Can you rewire your muscle power and cognitive reaction time in just 72 hours? A brand-new 2026 triple-blind trial says yes—but only if you're using the right form of Vitamin B12.In today's deep-dive, we're breaking down a fascinating randomized crossover trial involving well-trained cyclists. The results were staggering: just 1mg of Methylcobalamin (MeB12) daily led to a 4.1% boost in peak power and a 4.9% improvement in mental reaction speeds.We explore why "Active" B12 (Methylcobalamin) targets the central nervous system and peripheral muscles so rapidly, and why the standard form of B12 might be holding your performance back.What You Will Learn (The MeB12 Sprint Hack):• The "Active" Difference: Why Methylcobalamin (MeB12) works on the nervous system while standard B12 often falls short.• The 72-Hour Window: The exact timeline the researchers used to see a 4.1% increase in absolute peak power.• The Pre-Game Brain Boost: How the cyclists improved their reaction time by 4.9% before the physical test even started.• Fatigue Management: Why MeB12 significantly reduced the "Fatigue Index" during high-intensity interval sprints.• The Practical Protocol: The specific 1mg daily dose used in the study to achieve these results.[Academic Source] Martínez-Noguera FJ, et al.

In this episode, Cheryl sits down with Brad Pitzele to unpack a long and complicated health journey that began with early autoimmune symptoms and escalated into psoriatic arthritis, debilitating fatigue, and eventually melanoma linked to immunosuppressive treatment. Frustrated by a system that offered only escalating medications and limited answers, Brad began an intense period of self-experimentation and research. His turning point came after a Lyme disease diagnosis, one that helped connect years of seemingly unrelated symptoms. This ultimately pushed him deeper into understanding the root causes of chronic illness, especially the role of mitochondrial dysfunction and inflammation. From there, the conversation shifts into the tools that helped Brad reclaim his health, including exercise with oxygen therapy (EWOT) and red and near-infrared light therapy. He explains how both approaches work at a cellular level to improve oxygen delivery, support mitochondrial function, and reduce inflammation. Thseare are all mechanisms that have implications for conditions like chronic fatigue, autoimmune disease, multiple sclerosis and even cardiovascular health. This episode is a deep dive into resilience, curiosity, and the power of continuing to search for answers when conventional paths fall short, offering both practical insight and hope for anyone navigating complex or unexplained health challenges.

