In this solo episode of the Flex Diet Podcast, I announce the opening of the Flex Diet Certification and highlight its key features and benefits. I explain the difference between the Flex Diet Cert, which focuses on nutrition and recovery, and the Physiologic Flexibility Cert, which deals with advanced resilience and recovery strategies.

Emphasizing a habit-based approach, I cover core topics such as metabolic flexibility, macronutrient usage, and improved body composition. Additionally, I discuss the bonus items available for early enrollees and my certifications' overall expansion model aimed at long-term health and performance success.
