Welcome to the Huberman Lab podcast, where we discuss science and science-based tools for everyday life.
欢迎来到休伯曼实验室播客,我们在这里讨论科学和基于科学的日常生活工具。
I'm Andrew Huberman, and I'm a professor of neurobiology and ophthalmology at Stanford School of Medicine.
我是安德鲁·胡伯曼,斯坦福大学医学院神经生物学和眼科教授。
My guest today is Coleman Ruiz.
今天我的客人是科尔曼·鲁伊斯。
Coleman Ruiz is a former Tier 1 Navy SEAL Special Operator.
科尔曼·鲁伊斯 (Coleman Ruiz) 是一名前一级海军海豹突击队特种作战人员。
I think it's fair to assume that most of you have never heard of Coleman Ruiz before.
我认为可以公平地假设你们大多数人以前从未听说过科尔曼·鲁伊斯。
And in fact, it was part of his former life job description to be largely covert, such that only his family and friends really knew what he did for a living.
事实上,他以前的工作描述的一部分在很大程度上是秘密的,因此只有他的家人和朋友真正知道他是做什么的。
He is, however, now living as a civilian.
然而,他现在过着平民的生活。
And the reason I invited Coleman on this podcast was essentially to tell us his life story, which of course includes his time in the SEAL teams.
我邀请科尔曼参加这个播客的原因本质上是为了告诉我们他的人生故事,其中当然包括他在海豹突击队的时光。
But includes so much more that I'm certain is of value to everyone.
但其中包含了更多内容,我确信对每个人都有价值。
Today, Coleman shares with you his remarkable journey from childhood through his teenage years into the military and some of the things that happened during his time in the military, which then informed his post-military civilian life and what it is to be a father, a husband, and somebody who has experienced tremendous loss at various stages of his life, as well as tremendous triumph.
今天,科尔曼与大家分享他从童年到青少年时期进入军队的非凡旅程,以及他在军队期间发生的一些事情,这些事情后来告诉了他退伍后的平民生活,以及作为一个父亲、一个丈夫以及一个在人生各个阶段经历了巨大损失和巨大胜利的人意味着什么。
Indeed, if ever there was a life that could be framed within the context of the so-called hero's journey, it is the life of Coleman Ruiz.
事实上,如果有一种人生可以被纳入所谓英雄之旅的背景的话,那就是科尔曼·鲁伊斯的人生。
Coleman Ruiz's life is one that embodies focus and pursuit, family and friends and love, all the things that we think of in terms of having a rich life, but also one that includes many unforeseen tragedies, many unforeseen challenges, both internal and external.
科尔曼·鲁伊斯的一生体现了专注和追求、家人和朋友和爱,所有我们认为拥有丰富生活的东西,但也包括许多不可预见的悲剧,许多不可预见的内部和外部的挑战。
Coleman also shares with a rare and extraordinary degree of vulnerability.
科尔曼也有着罕见且非同寻常的脆弱性。
The extent to which challenges in life, both external and internal, have helped shape him as a human being.
生活中的挑战,无论是外部的还是内部的,在多大程度上帮助塑造了他作为一个人。
What follows is a discussion that everyone, male, female, young or old, and regardless of position in life, is sure to derive tremendous benefit from.
接下来的讨论,每个人,无论男性、女性、年轻或年长,无论生活的地位如何,都一定会从中受益匪浅。
Before we begin, I'd like to emphasize that this podcast is separate from my teaching and research roles at Stanford.
在开始之前,我想强调一下,这个播客与我在斯坦福大学的教学和研究角色是分开的。
It is, however, part of my desire and effort to bring zero cost to consumer information about science and science-related tools to the general public.
然而,我的愿望和努力的一部分是向公众提供有关科学和科学相关工具的零成本消费者信息。
In keeping with that theme, I'd like to thank the sponsors of today's podcast.
为了与这个主题保持一致,我要感谢今天播客的赞助商。
Our first sponsor is BetterHelp.
我们的第一个赞助商是 BetterHelp。
Betterhelp offers professional therapy with a licensed therapist carried out entirely online.
Betterhelp 提供由持照治疗师完全在线进行的专业治疗。
I've been doing therapy for over 30 years.
我从事治疗已有 30 多年了。
Initially, I started therapy because, well, I was required to in order to stay in school, but eventually I just decided to keep doing it because I found it to be very beneficial.
最初,我开始接受治疗,因为我需要这样做才能留在学校,但最终我决定继续这样做,因为我发现它非常有益。
There are essentially three things that great therapy provides.
伟大的治疗本质上可以提供三件事。
First of all, it provides a rapport with somebody that you can trust and talk about all issues with.
首先,它可以与您可以信任的人建立融洽的关系,并可以与之讨论所有问题。
Second of all, they can provide support.
其次,他们可以提供支持。
In the form of emotional support or directed guidance.
以情感支持或定向指导的形式。
And third, expert therapy can provide useful insights that you wouldn't have otherwise had access to.
第三,专家治疗可以提供您原本无法获得的有用见解。
In fact, I consider doing regular therapy as important as working out one's body in the gym or through cardiovascular exercise.
事实上,我认为定期治疗与在健身房锻炼身体或通过心血管锻炼一样重要。
And with BetterHelp, scheduling and doing therapy becomes extremely convenient.
有了 BetterHelp,安排和进行治疗变得极其方便。
They can match you to a therapist that can provide those three things, excellent rapport, support, and insight, and they can do so on a schedule that matches yours.
他们可以为您匹配一位能够提供这三样东西的治疗师,即良好的融洽关系、支持和洞察力,并且他们可以按照与您相匹配的时间表来进行。

Today's episode is also brought to us by Maui Nui Venison.
今天的节目也是由 Maui Nui Venison 为我们带来的。
Maui Nui Venison is the most nutrient-dense and delicious red meat available.
毛伊努伊鹿肉是营养最丰富、最美味的红肉。
I've spoken before on this podcast and with several expert guests on this podcast about the fact that most of us should be seeking to get about one gram of quality protein per pound of body weight every day.
我之前在这个播客上和这个播客上的几位专家嘉宾谈到过这样一个事实:我们大多数人应该寻求每天每磅体重获取大约一克优质蛋白质。
Not only does that protein provide critical building blocks for things like muscle repair and synthesis, but also for overall metabolism and health.
这种蛋白质不仅为肌肉修复和合成等提供了关键的组成部分,而且还为整体新陈代谢和健康提供了关键的组成部分。
Eating enough quality protein each day is also a terrific way to stave off hunger.
每天吃足够的优质蛋白质也是消除饥饿的好方法。
One of the key things, however, is to make sure that you're getting enough quality protein without ingesting excess calories.
然而,关键的事情之一是确保您获得足够的优质蛋白质而不摄入过多的热量。
Maui Nui venison has an extremely high quality protein per calorie ratio, such that getting one gram of protein per pound of body weight is both easy and doesn't cause you to ingest an excess of calories.
毛伊努伊鹿肉的每卡路里蛋白质含量非常高,因此每磅体重获取一克蛋白质既容易又不会导致您摄入过量的卡路里。
Also, Maui Nui venison is absolutely delicious.
另外,毛伊努伊鹿肉绝对美味。
They have venison steaks, they have ground venison, and they have venison bone broth.
他们有鹿肉排、鹿肉末和鹿骨汤。
I personally like all of those.
我个人喜欢所有这些。
In fact, I probably eat a Maui Nui venison burger pretty much every day.
事实上,我可能几乎每天都会吃毛伊努伊鹿肉汉堡。
And occasionally, I'll swap that for a Maui Nui steak.
有时,我会把它换成毛伊努伊牛排。
And if you're really on the go, they have Maui Nui venison jerky, which has 10 grams of protein per stick at just 55 calories.
如果您真的很忙,他们还有毛伊努伊鹿肉干,每棒含有 10 克蛋白质,热量仅为 55 卡路里。

Today's episode is also brought to us by Eight Sleep.
今天的节目也是八觉给我们带来的。
Eight Sleep makes smart mattress covers with cooling, heating, and sleep tracking capacity.
August Sleep 生产具有冷却、加热和睡眠跟踪功能的智能床垫套。
Now, I've spoken many times before in this podcast about the critical need to get sleep, both enough sleep and enough quality sleep.
现在,我之前在这个播客中已经多次谈到睡眠的迫切需要,包括充足的睡眠和足够的高质量睡眠。
When we do that, everything, our mental health, our physical health, performance in any sports or school, et cetera, all get better.
当我们这样做时,一切,我们的心理健康,我们的身体健康,在任何运动或学校的表现等等,都会变得更好。
And when we're not sleeping well or enough, all those things suffer.
当我们睡眠不好或睡眠不足时,所有这些都会受到影响。
One of the key things to getting a great night's sleep is that your body temperature actually has to drop by about one to three degrees in order to fall and stay deeply asleep.
获得良好睡眠的关键之一是,您的体温实际上必须下降约一到三度才能入睡并保持深度睡眠。
And in order to wake up feeling refreshed, your body temperature actually has to increase by about one to three degrees.
为了醒来时感觉神清气爽,您的体温实际上必须升高约一到三度。
One of the best ways to ensure that happens is to control the temperature of your sleeping environment.
确保这种情况发生的最佳方法之一是控制睡眠环境的温度。
And with Eight Sleep, it makes it very easy to do that.
而有了八睡眠,就可以很容易地做到这一点。
You program in the temperature that you want at the beginning, middle, and end of the night.
您可以在夜间开始、中间和结束时设定所需的温度。
You can even divide the temperature for two different people, if you have two different people sleeping in the bed, and it tracks your sleep.
如果您有两个不同的人睡在床上,您甚至可以划分两个不同人的温度,并且它会跟踪您的睡眠。
It tells you how much slow wave sleep and rapid eye movement sleep you're getting.
它会告诉您您正在获得多少慢波睡眠和快动眼睡眠。
It really helps you dial in the correct parameters to get the best possible night's sleep for you.
它确实可以帮助您输入正确的参数,以获得最佳的夜间睡眠。
I've been sleeping on an Eight Sleep mattress cover for well over three years now.
我已经睡在八睡床罩上三年多了。
And it has completely transformed my sleep for the better.
它彻底改变了我的睡眠质量。

