What if the research indicated there was an inexpensive breathing exercise device that, if utilized about 5 minutes/day, could significantly reduce blood pressure and improve exercise performance? Resisted breathing – or what the science refers to as “inspiratory muscle strength training” – or IMST - isn't new. I remember reading about it, but at the time it appeared to be all fluff as our intercostal breathing muscles were almost never utilized at capacity, so who cares if we strengthen them? Fast forward a decade or so and it turns out we might all care. Whether you or a loved one has high blood pressure and would like to access options beyond just medications, or you're a runner, triathlete, swimmer or cyclist looking to optimize your performance – IMST may be worth a closer look. Today we'll take that closer look with Dr. Daniel Craighead, who's groundbreaking work in this area is both fascinating and eye-opening. Dr. Craighead is a leading exercise physiologist and cardiovascular health researcher at the University of Minnesota, where he focuses on innovative, time-efficient interventions to combat age-related declines in cardiovascular and metabolic health. His research on high-resistance inspiratory muscle strength training has shown that just five minutes a day of targeted breathing exercise can significantly lower blood pressure, enhance vascular function, and improve exercise tolerance — all without traditional aerobic training. Today, he joins The Coaching Lab to unpack how this simple, science-backed technique is reshaping approaches to both peak performance and everyday health.The Powerbreathe unit Dr. Cooper has been using available here.You can stay up to date on Dr. Craighead's latest research via his lab website and if you'd like to tune into another interview he provided for NPR, it is available here.Info re earning your health & wellness coaching certification, annual Rocky Mountain Coaching Retreat & Symposium & more via https://www.catalystcoachinginstitute.com/ Best-in-class coaching for Employers, EAPs & wellness providers https://catalystcoaching360.com/ Tap into the home of the (freely available) Not Done Yet! articles on unlocking life's 2nd half here.

Your fancy smartwatch is lying to you about your VO2 max, and chasing that number is sabotaging your race timesMost runners obsess over VO₂ max, but few really understand what it means or how to use it. In this episode, I break down the truth about what VO₂ max actually measures, why your watch might be misleading you, and how to train in a way that builds lasting fitness. If you've ever wondered why your numbers don't match how strong you feel, or how to make sense of VO₂ workouts without burning out, this conversation will give you the clarity and tools to get there.Key TakeawaysVO2 max shows your genetic potential for using oxygen, but having a high number doesn't guarantee fast race times.Smartwatches often give inaccurate VO₂ max numbers because they can't measure things like sleep, recovery, or stress.The right workouts and patience can help you train smarter, improve steadily, and unlock real race-day performance.Timestamps[00:15] What You'll Learn[00:49] Vo2 Max Defined[03:29] How To Improve Your Vo2 Max[07:24] Use This To Improve Your Vo2 Max Now[08:03] Run Science Nerd Break - Vo2 Max Tops Out[09:03] Why Smart Watches Get It All Wrong[09:51] Why You Need Patience To Improve Your Vo2 Max[11:01] Use This To Get a Higher Vo2 Max and Race FasterLinks & Learnings

Send us a textWe all know movement is good for us. But can the right kind of exercise actually slow the aging process itself?In this episode, Dr. Kevin White talks with Benjamin Miller, Ph.D., professor of aging research at OMRF and past president of the American Aging Association, about what really happens to our muscles and mitochondria as we age, and how his new NIH-funded clinical trial is working to answer one of the most important questions in longevity science: why do some people respond to exercise better than others?"Every drug we study is just trying to be as good as exercise — and exercise still wins."Dr. Miller explains the biology of aging in plain language, from protein damage to energy production, and shares why exercise still outperforms any “miracle drug” on the market. He also unpacks the design of his new trial, where people 60 and older will receive supervised training, advanced health testing, and wearables to measure everything from VO₂ max to sleep — all with the goal of predicting who benefits most from which type of exercise.In this episode:Why exercise is still the closest thing we have to a longevity drugHow mitochondria and protein health drive resilience as we ageWhat VO₂ max actually measures — and why it predicts lifespanThe role of genetics vs. lifestyle in how our bodies respond to trainingHow to get involved in Dr. Miller's NIH-backed exercise study at OMRFThis conversation is a reminder that slowing aging isn't about hacks or shortcuts — it's about moving, staying engaged, and using science to make every decade stronger than the last.

