I did my best to accommodate the most people possible, but I know this won't work for a few of you.

If you can't make it, all classes will be recorded so you won't miss anything.

Note- I will get to all of your questions but to keep the course on track, I may not get to your questions in the first class as I am going to place them where we talk about that topic.

The class will be for TWO WEEKS on Tues and Thurs with new material in each of the 4 classes.

Everything will be recorded.

Zoom link will be sent out to you on Monday (tomorrow).

So stoked to have you abroad the cardio train!

We get into why respiratory physiology is way more complex than most people think, how his clinical and research background shaped his approach, and why breathwork exploded during COVID with names like Wim Hof and James Nestor. From there, we dig into allostatic load and why piling on high-stress...

CO2 is not what you think it is. Neither is your pump pre-workout.
