Tech mogul-turned-biohacker Bryan Johnson is on an all-out pursuit to stay young forever, but the routine he follows to keep in tip-top shape is both intense and insanely expensive.
In 2020, Bryan Johnson, from Venice, California, had an epiphany about his lifestyle choices. He has since embarked on a mission to optimize his health and de-age himself, following a militant diet and medical screening regimen to do so.
And unsurprisingly, the $2 million-per-year routine that the 46-year-old follows every day is pretty wild.

Johnson starts his day at 5am and immediately takes part in an hour-long high intensity workout. He maintains a strict vegan diet that never exceeds 2,250 calories, and has a strict bedtime routine that involves wearing blue light glasses and getting hooked up to a machine that measures his erections over night.
His daily routine also involves 111 supplements, four to five hours of 'concentrated thought' and regular blood transfusions and other health tests.
While the intense regimen seems absolutely bonkers, Bryan claims it's working and that he's managed to de-age parts of his body at a cellular level.
He told the BBC: "My left ear is 64, my fitness tests say I'm 18, my heart is 37, my diaphragm strength is 18," admitting that some body parts are older than others.
"I playfully say I'm trying to become like, an 18-year-old. My son is 17, so I always tease him and say, 'When I grow younger, I wanna be like you.'"
But Johnson's lifestyle certainly isn't for the faint-hearted and the tech-mogul is currently single.
Earlier this year, he shared a list of expectations he had for potential partners on X (formerly known as Twitter) and they're unconventional, to say the very least.
His top two priorities: being able to share an 11am dinner and an 8:30pm bedtime together, although he doesn't stand for pillow talk and you must sleep alone.
Also, don't expect to be treated to a nice summer vacation, as Johnson stipulates later down the list and all sex will be scheduled. "Ur not my #1 priority," he says.
On top of this, Bryan rather outlandishly expects his lover to 'give plasma,' something he does regularly and insists boosts his immortality.
He previously swapped blood with his 17-year-old son, who he called his personal 'blood boy,' although later said he would not do it again as there were 'no benefits detected' during the experiment.
