Dr. Tracy Gapin, MD, is a globally recognized urologist, men’s health specialist, and performance optimization expert. As the founder of the Gapin Institute, he has spent over two decades helping entrepreneurs, executives, and high performers unlock their full potential through precision health and personalized wellness strategies.
In Episode 381 of The Road Differently Traveled with Jeff Smith — author, international speaker, and host of the popular “Vroom Vroom Veer” podcast — Dr. Gapin shared insights on how to take charge of your biology, elevate your energy, and create a personalized roadmap for success.
Together, the two explored how health, wellness, and mindset are critical pillars of true peak performance.
Why Peak Performance Begins with Precision Health
In this episode, Dr. Gapin emphasized that peak performance isn’t about working harder — it’s about working smarter with your body and mind. Entrepreneurs often pour endless energy into their businesses while ignoring warning signs from their health. This results in burnout, fatigue, and declining performance.
By leveraging precision medicine, Dr. Gapin helps clients understand their unique genetic code, hormone levels, and lifestyle factors. From a simple DNA mouth swab to advanced bloodwork, the data reveals how to customize diet, exercise, and supplementation for optimal results.

Unlocking Longevity & Energy
Jeff Smith guided the conversation into how aging entrepreneurs can “turn back the clock.” Dr. Gapin discussed strategies for extending longevity, including:
Hormone optimization for men struggling with low testosterone, fatigue, or poor recovery.
Gut health and inflammation control as foundations of overall well-being.
Sleep and recovery routines to restore mental clarity and decision-making power.
Nutrition tailored to genetics, instead of one-size-fits-all trends.
He explained that by controlling lifestyle factors and biological inputs, leaders can not only boost energy but also prevent chronic illness, reduce stress, and maintain long-term vitality.