Okay, I'll bring us up to seventh grade because I would say that was probably the first big inflection point in my life.
好吧,我会把我们带到七年级,因为我想说那可能是我人生中的第一个重大转折点。

But my initial memories when I started thinking about this kind of thing, and you know, as you and I have discussed, getting professional help, and you start to learn a little bit more about your childhood.
但我最初的记忆是,当我开始思考这类事情时,你知道,正如你和我所讨论的,获得专业帮助,你开始更多地了解你的童年。
But I remember it being very pleasant.
但我记得那是非常愉快的。
You've told me about your background in skateboarding and stuff.

Which that spot is now vacated because the school, I went back after Hurricane Katrina, the whole school had to be moved.
现在那个位置已经空出来了,因为学校,我在卡特里娜飓风之后回去了,整个学校都必须搬迁。
And I went there in seventh grade.
我七年级的时候就去了那里。
And it was a hellacious start.
这是一个糟糕的开始。

我能够激活它,我觉得我仍然可以,而且我在体育运动中当然能够激活它,这就是为什么七年级的那一年真的很关键。
But even now, it's funny, it's even funny you ask about the wildness because Let me put it in movie terms.
但即使是现在,这很有趣,甚至很有趣的是你问起荒野,因为让我用电影术语来表达。
Like, one of my favorite movie scenes of all time is in the movie The Town.
就像,我一直以来最喜欢的电影场景之一是在电影《小镇》中。
When Ben Affleck walks in the room, Jeremy Renner is the, you know, his partner, essentially.

It's one of the things that was so frustrating about the military.
这是军队中最令人沮丧的事情之一。
The rules are in place for a reason.
规则的制定是有原因的。
They're written in blood.
它们是用血写成的。
I get all that.
我明白了。
But we're so constrained sometimes.
但有时我们会受到很大的限制。
I think that was just all coming into fruition that seventh grade year.
我认为这一切在七年级那年才得以实现。
And I enjoyed going wild like it was just fun and frankly we weren't These fist fights and this trouble wasn't Like going to get some kid.
我喜欢疯狂,就像这很有趣,坦率地说,我们不是这些拳头打斗,这种麻烦也不像去抓一些孩子。
Those other kids wanted the wildness too, you know, and so...
你知道,其他孩子也想要狂野,所以......
But the school didn't want that.
但学校不希望这样。
And then I went out for wrestling that year and I could put it all into the wrestling room And it was awesome.
然后那年我出去摔跤,我可以把所有的东西都放进摔跤室,这太棒了。
Before we talk about wrestling and why it was so meaningful as a channel for you, a little bit of neurobiology, or else I wouldn't be Andrew Huberman.
在我们谈论摔跤以及为什么它作为一个频道对你来说如此有意义之前,先了解一点神经生物学,否则我就不会成为安德鲁·胡伯曼了。
There's a really interesting phenomenon that one observes in both animals and humans.
人们在动物和人类身上都观察到了一种非常有趣的现象。
Which is that somewhere around adolescence when the hormone surge begins.
这是在青春期左右荷尔蒙开始激增的时候。
But even before that, there's a phenomenon called dispersal.
但甚至在此之前,存在一种称为分散的现象。
It's very different than fighting per se or sexual activity per se.
这与打架本身或性活动本身有很大不同。
It's a literal dispersal from one's home environment or an animal's nest in which animals...
这是从字面上的分散,从一个人的家庭环境或动物的巢穴中,动物......
And humans, and we're animals after all.
还有人类,我们毕竟是动物。
Start forging new environments in a very, as you point out, chaotic way.
正如您所指出的,开始以一种非常混乱的方式打造新环境。
It's not organized.
它没有组织。
It's a little nuts.
有点疯狂。
And biologists and neurobiologists in particular have observed changes in neural circuitry that drive this.
生物学家和神经生物学家尤其观察到驱动这一现象的神经回路的变化。
So some of it's hormonal, but a lot of it is the brain taking all this input that one has been exposed to, sun, earth, food, others, social interactions.
所以其中一些是荷尔蒙的,但很多是大脑接受了一个人所接触到的所有这些输入,阳光、地球、食物、其他、社交互动。
And starting to essentially throw the different paints, the different colors of paint together and just trying things.
然后开始将不同的油漆、不同颜色的油漆放在一起,然后进行尝试。
Some kids are more prone to this than others.
有些孩子比其他孩子更容易出现这种情况。
It certainly has a hormonal component.
它确实含有荷尔蒙成分。
Boys and girls tend to do this differently, but they both do it.
男孩和女孩在这方面的做法有所不同,但他们都会这样做。
And psychologists and neurobiologists see this as a fundamental shift in our underlying circuitry.
心理学家和神经生物学家认为这是我们底层电路的根本性转变。
So just a little bit of food for thought to put what you just described in context.
因此,只需将您刚才描述的内容放在上下文中,就可以引人深思。
With that said, tell us about wrestling.
说到这里,给我们讲讲摔跤吧。
I mean, Andrew, in many ways, like I said, that was the first inflection point.
我的意思是,安德鲁,从很多方面来说,就像我说的,这是第一个拐点。
It was like.
就像。
Immediate, I mean, immediate uptake.
立即,我的意思是,立即采用。
Within a week, I knew this was my thing.
一周之内,我知道这是我的事。
Maybe the first practice.
也许是第一次练习。
What do you think it was?
你认为那是什么?
So when I was younger, my aunt and uncle...
所以当我还小的时候,我的叔叔阿姨...
When I was like seven years old, they started taking me to road races.
当我七岁的时候,他们开始带我参加公路比赛。
And I'm sure just running races, one mile and 5K races when I was a really small kid.
我确信当我还是个小孩子的时候,我就参加过跑步、一英里和 5 千米比赛。
For you to run.
为你奔跑。
Mm-hmm, to run with them.
嗯嗯,和他们一起跑。
They were into the road racing thing back in the day when it was brand new, you know, the 80s.
他们早在 80 年代公路赛车刚刚兴起的时候就开始热衷于公路赛车了。
I'm 48, so.
我48岁了,所以。
I was born in 75, so I was seven, you know, eight years old at the time.
我出生于 75 年,所以当时我七岁,八岁。
And I was into, like, obviously, can I win this race?
我很想知道,我能赢得这场比赛吗?
I just, the pain.
我只是,痛苦。
Of the effort.
的努力。
Was so comfortable.
真是太舒服了。
And then...
然后...
It's kind of silly, but like I won the PT competition at like the Boy Scouts thing in Audubon Park.
这有点傻,但就像我在奥杜邦公园的童子军比赛中赢得了 PT 比赛一样。
Pt is physical.
Pt是物理的。
Yeah.
是的。
Physical training.
体育。
Physical training.
体育。
And so I won like the whatever when I was young and built Boy Scouts or something.
所以当我年轻的时候,我会喜欢无论什么,建立童子军之类的东西。
And then it just snowballed.
然后事情就像滚雪球一样越滚越大。
Then I was just like the physical activity.
然后我就喜欢体育活动了。
Still today is, I mean, if someone said, what are you really in love with?
我的意思是,今天仍然是,如果有人问,你真正爱什么?
It's that.
就是这样。
And so when I walked into the wrestling room It was so extreme compared to anything else I had ever done.
因此,当我走进摔跤室时,与我做过的任何其他事情相比,这是如此极端。
Football, baseball, whatever.
足球、棒球什么的。
I never really liked any of those sports.
我从来都不喜欢这些运动。
I played them all.
我把它们都玩了。
But I didn't like them.
但我不喜欢它们。
And always my dad wrestled in high school and college and We were, you know, always rough and tumble in that regard.
我父亲在高中和大学时总是摔跤,你知道,我们在这方面总是很粗暴和跌倒。
I even have a couple of buddies in the teams, you know, who obviously were college wrestlers.
你知道,我什至在队里有几个朋友,他们显然是大学摔跤手。
There's a lot of wrestlers in the teams.
队里有很多摔跤手。
People would always joke about how we're so handsy.
人们总是开玩笑说我们多么方便。
You know, our hands are always on each other and...
你知道,我们的手总是放在彼此身上......
That was just a thing for us.
这对我们来说只是一件事。
Like, I loved the close contact.
就像,我喜欢亲密接触。
I loved the fight of it.
我喜欢它的战斗。
What I really love about combat sports, because I boxed in high school between wrestling seasons.
我真正喜欢的是格斗运动,因为我在高中的摔跤季节期间打过拳击。
Was the respect.
是尊重。
Tell me more about that.
告诉我更多相关信息。
You just don't have, there are some, of course, like you can see guys hyping it up and doing their thing in UFC these days, and that's totally fine.
你只是没有,当然有一些,就像你现在可以看到人们在 UFC 中大肆宣传并做他们的事情,这完全没问题。
But for the most part, if you have fighters of any type, like, in a setting when they don't have to do, you know, the stuff for TV and whatnot.
但在大多数情况下,如果你有任何类型的战士,比如,在他们不必做电视之类的事情的环境中。
They respect each other because and they respect the effort and Because you know what it takes.
他们互相尊重,因为他们尊重对方的努力,因为你知道这需要什么。
And you know how hard it is to face another man in the middle of a mat with no equipment.
你知道,在没有任何装备的情况下,在垫子中间面对另一个人是多么困难。
And nowhere to run and no timeouts and no one to tap in, that's extreme, you know?
无处可跑,没有暂停,也没有人可以利用,这太极端了,你知道吗?
And it may not seem like high school wrestling is extreme, but...
高中摔跤似乎并不极端,但是......
As you just mentioned something about, you know, development, when you're 14 and you're facing another, like, that's the first time.
正如你刚才提到的,你知道,发展,当你 14 岁的时候,你面临着另一个,就像,那是第一次。
Is someone trying to take your life?

