Fundraiser by Lesley Paterson for Dr Simon Marshall: The Bravest Fight of All

Dr. Mike T. Nelson has spent 18 years learning how the human body works, specifically focusing on properly conditioning it to burn fat and become stronger, more flexible, and healthier. He's been called to share his techniques with top government agencies, universities and colleges, fitness organisations and fanatics. The techniques he's developed and the results Mike gets for his clients have been featured in international magazines, scientific publications, and websites across the globe.

On the podcast today, Mike talks about his Flex Diet Certification program: a course for trainers, coaches and fitness enthusiasts on metabolic flexibility, working with clients on nutrition and achieving fitness goals. We also talk about a little of everything else - his recent talk at the ISSN Conference, measuring and improving your VO2 Max, creating training plans, and the best ways to assess for fitness and healthspan.

Mike's Flex Diet Certification program takes students 1-2 times a year and is open through 1/22/24.