He has a really interesting background with some challenging diseases and scenarios that he went through. And you know, like many of the guests on the HealNursery podcast, he just has a health journey that he wants to share with people and kind of what ended up actually helping him. Because so often people go down these roads with different conditions and they just have a lot of trouble finding out number one what it is, number two if there’s anything that can help them feel better or how to treat it. And so I think Brad’s going to have a lot of really interesting things to share with us today. So Brad, if you could just maybe start by, I don’t know how far in the way back machine you want to go, but kind of just, you know, give us a little bit about your health journey. And as we go along, I’m sure I’ll have some kind of questions to fill in for everyone. Brad Pitzele (00:50)Yeah, I had weird health things going on since grade school. I was diagnosed with psoriasis, but then I had other weird things that just kind of came and went. We’d go to the doctor, they’d give it a label. It would last for a while. There was no treatment for said label and then it would kind of just disappear and then I’d move on with life and then a year or six months or whatever, something else might pop up. But it really kind of started to come to a head. Um, probably around 2010 or 11, I started to develop autoimmune arthritis, what was considered psoriatic arthritis, which is, it’s basically like rheumatoid arthritis, but it’s what you get with psoriasis. Um, and they started to test all sorts of different drugs on me. The first sets didn’t work. Then they put me on, um, some immune suppressive drugs. They gave me relief for like maybe six months and they’d start wearing off and they would double the dose and they’re. I was kind of worse off when it wore off and then it would kind of bring me up a little bit. And then was kind of like I was taking a stair step into, you know, into a worse and worse place. And I was on those drugs for probably about two years. And then I developed melanoma. And that’s one of the side effects of the drugs is it’s got a high risk of cancer and specifically melanoma. So that was kind of a, a jumping off point for me. I, during that period, I also started to develop weird other symptoms. Like I started to get stiffness in the back of my legs. had tremendous brain fog and energy issues. had pain in my feet and I would take this back to the rheumatologist and I’d be like, this is, is this part of the, this disease? assume. he was like, no, that’s not part of the disease. And I was kind of shocked and like, well, it feels like part of the disease. It’s kind of, you know, it’s just. Cheryl McColgan (02:38)All right. Brad Pitzele (02:41)another symptom of whatever’s going on with me. But he didn’t really acknowledge that. And then when I got cancer, I went back to him and I was like, Hey, you know, I’m really afraid I’m like, if I keep taking these drugs, more risk of cancer. I don’t take these drugs. I, you know, I die, cripple crumpled up in a ball in the corner, so to speak. And he was kind of like, no, I don’t think that’s going to happen. Yeah. I think we’re just going to try another drug in the, the, the same category. And that was like, just started having alarm bells in my head. Just started shouting at me. was like, either path feels like it’s very bad. And I was a, I had a young children at the time. I was a relatively new father and that was even more scary. I was kind of the single income in the household. And I just started like, I’m like, what happens if these things happen to me to not just me, but my family. and that’s kind of when I started jumping off and like doing my own research and trying to figure out what I call a third path for because neither of those really made sense to me. Cheryl McColgan (03:40)those both sound like not very good options. I’m just kind of curious when you were going back to the doctor with these things, kind of two questions here actually. One, and I think I already know the answer, but one, were drugs the only answer that this doctor was able to give to you? And secondly, I think having the cancer being a known side effect of the drug is really interesting. you ever talk about what the mechanism there is or anything to know about that just for people with curiosity? Brad Pitzele (04:07)Yeah, so yeah, mostly it was drugs. He did also offer me injections of steroids into some of my joints. He was very skilled at it, because he said it was gonna be very painful. It wasn’t that painful, but steroids turn off your immune system. And it’s the same thing with some of the drugs I was on. One of them was a… I won’t call brand name, but it was a TNF inhibitor. TNF stands for tumor necrosis factor. And it’s basically in a component of our immune system. And so there was some research done and they found that if they turned off that component of your immune system, hey, the pain and symptoms go away. Unfortunately, as the name alludes to, it kills tumors. when you turn it, we all have cancer in our Cheryl McColgan (04:49)Yeah Brad Pitzele (04:52)body. Like right now as we speak, everyone has it. It’s just our immune system is able to kill it off and so it never really gains a foothold. But once you start tipping the balance of the scales, obviously, you know, it can run amok. And that’s what happened in my case. Cheryl McColgan (05:08)Yeah, very interesting. also it just brings up so many other questions that I’ll have to go down a rabbit hole after we’re done with our conversation. But so you had these things, you didn’t have good relief, you were still having symptoms, then you got cancer. And I assume obviously you had to get treated for that at that point. Was that really the turning point for you to just be like, I’ve got to find some other way to manage this? How did how did things go from there? Brad Pitzele (05:30)Yeah, it was, and I’m not gonna tell you it was a fast turn for me. It took me several years. But I mean, from there, I just started reading anything I could. I read books, I was out on the internet, I was in chat groups talking to other people who had similar symptoms, Facebook groups, Googling on PubMed, looking at research, so many rabbit holes I ran down. I was joking, I’m recovering engineer. ⁓ I got my undergraduate in mechanical engineering, so I’m very analytical by my nature, I suppose. Research didn’t scare me, and I just was reading anything I could. I wasn’t gonna… Cheryl McColgan (05:55)You Brad Pitzele (06:07)You know, wait for them to find something in the research and then try to translate it 20 years later. Like that does me no good. and I tried everything. I did a lot of self experimentation, everything from complete changes of diet, supplements, so many, mean, different modalities, all sorts of weird stuff. Sometimes my family looked at me pretty good side, I when they saw some of the stuff I was doing. but you know, when you’re, when you’re really desperate and. things are getting worse and worse. And particularly when you also feel this responsibility and obligation to your family, you just, it’s not even just about you. You’re like, what do I do? I like, I’m gonna disappoint all these people and life is not gonna be good for them. I just told myself, I’m not allowed. know, like this is absolutely not allowed. This is not gonna happen, but it kept happening for a few more years. And then, I ended up at a doctor’s office and he tried all sorts of things. Nothing was working. He was an MD, but he was non-insurance, so was integrative. And he was trying all sorts of alternate modalities on me. Even the things he was sure were gonna do anything, nothing was doing anything. He’s doing testing on me, nothing was popping. And then he suggested I do a Lyme disease test. I remember thinking, I’m like, doctor, I don’t have Lyme disease. I’m like, I’ve never been bitten by one of these ticks. I’ve never had that bullseye rash thing. I’m thinking to myself, I don’t have that. But I was kind of like, you know what? And it was expensive test at the time. It was like 500 bucks. Insurance didn’t pay. But I was like, you know what? I’m gonna pay the 500 bucks. I’m gonna do the test so he can see it’s negative and we can get him off this Lyme thing. We can get to the real deal because it’s not Lyme. And sure enough, it came back that I had Lyme disease and one of its co-infections called Bartonella, which is the infection that causes cat scratch disease as well. And I was so shocked. went back to him. was like, doc, what’s the chances this is a false positive? I don’t think I have it. And he was like, Brad, it’s a urine PCR, which means you have the DNA of those bacteria in your urine. What do you think is the chances it’s, it’s false positive? I’m like, got it. Cheryl McColgan (08:12)Not. Brad Pitzele (08:14)And that’s when it finally started to hit. ⁓ Cheryl McColgan (08:16)Well, just for people that aren’t familiar, I think everybody’s kind of heard of Lyme disease at some point, maybe Bartonella, but what did that kind of mean to you at the time? Like I’m sure once you got that diagnosis, you wanted to learn more about it. Were you thinking that that explained some of the things that you had up to this point or how did that mesh into the whole symptom profile? Brad Pitzele (08:36)Life disease is incredibly challenging. for a variety of reasons. One, it’s very difficult to get under control. There’s a lot of folks in America and across the world, quite frankly, suffering with it right now. The other reason it’s tough is there’s not a lot of doctors willing to treat it. There’s this whole stigma about it. What makes it particularly difficult is there’s this question on if it actually exists in some doctor’s head. It’s like the weirdest thing in the world. We know there’s this infectious agent, we know it infects humans, and yet when a human comes to the doctor and says, I’ve been infected by it, they’re like, are you sure? And so you kind of get, I think the term I hear often is medical gas lit. And on top of that, doctors, for legal reasons, often don’t want to touch it. So my doctor didn’t want to touch it. And he was like, look, you have to go to a Lyme specialist three hours away. I recommend him as best I can. And it was a long waiting list to get into this doctor’s office. And while I was waiting, just… I was relentless, you I just couldn’t sit here and let myself deal with all this. It was a three month wait. And so I just started reading voraciously on Lyme disease to your point. was reading all sorts of research. I was reading books on it, a lot of books on the, like the science and what was happening to your body mechanically. And it was actually pretty eye opening because when I started to read all these symptoms, I was like, I started to piece together all these pieces, the puzzle that happened to me in my childhood, ⁓ things that happened Cheryl McColgan (10:12)Mm. Brad Pitzele (10:13)more recently, things that the rheumatologist couldn’t explain, but now we’re clear as day what was going on. And so the jigsaw puzzle started to fall into place for me. So it was kind of an epiphany from that perspective, yeah. Cheryl McColgan (10:29)Yeah, that’s got to be the waiting had to be one of the hardest things, I’m sure. then once you finally got to him, did he because he was specialized in Lyme specifically, did he have any solutions for you? Or then was it somewhere that you still had to go to go down the road? Brad Pitzele (10:42)No. You know, the disappointing thing is, I ended up, the whole family was diagnosed with Lyme disease, not just me, my children and so forth. So we all carted in the car down three hours from, I live in Dallas area down in Austin. He had a lot of things to say to us. It was kind of stuff I’d already read. Most of it I’d already tried. know, supplements I’d already run through myself and like it became cost prohibited both the time and the visitation and we just didn’t get anywhere. So we probably visited him. five or six times and then I was like, okay, well this is not, know, and was, each time it was kind of clear, like his tools were somewhat limited. And so then it was time to kind of, while I was doing his stuff, I was also just actively experimenting. was, you know, was a, you know, a test dummy every set, every second of it, because again, you know, you just can’t wait, you know, come back in two months. You’re like, if this thing doesn’t work in a few weeks, I got to, I’ll keep doing it, but I’ll add other things. See where I go. Cheryl McColgan (11:46)Right, well, I’m sure once you knew that your whole family had this issue that probably made you want to solve it even more, not that it wasn’t enough for you to solve it for yourself, but now you’ve got other people in your family that you want to feel well, you know? Brad Pitzele (11:53)Yes. Absolutely, absolutely. was definitely set heavy on my mind. Just I didn’t want the kids to have to go down this path. Cheryl McColgan (12:06)So this kind of leads us into this whole backstory into the sign that’s behind your head right now, 1000 roads, because you kind of did that many roads to get here, right? And so what did you come across? I thought that was like one of the best business names I’ve ever seen, the way, knowing the backstory. But anyway, what was it that you found in the research or what led you to kind of, there’s a couple of things that did end up helping you, which is awesome, because I think now we’re going to share this with people because Brad Pitzele (12:16)Yeah, that’s right. you Thank you. Cheryl McColgan (12:35)Like you said, there’s plenty of people out there with Lyme disease. There’s plenty of people out there with unexplained illnesses or things that are affecting them. And, you know, there are some interesting tools that do work, worked in your case. So how did you end up finding what actually ended up working for you? Brad Pitzele (12:50)Well, I eventually started doing a lot of research on all sorts of things. And one thing that stuck with me was mitochondrial health. I hear more and more folks talking about it in recent years, which is great, but this is probably about a little 10, 12 years ago. It really wasn’t a well-spoken about area. the more I researched about mitochondrial health, the more I realized this is at the root of everything. So for your listeners, the mitochondria are this little organelle, this little subset inside all of your cells that produce the energy. And they’re extremely fragile. And when they get damaged or they’re not working efficiently, nothing works efficiently because everything takes energy, right? Us talking takes energy, thinking takes energy, moving our muscles, our organs working take energy, repair our immune system, all of it. And so often when you’re dealing with chronic health conditions, particularly when you’re dealing with an infectious agent or even cancers, they go after our mitochondria. because they kind of take the power down in the system and that gives them a leg up on our immune system and our defenses and it allows them to kind of I would call it just burrow deeper into our biology and you know shift the biology to be more favorable towards whatever that is. So for me it that was kind of an epiphany and I delved into a couple tools and the first one was something called exercise with oxygen therapy. also known as EWOT, E-W-O-T. No one was really talking about it. It was kind of the small little thing, not a lot of information out there. And then there was a second one, more folks have heard of today, which is red light therapy, and really red and near infrared light therapy. And they both work through mechanisms that help the mitochondria restore itself. Cheryl McColgan (14:45)Yeah, the exercise, I was looking at the photo on the website of the EWOT contraption and I’m kind of having a hard time conceptualizing. think what, and actually before we go into that, let’s address this other question that came up in my mind when I was looking at the contraption, because I’m like, okay, the thing that most people are probably somewhat familiar with nowadays is a hyperbaric oxygen chamber. And that is used in cancer treatment. think it was, Dr. Seyfried has this thing, and you might be familiar with him just like. through your mitochondrial research, but it’s called like a press pulse thing that they use with cancer patients. And it has to do with ketogenic diet, because you’re starving the cancer of sugar. And then also this hyperbaric oxygen therapy. That’s, that’s all just kind of a weird aside for people that are hearing this, it really has nothing to do with this conversation. But it’s interesting to look up. But for your thing, the hyperbaric works in one way. And I think people like you can visualize it, because you go in and you kind of just lay down. And that’s what it is. But this And when people go to the website, they’ll see it. It’s kind of, looks like a big balloon or a box. So guess I’m having trouble kind of conceptualizing how do you even use that or, how do you exercise with that? That’s a very long winded question, but hopefully we’ll get there. Brad Pitzele (15:47)Yeah. Sure. Well. Yeah, that’s great. So I think it’s two questions. What is it? How does it work sort of thing? Exercise with oxygen therapy at its principles really simple. It simply involves doing any sort of exercise, preferably something that gets your heart rate up, generally cardiovascular exercise, while wearing a mask and breathing near pure oxygen, so about 93 % oxygen. So to your point about how does the contraption or the EWATS system work, it works as, it’s like this, there’s actually a device called an oxygen concentrator that can produce an endless supply of oxygen. You plug it into the wall and you flip the switch and it takes the oxygen in your room, which is probably at like let’s say 21 % at sea level, and it purifies it to 93 % oxygen by separating out the other gases, the nitrogen and the argon. which is great, but these machines that you can plug into your wall, your home outlet, they produce only five or 10 liters of oxygen in a minute. And when you exercise, you can easily use 50 or 60 liters in a minute. So to get a 15 minute session in, you can easily use 900 plus liters of oxygen. And that machine’s only putting out at the best 10 liters of it. And so every minute. And so what we do is we take that machine and we fill a large reservoir to a thousand liters. So think of it as about six feet, five and a half, six feet squared. It looks like a big pillow. And we fill that thing with oxygen. Now to like dimensionalize this for folks, a thousand liters of oxygen is similar to the amount of oxygen you’ll breathe in an entire day. And we’ll fill this, this, you know, bloom, what we call a reservoir with oxygen. And then we’ll attach a hose with a mask on the end of it. Put the mask on and you just breathe out of that reservoir. of water. So again, in that 15 minutes, you can take in a whole day of oxygen. It’s really a massive amount. Now, how does it compare to hyperbaric oxygen? That’s a really good question. Hyperbaric oxygen, at its core, what you do is you get inside of a chamber, they pressurize it, and that forces more oxygen through your lung membrane and into your blood. Now, Once it gets past your lung membrane and into your blood, your, what happens in hyperbaric oxygen is it goes not just into your red blood cells, because if you look at your red blood cells right now, which are the parts of your blood that are designed to carry oxygen, they’re at capacity. Like you can put a little pulse oximeter on your finger and it’ll say 99 % or 100 % or 98%. And so there’s not room for more oxygen, but what hyperbaric does, and EWAT does the same thing, is it actually forces oxygen into your blood plasma. Now blood plasma is this clearish brown liquid, it’s effectively water plus plus, that all the red and white blood cells ride on. And so it can actually turn that into an oxygen carrying vehicle inside your blood, something that normally doesn’t carry very much oxygen. And that’s through a process called Henry’s Law, which goes beyond human biology. It’s really just a chemistry law that says, you take an insoluble gas and enforce it on top of an insoluble liquid, it’ll force the gas to go into solution. In this case, the gas is oxygen and the liquid is blood plasma. Now, in hyperbaric oxygen, the body tries to get back into balance. It notices there’s a surplus of oxygen in the blood. And so your body tries to regulate, go back to homeostasis by using something called vasoconstriction, which means your blood vessels constrict. They get smaller to allow less of that oxygen through. So your body is naturally fighting against delivering that oxygen. In spite of that, you deliver a large dose of oxygen to the tissues. In IWA, what we do is we come to the opposite. Instead of using pressure to force more oxygen into and through your lungs, we use exercise to pull it through. So when you start exercising, your body immediately recognizes that it needs more energy. And the gating factor in producing more energy is oxygen. We all in this Western world generally get enough food. It’s just we’re… When you’re exercising, there’s not enough oxygen. So when it notices this, you have all these physiological changes, right? You start breathing faster and deeper. Your lung membrane actually thins out to allow more oxygen to pass through. Your heart starts beating faster. Every beat is deeper. Your blood vessels actually dilate. They actually open up to allow larger blood flow through them. And then when you exercise, naturally, actually, your blood pressure goes up. And most of us think, no, high blood pressure is bad, but in exercise it’s actually really good because the more pressure inside your blood, that differential between the pressure in your circulatory system and the tissues is like a driving force that drives the oxygen out of the blood and into the tissues. we do EWAT, we’re taking advantage of all those physiological changes to allow us to take in oxygen very quickly and deliver it deeply into the tissues. in a 15 minute EWAT session, you could take in as much oxygen as you would in a hyperbaric session in 90 or more minutes. It’s really quite a large dose. Cheryl McColgan (21:09)Wow. then what about, so how does that affect the mitochondria? Does