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

These wandering souls are motivated as hell — especially right now in mid-January. They read the latest...
Hola from a completely sideways week here in Minnesota. This was one of those weeks where the world doesn’t just feel heavy — it feels like the whole darn thing tilted. Real heavy. The kind of week that tightens your chest before the coffee hits and makes everything else feel suddenly… smaller. So yeah — I’m pulling back from social media a bit this week.Posting a few things.Then ghosting like a cryptid. And I keep reminding myself, my clients, and now you of the same uncomfortable truth: If...
Pull up a chair for this one Brosefus... ...because the GLP-1 conversation right now feels like watching a casino commercial at 2 AM.Bright lights. Big promises. Nobody talking about the hangover.
