My mitochondria are retarded, do you have any advice? I have the mitochondrial dna sequenced in cram format if that's useful. Low heteroplasmy, very low mitochondria number per cell (0th percentile), and poor energy production.
Try High Intensity Interval Training. Really intensive short workouts of a few minutes seem to regenerate mitochondria.
Do you have a source I can follow
There are a number of articles and these are a couple.

Very interesting, wonder how this compares to just exercising
From what I’ve read it is claimed to regenerate mitochondria, be quite quick to do so you save time but other forms of exercise achieve different results like burning fat, cardio etc.
Wonder if you need good mitochondria to put on fat? I can only put on muscle
It’s more about metabolic health rather than weight loss or gain. Mitochondria are the powerhouse of cellular biology and not having enough or poorly functioning mitochondria leads to all sorts of problems like inflammation and metabolic disorders like diabetes. A well functioning mitochondria should give more energy and better performance as well as better health.
Can definitely tick the inflammation box lol
Source, please.
Edit: I read your sources. Very interesting!