it just give them more energy and kind of helps them repair quicker? Or what’s the connection between mitochondrial health and the EY? Brad Pitzele (21:16)Thank This is actually the really fascinating part. And this is the thing that really got me more interested in it. EWAT was founded actually in the 1960s and 70s. There was this prolific inventor named Manfred von Arden. He was a German physicist and inventor. He invented the scanning electron microscope. He helped commercialize television technology in the 1930s. And he got interested in oxygen in 1960s and 70s because there was a gentleman named Warburg in the 1920s who had proven that he could take any cancerous cell, any regular cell and turn it into a cancerous cell simply by depriving it of oxygen. And the reverse was true. So Von Arden got interested in that, wanted to start experiment with oxygen, simply trying to reverse cancer. And along the way, what he discovered is something really powerful about our circulatory system, which is as we age, this thing we now refer to as inflammation happens inside our bodies, this slow, gradual increase in inflammation and that affects every part of our body including our circulatory system. But our circulatory system is actually kind of a weak link. At the very end of your circulatory system is your capillaries and they’re incredibly thin and they’re actually the component where the oxygen and the nutrients gets transferred from the circulatory system to the tissues. So you’ve got these really thin capillaries, thinner than a human hair, actually smaller than a red blood cell. In order for a red blood cell to get in a healthy capillary, it has to fold over like a taco to get in because it can’t fit in normal if it’s fully expanded. So there’s not a lot of room for error. And when you start having this inflammation, it causes blockages in the capillaries. So when that happens, you lose circulation downstream. You have what I call a brownout. All the cells on the other side of that inflammation are no longer getting red blood cells, they’re no longer getting oxygen. Luckily, our body does have a backup generator and that’s called anaerobic respiration. Anaerobic respiration is when they create energy without oxygen. But the problem with it is multi-fold. Number one, it only can produce about 5 % of the energy, it can produce what has oxygen. So immediately the cells are like powering down, they’re not able to do all of their essential functions. problem is it produces a massive amount of metabolic waste and free radicals and those things damage our mitochondria because our mitochondria are incredibly fragile as we spoke about earlier and they’re right at the heart of it wherever you’re producing energy you have some free radicals but now when you shift over to anaerobic all of a sudden you’re just spitting out all sorts of damaging chemicals if you will and it has no energy so it has no way to actually clear it and so it becomes I kind of call it’s like a doom loop, which is it starts with dysfunction the dysfunction causes more free radicals which causes more damage and dysfunction and Soon enough, you know, you’ve got these kind of almost zombie cells. They’re just having a hard time Doing anything and then when you do IWA what’s amazing is the oxygen because it’s Inside the plasma it can get through those blockages. So it immediately starts to feed those downstream cells the oxygen they’ve been starving but more importantly than that immediate fix if you will is they cause an anti-inflammatory effect and this was another like big aha in my healing journeys when I realized There’s plenty of research on this. Anywhere in your body you have inflammation, you have the hypoxia, which is the fancy medical term for oxygen starvation. So inflammation means local oxygen starvation. And anywhere you have oxygen starvation, you have inflammation. They go hand in hand. You can’t have one without the other. And so when we restore oxygen, even in the circulatory system, we can turn off that inflammation that’s happening in our capillaries, reestablish normal blood flow. So you get done doing your EWOT sessions. And Von Arden discovered this. had elderly people, he looked at their capillaries and their throughput, and he had them do just a couple sessions of EWOT, and they came back weeks later, and their microcirculation was still reestablished to more youthful levels. So he was able to open them back up where red blood cells were able to deliver oxygen. really at the root of it all is, you know, every chronic illness you can think of, it has inflammation. Right? mean, there’s not one Alzheimer’s, cancer, autoimmunity, the list goes on and on, name one and it has chronic inflammation. And there’s actually, there’s a gentleman, Arthur Guyton, he wrote the textbook, Medical Physiology, and every doctor any of us has ever gone to had to use that medical physiology book. when they went to medical school, it’s been the standard across the world for over 50 years. And he has this great quote where he says all disease at its root is lack of oxygen. And it’s really true because once the mitochondria break down and we start having inflammation, all the negative effects come from downstream from that. And so that was kind of my. Aha. Light bulb moment, which is if I can turn my mitochondria on it, and I can turn down the inflammation and eventually turn off the inflammation. then like my body will have energy to get ahead. can start to repair itself. It can start to detoxify the immune system. Then we’ll have energy to do everything it needs to do and help, you know, kind of kick on and start to fight a good battle, so to speak. Cheryl McColgan (26:58)Yeah, I mean, I want to go back to how this actually helped you and how you actually found one and all that stuff. But my brain is just going, the one thing that I keep coming to hearing your explanation, and that was an amazing explanation, by the way, for lay people, I can tell you’re an engineer or so. The system where you’re talking about going all the way to the capillaries, I heart disease is the number one killer, right? And we have, I think a lot of it is the chronic inflammation that you’re talking about, but. Obviously once that process is already done, you’re describing how the capillaries can’t get any red blood cells. So to me, it would make perfect sense that this might be not only did it help you in your disease process with Lyme disease and the arthritis and everything, but it seems like it would be pretty amazing for cardiovascular patients or people that don’t have good blood flow, like that on top of the mitochondrial benefit. Brad Pitzele (27:41)Hmm It’s actually, we are helping folks with everything from autoimmunity, cancer, Lyme, long COVID, chronic fatigue, Parkinson’s, heart disease, so many things, because if you can turn off the inflammation and you can give the body energy to heal, it will do just amazing things. That was kind of like the shocking thing to me when I first got into it. was like, wait a second. Like every time I was treating myself as a pin cushion and trying something new, I always had to the question like, what if this doesn’t work? and like what damage could I be doing? know, because there were things that were a little bit risky to be quite honest, where I found out risks, you know, a little bit too late for my liking. But this was one where was like, it’s oxygen. And like, so it was kind of shocking when I started looking at the benefits and I was like, this is kind of crazy that we’re talking about something as simple as oxygen with all these health benefits. But yeah, we’ve had folks with all sorts of different chronic cardiovascular conditions Cheryl McColgan (28:31)Right. Brad Pitzele (28:48)Now, there’s a lot of health benefits to it, but the other crazy thing about oxygen is there’s all these athletic performance benefits. And this is important because directly to your cardiovascular component, which is actually a lot of Olympic teams have used EWAT to improve their athletic performance. because athletic teams are very science driven, there’s some really good research on it showing it improves VO2 max, reduces recovery time. improves short-term memory, it improves power output, et cetera. And all of this is really due to being able to fuel our cells and our muscles more, and also helping clear out all that metabolic waste, because that metabolic waste primarily develops when you have a shortage of oxygen when you’re exercising. Cheryl McColgan (29:34)Amazing that something so simple could be so hugely beneficial. So once you finally saw this, you’re like, Werber knew this about cancer and this guy’s onto this exercise with oxygen thing. Like, well, how do you do it? Where do you get it? Like nobody’s ever seen this before. I think like you’re saying the athletic teams might have it and stuff, but I mean, I’ve certainly never been anywhere where I’ve seen like, hey, get EWOT therapy here. So how did you find it? Brad Pitzele (29:56)Yeah, it’s really, really kind of a rare thing. 15 years ago, it was incredibly rare. There really wasn’t anywhere to go. You could find it occasionally. You might find it in a chiropractor’s office here or there or some sort of recovery clinic. Nowadays, they’re more widespread. So there are places that do it, doctors, chiropractors. But for me, there were a couple of folks selling it, but they were… I didn’t have a whole lot of faith. There was no customer reviews. was no customers talking about it on chat. It was just them as the company and they, a lot of them spoke in superlatives and like marketing speak that it just didn’t make me feel really comfortable. And they were very expensive too. you know, they were maybe the cheapest was 5,000 and the most expensive one I saw was 25,000. and it was this kind of cross hatch of I didn’t have confidence and geez, that’s a lot of money for this next experiment when the last Cheryl McColgan (30:31)yeah. Brad Pitzele (30:49)26 behind me didn’t do anything or 57 or whatever it was. So that’s when I kind of decided, did a little bit more research and decided I was going to try to build my own. Cheryl McColgan (31:00)Yeah, was thinking that I was like, I was an engineer, the next thing would be like, can I just build this? So that’s what you did, obviously, right? Brad Pitzele (31:06)I did it out of necessity because I just didn’t have faith. I built my own. didn’t think it was, I’ll be honest, I didn’t think this was gonna be my solution. Nothing else was. And I started doing it and… You know, slowly but surely I started to walk out of that basement, that proverbial basement. I just kept taking steps up and up. At first it was subtle and then it was kind of all at once sort of thing where I was shocked. You know, was like things like, my gosh, my brain fog’s gone. I’m like focusing in a meeting or I just got down on the floor and played with the kids and I don’t need to lay in bed for two days in pain. And you know, slowly but surely I just felt better and better. And it wasn’t until I saw that same doctor again, and he was like, wow, you’re like a year later. And he was like, wow, you’re so much better. What did you do? And I told him, and he’s like, wow, would you consider selling them to my patients? And that was kind of the, you know, jumping off point where I was like, well, gosh, yeah, maybe we could help other people with this. Cheryl McColgan (32:04)Yeah, that’s awesome. I’m so glad, you know, it’s, it’s, it’s always an interesting thing on podcasts because sometimes you get, I think not on this particular podcast, but other ones, it’s like people that kind of are just selling stuff, you know, or snake oil things or whatever. But what I really love is when there are people that, you know, had their own health problem, they dive into the research, they try it all there, use themselves as an experiment as a pin cushion, as you said, and then they find something that actually works. And then they they make it so that they can share it with everybody else. don’t just keep it to yourself, because I’m sure it kind of felt like a miracle at the time if something finally worked for you. Brad Pitzele (32:41)You know, it really was. I was, because the hardest part is also when you’re in these groups and you’re talking to all these other folks and they’re like, oh, try this, nothing worked and then this worked. And you try that thing and it didn’t work. You you try 57 other different things, as I was saying, and you kind of just start losing any hope. You’re like, I don’t think, I think I’m just that case that there’s nothing that’s going to work. But yeah, when you do find it, it’s, yeah, it’s obviously life changing, even having hope and like, I always tell folks like when you’re really sick, it’s not about, you wanna get to 100%, like 100 % is amazing, it’s the dream we all have when we’re sick, but. more important than 100 % is like feeling better this week than last week or this month than last month because at some point when you’re in it, you just lose a lot of hope and it becomes kind of this like the spiral downward that you just don’t believe in anything and it just lowers you spiritually I just say. And having something to know like, hey, Yeah, it still kinda stinks, but like, remember a month ago it was worse, and so like, now you’re like, yeah, I can’t wait to see how I’m gonna be two months from now, you know, or where am gonna be by this summer sort of thing? Like, it was, it’s kinda the exact opposite. It’s kinda like this hope spiral, if you will. Cheryl McColgan (33:55)Yeah. Well, it’s kind of that’s something that I think it’s good to point out for people too, is that, you you mentioned there is all this research on this. There’s a lot of good science to back up mitochondrial health, that’s kind of mitochondrial health is kind of a long game. And it’s kind of something that you have to continually do not over, you know, just a few days and you’re going to feel so much better. It’s week after week, month after month, the more that you support your mitochondrial health, the more chance you have of really feeling better. So it’s not just this thing where you can try it for a week and you’re like, that doesn’t work. You have to keep up on it for a while, right? Brad Pitzele (34:24)Yeah. Yeah, you’re absolutely right in general speaking. mean, we have… people come to me and they ask like, how long am I going to have to do this for? I tell them is, I can’t say how long until you get to the top of the mountain, so to speak, but I find that most folks who get to the top of the mountain, they feel so good when they do it, they don’t ever want to stop. And some of those folks never really exercised, they hated it, but now they’re like, it’s like 15 minutes, I do it three or five times a week, and I feel amazing, so why wouldn’t I do it? And we talked about that capillary thinning, Cheryl McColgan (34:52)Mm-hmm. Brad Pitzele (34:58)That’s actually a chronic thing that happens to all of us in Western society. And so this is something that’s anti-aging at that very kind of cellular level. So I recommend it for folks, but. I guess for me when I was really sick, always say one of the hardest parts was the ceremony is this what they call them. Counting pills every night, doing this protocol, doing that protocol. You keep adding, like if there’s 10 more minutes in your day, you add 10 more minutes of some protocol that you’re hoping will make you feel better. And then you get to a point where you realize you’re spending six hours of your day, you know, just all you’re doing is these protocols and it just becomes overwhelming. like, even if I felt better, what’s the purpose of all I’m doing is going from from the sauna to the this and I’m doing this pill and I’m doing that. And that’s kind of the, what I found, one of the things I really loved about EWOD was it was something I could do consistently in my home, 15 minutes a day. And it helps with your mitochondrial health. It helps with detoxification. It helps with energy. So it’s like, multiple, it’s kind of multifaceted in the way it benefits you. relatively short period of time. Cheryl McColgan (36:07)Yeah, and you mentioned, and I want to be respectful of your time. know we’re kind of getting a little bit long here, but one of the other things when in respect to mitochondrial health is red light therapy. And there’s also a ton of great research on that. And so I kind of wasn’t surprised when I went to your website that that’s something that you also got into. I mean, I think that’s when you look at the number and the breadth of research on that, I think it’s pretty undeniable that it is good for people that serves a real purpose, that it does help the mitochondria. So at what point, Brad Pitzele (36:34)Yeah. Cheryl McColgan (36:35)after you found the EWAT, I’m assuming you kind of got on this mitochondrial health thing and then maybe stumbled into that stuff. that how it went or is there something else? Brad Pitzele (36:44)Yeah, I started looking at it early on, probably about six months after I was doing EWOT, four to six months right in there I’d say, I started doing Red Light. So you’re right, there’s like tens of thousands of peer-reviewed research studies out there and what it does. They work really interestingly together. Because we mentioned EWAT, when you do it, you increase the supply of oxygen massively, right? It’s a day of oxygen in 15 minutes. So you’re flooding your body with oxygen. And then if you do red light immediately afterwards, what it does is the way it primarily works is it increases oxygen demand in your mitochondria. So it forces the mitochondria to suck up more oxygen. And when they do that, they produce more energy. So any of the research you read on red light whether skin health collagen growth bone mental, brain health, me, athletic recovery performance, healing in general, it all comes from the same thing, is that it’s just forcing our mitochondria to suck up more oxygen and produce more energy. So if you compare those two, you compare them at the same time, you first drive a massive increase in supply of oxygen, and then you increase the mitochondrial demand for it, and so you get this kind of one-two punch. The interesting thing is why I think we need it in today’s society as well is we’re actually deficient on red and near infrared light. And the reason is, if you look at the sun, the sun is full spectrum. has everything from ultraviolet and the blues through the reds and the near infrareds. So when you go outside and it changes throughout the day, early and late in the day, you get more of those reds and near infrareds. And at high noon, you get more of the blues. unfortunately, or fortunately, however you want to look at it, over time as as ⁓ species, we’ve moved indoors and we started using indoor lighting primarily and we spend more and more time there. And then more recently, we’ve switched from incandescent to LED lighting. Now, LED lighting is very energy efficient and one of ways they make it incredibly energy efficient is they take out all the reds and the near infrareds that we experience as heat because obviously you don’t want your lighting to heat your room. You don’t want it to, everyone sees that as energy. waste and to that extent you’re trying to use it for lighting it can be. However, that puts us in a place where we spend a lot of time bathed in blue lights and not really getting enough of the reds and the other parts of the spectrum. Cheryl McColgan (39:27)Yeah, that’s another interesting rabbit hole for people to go down if they haven’t already is just the, you know, changing out some of the lighting in your home or using specific lighting for certain scenarios, like in your bedroom and towards night as you’re getting ready to go to sleep. But anyway, I just want to clarify one quick point there, because I’m envisioning, that was actually what I was envisioning when you started talking about the synergy between red light and the EWAT. So do you like do your EWAT with the red light panel like in front of you or do you just do it right after? Brad Pitzele (39:53)Yeah. I prefer to do it right after. The challenge with doing it right on you is to get the best benefit from red light. Red light works on something called a biphasic dose response, fancy science term, which just means the benefits over time look like a bell curve. So too little, you won’t get any benefit. There’s kind of like a just right where you get peak benefit. And then if you do more, it starts diminishing in benefit. It doesn’t harm. It’s just a waste of time, right? So you spent five more minutes to get less sort of thing. Cheryl McColgan (40:21)Mm-hmm. Brad Pitzele (40:22)with exercising in red light is one, I like to get as much skin exposure as possible so you’re hitting as many mitochondria as possible. And two is you’re moving. So sometimes you’re close to the light, sometimes you’re further away. And so you’re not really able to kind of measure that dose effectively to get inside that biphasic kind of peak zone. Cheryl McColgan (40:43)Okay, no, that makes a ton of sense. Although I still am going to put this out to you that, maybe you put at least on, you know, the little face mask while you’re exercising. I feel like you can attach it to the oxygen part, you know, and just put a red light around it. Maybe that’s a little too, maybe that’s a little too much. But anyway, well, Brad, this has been so wonderful. And I just appreciate you so much sharing your whole journey and then how you came to find this. Brad Pitzele (40:51)There you go. It makes yours waterproof. That’d be fun. Cheryl McColgan (41:09)If people want to connect with you online or learn more about EWOT and learn more about Red Light, where’s the best place that they can find you and connect with you? Brad Pitzele (41:17)Yeah, go to 1000roads.com slash Cheryl and we have a great offer for your listeners. They can check out. You can also ⁓ go to our YouTube channel. put out weekly videos. 1000roads, HQ is our channel. It’s all spelled out, O-N-E-T-H-O-U-S-A-N-D-R-O-A-D-S.com. Cheryl McColgan (41:25)Awesome. Okay, awesome, and all that will be in the show notes for everyone, so don’t feel like you have to write it down. But Brad, again, thank you so much for coming and sharing your knowledge today, and I really appreciate it. Brad Pitzele (41:46)Thank you so much, Cheryl.

