Phys Flex Cert is OPEN
As promised, the Phys Flex Cert is open now for a limited time.
The link above has all the details for you.
And when you sign up by this Tues night at midnight PST, you get an exclusive bonus item for f.ree just by being a bad ass rapid action taker.
In fact, when you enroll before then you will get a 1-hour call with yours-nerdy here to answer any questions you have about fitness, nutrition, training, neurology, you name it.
That is a legit $250 value that you get at no charge if you enroll by this Tues at midnight PST.

Dr Mike
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

My undergrad was in Duluth at St Scholastica and my graduate and PhD work was at the University of MN. I love it here despite some days I piss and moan about the cold in the winter. ***Tomorrow will resume this newsletters fitness only...
Somewhere around 2:47 a.m., your nervous system throws a wild internal rave — all lights, noise, and false alarms — and drags you out of deep sleep to negotiate with the toilet. Again. This isn’t aging.This isn’t weak willpower.And it’s usually not a bladder problem. It’s a systems failure — fluid timing, kidney handling, nervous system tone, and sleep depth all colliding like drunk bats in a phone booth. The good news: most cases don’t need pills, patches, or a urologist with a prescription...
Huge thanks for those who are in Applied Growth 2026- awesome I am stoked to work with you! Today I’m joined by my good friend Dr. Eric Trexler, exercise scientist, educator, and Director of Education at Stronger by Science, for a wide-ranging, no-BS conversation on what physiology actually looks like in the real world. We dig into beetroot juice, nitric oxide, and “pump” supplements, why the blood-flow story is usually oversold, and why neuromuscular function and calcium handling may matter...
