This week on the Science for Sport Podcast, host Richard Graves is joined by Dan Metcalfe, former youth footballer, West End performer, Olympic development coach, and now international keynote speaker and founder of Born Superhuman.
Dan’s story is nothing short of extraordinary. From a career-ending accident that left him paralysed and blind in one eye, to rebuilding his life, defying medical diagnoses, and going on to coach Olympic-level athletes. His journey is a masterclass in resilience, mindset, and human potential.
In this inspiring conversation, Dan shares the philosophy that underpins his Born Superhuman method, revealing how mindset, breathwork, hydration, and self-belief can transform performance in sport and life.
In this episode, you’ll learn:
- How Dan overcame paralysis and rebuilt his life
- Why mental training is just as critical as physical training for peak performance
- The seven pillars of Dan’s Born Superhuman philosophy and how they apply to everyone
- How reframing setbacks as “gifts” can unlock growth and success
- Why elite athletes and CEOs alike struggle with the same mental blocks, and how to rewire them
- The simple word change that helped Dan drop from 21% to 8% body fat without changing his diet
- How hydration, sleep, and breathing directly impact focus and performance
- The neuroscience behind belief, recovery, and human potential