In this video, Landry Bobo explains how cyclists can optimise their VO₂ max training based on their rider type. Not all VO₂ max workouts work the same for every athlete—sprinters and punchy riders often respond better to shorter intervals like 30/15s or 40/20s, while more aerobically strong riders such as climbers or time trialists may see greater gains from longer efforts like 5×5 or 4×8 intervals. Landry breaks down how to identify whether you're more anaerobically or aerobically dominant and how choosing the right VO₂ max workout can help maximise performance and better prepare for racing.

This audio overview, titled "Raise Your Ceiling or Raise the Roof," provides a deep dive into the Athletic Architecture model used by QT2 Systems to determine an athlete's ideal training focus. The episode explores the critical relationship between an athlete's sustainable threshold - their "ceiling" - and their absolute high-end capacity - their "roof". The discussion centers on how the ratio between Critical Power/Speed and power/speed at VO2 Max defines an athlete's physiological state and dictates which of two primary training paths will offer the highest return on training investment: Raising the Ceiling: The hosts explain that for athletes in an Anaerobic physiological state (ratio < 85%), the "attic space" is too large. In these cases, the priority is a Build/TH block designed to lift the ceiling closer to the roof, making more of the athlete's existing capacity usable for longer durations. Raising the Roof: Conversely, for athletes in an Aerobic physiological state (ratio > 88%), the "attic" has become a "crawl space," meaning the ceiling is pushed right against the roof. The hosts discuss how a VO2 Max block can be used as a targeted intervention to lift the absolute upper limit, thereby creating the necessary physical space for the threshold to grow in the future. Throughout the overview, the hosts emphasize the importance of intentional training. By using testing data to identify whether an athlete needs to focus on their sustainable potential (the ceiling) or their absolute capacity (the roof), coaches can avoid a "scattershot approach" and ensure that resources are not wasted training energy systems that are already well-developed. The episode concludes by reviewing how these physiological decisions fit into a broader framework that also considers practical factors like injury history and race proximity. *This audio overview is AI-generated off of QT2 Systems' knowledge-base of source materials.

