PS – My reason for offering up a f.ree 1-hour private consulting call is kick you a bit of an ethical kick in the a$$ to enroll as I believe the Phys Flex Cert will truly take your physiology and that of your clients to another level. https://miket.me/physflex
PPS -Here is what Jocelyn Awe, Director of Sports Performance had to say:
" As the Director of Sports Performance at Whitman College, my athletes love to know the ‘why’ of any mechanism/modaility. Dr. Mike's PFC course kept me ahead of the trends and has given me the ability to make direct and practical decisions for each on of my athletes.
Whether you are wondering about the keto diet all the way to the hot trend of ice baths. Dr. Mike sets you up in the best position to make practical and real-world decisions on how to manage the body.
PFC is a game changer.
PFC is practical.
PFC was an easy decision for me!” - Jocelyn Awe, Director of Sports Performance at Whitman College

He’s been collecting heart-rate data during actual emergencies. Not lab-coat pageantry on a moving belt. This was not a simulation cooked up in a lab with ethics forms, safety rails, and some intern holding a...
In this episode, I sit down with respiratory and sleep scientist Martin McPhilimey to take a deep dive into breathing, CO₂ regulation, and how they actually impact performance, stress, and sleep. 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. A few years ago I watched a very fit, very serious athlete fall apart in a repeated sprint test like a luxury sedan losing all four wheels on the freeway. On paper, he looked bulletproof.
