Dr. Mike Nelson’s Flex Diet Podcast is an absolute gem for anyone serious about optimizing performance, recovery, and longevity. What sets this show apart is Mike’s rare ability to blend cutting-edge science with practical application. He brings on top-tier guests and asks thoughtful, nuanced questions that dig beneath the surface-level advice you find elsewhere. Each episode is packed with actionable tips, whether you're looking to fine-tune your nutrition, upgrade your training, or better understand how stress and recovery affect your gains. Mike’s delivery is smart but never pretentious, and his passion for physiology, fitness, and helping others improve is clear in every episode. If you’re a coach, athlete, or just someone who wants to be strong and resilient for life, the Flex Diet Podcast should absolutely be in your regular rotation.

I have known Mike for years and haven even had the honor of being coached by him. I consider him to be one of the most reliable sources of health, fitness and performance information out there. I also love his delivery and his sense of humor. One of my favorite podcasts!

Dr. Mike’s podcast is top notch! I have had the privilege to have done a fellowship with Dr Mike, trained in his garage gym, done the cold plunge in his freezer, and taken all of his courses. I love nerding out with all his knowledge and guests. You can find everything you need about nutrition, training and the latest science with this podcast. I recommend it to all my fellow nerds and people wanting to crush their goals! Keep killing it Dr. Mike!!!

I learned about the podcast through the Flex Diet certification course and I have to say this is one of the best podcast on nutrition and health out there. The guest are great and they explain the topics in depth, so you can actually implement it into your diet or training program. Michael does a great job of explaining topics and he explains the pros and cons of some of the research out there.

Great information and resource Dr Mike. Recommended listen : )

I’ve been listening to Dr Mike for some time now. Started with Iron Radio, now a fan of this Flex Diet pod. Bottom line: he’s the best in the biz. He was brought in person to speak to my mil unit. Top notch.

Perfect bit sized podcast packed with info!

Tons of actionable items with very little fluff. Dr Mike is the man!

Solid podcast. I have a few podcasts for longer listening, but Dr. Nelson’s podcast is excellent for that short commute each morning to work to learn something new. There aren’t enough short and hard hitting podcasts like this one. Highly enjoyable

Short and to the point. Great information especially on those days where you just need to learn something more!

Dr. Mike has tons of experience coaching people and it’s great to hear him share some of what he teaches here.
