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

The internet has once again found a perfectly useful physiological metric... ...and turned it into a religious war fought by GooRoos with ring lights. One camp treats VO₂ max like the final boss of human health. Get it higher. Then higher again. Keep going until your Garmin grants immortality and your mitochondria begin speaking Latin. The other camp says VO₂ max is overhyped, badly measured, and mostly useless because many studies used estimated METs instead of strapping every subject into a...
Let's drag one of the oldest meathead myths behind the gym and beat it unconscious with a kettlebell. "I lift fast." "I superset." "I do MetCons." "That's my cardio." No, Brosefus, it's not.
