Go anywhere these days, and the trend is to yammer on about recovery metrics.
Is it a helpful conversation? What are some things to look out for?
I was recently on Barbell Shrugged to chat about HRV, sleep, and using the Oura ring.
Check out the podcast below.
>> Tracking HRV and Sleep with the Oura Ring <<
As stated in the podcast, I'm stoked to work with Dr. Andy Galpin, Dan Garner, Anders, Doug, and the fantastic crew at Rapid Health!
I am helping with the visible stressor evaluations and Oura analysis. I've been working there part-time since November, and it is epic.
I am still here and working on other projects too. There's always something going on!
Much love!
Dr. Mike

So here we go. You ever notice how the more experienced you get, the harder decisions actually become? Not easier. Harder. Early on, everything feels simple:“Train harder.”“Eat cleaner.”“Sleep more.”“Just be consistent, bro.” Then you learn...
This one is a day late as I had a client (Hello Ann) here from PA from Friday night through this AM today. We got to do some movement asessments, hands on work, training - a lower body and upper body session, some other fun stuff like Dolphin MPS, great food + Guinness and lots of laughs - just what I need to feel like a human who is working to make an impact in a crazy world. Here's what went down this week. Newsletters: The purple halls are full of motivation... I explain why most smart,...
Holy hell — thank you. Seriously. I hit “send” on the last newsletter, closed the laptop, and braced for impact like a fighter pilot flying into weather with questionable instruments. Turns out?Most of you were right there with me. Replies. Messages. A few folks weren’t thrilled — which is fine. If everyone agrees with you, you’re probably saying nothing interesting.