I haven't done a solo podcast in a while. Strength and age- resistance training - which leads me to women and strength. Resistancetraining Trump's aerobics.  Which brings me to the BBM Kettlebell methodology - something I always knew but I nowhave the biometrics to prove it. Aerobicand Anaerobic.  Almost Identical – slightly more Anaerobic than Aerobic and my boxing/kickboxing workouts are just the opposite.   The New Year is upon us. I'm not a big “New Year's Resolution” type of guy. But this past year was enlightening for many reasons. My goal is to help others to Live Better Longer. I have had the great fortune of listening to and learning from others. My studies and experiences have helpedme attain success at what I love doing most. Sharing my experiences and knowledge with others is my way of paying it forward. So, if you're interested in learning what I gained from this year, please keep listening.  We need to look at the aspects of our life- business/ financial, family/home and personal relationships, state of our fitness and health.  Intermittent fasting: daily - autophagy - 12-17 hours, 24, 36, 48, 60 and 72 hours.  Fasting stages progress from using food energy (0-4 hrs) to breaking down stored sugar(glycogen) for fuel (4-12 hrs), then burning fat (12-24+ hrs) as glucosedepletes, leading into ketosis (24+ hrs) where the liver produces ketones forenergy, with deeper benefits like cellular cleanup (autophagy) emerging after24-48+ hours, shifting your body from sugar-burning to fat-burning for fuel. Fasting Stages by Hour ●    0-4 Hours (Fed State): Your body digests food,uses glucose for immediate energy, releases insulin, and stores excess asglycogen. ●    4-12 Hours (Glycogen Depletion): Insulin drops, and yourbody starts breaking down stored glycogen (sugar) for energy. ●    12-16 Hours (Fat Burning Begins): Glycogen is low,prompting the body to release stored fat (lipolysis) for fuel, entering earlyfat-burning mode. ●    16-24 Hours (Entering Ketosis): The body significantlyramps up fat burning, producing ketones as an alternative fuel, especially forthe brain. ●    24-48+ Hours (Ketosis & Autophagy): Full ketosis isestablished, and the body burns fat exclusively; autophagy (cellular cleanup)begins to increase. ●    48-72+ Hours (Deep Fasting): Deeper benefits likeenhanced autophagy, significant growth hormone increases, and potential immunesystem regeneration may occur. Key Metabolic Shifts ●    Insulin Drops: Blood sugar levels fall, signaling the body to stop storing fatand start releasing it. ●     ●    Glycogenolysis: Breakdown of stored sugar in the liver and muscles. ●     ●    Lipolysis: Breakdown of fat into fatty acids. ●     ●    Ketogenesis: The liver converts fatty acids into ketones for energy. ●     ●    Autophagy: Cellular repair and recycling process that gets activatedduring fasting.

