you and your family take control of your health.

Welcome everyone. This is Dr. Mercola helping you take control of your health and you're in for a real treat today because I have Dr. James O'Keefe, who you probably haven't heard of, but I've noted about him since I was researching one of my modules

for my master class on movement, and his was the most pivotal paper.

It really changed my whole views on this. Literally I started exercising in 1968.

So I've been exercising for 53 years and I made a lot of mistakes and if I would have known the information as paper would have saved me a lot of trouble and and we're going to go dive deep into it and why I'm so excited to have them on is because there was a question in his meta analysis study that was just published earlier this year

That has profound implications about resistance training.

So I can't wait to discuss about that.

But in the meantime, let's tell you a little bit about him.

He is a graduate of the Internal Medicine residency at Mayo Clinic, and then he went on to do a

fellowship in cardiology at Mayo Clinic also and then he met the love of his life

who he's married to now and now he's out in Kansas City doing some things so

I'll let Dr O'Keefe describe his background

further and rather than me elaborate on it and how he's positioned. But thankfully, the love of his life is also a dietician, so he has a strong nutritional

orientation in addition to preventive cardiologist.

So welcome and thank you for joining us today.

Yeah, thanks, Joe.

It's a pleasure to be here.
