CEU Panic Season


It is your fav meathead nerd typing this somewhere between a caffeine overdose and upcoming wind here in South Padre TX....

...And guess what time it is?

CEU PANIC SEASON.

That magical annual ritual where fitness pros everywhere wake up in a cold sweat realizing their renewal deadline is coming faster than a rogue kettlebell to their head on a botched snatch.

You know the vibe:

  • “Oh crap, I still need 1.9 CEUs.”
  • “I guess I’ll take that $19 webinar on mindful breathing for postural hamsters nonsense
  • “Please no more PowerPoint slides narrated by someone who sounds like a sleep app.

So here’s me throwing you a lifeline — and lighting it on fire for good measure:

The Flex Diet Cert is OPEN for just 4 days — through Monday at midnight.

If you need CEUs, this checks the bureaucratic box.
Plus you will actually learn something useful about metabolism that doesn’t make you question your life choices.

Inside you’ll learn:
How to master metabolic flexibility — burning carbs or fat like a hybrid engine of gainZ.
Why “clean eating” is just marketing cosplay.
8 real-world interventions: sleep, protein, carbs, fat, fasting, training, NEAT, micros.
5 action steps per module so you can actually apply it — not just “learn about it.”

And it’s not just me saying it’s legit.
It’s approved for CEUs from NASM, NSCA, and ACE.
Yes, the real ones. Not the “Instagram influencer university” kind.

No fluff.

No GooRoo gossip.

Just real physiology, caffeine-fueled lectures, and the occasional story about setting myself on fire with a metabolism experiment. Ok, that did not really happen yet, but many of my experiments have gone sidewayZ

Doors close Monday at midnight CST.
Then it vanishes back into the metabolic underworld until Jan 2026 which is after your CEUs are due.

Much love, metabolic chaos, and smarter CEUs,
— Dr. Mike

PS -You can spend your weekend clicking through slide decks narrated by a potato…
...or you can learn the physiology that actually makes you a better coach and renew your certs at the same time.

Your move, meathead. Full details below

In this episode of the Flex Diet Podcast, I sit down with my good friend Dr. John Rusin to dig into his new book, Pain-Free Performance: Move Better, Train Smarter, and Build an Unbreakable Body. We talk all things movement, strength, longevity and how to actually perform at a high level without wrecking yourself in the process. John drops some serious wisdom from decades of training and coaching, and we get into the real science behind balancing load, recovery, and pain management so you can...

Greetings from nuking winds here in South Padre Island, TX, where your favorite nerd is going to test the theory of gravity today. Here is what went down this week: Newsletters: Sleep-Deprived Meathead Brain: When sleep, stress, and caffeine all fail, there’s one nerd-approved trick that can flip your brain back online in an hour, and no, it’s not more coffee. That MTHFR....: You don’t need a $599 gene test to “unlock your methylation.” You need creatine, sleep, and a reality check backed by...

Hola from S. Padre TX as it is your favorite kiteboarding and lifting nerd here, typing this with one eye twitching and the other half-open, because last night I slept like a caffeinated ferret in a leaf blower. You ever get that kind of brain fog?The kind where your neurons feel like they’re running on expired battery acid and your frontal cortex forgot how to human? But instead of biohacking nonsense or $600 “nootropic gene panels,” I reached for my old reliable: creatine monohydrate. Now,...
