Just give me 2 minutes
If you didn’t catch my earlier email, take a quick second to pause your day to read this one because it’ll only take 2 minutes, and it could be the one thing that changes the way you train your clients for life.
The Phys Flex Cert is officially OPEN for enrollment now.
When you enroll by tonight (Tues) at midnight PST, you get 2 bonus items:
- Fast action 48-hour bonus = Private 1-1 call with me valued at $250 – no cost to you
- The pre-recorded “Ask Me Anything” calls (expires this Wed at midnight)
After getting Phys Flex Certified, you’ll know:
- How to strategically program cold/hot therapy, breathwork, and the other homeostatic regulators that build robust and recoverable humans.
- How to help your clients become physiologically strong which will have them thriving in the uncertainty and stress that life throws at them.
- How to help your clients recover physically and mentally much faster from training.
This course was built for you if…
- You’re a trainer/coach who wants to have a step up/differentiator from other trainers. Most trainers don’t have the knowledge to program breathwork, hot/cold therapy, and how to work with pH changes and blood glucose in a way that’s simple yet very powerful for your average client.
- You’re a fitness enthusiast who’s confused about the latest fitness trends (biohacks, cough cough) and wants to know exactly how to work with them based on scientific studies.
In the Phys Flex Cert, I’m giving you the exact system that I use to train my clients on recoverability, health, and robustness.
Whether you’re an experienced trainer or simply have a passion for fitness, this course is for you.
The only requirement is that you show up, commit to yourself, commit to your current and future clients, and stop lighting your hair on fire.
I won't sit here and tell you that the course is easy.
I go ballZ deep in many areas via real research and practice for almost 30 total hours.
However, I know you can do it, and I'm here to personally answer any questions you have about the material.
That's right, you'll get my private email to ask any questions, and if you enroll before midnight tonight, you will also get a 1-hour private call to ask me anything.
I will do whatever I can to help you understand and apply the material.
You got this!
Much love,
Dr Mike
PS – The 48-hour bonus of the 1-1 consulting call for a full hour with me at no charge as the fast action bonus goes away tonight, Tuesday, at midnight PST, so don’t miss out.
PPS- here is what trainer and OCR athlete Ryan Baxter had to say:
Dr. Mike takes all the sexy topics you find tossed around by various "influencers" on the interwebs and on podcasts, breaks down the science and removes all the BS to show you exactly what the practical takeaways are.
As a coach, this leaves you free from having to decipher what is worthwhile and what is not, and gives you a set of actionable steps you can take with your clients that will help move them closer to their goals.” -Ryan Baxter, coach, OCR athlete, nerd

It is Sunday story time so let me tell you about two athletes. Same training. Same total carbs. Same 24-hour glycogen levels. One of them performs 30% worse the next day. Can you guess why? This is where the ultra hardcore science only crowd -who rarely ever train a single person = break out the pubmed studies and declare from the mountain" “Total daily intake of carbs is all that matters.” ...but is that still true today? Grab your propeller head and hold your glute max with both hands as we...
Yesterday we talked about the VO₂ max overreaction, if you missed it go HERE. Because several of you asked smart questions via email, I wanted to do a follow up FAQ as a bonus for you. “Do I use Morpheus for MET training?” No. I like it. Joel’s a great dude and long-time friend. But I write my own cardio programming. Always have. For grip?Adam Glass coaches me. Yes, coaches should have coaches. “How has training changed as you’ve aged?” Less drama. More precision. When I was younger, I...
The Overreaction to VO₂ Max Is Coming. Here’s What Coaches Need to Know. You can feel it, can’t you? The swing of the pendulum. First it was: 10,000 steps. Then HRV. Then cold plunges. Then everyone discovered VO₂ max and suddenly your aerobic capacity became your moral worth. And now the backlash is here. Eric Topol — in a widely circulated post on his Ground Truths Substack wrote an article entitled The Flawed VO2 Max Craze — steps into the arena the premise: “Hold on. Most of the mortality...