In this episode, the Athletes Compass team sits down with legendary exercise physiologist Dr. Stephen Seiler, who's best known for popularizing polarized training. Dr. Seiler shares his latest insights into using breathing frequency as a real-time indicator of training stress—a potentially more accurate and actionable metric than heart rate or RPE. He explains the conceptual shift from traditional load-focused models to a "load–stress–strain" framework and discusses how wearables and new tech are unlocking practical ways for everyday and elite athletes to train smarter. Drawing from personal experience and collaborations with developers, he emphasizes how individual physiology, psychological state, and even life stressors all impact how we respond to training. It's an enlightening conversation for athletes and coaches alike.Key TakeawaysBreathing frequency may be a more sensitive, real-time indicator of training stress than heart rate or RPE.Seiler introduces a Load → Stress → Strain framework to better define how training affects the body.Heart rate often fails to capture accumulating fatigue or psychological stress, while ventilation might pick it up.RPE (Rate of Perceived Exertion) is often unreliable due to athlete bias and difficulty measuring it in the moment.New tech (e.g., Timeware and Garmin devices) is enabling field measurement of ventilation, both frequency and depth.Breathing frequency zones may be individualized just like heart rate zones.Norwegian athletes used a now-unveiled strategy of over-breathing at the start of hills to reduce oxygen deficit.Breathing costs can rise up to 20% of VO2max, potentially limiting leg muscle performance.Paul Warloski - Endurance, Strength Training, YogaMarjaana Rakai - Tired Mom Runs - Where fitness meets motherhood.
VO₂max gilt als einer der wichtigsten Indikatoren für Ausdauer, Leistungsfähigkeit und Langlebigkeit – aussagekräftiger als Rauchen oder Diabetes. In dieser Folge erfährst du, was VO₂max ist, wie der Wert gemessen wird und mit welchen Trainingsmethoden du ihn nachhaltig steigern kannst.
Visit https://longevitybuilders.com/to discover the book and The Longevity Builder Health Lab.Key ConceptsThe Workshop Analogy: Knowledge requires tools. The Longevity Builder Health Lab is introduced as a digital "workshop" for health, inspired by his son's physical woodworking workshop.VO2 Max & Hazard Ratio: A low VO2 Max (your body's oxygen efficiency score) has a Hazard Ratio of 5.0—a 400% increased risk of premature death, making it the most powerful predictor of longevity.Hypoxic Training: This involves exercising in a low-oxygen environment that mimics high altitude, forcing your body to adapt and improve its oxygen efficiency.Shane uses analogies to simplify the benefits:Cardiovascular Overhaul: Your heart's main pumping chamber gets bigger, increasing its capacity (stroke volume). This lowers your resting heart rate. (Analogy: A standard car engine is swapped for a powerful V8.) Blood flow improves, stimulating Nitric Oxide production, which widens arteries and lowers blood pressure. (Analogy: A city planner widening roads.) HDL cholesterol increases, acting like a cleanup crew that removes plaque. (Analogy: An elite hazmat crew cleaning a toxic spill.)Metabolic Upgrade: Exercise creates an insulin-independent pathway for cells to absorb glucose, combating insulin resistance. (Analogy: A high-security building with a secret VIP back door for fuel deliveries.)Cellular Enhancements: Hypoxic training builds new, more efficient mitochondria (cellular power plants) and recycles old ones. (Analogy: A city upgrading its power grid.) It also increases red blood cells, enhancing oxygen transport. (Analogy: A logistics company upgrading its fleet of vans to semi-trucks.)Brain Health: The process releases BDNF ("Miracle-Gro for the brain"), which supports neuron growth and connections. It also improves deep, restorative sleep, during which the brain flushes out toxins. (Analogy: A library's A-Team and an elite overnight restoration crew.)Shane ends with a powerful personal story about his father, who died at 46 from a preventable heart attack, and emphasizes the importance of a personal "why" for building longevity.

