The day begins with an extended version of his morning meditation. In trying to "stay as present as possible, grounded and centered," he said he'll rely on a variety of external stimulants.

McCarthy also frequently uses a Shiftwave chair, a device he was first introduced to during his final season at Michigan and believes in so much that he invests in the company. Developed by former Discovery Channel host Mike North, a mechanical engineer who was searching for ways to heal a broken leg and balance his mental health, the chair is designed to apply vibrations as part of a biofeedback loop that responds to the body's physical and mental state.
"The goal is very much putting a person into this kind of internal flow state," North said, "where they're able to freely flow between activate and go, and then relax, recover, reset. And so for someone like J.J., the ball snaps and you have to go. You want to be going a hundred miles an hour. But then the play's over. You want to come down as fast as possible, think clearly, recharge, recover, and then prepare for the next play." |
