This morning I told you the Phys Flex Cert is open and I am so stoked… …however, I left out the part where I hired a brand new intern and I will tell you why this matters. His name is Roscoe. Official title: Extreme Human Performance Iron Intern. He lifts things he should not, reads half a study, and sprints off to “optimize” before the sentence is done. And yes he is a raccoon. Why a raccoon you ask? Well, they have opposable thumbs which make them handy. He is not technically a hooooman so my CPA said I don’t have to cover his retirement account, and he just roams through my trash at all hours for food, so he is cheap to boot. I explained this morning to Roscoe that your body defends four regulators at all times, and somewhere around regulator number two he had already grabbed a sauna suit, a bag of ice, and borrowed my brand new CO2 tank. His words, roughly: “I have a hypothesis. Where da the heavy stuff Boss?” Roscoe is going to spend this week blowing up each of the four regulators so you do not have to while hopefully leaving my townhouse and gym intact. Temperature, pH, fuel, breathing. He will test them all loudly, and I will explain what was actually supposed to happen. Consider this the before picture. Before the chaos starts tomorrow, two things worth your attention. Bonus Item! Most of them bonus items are junk piled on junk by the latest marketing maven to distract you from a thin offer. That drives me nuts, so I am not going to do that to you; hence I only added things I would actually hand a paying client. Here is what comes with enrollment this week, and when each one leaves: The private 1-hour call with me. The fast one. Gone Wednesday, October 14 at 11:59 PM Pacific — first 48 hours only. The Ask Me Anything audio series, 4.5 hours. Expires Friday, October 16. Plus 2 more that are on the enrollment page below >> Phys Flex Certification << open now! Payment Plans I know the economy is bat poop crazy if you live in the USA so I have a payment option where you can split it into a much more manageable payment plan at checkout. All the details live on the page. Tomorrow Roscoe meets an ice bath and learns a hard lesson about his own quads. >> Phys Flex Certification << open now! Much love and metabolic mayhem, Dr Mike PS — Scott Umberger put it better than I can: “You want actionable information, not opinions from a reality show or internet guru that has not worked with a single real person. PPS — Ben Mayfield-Smith at Matter Athletica in Australia: “The Phys Flex Cert is absolutely Matter approved for continued education. Pretty much anything by the good Dr. Mike Nelson is Matter Approved, folks.” >> Phys Flex Certification << open now! ________ Mike T Nelson CISSN, CSCS, MSME, PhD Mike T Nelson is a PhD and not a physician or registered dietitian.

Ever build a training program so beautiful you briefly considered framing the spreadsheet? Perfect progressions. Carefully planned deloads. Enough color-coded cells to make an Excel nerd weep with joy. Then your client shows up, and reality kicks the door off its hinges. They're training consistently, nutrition is pretty dialed in, and sleep isn't a complete trash bin fire. Yet one hard interval session, a little heat, or another stressful week leaves them absolutely cooked like any NFL...
Quick update, Meatheads: 9 of the 15 seats in The Meathead Engine Project are taken. That leaves six. Enrollment closes tonight, Friday, at midnight Pacific. Six months of aerobic programming built around your lifting, your recovery, and your current level of conditioning. Not some recycled cardio spreadsheet dug out of a dusty folder from 2017. Actual programming from yours truly, adjusted as you progress, with testing on both ends so we can see what the hell actually happened. We fire up...
Super stoked about the response to the Meathead Engine Project so far. I’ve gotten a few versions of the same questions so instead of letting those objections reproduce in the dark like unsupervised gym socks, let’s kill the big three. “I Don’t Have Time For Cardio” I get it. No self-respecting Meathead wants to spend 12 hours a week pedaling toward nowhere only to emerge with a blistered keester and an exciting new hatred of bicycles. Me neither. That’s exactly why the goal here is: Get the...
