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

Good training.Decent food.Enough discipline to scare the patrons of the hallowed purple halls of PF. …And yet their recovery felt like sand in the gears. Strength crawled. Hunger was like a feral cat at night if it was smoking with Snoop Dog. Everyone had that same haunted look, like they were doing everything...
Cold plunges have gone from “old-school recovery tool” to full-blown biohacker religion. Some people swear by them.Some people swear they’re killing your gains. And almost nobody is asking the only question that matters: What does the physiology actually say? In this episode of the Flex Diet Podcast, I sat down with Dr. Cass Fuchs from Maastricht University to break down the real science behind cold water immersion and what it does to: Muscle protein synthesis Recovery and performance...
It's Sunday, and I'm still feeling shattered from the events in Minnesota recently. I alternate between periods of profound sadness, anger, helplessness, and then back to hope, and then the cycle starts all over again. Thank you for all the kind notes everyone has sent in this difficult time. Thank you to all who purchased the Microlectures this past week.