By now, most of you have heard me tell my story about how I've been taking AG1 once or twice a day every day since 2012.
到目前为止,你们中的大多数人都已经听过我讲述自 2012 年以来我如何每天服用一到两次 AG1 的故事。
And indeed, that's true.
确实如此。
I started taking AG1 and I still take AG1 once or twice a day because it gives me vitamins and minerals that I might not be getting enough of from whole foods that I eat, as well as adaptogens and micronutrients.
我开始服用 AG1,现在仍然每天服用一到两次,因为它为我提供了我可能无法从我吃的天然食物中获取的维生素和矿物质,以及适应原和微量营养素。
Those adaptogens and micronutrients are really critical because even though I strive to eat most of my foods from unprocessed or minimally processed whole foods, It's often hard to do so, especially when I'm traveling and especially when I'm busy.
这些适应原和微量营养素非常重要,因为尽管我努力吃未经加工或最低限度加工的天然食品中的大部分食物,但通常很难做到这一点,特别是当我在旅行时,尤其是当我很忙时。
So by drinking a packet of AG1 in the morning, and oftentimes also again in the afternoon or evening, I'm ensuring that I'm getting everything I need.
因此,通过早上喝一包 AG1,并且经常在下午或晚上再喝一次,我可以确保获得我需要的一切。
I'm covering all of my foundational nutritional needs.
我满足了我所有的基本营养需求。
And I, like so many other people that take AG1 regularly, just report feeling better.
我和许多其他定期服用 AG1 的人一样,只是报告感觉好多了。
And that shouldn't be surprising because it supports gut health.
这并不奇怪,因为它支持肠道健康。
And of course, gut health supports.
当然,肠道健康也有支持。
Immune system health and brain health, and it's supporting a ton of different cellular and organ processes that all interact with one another.
免疫系统健康和大脑健康,它支持大量相互相互作用的不同细胞和器官过程。
So while certain supplements are really directed towards one specific outcome, like sleeping better or being more alert, AG1 really is foundational nutritional support.
因此,虽然某些补充剂确实针对一种特定的结果,例如睡得更好或更加警觉,但 AG1 确实是基础营养支持。
It's really designed to support all of the systems of your brain and body that relate to mental health and physical health.
它的真正目的是支持与心理健康和身体健康相关的大脑和身体的所有系统。
If you'd like to try AG1, you can go to drinkag1.com slash Huberman to claim a special offer.
如果您想尝试 AG1,您可以访问 Drinkag1.comlash Huberman 以获得特别优惠。
They'll give you five free travel packs with your order, plus a year's supply of vitamin D3K2.

And I, and I subscribe to that and his life was a bit of a random walk, but that we're guided by some central beam of, of uniqueness.
我和我都同意这一点,他的生活有点随意,但我们受到一些独特性的中心光束的引导。

You know, like some people just seem to have that extra gear, and I don't want to take anything away from Allie or anyone else's incredible work ethic that goes with what people perceive as an extra gear.
你知道,就像有些人似乎只是拥有额外的装备一样,我不想从艾莉或其他任何人令人难以置信的职业道德中夺走任何东西,这种职业道德与人们认为的额外装备相一致。

事实上,有很多例外,或者你必须是一名天生的运动员,或者天生具有某种遗传天赋或一些额外的装备,才能取得成功。
But I think so much of success is the thing that you seem to operationalize really quickly, which is.

Really focus on that 24-hour horizon and where one has seen failure to just keep going.

In a direction that is adaptive and functional.
朝着适应性和功能性的方向发展。
Because imagine had you not found wrestling and you had gotten into some group where the metrics of success were around dealing weed or doing something which back then was highly illegal, now is varying levels of legality, but where the points came back for effort in domains of life that could take you down into the gutter.
因为想象一下,如果你没有发现摔跤,而你加入了某个团体,其中成功的衡量标准是交易大麻或做一些在当时是高度非法的事情,现在是不同程度的合法性,但在生活领域的努力可能会把你带入阴沟。
And you see this.
你看到了这一点。
So I'm convinced that- The work ethic is the fundamental piece, but there has to be that rudder.

We were on campus, on the yard.

And it was easily waist-deep snow, and we were doing two-a-day practices.

And I was just generally miserable.
我一般都很痛苦。
If it was easy to leave, I probably would have.
如果离开很容易的话,我可能会离开。
And then I met Bridget in February and I was like, fuck it, I'll stay.
然后我在二月份遇到了布里奇特,我当时想,去他的,我会留下来。
She's better than this place.
她比这个地方更好。
Having followed my high school girlfriend off to college and not gone to college when I got there, I just lived in the parking lot outside her dorm where I can relate.
我跟随我的高中女友上大学,但到了那里后并没有上大学,我只是住在她宿舍外的停车场,在那里我可以产生共鸣。
You know, there's a I probably wouldn't be sitting here today were it not for.
你知道,如果不是因为,我今天可能不会坐在这里。
I'd like to take a quick break and acknowledge one of our sponsors, Plunge.
我想稍微休息一下并感谢我们的赞助商之一 Plunge。
Plunge makes what I believe is the best self-cooling cold water plunge.
我认为 Plunge 是最好的自冷冷水跳水器。
Over the last decade, and especially in the last five years, there's been an increasing amount of excitement about cold water plunging for sake of mental health, physical health, and performance.
在过去的十年里,尤其是在过去的五年里,人们越来越热衷于为了心理健康、身体健康和表现而进行冷水潜水。
And that's in large part because one of the most robust effects of cold water exposure are big increases in adrenaline, also called epinephrine, and dopamine.
这在很大程度上是因为接触冷水最强烈的影响之一是肾上腺素(也称为肾上腺素)和多巴胺的大量增加。
So while some people do cold water plunging in pursuit of increasing metabolism or reducing inflammation, It's really those big increases in adrenaline and dopamine that lead to those long-lasting increases in alertness and feelings of well-being, not just in the seconds or minutes after the cold plunge, but indeed for several hours afterwards.
因此,虽然有些人为了提高新陈代谢或减少炎症而进行冷水浴,但实际上,肾上腺素和多巴胺的大量增加导致了警觉性和幸福感的持久增加,不仅是在冷水浴后的几秒钟或几分钟内,而且确实是在冷水浴后的几个小时内。
I've been using a plunge for several years now, typically first thing in the morning or after cardiovascular training.
我已经使用跳水好几年了,通常是在早上或心血管训练后做的第一件事。
I do agree that doing cold water plunging after a workout designed to generate hypertrophy or strength gains is not a good idea, but doing cold plunging at the other times of day can be tremendously beneficial.
我确实同意,在旨在产生肌肉肥大或力量增益的锻炼之后进行冷水潜水并不是一个好主意,但在一天中的其他时间进行冷水潜水可能会非常有益。
I use the version of Plunge called the All-In Ice Bath, and Plunge now also makes saunas that get up to 230 degrees Fahrenheit.
我使用称为 All-In Ice Bath 的 Plunge 版本,Plunge 现在还可以制作温度高达 230 华氏度的桑拿房。
I love how the Plunge Ice Bath and sauna can both be controlled from an app on my phone so that if I'm headed home, I can turn on the sauna and it'll be hot when I arrive.
我喜欢 Plunge Ice Bath 和桑拿房都可以通过手机上的应用程序进行控制,这样,如果我回家,我可以打开桑拿房,当我到达时,桑拿房就会很热。
So if you would like to try a Plunge Ice Bath or sauna, you can go to plunge.com slash Huberman to get $150 off either product.
因此,如果您想尝试 Plunge Ice Bath 或桑拿,您可以访问plunge.comlash Huberman,任一产品均可享受 150 美元优惠。
Again, that's plunge.com slash Huberman.
再说一次,这是plum.com 斜线Huberman。