OVERVIEWAnaerobic capacity is the work you can do above your lactate threshold. Another term for it is Functional Reserve Capacity (FRC), and it acts like a battery that contains a finite amount of energy that runs out quickly and must be recharged before a subsequent use. FRC is your high-intensity, explosive power for winning sprints, creating breakaways, closing gaps, and riding competitors off your wheel. In the final episode in this series with WKO Data Leader and Coach Tim Cusick, Tim and CTS Coach Adam Pulford discuss what FRC is, how to train it, the consequences of focusing on FRC (you may have to sacrifice some FTP for it), and therefore when and how much FRC work to incorporate into your training plan.Topics Covered In This Episode:Definitions of anaerobic capacity and functional reserve capacity (FRC)Anaerobic Capacity adaptation from 1-2 weeks of trainingAnaerobic Capacity adaptation from 2-5 weeks of trainingWhy FRC training intensities must be SUPER HARD!Recommended interval workouts for FRC trainingWhen to incorporate FRC workouts into your trainingResourcesTim at Basecamp: https://www.joinbasecamp.com/tim-cusick Tim on IG https://www.instagram.com/tim.cusick_coach/Stress vs Strain: Difference Between Stress and Strain - GeeksforGeeks https://www.geeksforgeeks.org/physics/difference-between-stress-and-strain/Guest Bio:Tim Cusick is a world-class cycling coach, a leader in data analytics for endurance sports, an educator, and an innovative business leader.

On this episode of the Flex Diet Podcast, I'm joined once again by Dr. Phil Batterson to nerd out on one of my favorite topics: anaerobic metabolism. We dig into what's really happening during high-intensity training, the role of lactate, and why much of the “anaerobic vs. aerobic” discussion you hear is oversimplified (or just plain wrong).We also get into the nuts and bolts of how your bioenergetic systems adapt, why cardio equipment can actually be a powerful training tool, and where metabolic carts fit into the picture. Along the way, Phil drops practical examples you can use to better understand your own performance. If you want a clear, science-backed breakdown of anaerobic training without the fluff, this episode is for you.Sponsors:LMNT electrolyte drink mix: https://drinklmnt.com/Get your rower and assault bike at Rouge https://miket.me/rogueAvailable now:Grab a copy of the Triphasic Training II book I co-wrote with Cal Deitz here.Episode Chapters:04:58 Personal Updates and Business Insights12:37 Anaerobic vs. Aerobic Metabolism Discussion15:00 Training Techniques and Adaptations21:07 Challenges in Hybrid Training24:43 Exploring the ATP-PC System33:59 Introduction to Bioenergetic Systems34:05 Understanding Energy Systems in Exercise34:35 The Role of ATP and Phosphocreatine35:08 Intensity and Energy System Utilization35:46 Fatigue and Muscle Contraction36:38 Misconceptions in Exercise Physiology37:42 Lactate and Its Role in Exercise40:18 High-Intensity Training Adaptations41:46 VO2 Max and Training Protocols42:40 Balancing Aerobic and Anaerobic Training43:58 Effective Training Strategies55:00 Heart Rate and Performance Metrics01:00:07 Lactate: Myths and Realities01:09:30 Buffering Capacity and Adaptations01:16:03 BFR Bands and Intense Workouts01:16:38 The Importance of Cardiovascular Training for Lifters01:17:21 Debunking Myths About Cardiac Development01:18:04 Anaerobic and Aerobic Training Insights01:18:47 Effective Aerobic Training Strategies01:19:42 Maintaining VO2 Max with Minimal Effort01:20:12 Mitochondrial Function and Effective Workouts01:20:49 Where to Find Dr. Phil Batterson01:24:13 VO2 Max Testing and Interpretation01:28:42 Challenges in Lactate Threshold Testing01:39:00 Dynamic Range and Performance01:44:59 Conclusion and Final ThoughtsFlex Diet Podcasts You May Enjoy: Episode 264: Finding Your Aerobic Sweet Spot for Peak Health with Dr Phil BattersonYouTube: https://youtu.be/5j90cmi_I6k Episode 275: Mastering Combat Sports Conditioning Using Advanced Training Techniques with Strength Coach James TognariniYouTube: https://youtu.be/t9Hc-VrsY4kConnect with Dr Phil Batterson:Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/drphilbatterson/Get In Touch with Dr Mike:Instagram: DrmiketnelsonYouTube: @flexdietcertEmail: Miketnelson.com/contact-us

