In this episode of the How to Hyperbaric Podcast, I’m joined by Dr. Joe Watso, assistant professor at Florida State University and director of the Cardiovascular and Applied Physiology Laboratory.We break down the science of VO2 max, one of the strongest predictors of longevity and overall health. Dr. Watso explains what VO2 max actually measures, why it reflects far more than just fitness, and how it connects to cardiovascular function, lung capacity, mitochondrial health, and long-term independence.We discuss how VO2 max is properly measured in a laboratory setting, how to get an estimate at home, how accurate wearable estimates really are, and how often it makes sense to test it. We also explore how VO2 max compares to heart rate variability (HRV), what lactate threshold and exercise economy reveal about performance, and what markers matter most for longevity and wellness.📌 Find Dr. Joe Watso here: https://joewatso.com/📚Get Certified and Learn how to use HBOT safely and effectively in our certification course: https://drmasha.com/hbot-certification-course/ 👩🏻‍⚕️ Book your Hyperbaric Oxygen Therapy consultation with Dr. Masha: https://drmasha.com/consult-with-me/ Timestamps:00:00 INTRO01:48 What Is VO2 Max?02:08 How to Measure VO2 Max03:22 What VO2 Max Can Tell Us About Our Body04:31 How VO2 Max Relates to Longevity06:24 Can We Use VO2 Max as a Marker to Measure Therapy Progress?07:52 Heart Rate Variability (HRV) vs. VO2 Max12:56 What to Do to Increase Your VO2 Max14:37 Do You Need to Be Fit Before Training VO2 Max?18:10 Hyperbaric Oxygen Therapy and VO2 Max19:24 Mitochondria and VO2 Max — What’s the Link?21:59 Combining Hyperbaric Therapy With Interval Training23:56 How Often Should You Test VO2 Max?25:26 Are VO2 Max Devices Accurate?27:25 Lactate Threshold Explained31:01 Running Economy vs. Cycling Economy32:56 Best Markers for Longevity and Wellness36:45 Are Wearables Accurate for VO2 Max?41:46 Where to Find Dr. Joseph WatsoThanks for watching!

In this episode, I sit down with neurological rehab specialist Dr. Nick Schmidlkofer to break down why stroke recovery doesn’t stop after one or two years, despite what many patients are told. We discuss why some people recover 90% while others only improve halfway, and how factors like inflammation, diet, targeted at-home exercises, HBOT therapy, red light therapy and other combinations of therapies influence outcomes.Dr. Nick also explains how his clinic combines vestibular rehab, vagus and peripheral nerve stimulation, red-light therapy, and hyperbaric oxygen to re-activate damaged brain regions and accelerate neuroplasticity. If you or a loved one is still struggling years after a stroke, this conversation shows why recovery is still possible. 📌 Neurologic Wellness Institute website: https://www.neurologicwellnessinstitute.com 👩🏻‍⚕️ Book your Hyperbaric Oxygen Therapy consultation with Dr. Masha: https://drmasha.com/consult-with-me/ 🎁 Join my 5-Day HBOT Sprint — totally for free: link http://eepurl.com/jkDsN-/Timestamps:00:00 INTRO00:07 Solutions for stroke recovery03:04 Why stroke-recovery results vary05:29 Can HBOT help with stroke recovery10:34 HBOT chamber at home13:20 Red-light therapy for stroke patients15:05 Does age affect the rate of neuroplasticity17:07 HBOT protocol details for stroke recovery19:30 How and where to treat neurological diseases Thanks for listening!