在大三和大四之间,你去科罗纳多和芽教练那里,他们仍然有它。

它被称为不同的东西。
Um...
嗯...
You spend two weeks at the BUDS compound, and they run you through a mini program.
你在 BUDS 大院待了两周,他们会引导你完成一个小程序。
Sorry, BUDS, some folks listening to this won't know the acronym.
抱歉,老兄,有些听这个的人不知道缩写词。
The acronym is Basic Underwater Demolition SEAL School.
缩写是基本水下拆除海豹突击队学校。
That's our school in Coronado.
那是我们在科罗纳多的学校。
It's a screening process for who gets in, who doesn't.
这是一个筛选过程,筛选谁可以进入,谁不能进入。
Yeah, and when you're at the Naval Academy, it's obviously different than guys coming into the enlisted ranks.
是的,当你在海军学院时,这与入伍的人明显不同。

然后我就猜测从 150 到 80。
Maybe 80 guys go.
也许有80个人去。
To the summer program in Coronado when you're still, you know, a midshipman at the Naval Academy.
当你还是海军学院的见习官时,就去科罗纳多参加暑期课程。
I've never, maybe people have quit minibuds, I don't know.
我从来没有,也许人们已经放弃了迷你耳机,我不知道。
But I don't know if I really saw anybody quit the two weeks we were out in Coronado.
但我不知道我们在科罗纳多的两周里是否真的看到有人退出。
And then you get, you know, greeted on your performance and stuff.
然后,你知道,你的表现和其他东西都会受到欢迎。
And then you come back for senior year and you go through a series of interviews with a bunch of SEALs who come out and do interviews and you don't really know what you're doing.
然后你回到高年级,你经历了一系列与一群海豹突击队队员的面试,他们出来接受采访,但你并不真正知道自己在做什么。
And then they select down, I don't want to again overdo it, but it's probably seven, I don't know, maybe 50 or 60 qualified guys, they select you down to 16.
然后他们选择下来,我不想再次做过头,但可能是七个,我不知道,也许是 50 或 60 名合格的人,他们选择你到 16。
And so to answer your question about when I got interested was when I knew I didn't want to go in the Marine Corps, I never, ever had the Top Gun fever thing.
所以回答你关于我什么时候感兴趣的问题是当我知道我不想加入海军陆战队时,我从来没有热衷于《壮志凌云》。
I wasn't interested in flying.
我对飞行不感兴趣。
I just wasn't interested in anything else but something super physical.
我只是对其他任何事情都不感兴趣,除了一些超级身体的东西。
And that seemed like the best, the next best thing.
这似乎是最好的、仅次于最好的事情。
And because I grew up in New Orleans and spent a lot of time in the water, that wasn't intimidating.
因为我在新奥尔良长大并在水中度过了很多时间,所以这并不令人生畏。
That screens a lot of people out, obviously.
显然,这将很多人排除在外。
Yeah, and got selected in the group of 16.
是的,并且入选了16人小组。
Was at Bud's after graduation, you know, a couple months after graduation.
毕业后在巴德那里,你知道,毕业几个月后。
There's been a lot put...
已经放了很多了...
Out into the world around buds you know people have seen the log carrying the boat carrying and the screaming and the set said screaming the the instructors and the and the running and the you know, clasped arms in the water and hell week, no sleep, and on and on.
你知道,在花蕾周围的世界里,人们看到了运着木头的船、尖叫着、布景说尖叫着的教练、奔跑着的、你知道的、在水中紧握双臂、地狱般的一周、没有睡觉,等等。
It's obviously tough.
显然这很难。
It culls 85% of the people that go out there thinking that they are the absolute last person who would ever quit, ring the bell, so to speak.
它淘汰了 85% 的人,他们认为自己是绝对不会放弃的人,可以这么说。
You obviously got through.
显然你已经通过了。
A while back, you mentioned to me three things that you think predict whether or not somebody's going to get through buds.
不久前,您向我提到了三件事,您认为这三件事可以预测某人是否会度过花蕾。
And before you tell us what these are, I just will just tell people that, yes, of course, you made it through buds successfully and went into the teams.
在你告诉我们这些是什么之前,我只想告诉人们,是的,当然,你成功地通过了花蕾并进入了团队。
Very successful career in the teams, but you've also been a buds instructor.
在团队中你的职业生涯非常成功,但你也曾担任过芽教练。
So you've been on the, on the, On the other side of the equation too, what are those three things?
所以你也一直在等式的另一边,这三件事是什么?
Yeah, this was, as you know, this was very anecdotal, but it lined up.
是的,正如你所知,这是非常轶事,但它是一致的。
When I was back there in 05 as an instructor, I feel like we're not scientists, right?
当我05年回到那里当讲师时,我感觉我们不是科学家,对吗?
But I feel like we tried.
但我觉得我们已经尽力了。
Every correlating data pull that we could pull from pull-ups to run times to you name it, to regions of the country that people grow up near water.
我们可以提取的每一个相关数据,从引体向上到跑步时间(你能想到的),到人们在水边长大的国家地区。
At least back then, nothing correlated.
至少在当时,没有任何关联。
And so I was a first phase OIC, officer in charge.
所以我是第一阶段伊斯兰会议组织的负责人。
And so our team in first phase, we can talk about what that is in detail if you want to, but first phase is in charge of hell week, you know, hell weeks in the first two months of training.
所以我们的团队在第一阶段,如果你愿意的话,我们可以详细讨论这是什么,但第一阶段负责地狱周,你知道,训练前两个月的地狱周。
And a couple of the guys said, all this bullshit about this can get you through, that can get you through.
有几个人说,所有这些关于这件事的废话都可以让你度过难关,可以让你度过难关。
I bet.
我敢打赌。
That every single person we talk to out here on the grinder has one of these three things.
我们在研磨机上交谈过的每个人都拥有这三件事之一。
They were a varsity athlete in high school or college, their parents are divorced, or they got suspended from school.
他们是高中或大学的校队运动员,父母离婚,或者被学校停学。
I guarantee it.
我保证。
And we would walk around the grinder and ask.
我们会绕着研磨机走一圈并询问。
And I mean...
我的意思是...
You know, this isn't going to pass an independent review board, but it's got to be 90 to 95%.
你知道,这不会通过独立审查委员会,但必须达到 90% 到 95%。
So that's incredible because, you know, so much has been made of Bud's and Hell Week.
所以这是令人难以置信的,因为,你知道,巴德和地狱周已经做了很多事情。
And just to just fill in a few of the blanks for those that aren't familiar, Hell Week is what it's five nights, no sleep.
对于那些不熟悉的人来说,只是为了填补一些空白,地狱周就是五个晚上,不睡觉。
You get an hour or a couple minutes on one day, but you're basically in constant movement for about a week.
一天你可以活动一小时或几分钟,但基本上一周左右你都在持续运动。
You are.
你是。
And that's when most people...
而这个时候,大多数人...
Voluntarily ring the bell.
主动按响门铃。
And most of them do it before Wednesday.
他们中的大多数人在周三之前就这样做了。
And I know it's got chaotic components, guns going off, blasts.
我知道它有混乱的成分,枪响,爆炸。
It's got hard work, boring components, people trying to make it through who have no sense of how long the run is going to last or what's going to happen.
它有艰苦的工作、无聊的部分,人们试图通过但不知道跑步会持续多久或会发生什么。
And you hear all this stuff like, okay, you just don't quit or you just go meal to meal.
你会听到这样的话,好吧,你只是不放弃,或者你只是一顿一顿地吃。
But what you just described is really interesting.
但你刚才所描述的确实很有趣。
Let's break those three things down because playing a varsity sport, has certain elements.
让我们把这三件事分解一下,因为参加大学运动有某些要素。
Having divorced parents has certain elements, and getting suspended in school has certain elements.
父母离婚有一定的因素,停学也有一定的因素。
Let's start with...
让我们从...开始
Divorced parents first.
先是父母离婚。
Because varsity sport, I think we can probably just quickly say, okay, there's structure.
因为校队运动,我想我们可以很快说,好吧,有结构。
You have to listen to somebody.
你必须听某人的。
You have to be able to push yourself.
你必须能够推动自己。
You have to have some level of physical competence.
你必须有一定程度的身体能力。
Coachable.
可教练。
Coachable, mental competence, work with others.
善于指导,心理能力强,与他人合作。
So there's something there, right?
所以那里有东西,对吗?
And you presumably have to go through junior varsity to get there.
你可能必须通过初级校队才能到达那里。
So there's some oomph and required in any event.
所以无论如何,都有一些魅力和必要。
But the divorced parents piece was surprising to me, still is.
但离婚父母的文章让我感到惊讶,现在仍然如此。
What?
什么?
You have divorced parents.
你有离异的父母。
So do I.
我也一样。
Divorces occur for any number of different reasons.
离婚有多种不同的原因。
What in the world do you think is the...
你认为世界上到底有什么...