You wouldn't run a business without KPIs, so why are you running your body without them?Data is only helpful if it leads to better decisions. In this episode, I walk through the five (5) key metrics I track which range from cardiovascular fitness to micronutrient intake, blood pressure, and sleep quality. I also share how I spent years getting diagnostic tests (that were helpful to me at the time, but didn't exactly induce behavioral change in my clients) and how to avoid that trap. Whether you're an executive, entrepreneur, or just someone who wants to perform at a higher level, this episode is your cheat sheet for measurable, meaningful progress. 20 years of mistakes taught me this and I'm giving it to you in 30 minutes.So tune in because these five are the foundation, and once they're in place, everything else gets easier.Episode Timeline: 0:00 – Episode Preview1:26 – Why Most People Misuse Health Data5:44 – Ben's Gut Issues and Testing Journey7:28 – The Phase Where I Overcomplicated Everything10:47 – Metric #1: VO2 Max and Longevity14:15 – Metric #2: Track Your Macros and Micros18:24 – Metric #3: Blood Pressure is Killing Your Progress22:38 – Metric #4: The Blood Markers That Actually Matter25:09 – Metric #5: Sleep Is the Real Game Changer30:16 – Bonus Metrics: Steps and Fiber31:31 – Conclusion for Foundational Metrics 32:50 – Podcast OutroLinks & Resources:Connect with Ben on Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/bodysystemscoaching/Learn more about Ben's coaching programs: www.bodysystems.comSubscribe to the Smart Nutrition Made Simple Show on Apple Podcasts | Spotify | YouTube

Episode 162 – The Tour Finale and the Pre-Pre-Leadville 100 Gravel Race Episode What up party people. Welcome back for another fun episode of the Bonk Bros Podcast where we're talking about our thoughts on the Tour finale, getting into all things drop bars at the Leadville 100 Mountain Bike (I mean gravel) race, as well as our reaction to Dizzle's latest round of VO2max testing, and plenty more. As always, this episode is brought to you by some of our AMAZING partners who continue to stand by our side and bring you access to some of our favorite products that we use on the daily. For all of your bicycle tire and accessory shopping needs head over to Bike Tires Direct (or BTD as we call them) and use code “bonkbros” when checking out for a sweet little discount. BTD was kind enough to support the Crested Butte training camp that I co-hosted a few weeks ago and sent us a boat load of tires for the athletes to demo, along with some Silca sealant, and they also provided us with a couple of the newest head units from Garmin, the Edge MTB. We got to put these rugged little buggers to the test over the course of the week and one of the lucky campers even got to go home with one after we raffled it off at the end of camp. If you're in the market for a new bike computer and you're anything like me and constantly breaking these darn things then be sure to check out the Garmin Edge MTB head unit over at Bike Tires Direct. Next up if you're just sick of having to always pretend like you're buying razors for your wife at the store every time you run out of leg shavers, then check out the best razors for men who shave their legs from our friends over at BOLT Skin + Shave. And for an extra 15% off that silky smooth shave experience type in code BROS15 at checkout. That's Bolk Skin + Shave (code: BROS15) Oh yeah we've also got the lovely crew over at Silca, our longest running show sponsor who's always developing the latest in marginal gains products plus a whole bunch more. Silca too was a sponsor of the Crested Butte camp, setting us up with Crockpotanator 4000s, tons of Secret Blend wax and all the various chip additives, they made sure we were washing bikes in style every night with the Bike Spa treatment, plus they made sure each camper went home with some Super Secret wax drip lube. Check out any of these products and more over at Silca.cc and use the code “Bonkbrosjuly2025” for discount at checkout. Just a few more here for y'all. If you're still in the process of dialing in your training and racing fueling strategy (which you should always be doing) then you need to experiment with the magical powers of ketone esthers by the folks over at KetoneAid. Once you do, you'll quickly find that unlike the absolute monstrosity of sugary concoctions high carb drink mixes are, KetoneAid brings you a product that can be used for both on the bike and off the bike fueling to support overall lifestyle performance. Use ketones for things like enhancing cognitive function, improving recoverability and sleep, and even for that afternoon pick-me-up before you leave the office to head home and hammer out a training ride.

