Podcasts about sleep quality

Dr. Dylan Petkus is on a mission to help educate and empower those with sleep apnea and other sleep issues to live fuller, healthier lives. Dr. Petkus knows firsthand the frustration of CPAPs and the daily struggles of brain fog, exhaustion, and the range of issues related to sleep apnea. Motivated by his struggles with sleep apnea, Dr. Petkus embarked on a multi-year-long research journey to uncover a different way to address sleep apnea.Dr. Petkus' innovative approach to sleep apnea is simple and effective. He discovered that snoring and sleep apnea can be addressed by simply restoring the body's natural breathing pattern. Now, he is eager to share this approach with the millions struggling with sleep apnea, snoring, and poor sleep. This way, people can wake up refreshed without relying on a CPAP, mouthguards, or invasive surgical proceduresbDr. Petkus earned his Master of Science in Physiology at Pennsylvania State University, where he was awarded a research fellowship and was a peer-reviewed and published author.  He earned his Master's in Public Health and Medical Degree from the University of Miami Miller School of Medicine.  Thereafter, he attended a residency in Family Medicine to help patients on the front line of chronic disease.  Now, he helps people worldwide through education and coaching to overcome sleep apnea.

Summary: In this conversation, PJ and Joey Morin explore the intricate relationship between psychology and exercise, discussing how mental states can influence physical performance. They delve into the limits of human strength, the consequences of heavy lifting, and the importance of recovery techniques, including sleep and biohacking methods. The discussion also covers effective workout strategies, the science behind rep ranges, and the role of genetics in muscle development. Additionally, they touch on the controversial topic of peptides and their impact on athletic performance, as well as the benefits of altitude training for enhancing VO2 max.Takeaways: The human body has built-in mechanisms that limit strength to prevent injury.Optimal arousal states can enhance performance in strength training.Heavy lifting can lead to long-term joint and tendon issues.Recovery methods vary in effectiveness; personal experimentation is key.Sleep quality is more important than quantity for recovery.Different individuals have unique responses to various workout strategies.Rep ranges can influence muscle growth, but personal experimentation is essential.Genetics play a significant role in muscle development and training outcomes.Peptides may not be considered 'natural' but can aid recovery.Altitude training can significantly improve VO2 max and overall performance.Chapters00:00 Introduction to Biohacking and Personal Background02:28 Eddie Hall's Deadlift and the Role of Biohacking03:24 The Limits of Human Strength and Brain Mechanisms06:10 Superhuman Feats and the Power of Belief10:13 The Consequences of Heavy Lifting and Steroid Use15:35 Injury Recovery and Biohacking Benefits15:52 Comparing Recovery Methods: Saunas, Red Light, and Cupping18:58 Hot Showers and Circulation for Muscle Recovery20:25 Sleep Quality vs. Quantity for Recovery21:12 Exploring Cardio and VO2 Max24:11 Effective Workout Strategies for Different Goals24:58 Understanding Rep Ranges and Muscle Building28:44 The Role of Genetics in Muscle Development32:24 The Debate on Natural vs Enhanced Athletes37:21 Altitude Training and Its Benefits

Ronda Holman is The Airway Champion. She is the Co-Founder of Airway Coach a revolutionary approach to helping humans learn to help themselves breathe better while they sleep by developing protocols and systems to be preformed daily. She is a 25 year, US Airforce trained, dental assistant who has spent her entire career looking at airway disorders and their negative effects in the mouth.She has dedicated the last  5 years helping patients and strangers understand the negative affects of oral breathing on their oral health. Ronda runs the airway protocol for her general dental practice helping patients rule out sleep apnea and find custom solutions to breathe better while they sleep.Ronda not only has a passion to help people discovered the root cause to so many non-communicable diseases, but she grew up with an undiagnosed airway disorder herself. After connecting the signs to the symptoms it is her mission to help others learn to see the signs so they can advocate for themselves. Many people do not understand the bio mechanics a breathing. Nor do they understand the detrimental effects over breathing/mouth breathing has on sleep quality. Ronda had extraction retraction orthodontics completed when she was 12 years old. She was diagnosed with upper airway resistance syndrome when she was 37 years old. Ronda then made a choice to either live with struggling to breathe during sleep every night and continue to watch her oral health decline or make a change to improve her airway health. She shares her passion every day to help people understand the difference between sleep (surviving) and quality sleep (thriving) and its inter-relationship between airway health and breathing.Here is the link to all of the tools that have helped other humans breathe better while they sleep. https://msha.ke/airwaycoachSHOWNOTES:

Neurobiologist Jamie Zeitzer is an expert on sleep – or, more accurately, an expert on why so many can't sleep. He notes that, ironically, it's often anxiety about sleep that prevents good sleep. In short, we lose sleep over lost sleep. Wearables and other tools can help but only to a point, and medications do not induce natural sleep. Instead, he counsels consistent routines, less stimulation at bedtime, and cognitive behavioral therapy to reduce worry about insomnia. Unfortunately, you can't work harder to get better sleep – you have to learn to relax, Zeitzer tells host Russ Altman on this episode of Stanford Engineering's The Future of Everything podcast.Have a question for Russ?

Feeling extra tired lately? Waking up and… feeling old?? In today's episode, I'm breaking down the biggest drivers behind your energy, vitality, stamina, and resilience. You'll learn the five key areas that shape how young or old you feel, how to tell the difference between true aging and reversible symptoms, simple shifts to restore your energy, and where to start if you're feeling completely wiped out.First things first—if you've been saying “I feel old” or “aging is the worst,” stop! Instead, get curious: What exactly makes you feel that way? Better yet, ask yourself what habits might be making you feel that way. Blaming age lets us off the hook—and keeps us stuck.Here are five truths about feeling old and ways to combat those feelings:1. Symptoms vs. Signs of AgingMany so-called “aging” symptoms (fatigue, brain fog, low energy) are actually reversible. Mitochondrial function plays a big role here.2. Exercise & CirculationNot all movement is equal. Real exercise, like steady cardio, intervals, and strength training, boosts circulation and energy. Use heart rate tracking to make sure your workouts count.3. Sleep Quality > QuantitySleep is a skill. Things like caffeine, alcohol, and lack of strength training can wreck your sleep. Focus on improving quality, not just getting more hours.4. Balanced NutritionIf you're dragging, start with food. Stabilizing blood sugar with balanced meals (protein, veggies, high-fiber carbs) can quickly boost energy and fat metabolism.5. Strength TrainingFeeling stiff, achy, or “old”? You likely need more muscle, not less movement. Strong muscles protect joints, reduce fatigue, and carry you through your day. Build strength progressively, and aim to leave workouts feeling better, not more drained.There's no one-size-fits-all exercise plan. What matters is recognizing the season you're in and choosing to work with your body, not against it. Let's redefine what getting older really feels like!You can get FREE access to my 4-week Strength Without Stress program right now!

Deborah Kado is a geriatrician who believes her field is misunderstood. Her interest in the science of aging began with a childhood encounter in a nursing home but recently resulted in intriguing work in which Kado linked microbes in the gut to vitamin D metabolism and poor sleep.

It's never too late to strive for better health, Kado tells host Russ Altman on this episode of Stanford Engineering's The Future of Everything podcast.Have a question for Russ?