The consequence of or that of a divorced household that would predict so well, at least in this back of the envelope measurement that you made, but as an instructor that people would get through this excruciatingly difficult period of time.
离婚家庭的后果可以很好地预测,至少在你所做的粗略测量中,但作为一名教师,人们将度过这段极其困难的时期。
For me, it was one thing specifically.
对我来说,这是一件事。
I felt like I was alone.
我感觉我很孤独。
If I didn't have the team.
如果我没有团队的话。
So I don't know what it would be for other people, but I was like, if I don't have this team.
所以我不知道对其他人来说会怎样,但我想,如果我没有这个团队。
Then what team do I have?
那我有什么队伍呢?
So, I'm not leaving.
所以,我不会离开。
You could crank up the cold and misery as high as you fucking want.
你可以随心所欲地把寒冷和痛苦调高。
But I'm not leaving.
但我不会离开。
Yeah, that hits deep.
是的,这触动很深。
I didn't do buds.
我没有做芽。
I didn't even know what the SEAL teams were, but I certainly know the feeling of looking outside of the household for a sense of family and belonging and the feeling that like I'd much rather, like almost from a place of joy, like I'd much rather die for these people, hopefully not with these people, but much rather die trying to save others and to do well in that.
我什至不知道海豹突击队是什么,但我当然知道在家庭之外寻找家庭感和归属感的感觉,以及那种感觉,就像我更愿意,几乎从一个快乐的地方,就像我更愿意为这些人而死,希望不是和这些人一起,但更愿意为拯救他人而死,并在这方面做得很好。
Than to quit.
还不如放弃呢。
Yeah.
是的。
Yeah.
是的。
That's a powerful thing that you just shine light on.
这是一个强大的东西,你只需照亮它即可。
I don't think...
我不认为...
Of the hundreds of interviews with team guys, X team guys, buds, instructors, et cetera, that are out there.
在对团队成员、X 团队成员、伙伴、教练等的数百个采访中,这些都是在那里。
I don't think anyone's ever highlighted that.
我认为没有人强调过这一点。
I don't think I was aware of it then Andrew, but I just, you know, again, it's in, it's in retrospect.
我想我当时并没有意识到这一点,安德鲁,但我只是,你知道,再一次,它是在,它是在回顾中。
Well, the retrospect is in large part what we're here for.
嗯,回顾在很大程度上就是我们来这里的目的。
To go a little deeper on that, I think that A lot of people have challenging homes.
更深入地说,我认为很多人的家都充满挑战。
Their parents aren't necessarily divorced.
他们的父母不一定离婚。
Talking, of course, about...
当然,谈论的是...
Trying to understand the human spirit.
试图了解人类的精神。
Certainly not accomplishments per se, but the human spirit.
当然不是成就本身,而是人类精神。
So I think that a lot of people, especially nowadays, they look to their home life and if, you know, God willing, they had a great home life.
所以我认为很多人,尤其是现在的人,他们都会关注自己的家庭生活,如果上帝愿意的话,他们会有一个美好的家庭生活。
That is the base.
这就是基础。
It's like the touchstone for them that they can return to.
这就像他们可以回归的试金石。
But for a lot of people...
但对于很多人来说...
Even people who go home for the holidays or who touch in with their parents.
即使是那些回家过节或与父母联系的人。
Whether or not they're divorced or not, they don't feel like that family unit is really a solid thing.
无论他们是否离婚,他们都不觉得家庭单位是一个真正稳固的东西。
Maybe they're in a place, I see this a lot, where they're the parent.
也许他们在一个地方,我经常看到这样的情况,他们是父母。
They had to grow up taking care of the parents.
他们必须在父母的照顾下长大。
I see that a lot on both the male side and the female side.
我在男性和女性方面都看到很多这样的情况。
I see that.
我明白了。
So...
所以...
You're saying that...
你是说...
One strong predictor of getting through is a feeling of people want essentially making it there like almost like.
成功通过的一个强有力的预测因素是人们希望基本上能够像几乎一样那样到达那里。
Biological identity to get through.
生物身份要打通。
It was certainly the case for me.
对我来说确实如此。
I mean, when I got, again, I don't really like to overdo these things because it tends to feed the mythos a little.
我的意思是,当我再次意识到时,我真的不喜欢做这些事情,因为这往往会助长一些神话。
But when I got to Bud's, Andrew, like, when I got to the Naval Academy, I had a very strong sense of this is my chance.
但当我进入巴德安德鲁学院时,就像当我进入海军学院时,我有一种非常强烈的感觉,这是我的机会。
And you know, you develop over the years and you spend time thinking about this and having mentors.
你知道,你多年来一直在进步,你花时间思考这个问题并聘请导师。
When I got there.
当我到达那里时。
That was very much my first time of You better bring the nastiest shit on the planet.
那是我第一次看到你最好带来这个星球上最肮脏的狗屎。
Because I'm not leaving here.
因为我不会离开这里。
Like, it's just not, I'm not, I'm just not going, you know?
就像,这不是,我不是,我只是不去,你知道吗?
And there's a Navy bit to it too.
而且也有海军的味道。
Like, I didn't want to do anything else in the Navy.
就像,我不想在海军做任何其他事情。
So back to fear.
所以回到恐惧。
I was afraid I would get stuck.
我担心我会被卡住。
Doing a job I didn't like.
做着一份我不喜欢的工作。
But there's some, people are not wrong, you know, about buds.
但人们对花蕾的看法并没有错。
There's some very difficult days where...
有一些非常困难的日子,...
You do start to wonder, like, is this really worth it?
你确实开始怀疑,这真的值得吗?
And I...
而我...
That I never once I thought about quitting.
我从来没有想过放弃。
It never crossed my mind because I just had these other things that I really had to do for myself and my life or else I felt like I was going to have nothing.
我从来没有想过这个问题,因为我只有一些其他的事情是我必须为自己和我的生活做的,否则我觉得我将一无所有。
And so...
所以...
Again, I don't think operating out of fear is particularly adaptive.
再说一次,我认为出于恐惧而行动并不是特别具有适应性。
But sometimes it, you know, the bit in your teeth is useful.
但有时,你知道,牙齿上的钻头是有用的。
Yeah, certainly in my own life I could say, you know, getting real scared about Being 19 and essentially realizing I'm not good at anything.
是的,当然,在我自己的生活中,我可以说,你知道,我对 19 岁感到非常害怕,并且基本上意识到我不擅长任何事情。
I'm not good at anything.
我什么都不擅长。
And I was terrible at a lot of things.
我在很多事情上都很糟糕。
And some of those things were taking me down a dangerous path that that was the fear.
其中一些事情让我走上了一条危险的道路,那就是恐惧。
I'm grateful for the fear piece.
我很感激恐惧片。
It, it would, it, it scruffed me.
它,它会,它,它把我扭伤了。
And, Let's talk about the suspended in school.
而且,我们来谈谈停学的事情。
Yep.
是的。
First of all, that implies getting caught.
首先,这意味着被抓住。
Yes.
是的。
Not just misbehaving, but getting caught.
不仅行为不当,还被抓。
What do you think that's about?
你认为这是关于什么的?
So we're really talking about a sense of rebellion against authority or the system that one finds themselves in.
所以我们真正谈论的是一种对权威或一个人所处的体系的反抗感。
Which is super important for our line of work.
这对于我们的工作来说非常重要。
Like for me, again, I can only speak for myself.
就像我一样,我只能为自己说话。
For me, it was the wild fuck you factor.
对我来说,这就是你的疯狂他妈的因素。
Like, you have to...
就像,你必须...
There's just a nasty reality of the work we had to do.
我们必须做的工作是一个令人讨厌的现实。
You know, I was in from 98 until 2011.
你知道,我从 98 年一直呆到 2011 年。
In the SEAL teams.
在海豹突击队中。
In the SEAL teams from 98 until 2011.
从98年到2011年在海豹突击队服役。
Everybody knows what was happening between 9-11 and then.
每个人都知道 9 点到 11 点之间发生了什么。
It's not that it didn't stop happening.
这并不是说它没有停止发生。
I know, you know, from my own experience, from 03 through...
我知道,你知道,根据我自己的经验,从 03 年到...
2010 was extremely intense and Obviously, the military has rules and we need rules.
2010 年非常激烈,显然,军队有规则,我们也需要规则。
And you follow the laws of armed conflict and you follow the rules of engagement.
你遵守武装冲突法和交战规则。
There's no question.
毫无疑问。
About that, ever?
关于那件事,曾经吗?
But the shit that happens to you out in the field for real does not follow any pattern.
但在野外真正发生在你身上的事情并不遵循任何模式。
And so...
所以...
If you are a complete, you know, non-suspended from school rule follower, I'm not saying you won't be successful.
如果你是一个完整的、你知道的、没有被停学的校规遵守者,我并不是说你不会成功。
I'm sure plenty of people are.
我相信很多人都是这样的。
But in our line of work, if you ask people, most of them had a weird streak as they were coming up.
但在我们的工作中,如果你问人们,他们中的大多数人在晋升时都有一种奇怪的倾向。