In this episode of Ageless Future Podcast (Health Accelerator Challenge), Regan Archibald explores the underlying causes of chronic inflammation—coined "inflammaging"—and its profound impact on immune health, aging, and disease. He dives deep into the biological mechanisms of cellular senescence, immunosenescence, and how persistent inflammation accelerates aging and impairs immunity. Regan presents cutting-edge solutions such as peptides (e.g., FOXO4, Thymosin Alpha 1, BPC-157), stem cell therapies, umbilical cord plasma, and exosomes that can recalibrate immune function, reduce inflammatory biomarkers, and enhance tissue regeneration. Practical tips include optimizing VO2 max, sleep tracking, and gut health maintenance. Real-life patient outcomes and data-supported strategies highlight how combining movement, nutrition, and regenerative therapies can help prevent chronic illness and extend healthspan. The episode concludes with a challenge: monitor your sleep to gain insights into your immune resilience. www.agelessfuture.com
This is a critical look at our previous podcast episodes on VO2max training, and with hindsight provide new and additional context on those training recommendations, plus other effective ways to do VO2max training, with their coaching and contextual aspects. We investigate some instances of "VO2max blocks" in the scientific literature, reexamine the 30/15s paper, and discuss additional factors that confound the interpretation of those and other published results before considering how we can use that information to our advantage when training.

(9:00) Vinnie explains the origin of the “220”. (11:00) It's an average heart rate, and the Zones are a breakdown from there. Zone 2 is 180- your age. He also explains why there may be some variations. Zone 2 is the most important because it allows you to be the most aerobically fit. (18:30) HIIT training is important, too, but after weeks of training in Zone 2. You have to build a base. Vinnie suggests HIIT once a week. VO2 Max is the volume of oxygen uptake, or the maximum volume of oxygen you can handle at any given time. (22:30) It is not unusual for the average person over a certain age to be on 10 or 11 medications. (25:00) The side effects from medications are jarring.

This week's show brought to you by: Kila Running When we first got connected with the team at Kila insoles, they explained that they can make high-performance insoles perfectly designed for your feet within days, just by using the Kila Running app. All you have to do is open the app and place the phone on the ground, then take a few photos of your feet using the FaceID camera. This allows them to create a full 3D scan within minutes. They don't even need your shoe size! Once you get past the weirdness of taking photos of your feet, it's pretty cool to see the images for yourself and then get the notification that the scans are being sent to their North American orthotics lab. After that the insoles arrive as fast as that same week. Kila isn't the first company to use an iPhone or iPad to scan your feet for orthotics—it's actually becoming the standard method doctors and sports medicine clinics use to create a foot cast. But Kila is bringing that same technology to the direct-to-consumer space, at about one-quarter the cost. Most insoles feel bulky and rigid, but Kila custom insoles are more like having a layer of supershoe foam underfoot propelling you through your stride. All you have to do when they arrive is slip out your old insoles and put these in. It might take some getting used to the full-foot contact but it's pretty amazing how great they feel and you won't be disappointed. Just head to kilarun.com and you can get $70 off your first pair and with a 60-day money back guarantee. Creatine Gummies Designed for the Needs of Endurance Athletes You've undoubtedly heard about the benefits of creatine. It's been heralded as the single most effective legal supplement on the market. But, if you've tried it before then you know creatine can also lead to stomach issues, bloating, cramping and can be hard to take consistently. Well, not any longer with the first creatine gummy formulated specifically for endurance athletes from MAS Edge. Unlike cheap powders, MAS Edge creatine gummies contain micronized creatine, which is a 100% soluble type of creatine with superior bioavailability. That means they are specifically formulated to be absorbed quickly so it's gentle on the stomach, eliminates water retention, and doesn't give you the bloated feeling you may have experienced with traditional creatine powders. Plus, the gummies are so delicious that you'll look forward to taking them every day. If you're ready to experience a pure, fast-acting creatine that fuels your muscles, enhances your performance and helps you recover every time you train then you have to check them out.
