HRV
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

And yeah—on paper? That number is wild, no doubt... ...But before you start celebrating or rage-posting about “shortcut culture,” let’s do the...
In this episode of the Flex Diet Podcast, I sit down with my good friend Aram Grigorian from the Real Coaches Summit to talk shop on what actually matters in coaching today. We dig into body composition and weight loss, why consistency still beats novelty, and how to think more clearly about calorie tracking without losing the forest for the trees. We also get into industry trends, client compliance, and why live, in-person events remain one of the most underrated tools for becoming a better...
Hola from getting up at 4 AM in frozen MN to the tune of -11 F to journey to the airport to be deposited by the flying germ tube to Reston, VA, where I am at a Mastermind Meeting Mon and Tues.

If you missed my podcast with Shiftwave Chief Medical Officers Dr Jeff then go here. Newsletters...