Like they have a little bit of a...
就像他们有一点点...
A side eye when somebody tells them this is how stuff is like, maybe it's like that But you don't know that and Where it really became clear for me, Andrew, was...
当有人告诉他们事情就是这样的,也许就像那样但你不知道这一点时,安德鲁,我真正明白的是……
Look, at every stage in your development, you're still looking for what right looks like.
看,在你发展的每个阶段,你仍然在寻找正确的东西。
And when I was a, I'm now a Naval Academy graduate, not that that means anything special, but I'm smart enough.
当我还是一名海军学院毕业生时,我现在是一名海军学院毕业生,这并不意味着什么特别的,但我足够聪明。
I'm now in my 20s.
我现在20多岁了。
I'm at Bud's and I have this recollection later, like people are always telling stories about the teams.
我在巴德那里,后来我才想起,就像人们总是在讲述关于球队的故事一样。
And when you're a new student at Bud's, you kind of believe everything the instructors tell you because it's pretty impressive shit.
当你是巴德学校的新生时,你会相信老师告诉你的一切,因为那真是令人印象深刻。
And then you find out later when I checked into SEAL Team 3, you actually start to understand the arc of the job.
后来你会发现,当我加入海豹突击队第三队时,你实际上开始了解这份工作的脉络。
It was like all these guys were telling training stories.
就像所有这些人都在讲述训练故事一样。
Those weren't real combat stories.
这些都不是真实的战斗故事。
They never said...
他们从来没有说过...
That that was a story from training.
那是训练中的故事。
And so my point is like...
所以我的观点是......
What you hope guys are getting it now, but what we didn't get a lot of was the real story in a sense, meaning.
你希望大家现在能明白,但我们没有得到很多的是某种意义上的真实故事。
I will say definitively, my first combat deployment was 03 when we invaded Iraq.
我可以肯定地说,我的第一次战斗部署是03年我们入侵伊拉克时。
I was a platoon commander when we invaded Iraq.
我们入侵伊拉克时我是一名排长。
And I remember within a week of being in that situation thinking not one single instructor had the experience to mentor and coach me on this, not one.
我记得在遇到这种情况的一周内,我认为没有一个教练有经验在这方面指导和指导我,没有一个。
And so.
所以。
You have to go back to that wild, suspended...
你必须回到那个狂野、悬浮的状态……
Fuck you factor mindset.
去你妈的因素心态。
Like all your silly rules about how the military works.
就像你们关于军队如何运作的所有愚蠢规则一样。
None of that shit's happening out here.
这里什么狗屎都不会发生。
Like, all this other stuff is happening that doesn't have anything to do with your training manuals.
就像,所有其他正在发生的事情与您的培训手册没有任何关系。
Except for...
除了...
The things you don't violate, which is to your best of your ability, stuff happens, but the rules of engagement and laws of armed conflict, everything else is a toss-up.
你不违反的事情,这是你尽你最大的能力,事情会发生,但交战规则和武装冲突法,其他一切都是难以预测的。
The tactics aren't.
战术则不然。
That's not a toss up, but you know what I mean, like the environment is completely chaotic.
这不是折腾,但你知道我的意思,就像环境完全混乱一样。
It's a new sport.
这是一项新运动。
It's a brand new sport that no one coached you on.
这是一项全新的运动,没有人指导过你。
And it's high risk, high consequence.
而且风险高,后果高。
For you and your teammates, but also for the other side.
为了你和你的队友,也为了对方。
I mean, every...
我的意思是,每...
15 seconds is a new consequential decision.
15秒是一个新的重要决定。
Yeah, because you obviously don't want to kill civilians on the other side either.
是的,因为你显然也不想杀死另一边的平民。
Of course not.
当然不是。
So you obviously get through Bud's.
所以你显然已经通过了巴德的。
You probably weren't surprised given your mindset.
考虑到你的心态,你可能并不感到惊讶。
You probably weren't surprised.
你可能并不感到惊讶。
No, I wasn't surprised.
不,我并不感到惊讶。
At this point, I'm maybe building a little self-confidence and just operate out of fear.
在这一点上,我可能正在建立一点自信,只是出于恐惧而行动。
But happy, presumably.
但大概是高兴吧。
Oh, yeah.
哦,是的。
Yep.
是的。
And...
还有...
What's...
什么是...
I feel obligated to ask.
我觉得有义务问一下。
Well, I'm just curious to ask that you, you know, you've been in a system of military for a long time.
好吧,我只是好奇地想问一下,你知道,你已经在军事系统中呆了很长时间了。
Is there a bigger, pole of patriotism there or that's just, it's there, but I mean, are you thinking about country or are you thinking about team?
是否有更大的爱国主义支柱,或者只是,它就在那里,但我的意思是,你在考虑国家还是在考虑团队?
You think about the day?
你想那一天吗?
Yeah.
是的。
I mean, at this point, you know, I'm fully indoctrinated in a sense, you know, the Naval Academy really does give you a sense of, again, bigness and you meet people from home.
我的意思是,在这一点上,你知道,我在某种意义上完全被灌输了,你知道,海军学院确实再次给你一种伟大的感觉,你会遇到来自家乡的人。
World War II in Vietnam and You know...
第二次世界大战在越南,你知道......
An amazing guy, which we can cover later.
一个了不起的人,我们稍后会介绍。
I wasn't around when he was coming up, but Colonel John Ripley is a guy who won the Navy Cross in Vietnam.
他来的时候我不在场,但约翰·里普利上校在越南赢得了海军十字勋章。
The book, The Bridge at Dong Ha, is about him.
《东河桥》这本书就是关于他的。
He knew my, this is back to my Uncle Jim who introduced, he and my Uncle Jim were buddies.
他认识我,这是回我的吉姆叔叔介绍的,他和我的吉姆叔叔是哥们儿。
And I met him.
我遇见了他。
He's since passed away.
他已经去世了。
I met Colonel Ripley.
我遇见了里普利上校。
When I was a plebe at the Naval Academy, I worked with one of his sons now, friend, teammate, mentor.
当我还是海军学院的一名平民时,我现在和他的一个儿子一起工作,我是朋友、队友、导师。
He was a great guy.
他是一个很棒的人。
Colonel Ripley.
里普利上校。
He's a legend.
他是一个传奇。
Like, this guy's a Navy cross winner, should have won the Congressional Medal of Honor by all accounts.
就像,这家伙是海军十字勋章获得者,从各方面来看都应该赢得国会荣誉勋章。
If you read the book, the Bridget Dong Hai, you are going to have...
如果你读过《布里奇特·东海》这本书,你将会……
No ability to understand why he's not dead.
无法理解他为什么没有死。
And these are the kind of people you meet.
这些就是你遇到的人。
So back to the patriotism, you know, thing.
回到爱国主义,你知道的。
By the time I was in the teams, I knew where I was sort of in this ecosystem.
当我加入团队时,我知道自己在这个生态系统中处于什么位置。
Admittedly though, what I didn't really have, Andrew, because it I mean, I love the country, of course, but it wasn't.
但不可否认的是,我并没有真正拥有什么,安德鲁,因为我的意思是,我当然爱这个国家,但事实并非如此。
Again, I didn't grow up with a dad who was like, you know, this was always in our house or...
再说一遍,我成长过程中的父亲并不是这样的,你知道,这总是在我们家里,或者……
It just wasn't that big of a thing.
这只是没什么大不了的事。
This came for me after 9-11, obviously.
显然,这是9·11之后我的事。
But yes, the patriotism and the importance of the job is there.
但是,是的,爱国主义和工作的重要性是存在的。
But when I remember checking the SEAL Team 3, what...
但当我记得检查海豹突击队第三队时,什么……
Would emerge very quickly for me because we had Vietnam vets in the training cell at SEAL Team 3 and just some amazing people.
对我来说很快就会出现,因为我们海豹突击队第三队的训练室里有越战老兵,还有一些了不起的人。
What I realized right away was, okay, playtime is completely over.
我立刻意识到,好吧,游戏时间完全结束了。
And that was very useful, like early lesson.
这非常有用,就像早期课程一样。
Not that anyone was fucking around in buds, like, you know, it's serious.
并不是说有人在萌芽状态下乱搞,就像,你知道,这很严重。
But you meet a guy like Master Chief Martin, who's got 100 combat missions from Vietnam.
但你会遇到像马丁士官长这样的人,他从越南执行了 100 次战斗任务。
He's about to retire.
他即将退休。
He was like the third person I met when I checked into the team.
他就像是我加入球队时遇到的第三个人。
And you suddenly are like a kid again where...
然后你突然又像个孩子了……
There's just no fucking around.
周围没有他妈的。
So you're in the teams.
所以你在团队中。
Presumably liking the work.
大概是喜欢这份工作吧。
Loved it.
喜欢它。
Loving the team component.
热爱团队的组成部分。
It's hard.
这很难。
It's unpredictable.
这是不可预测的。
And that's part of the...
这是...的一部分
The fun.
乐趣。
It's amazing.
太棒了。
Yeah, the job's amazing.
是的,这份工作太棒了。
You do a number of different deployments.
您执行许多不同的部署。
And at some point, you get called to try out for the Tier 1 division within the SEAL teams.
在某些时候,你会被要求参加海豹突击队一级部门的试训。
Maybe just explain a little bit of what Tier 1 means.
也许只是解释一下第一层的含义。

