The Analyst

Bryan Johnson has been optimizing his biology since 2021. He employs thirty doctors. He takes one hundred and eleven supplements daily, in a specific sequence that took years to develop. He measures his blood glucose, arterial stiffness, and sleep cycles, plus a battery of additional metrics that the average person has not considered, because the average person has not yet decided to treat their body as a company with quarterly reporting obligations. The annual budget is approximately four million dollars. He is forty-seven years old. His biological age, according to his own tests, is thirty-seven. He has announced this.

The Enhanced Games announced this week that Bryan Johnson will co-host their event as the Human Enhancement Analyst.

(The Enhanced Games is a sports competition that permits the use of performance-enhancing drugs. This is not a controversy. It is their premise. They are excited about it.)

Bryan Johnson, who has spent three years as the world's most documented biological self-experiment, will now attend a competition about biological optimization and offer analysis.

He has a credential for this. The credential is that he is the data.

The role of analyst involves observing something from outside and describing it. Bryan Johnson has been inside his own optimization project for 1,460 consecutive days. He has not stepped outside it, because the project is his body and his body is still running. He is being asked to analyze something he has only ever been.

The athletes have not published their data. Bryan Johnson has published all of his. He is already winning a competition that has not started. He is also in the commentary booth. The other competitors do not appear to know that he is in the race.

His biological age is thirty-seven. His chronological age is forty-seven. The Enhanced Games begin later this year. He has not announced whether he will be watching the competition or completing it.
