Show Notes

What is the secret to assessing, training, and integrating technology with performance? Here to dive into the deep physiology of ice hockey is Brian Kozak, a respiratory & performance coach. Brian has dedicated decades to experimenting with cutting edge technology in pursuit of real time insights into each system's limiters, compensators, and their implications for training, rehab, and recovery. Today, we have a fantastic conversation all about the technology and physiology behind high performance athletics. Brian shares his efficient training methods for utilization, delivery, breathing mechanics, and more. From measuring oxygen saturation to building capillary density, we'll be discussing the best ways to train both body and mind. Tune in for an in depth lesson on the applied physiology of high performance hockey!