It's jumping airplanes.
这是跳跃的飞机。
Jumping.
跳跃。
Yeah.

So if we go to the drop zone and we go jumping, right, FAA regulations have you jump at 12,999 feet because as soon as you go above 13,000, you have to use supplemental oxygen, which is not a huge deal, but it's a pain in the ass for the airplane to have it.
因此,如果我们到达降落区并进行跳跃,对吧,FAA 规定你必须在 12,999 英尺处跳跃,因为一旦你超过 13,000 英尺,你就必须使用补充氧气,这并不是什么大不了的事情,但对于飞机来说却是一件痛苦的事情。
And so...
所以...
99% of all your jumps, well, at any standard drop zone, your civilian jumps are going to be below 13 grand.
好吧,在任何标准降落区,你 99% 的跳跃都会低于 13 级。

And you jump from way away.

Everybody turns IR lights on, their helmets and their infrared lights, so you can see through night vision.
每个人都打开红外灯、头盔和红外灯,这样你就可以通过夜视仪看到东西。
And you got to fly that canopy multiple, multiple miles and land everybody on a drop zone.

You know, that's, if you take every tactical thing we do.

是的。

If you ever read it or you go through the 17 stages or you see it or watch a short video anybody You'll see how damn near everybody's life, which is why it's called the monomyth He describes it as the monomyth or the cosmogonic cycle a little weirder term for it.
如果你读过它,或者经历过 17 个阶段,或者你看过它,或者观看任何人的短视频,你会发现每个人的生活多么接近,这就是为什么它被称为单一神话,他将其描述为单一神话或宇宙起源循环,这是一个有点奇怪的术语。

Supposedly 2,000 years of culture across multiple cultures.

在那个边缘,如果我说我一直在那个边缘,那么我就是在撒谎,所以我知道我对你在嗯的位置有一些感觉......
And under those conditions, I don't think there's a playbook.
在这种情况下,我认为没有剧本。
I mean, obviously, when people have a plan and they're thinking about implementing that plan, those people need to be put under protection from themselves.

能做到这一点,真是有实力啊。
Um...
嗯...
So you did ratchet yourself out of that very, very dark hole.

And, um...
而且,嗯...
I want to place this in the context of this hero's journey.
我想将其置于这位英雄旅程的背景中。
Would you see that, you talk about the magic flight that you're against, like the refusal, you won't go back.

听到你自己这么说,伙计,你就会意识到多么——荒谬。
Well, how untrue that must be at the physical level, but the nervous system doesn't know.
好吧,这在物理层面上肯定是多么不真实,但神经系统不知道。
To quote Dr. Paul Conti, the limbic system that experiences or creates this sense of fear and dread doesn't know the clock or the calendar.
引用保罗·孔蒂博士的话说,体验或创造这种恐惧感的边缘系统不知道时钟或日历。
It's like if you go, meaning if you experience that, there's the idea that it's going to go on forever.

Plateaus?
高原?
You don't have to share this, but...
你不必分享这个,但是......
Because I'm a believer that talk therapy can be very effective.
因为我相信谈话疗法非常有效。
Certainly that's an experience.
当然,这也是一种体验。
I wouldn't be here if it weren't for two in particular amazing people who really helped me along the way in that way.
如果没有两位特别出色的人一路以来对我的帮助,我就不会站在这里。
But I do think there's a place at times for pharmacology to assist the process.
但我确实认为药理学有时可以帮助这一过程。
Sure.
当然。
I know nowadays people hear SSRIs and they demonize those.
我知道现在人们听到 SSRIs 后就会妖魔化它们。
That wasn't I'll come clean.
那不是我会坦白的。
And then maybe if you feel like it, you can I had a bout of depression during my postdoc, did a short run of Welbutrin and Bupropion, which is more of the dopaminergic, noradrenergic agonism, mostly adrenaline, noradrenergic.
然后也许如果你愿意的话,你可以在我博士后期间经历过一次抑郁症,短期服用了维布特林和安非他酮,这更多的是多巴胺能、去甲肾上腺素能激动,主要是肾上腺素、去甲肾上腺素能。
It really helped.
这真的很有帮助。
It nuked my memory at the dosage they suggested, which meant I had to take a very low dose.
他们建议的剂量会破坏我的记忆,这意味着我必须服用非常低的剂量。
And then eventually I came off.
然后最终我下车了。
And I think that that's one thing I learned from Conti, which is that...
我认为这是我从孔蒂那里学到的一件事,那就是……
Most of these medications were designed to help people get over a bump, as opposed to be taken continuously.
大多数这些药物都是为了帮助人们克服困难而设计的,而不是持续服用。
Some people need to take them continuously.
有些人需要连续服用。
I have been able to be away from that for a long time, but I think pharmacology can help.
我已经能够远离它很长一段时间了,但我认为药理学可以提供帮助。
Oh, yeah.
哦,是的。
I think I'd have to go back and look.
我想我得回去看看。
Four months, maybe, of pretty low dose of Welbutrin.
大概四个月,服用相当低剂量的威布特林。
Thanks to...
感谢...
Yeah.
是的。
Yeah, that's about right.
是的,差不多是这样。
Yeah.
是的。
Thanks to my buddy, Jimmy.
谢谢我的朋友吉米。
You know, I called him and...
你知道,我打电话给他然后...
I asked him what he thought, and he said, well...
我问他怎么想,他说,嗯……
You use a gun sight on your weapon, don't you?
你的武器上使用了瞄准镜,不是吗?

如果你看不清,你就戴眼镜。
Nah, you need reading glasses.
不,你需要老花镜。

Back to the space-time bridging concept.

Just get back away from the danger for a few months.
只要远离危险几个月就可以了。
That really helped.
这真的很有帮助。
And that's very different than the backing away from the danger with, say, alcohol or drugs.
这与逃避酒精或毒品等危险截然不同。
And look, my stance on cannabis is some people can use it safely.
看,我对大麻的立场是有些人可以安全地使用它。
Most people probably cannot, but some can.
大多数人可能不能,但有些人可以。
But there's something different about the drugs that have an addiction potential or the drugs that disrupt sleep.
但具有成瘾潜力的药物或扰乱睡眠的药物却有所不同。
Like ultimately, if you look at people who commit suicide.
就像最终一样,如果你看看那些自杀的人。
And I spent a lot of time with this literature in almost every case.
几乎在所有情况下,我都花了很多时间研究这些文献。
In the preceding weeks, there's a disruption in sleep schedules, meaning disrupted from what they were doing prior to that when they were not probably suicidal.
在之前的几周里,睡眠时间表被打乱,这意味着他们之前所做的事情被打乱了,当时他们可能没有自杀倾向。
So then you think about alcohol disruption of sleep, even if you think you're sleeping.
因此,即使您认为自己正在睡觉,也会考虑酒精对睡眠的干扰。
And like it's there's a story like a common theme starts to emerge.
就像这样,一个共同主题的故事开始出现。
So you stabilize sleep, you were getting some dopamine and neurodegenerative assistance from the low dose of Wobutrin.
因此,当您稳定睡眠时,您会从低剂量的沃布特林中获得一些多巴胺和神经退行性帮助。
And you're basically also just offloading.
而且你基本上也只是在卸载。
You're just letting it all out.
你只是把一切都释放出来。
With a therapist.
与治疗师一起。
With a therapist.
与治疗师一起。
And the thing that strikes me as, to your point about my resistance to therapy versus jumping on airplanes or whatever.

I'm not a gender studies, sociologists, psychologists, neuroscientists, but...
我不是性别研究、社会学家、心理学家、神经科学家,但是……
Setting all the sociology and the nomenclature aside, If you had a short list of things like, seems like...
把所有的社会学和术语放在一边,如果你有一个简短的列表,比如,似乎......

I believe that it's important to be able to do hard things.

