Episode Details

If you’re serious about improving your health and conditioning, or just living a longer and healthier life, you’re going to LOVE this episode.

Joel Jamieson is a mentor, friend, and someone I deeply respect in our industry.

He’s the author of the Ultima MMA Conditioning book, developer of the Morpheus fitness app and creator of the Certified Conditioning Coach certification.

But most importantly, he’s just a wealth of knowledge and someone I’m honored to call a friend.

In this episode we’re going to cover a ton of different topics – from Zone 2 cardio, to assessing your fitness, and how to maximize your recovery.
