Happy Sunday with an insane nail-biter win by my Vikings and a great win by the Broncos today, too.

The Phys Flex Cert opens up again on Oct 13. Tons of info about the course coming up this week

Here is what went down this week:

Newsletters:

• ​Death to Zombie Cells: Senolytics, Meathead Basics, and Donuts at Planet Fitness: When your sleep, nutrition, and training don’t suck, then you can start firing your lazy “zombie cells” with senolytic supplements. Here’s how I’m testing Qualia’s version and why it’s worth a look.
• ​Formula 1 Recovery Lessons for Your Nervous System: Most lifters can redline their system—but the real flex is hitting the brakes fast; here’s why building your Human Dynamic Range (HDR) is the secret to raging harder, recovering faster, and why I built the Phys Flex Cert to teach it.

Flex Diet Podcast:

Gym Tunes of the Week: Lamb of God “Sepsis”

So stoked about a brand new single from Randy and LOG right here. It does not get much better than this one. Crank it up and hit some PRs!

Much love,
Dr Mike
