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

Real talk. In about 5 hours, the fast-action bonuses disappear. Not "maybe." Not "extended if we hit a goal." Gone. Here's what vanishes at midnight PST tonight: → The 6 Level 2 Advanced Modules This is the stuff I don't advertise. The deep work on adrenal fatigue, vegan athletes, hormonal testing, metabolic efficiency, the 80/20 rule, and adaptive cycles. These modules exist because after 20+ years of coaching, I realized the basics only take you so far. Eventually, you need to understand...
Quick heads up. The fast-action bonuses expire tonight at midnight PST. That means after tonight, you lose: Bonus 1: The 6 Advanced Modules This is the deep dive into the stuff that nobody talks about in most certifications. I’m pulling back the curtain on the things I’ve learned after years of coaching high performers and elite athletes. Here’s everything inside: Adrenal Fatigue: UncoveredI’ll show you exactly how to identify adrenal fatigue and avoid burning clients out from overtraining....
Let me hit you with a hard truth: most nutrition coaching fails because it’s fragile. It’s not because the science doesn’t work. It’s not because people don’t try. It’s because too many systems ignore the actual human part of the equation — and that’s when everything falls apart. Think about it: You’ve seen the “perfect plans” everywhere. The “carb cycling cures everything” guys. The “protein-only-no-carb” cult. The “fast for 16 hours and be invincible” crowd. But the real issue? These...