Funny that the prelude a little bit is I'm not a gender studies scientist either, a sociologist.
有趣的是,前奏是我也不是性别研究科学家,社会学家。
I stay away from most of these conversations, you know.
你知道,我远离大部分谈话。
But they're barbed wire they just people seem to be so over activated over stuff it's very odd But for me and my life experience, Andrew, it's range.
但他们是铁丝网,他们只是人们似乎对东西过于活跃,这很奇怪,但对我和我的生活经历来说,安德鲁,这是范围。
I like to use David Epstein's book title, right?
我喜欢用大卫·爱泼斯坦的书名,对吗?
It's Range.
这是范围。
Um...
嗯...
And I've noticed this so much because of parenting and watching my boys grow into men.
我之所以注意到这一点,是因为我养育孩子并看着我的孩子们成长为男人。
If I think about, I'm going to come back to range.
如果我想一想,我就会回到范围内。
If I think about myself at 17 or 18.
如果我想想17或18岁时的自己。
Not my parents, not my coaches, unless I really wanted it, you could not fucking tell me what to do.
不是我的父母,不是我的教练,除非我真的想要,否则你他妈的不能告诉我该怎么做。
You can't tell me what to do now.
你现在不能告诉我该怎么做。
Like, if I want it, I love the mentoring and the teammateship and the things that get you where you want to go.
就像,如果我想要的话,我喜欢指导和团队合作,以及那些能让你到达你想去的地方的东西。
But if it's something I don't want to do, I'm not doing it, you know, no matter what.
但如果这是我不想做的事情,我就不会做,你知道,无论如何。
And so...
所以...
If I think about that in terms of being a dad or manhood is Let's take it back to my kids.
如果我从作为父亲或男子气概的角度来思考这一点,那就让我们把它带回到我的孩子们身上。
I think I'm one of the most important parts of my job.
我认为我是我工作中最重要的部分之一。
Is to release the grip and take the reins off and just barely keep them inside the boundaries of A lot alive, you know, because they're gonna make all their own decisions anyway, and they have to All right.
就是松开手,松开缰绳,勉强让他们保持在“很多人活着”的范围内,你知道,因为无论如何他们都会做出自己的决定,而且他们必须这样做。
And so I think a big part that I see and I saw myself a lot for years.
所以我认为我看到了很大一部分,多年来我也看到了自己很多。
Was we overgrip sometimes as men, like we are so afraid of losing control in an already uncontrollable world.
作为男人,我们有时是否会过度控制,就像我们非常害怕在一个已经无法控制的世界中失去控制一样。
That we overgrip everything.

And I over gripped everything.

And suddenly when I'm not over gripping stuff.
突然间,当我没有过度抓东西时。
Things are going better.
事情正在变得更好。
And, um...
而且,嗯...
When it comes to range, it's okay.
说到射程,那就没问题了。
For me, it's okay to have your tough guy moments, your fighter mentality moments.
对我来说,拥有硬汉时刻、斗士心态时刻是可以的。
I would never want to lose that because...
我永远不想失去它,因为……
No matter how much help I get, when I'm out with my family or my wife or my boys, my head is on a fucking swivel.
无论我得到多少帮助,当我和我的家人、我的妻子或我的孩子们出去时,我的头总是他妈的旋转。
And if somebody touches them.
如果有人触摸它们。
It's curtains.
是窗帘。
And we need to keep that because that is just a part of life.
我们需要保留它,因为那只是生活的一部分。
Like you have to be.
就像你必须那样。
You cannot move through life with blinders on.
你无法戴着眼罩度过一生。
Like, there are people who are not good people.
比如,有些人不是好人。
And it's okay to have range and have that in your toolkit.
拥有范围并将其纳入您的工具箱中是可以的。
What I don't think is okay to do is to let that slice of the traditional, whatever you want to call it, aggressive manhood, be your whole life.
我认为不应该做的就是让传统的那一部分,无论你想怎么称呼它,侵略性的男子气概,成为你的全部生活。
Like, that's just not functional.
就像,这不起作用。
You know, it's not good for relationships.
你知道,这对人际关系不利。
It's not good for parenthood.
这对于为人父母来说并不好。
So...
所以...
Every other little tool you can put in that toolbox, it takes you all the way over here to what we might consider, oh, Coleman's going to, he's soft now.
你可以放入工具箱中的所有其他小工具,它都会带你一路走到这里,我们可能会考虑,哦,科尔曼会的,他现在很软。
No, no, don't mistake my kindness for weakness.

There's a category for everything, and I think that makes you such a much more complete person.

I feel like I'm brand new at being able to do other things in my toolbox.

I can go jump to that in a nanosecond.

This part over here of normalizing...
这部分是正常化的......
You know, life across a whatever, 80, 90, it's really hard.
你知道,跨越80后、90后的生活真的很艰难。
To sort of Excavate the normal shit.

But that's what I think we need to do.

You know what I mean?
你知道我的意思?
It's okay to be kind and...
保持友善是可以的,而且...
Calm and gentle and you know that's there's nothing wrong with that.
冷静而温柔,你知道这没有什么问题。
And I'm guessing the word surrender probably held a far different meaning for you in the past.
我猜“投降”这个词在过去对你来说可能有着截然不同的含义。
A lot of what you're describing is surrendering to the realities of life that we can't control everything.
你所描述的很多内容都是屈服于我们无法控制一切的生活现实。
And just how painful it is to undergo that surrender.
经历这种投降是多么痛苦。
And here I'm talking to myself, too.
在这里我也在自言自语。
It's a process I'm still deeply involved in.

You know, somebody who's tried to, you know, go rung over rung as best I can.
你知道,有人试图尽我所能地越过梯子。
Doesn't Andrew speak to our, like, evolutions?

Like, that is so difficult, at least for me and guys like me.

I'm putting you in my group here.
我把你加入我的小组了。
That is so hard to do.
那是很难做到的。
Like, that just tells me more about...
就像,这只是告诉我更多关于......
The evolution of our male system.
我们男性系统的进化。
Like that part's so easy and this part is not so easy, but man it's a It's a battle to remind myself, you know, slow down, listen, just the basic shit.
就像那部分很容易,而这部分却不那么容易,但伙计,这是一场提醒自己的战斗,你知道,放慢速度,听着,只是基本的狗屎。
You don't have to go attack every problem like a fist fight.
你不必像打拳一样去解决所有问题。
It's tough.
它太硬。
It is tough.
它太硬。
And I think that the more that I resist surrender, the more that, well, I believe in God, so I'll just say God, but God, the universe or whatever it is for people.
我认为我越是抗拒投降,我就越相信上帝,所以我只会说上帝,但上帝、宇宙或任何对人们来说意味着什么。
But for me, the more that God places me in circumstances that make the act of surrendering harder.
但对我来说,上帝越把我置于让我更难投降的环境中。
Like if I would just do it on my own, it wouldn't have to be so hard.
就好像如果我自己做的话,事情就不会这么难了。
I wouldn't have to, a good friend of mine, I'll mention my name, Tim Armstrong.
我不必这样做,我的一个好朋友,我会提到我的名字,蒂姆·阿姆斯特朗。
He just said like.

You don't have to, you can actually just like lower yourself down on a rope to the ground.
你不必这样做,实际上你可以用绳子将自己降低到地面。
And walk away, but then there's that stubbornness.
然后走开,但随之而来的是那种固执。
But I think that the stubbornness has its evolutionary adaptations too.
但我认为固执也有其进化适应。
And the hero's journey, nothing in the hero's journey says that the transitions between these different states are linear, are of equal duration, are of certainty.
而英雄的旅程,英雄的旅程中没有任何内容表明这些不同状态之间的转换是线性的,持续时间相等,是确定的。
Only that they exist and that there's no way, as you point out before, to skip steps.
只是它们存在,并且正如您之前指出的那样,无法跳过步骤。
You can't skip.
你不能跳过。
I couldn't skip.

If somebody skips, nobody, nobody skips.

And whether or not somebody tries to skip through psychedelics or through being the toughest or through the acquisition of money or just focusing on family, you know, a family obviously super important, but, but that's not going to accomplish the other aspects of, of the, of the journey.
无论有人是否试图跳过迷幻剂或通过成为最坚强的人或通过获取金钱或仅仅关注家庭,你知道,家庭显然非常重要,但是,但这并不能完成旅程的其他方面。
It's a huge part of it, but it's not, it's not the only part again, necessary, not sufficient.
这是其中很大的一部分,但它不是,它又不是唯一的部分,是必要的,但还不够。
Yeah.
是的。
It's like, again, it's the 12 steps or some, I'm not that experienced in it.
再说一次,这就是 12 个步骤或一些,我对此没有那么丰富的经验。
I just read about it a decent amount.
我刚刚读了相当多的内容。
It's like hitting every branch, but you gotta follow the steps, man.
这就像击中每根树枝,但你必须遵循步骤,伙计。
Or you can live with that low-grade pain non-stop.
或者你可以不停地忍受这种低度疼痛。
It's not a good way to live.
这不是一个好的生活方式。
No, because even if you're not conscious of it, it erodes you in ways that are very destructive.
不,因为即使你没有意识到它,它也会以极具破坏性的方式侵蚀你。
I wasn't conscious of it at all until the universe, as we say, came in with a fucking wrecking ball.
我根本没有意识到这一点,直到宇宙,正如我们所说,带着一个他妈的破坏球进来了。
And said, fine, you're not going to listen.

I sent you all these messages, you're not going to listen?

I think it's important that we...

It would be remiss for us to give the impression that like you're sitting there meditating, you're drinking your coffee 90 minutes late, late after you wake up, you're sitting there in bliss and thinking about all the great things that happened, how you made it through.
如果我们给人留下这样的印象,那就是你坐在那里冥想,你在晚了 90 分钟才喝咖啡,在你起床后很晚,你坐在那儿幸福地想着发生的所有伟大的事情,以及你是如何度过的,那就太失职了。