Most runners are accidentally avoiding the exact training that would make them fastest.If you've ever wondered why your training feels hard but race day still falls short, this episode connects the dots. I break down the difference between Zone 2, threshold, and VO₂ Max so you can finally see how they work together instead of against each other. The right balance isn't about running more miles or suffering through every session—it's about understanding which gears to use and when. You'll learn how to train smarter, avoid wasted effort, and unlock the kind of fitness that makes race pace feel easier than you thought possible.Key TakeawaysTraining zones like Zone 2, threshold, and VO₂ Max each play a unique role in how fast and strong you can race.Formulas and guesswork often get your zones wrong, which can leave you undertrained, overtrained, or stuck in the gray zone.Knowing your real threshold unlocks smarter workouts that actually improve speed and endurance without burning you out.Timestamps[00:12] What You'll Learn[00:52] The Difference Between Zone Two Threshold and Vo Two Max[01:25] Zone 2: The Foundation of Aerobic Base Building[02:10] Run Science Nerd Break: Threshold Fun Facts[03:30] Defining Vo2 Max and Why It's So Important[04:03] Run Science Nerd Break - Aerobic vs Anaerobic[05:26] Use This Free Training Plan to Improve Your Threshold[06:16] My Vo2 Max Lactate Threshold Test Results[07:51] Why This All Matters For Runners[08:12] You Don't Have To Train Your Threshold[09:26] How I'm Training After The Test[10:16] Finish Line Thoughts: Did Maffetone Help Or Hurt Me Over the Last 13 Years?Links & Learnings

Welcome back to BFR Radio, and to the next episode in our aerobic BFR training series. In this episode, we explore a fascinating 4-week study that combines repeated sprint training with BFR cuffs in university-level basketball players.

This is the 13th and final episoe in our hard to kill programming series, and we are finishing the the very high intense, mixed modal anaerobic training. 

Can you really train for speed and endurance at the same time? Here's what the science says... TLDR -- both/kinda?!In this episode, we dive into the science of aerobic and anaerobic fitness, debunk myths about lactic acid, and explain why “thresholds” are more gray zone than clear-cut.Learn how to set goals that fit your life, train more effectively, and stop overthinking the data from your gadgets. Whether you're just starting out or looking to level up, this episode has practical tips to improve your running without burning out.Timestamps[00:00] Introduction: Can you train for speed and endurance at the same time?[02:08] Balancing aerobic and anaerobic fitness: Myth or reality?[04:27] Simplifying aerobic vs. anaerobic energy systems for runners.[06:08] Explaining lactic buildup and its effect on performance.[08:34] Common issues with tracking metrics and gadgets.[10:00] Why setting goals is critical before diving into data.[11:45] The problem with relying on smartwatch metrics for training.[12:30] Wrap-up: Final thoughts on balancing effort and tracking progress.Key TakeawaysBalancing Aerobic and Anaerobic Fitness: You can train for both speed and endurance by incorporating short sprints and VO2 max efforts without compromising your aerobic base—just keep the intensity controlled and strategic.The Gray Zone Explained: Aerobic and anaerobic training aren't black-and-white; they operate in a continuum. Understanding how lactic acid builds and recycles can help you train smarter and improve efficiency.Focus Over Metrics: Gadgets and heart rate monitors are helpful tools but often misinterpreted. Defining your goals and aligning your training with your lifestyle are far more critical than relying on data alone.Links & Learnings

In this show, I break down and analyze comments from my recent interview with one of the greatest female middle distance runners in the world, the American record holder Shelby Houlihan. It was a pleasure to drive up to Flagstaff, Arizona to meet Shelby at her high altitude training camp as she prepares for her long awaited comeback after a ridiculous four year suspension for a very questionable doping violation. In our interview, which you can listen to here (or click below under "links"), we talked about the tragedy she experienced when she had her career taken from her right in the middle of her prime, right as she was getting ready for the Olympics—then having to sit for four years. You will learn about the nuances of how that whole incident went down and the injustice of the anti-doping system in the world of elite sports. Of course we have to keep these sports clean, but can there be room for some imperfections and some victims too? You will also hear about the many aspects of what it's like to be an elite athlete, how Shelby expanded her horizons and her competitive disposition to try to become a more well-balanced person by getting her master's degree in sports psychology, and much more. Shelby said such amazing, thoughtful comments during the interview, and I think so many of her comments are truly profound insights that will help you as you navigate the very difficult challenge of designing an optimal training program that balances stress and rest (and also keeping your ego in check) as you pursue ambitious competitive goals. These big picture insights are especially helpful now, as the biohacking scene is currently getting a little out of hand—focusing on a regimented, high-tech, glossy, glitzy approach towards pursuing longevity, instead of just covering the basics—and the Blue Zones movement is getting torched by The New York Times’ revelation of the manipulation behind their messaging and how they drew inaccurate conclusions from the data they gathered. It all comes down to basics and consistency, so this show will highlight important insights about Shelby’s approach, from details of her weekly training patterns to how she is deliberate about what she does to unwind and rest during the off competitive season, and how she generally balances the physiological impact training has on her body.

In today's episode we first start by talking about when you learn how to train at the appropriate level, you can change your training for the BETTER. And when you fuel and hydrate around your long runs, your performance will SOAR. Then we end with three components of a great training plan. www.trainmk.com/links

