives into dopamine, masculinity, stress, discipline, anxiety, addiction cycles, and how men can design their biology and habits to create durable advantage over the long term.
From high-pressure real estate environments to overcoming anxiety and rebuilding his nervous system, Chris shares how treating your body like a business changes everything.
In this episode, we explore:
• The biggest lie the wellness industry tells you
• Why “normal ranges” do not mean optimal
• How cheap dopamine quietly erodes your drive and discipline
• The psychological and biological roots of male anxiety
• Why stress tolerance defines your relationships and performance
• The truth about porn, addiction cycles, and breaking shame
• How to rotate protein sources and personalize nutrition
• Morning sunlight, hydration, breathwork, and foundational biohacks
• Why most men sabotage themselves through self-sacrifice
• The difference between loud masculinity and calm, grounded strength
• The real reason discipline creates freedom
• How to audit your body like you audit a business
Chris breaks down practical, actionable strategies that give you 80% of the results without overcomplicating the process.
This episode is for the men who want to feel sharper, stronger, calmer, and more in control. It is for the entrepreneurs who refuse to burn out. And it is for anyone ready to stop consuming cheap dopamine and start building earned momentum.
Because winning is not an event. It is engineered.
