🎙️ The LiveMore Podcast — Official Description (Optimised)
The LiveMore Podcast explores what it really means to live longer, healthier, and show up as your best self — every single day.
Hosted by Rob Shakhani (BioHackRob), this podcast sits at the intersection of peak human performance, health optimisation, and longevity, while openly confronting the trade-offs that rarely get discussed.
Because peak performance does not always equal optimal health.
Each episode dives into the biological, psychological, and lifestyle factors that shape how we think, move, work, recover, and age — blending quantitative metrics (biomarkers, physiology, performance) with qualitative dimensions (mental health, purpose, stress, relationships, meaning).
Through in-depth conversations with leading experts — from cardiologists and bone health specialists to mental health advocates and performance thinkers — the LiveMore Podcast tackles the questions that truly matter:
- How do we optimise healthspan, not just lifespan?
- When does performance enhancement start to undermine long-term health?
- What actually moves the needle for sustainable wellbeing?
- How do we build resilience — physically, mentally, and emotionally — in a demanding world?
Topics span heart health, metabolic health, bone density, mental health, suicide prevention, stress, sleep, exercise, nutrition, recovery, and longevity science, always with an emphasis on practicality, nuance, and real-world application.
This podcast is not medical advice.
It is a space for curiosity, critical thinking, and informed conversation — designed to share evidence-based perspectives, challenge simplistic narratives, and help you make better decisions for your own life.
If you care about living well, performing with intention, and building a body and mind that can carry you through life, this podcast is for you.
Train for life. Think long-term. LiveMore.

Peak Performance Starts with Your Bones: Aging & Longevity Explained with Gary Rhodes

Welcome to The LiveMore Podcast — Episode 1
In this first episode, I sit down with Gary Rhodes — bone-health specialist, founder of Screen My Bones, and a leading voice in early detection, skeletal performance, and long-term structural longevity.
Most people don’t realise this:
👉 We hit peak bone mass in our early 30s.
From that point on, your bone strength is either intentionally maintained… or silently declines.
For high-performers, athletes, and anyone focused on longevity, bone health isn’t optional. It’s foundational.
🦴 What We Cover in This Episode
• Why bone health is the hidden pillar of longevity, strength & mobility
• The rise of early osteoporosis (even in younger adults)
• Why traditional DXA scans often miss critical bone-quality data
• The science behind REMS (Echolight) — a radiation-free bone analysis
• Why REMS measures the spine + hips (the most meaningful fracture sites)
• How REMS assesses bone density and micro-architecture
• Why bone quality matters just as much as bone density
• Strength training, minerals, protein & metabolic health for bone optimisation
• How to proactively protect your skeletal health for the next 50+ years
• Why early detection is a core longevity strategy
🧪 What Is REMS (Radiofrequency Echographic Multi-Spectrometry)?
REMS is the most advanced radiation-free bone-scanning technology available today.
It measures:
• Bone density
• Bone quality
• Microstructural integrity
• Cortical vs trabecular strength
Compared to DXA, REMS offers:
• Zero radiation
• Higher accuracy for those with spinal degeneration
• Instant results
• Safe repeatability
• High precision & portability
For anyone serious about longevity, injury prevention, or peak performance, REMS is fast becoming the new gold standard.
💡 Clarification Note
During the episode, I referenced an approximate annual cost of £100 million for osteoporosis to the UK economy.
To clarify: updated data shows the true economic burden is much higher — approximately £4–5 billion per year, once fragility fractures, hospital admissions, long-term care, productivity losses and indirect societal costs are included.
Gary also touches on the scale of the issue during our conversation.
This correction reflects the true urgency of early detection, prevention, and better skeletal-health strategies.