If you've ever been near a farm with livestock, you might agree that farm odors can be carried far from the farm itself. Farms often face criticism from nearby residents over the offensive odor of manure. While manure is an unavoidable part of raising livestock, there is one technological innovation that can remove the smell from manure. Anaerobic digesters are a simple concept—instead of leaving manure rotting outside, the digester encloses the manure as bacteria decompose it, keeping the odor in. But could the same technology also deal with food waste and cut carbon emissions? How do Anaerobic Digesters work?Anaerobic Digesters leverage the biology of decomposition to turn organic waste including manure and food scraps into useful products. The digestion process starts with pumping the waste into the digester, an enclosed tank containing microorganisms in the absence of air, hence the term anaerobic. In this digestor, a diverse community of different bacterial types ferment and feed off the waste in tandem with each other. First, bacterial hydrolysis breaks down large complex molecules like cellulose and carbohydrates into simpler forms that other bacteria can use. Acidogenic bacteria produce carbon dioxide, hydrogen, ammonia, and volatile fatty acids that are converted into acetic acid by acetogenic bacteria. Finally methanogenic bacteria take in these products to release methane and carbon dioxide. At the end of the process, the disgestor is left with biogas including methane and carbon dioxide, leftover solids called solid digestate, and leftover liquids called liquid digestate. Owners of digesters can aid these bacterial processes by adding water, heat, and supplemental nutrients, minerals, and pH buffers to keep the right conditions for fermentation. A farmer wanting to install anaerobic digesters will need to choose between many different forms of digesters that can suit different farm types. A major consideration is the solid content of the input waste, also called feedstock, which affects how difficult it is to mix and to heat, both of which keep fermentation going.  If the feedstock is more solid and difficult to mix, then it must be either diluted with water which requires more heat, or used with a digester that can handle more solid material, usually with less mixing. While the decision to install a digestor is a complex one, farmers can enjoy numerous benefits from having one on the farm.Why Choose a Digester?An anaerobic digester can be a source of money from the sale of its valuable products. In addition to trapping odor, digesters also hold biogas, and the deodorized end products, called digestate, all of which can be sold. Solid digestate can be repurposed as bedding for livestock or nutrient-rich soil material. Liquid digestate can be used around the farm as a fertilizer for crops. Biogas is a versatile alternative fuel that can be purified and used for cooking and heating, condensed and used for vehicle fuel, or burned and used as electricity. These products can bring in extra profit for farmers, and even before the digestion takes place, grocery stores and other companies that produce food waste will pay farmers to digest their waste. In addition to the economic incentives to digesters, they are also a climate solution. When food and manure decompose outside or in landfills, they release large quantities of methane into the air. Methane is an extremely potent greenhouse gas, and though it stays in the atmosphere for a shorter amount of time than carbon dioxide, it traps so much heat that it is 80 times as potent as CO2 over a 20 year period. If methane is captured and burned instead, it turns into CO2, a much less potent greenhouse gas. In this way, burning methane trapped from digesters still releases greenhouse gasses, but these glasses lead to much less warming compared to letting the methane escape into the atmosphere. In addition, burning biogas for energy production gives us a naturally occurring and renewable source of energy, which can help make up for energy demands from switching away from fossil fuels. Biogas can be a promising waste management, energy and climate change solution. Digester DrawbacksThough digesters can provide many benefits to farmers and serve as a valuable climate solution, there are great controversies over promoting them. Dairy farms are often located near environmental justice (EJ) communities, which are disproportionately impacted by pollution and often home to people of color and low income. These communities face the brunt of impacts from dairy farms, including respiratory issues, poor water quality, and air pollution from burning biogas.  Funding dairy farms for producing biogas from manure could extend the lifetimes of dairy farms, prolonging these negative impacts. Industrial agriculture has been criticized for its high environmental impact, and because large industrial farms have the capital to install digesters, opponents argue that funding biogas will benefit industrial farms over small farms. These myriad environmental issues raise questions about if funding biogas made from digesters will lead to more harm to human health in already vulnerable communities. This debate reveals how complex the web of stakeholders in digesters really is, and that presenting biogas as a “silver bullet” oversimplifies the considerations that go into policies around anaerobic digesters. The Future of DigestersIf digesters are so beneficial for farmers, why aren't digesters common practice on farms? One of the biggest barriers is that digesters are extremely expensive to install, and can take a while to pay back for their costs. According to the EPA, a typical anaerobic digester on the farm costs about $1.2 million, and this number varies based on the size of the farm and type of digester. However, there are many avenues for farmers to get funding to be able to afford this technology. The USDA and EPA manage lists of funders and other resources that farmers can refer to. Federal policies also provide assistance with funding, including the recent Inflation Reduction Act, which offers tax reductions for investing in biogas. According to Brett Rienford, who manages a dairy farm with a digester, one key policy yet to be ruled on that could favor biogas producers is the EPA's proposed policy for eRINs (credits produced when qualifying biogas is used to generate renewable electricity).The eRIN policy has to do with tradable credits that are generated by creating or using renewable fuels. Under the EPA's current Renewable Fuel Standard, these credits, called RINs or Renewable Identification Numbers, are generated by liquid biofuel producers. The proposed addition to the standard would allow producers of electric vehicles to generate electric RINs, or eRINs, if they purchased electricity made from biogas. The biogas industry lobbied against this, stating instead that the biogas producers themselves should generate eRINs that they can then sell, similar to liquid biofuel producers under the current rule. Because of this debate, the EPA has deferred a decision till a later date. If modified, the policy could greatly benefit biogas producers and bring in extra income for farmers with digesters. Regardless of the outcome, this policy reveals the complex stakeholders invested in policies surrounding biogas, and the acknowledgement of biogas as a major source of renewable energy.About the guestBrett Reinford is a manager and second generation dairy farmer at Reinford Farms. He helped shift the farm to using an anaerobic digester for manure, and the farm has since expanded to providing solutions for food waste from grocery stores. Reinford Farms is a leader in terms of on-farm anaerobic digesters, and Reinford advocates for the adoption of digesters on farms. Reinford holds a bachelor's degree in business management from Colorado Christian University.  Further ReadingReinford Farms: How We Make PowerEPA: How Does Anaerobic Digestion Work?American Biogas Council: Digester Biology and TypesEPA: Anaerobic System Design and TechnologyResourcesEnvironmental and Energy Study Institute: Biogas Fact SheetEPA: Inflation Reduction Act Biogas ProvisionsEPA: Digester Project Planning and FinancingClimate Solutions Law: Proposed eRIN RulesEP: Understanding Global Warming PotentialMIT: Natural Gas Contribution to Climate Change For a transcript of this episode, please visit https://climatebreak.org/converting-food-waste-into-energy-through-anaerobic-digestion-with-brett-reinford/

Dr. James Andrews interview. Baseball is a development game. High School pitchers, when stress of the UCL is initiated 80 mph, danger zone 85 mph, UCL can tear at any moment 90 mph. Genetics play a role in the strength of the UCL (former MLB pitcher's son for example. Showcase baseball, ban radar guns from high school down to younger levels. Max effort throwing with heavy balls and baseballs, max effort long toss. Dr. Meister interview. Manipulation of the baseball to create new designer pitches, Dr. Meister can look at MRI and see what pitches are being manipulated based on the type of tears. Elbow positioning - this research has been around for over 30 years. Birmingham clinic DR. Andrews and Dr. Fleisig. At proper elbow position, at foot strike, 90 degrees shoulder abduction and 90 degrees elbow flexion. Allows for proper external/internal rotation. When shoulder works correctly there is less stress on the elbow. Jim Curnal shows this through pics of pitchers at foot strike. Prime movers are prime movers and stabilizers are stabilizers should be the focus. Hip Mobility - Baseball Flows Max Effort Throwing - The lost art of pitching. The built in safety valves (both mental and physical have been circumvented. Modern pitchers (throwers) are trained to bust through the barricade, instead of improving movement patterns and improving rhythm and timing to eliminate these barricades, ex. Hinge the front hip in order to get through the hip, create extension out front then rotate the trunk. All conversations that assess individual pitches to pitchers' success (Pitch Ninja video analysis) does not provide answers for what makes a successful pitcher. We compare pitches and relate it to success but we don't realize that a pitchers' combination of pitches is the package for success. Developing pitchers who can pitch is difficult. The technology shows us the result but who can teach the how to a variety individuals? Justin Orenduff - 94% of HOF pitchers went overhead with their hands. He calls it rhythmic cadence. Nolan Ryan often stated when he was struggling that he had to find his rhythm and timing. Koufax - levers in proper position. Gallo - transitions. Rooney - TripleSpin We have eliminate this to eliminate rhythm and timing problems (which has had the reverse result). We have taken the athleticism out of the pitcher. The difference between guys who can research, guys who can teach and guys who did it TC - chiropractic medicine story. My rehab from fractured neck and facial nerve damage.

When it comes to heart rate training, your maximum heart rate is far less important than knowing your anaerobic threshold heart rate. Most of the time, I don't care what a fighter's max heart rate is. But it's vital I know their anaerobic threshold heart rate… Was that a hard training session?  Your heart will tell you – if you know what you're doing! Testing for, and training based on your anaerobic threshold heart rate (your maximal sustainable pace) is the secret to knowing if your Muay Thai or cardio conditioning session was easy, moderate, or high intensity. Training at a pace above your anaerobic threshold is high intensity, at this pace is moderate, and below it is easy. In this video I discuss how to test your anaerobic threshold and how to use this information both in your training and to win fights! This is boosting your fight IQ by weaponising your energy systems conditioning.
