Is your brain getting enough oxygen? Your brain requires 10X the oxygen of any other part of your body. We increase brain oxygen by increasing chest expansion.
The human brain requires 10X more oxygen than any other part of the body. Productivity, pay, grades, mood and self-improve improve as a result.

65 year-old golfer gets new body.
Jim Deveney watched his friends rave about their Somax Microfiber Reduction program for more than a year. He finally made the plunge and got more than he expected. While his golf game improved far beyond his expectations, he was even more surprised by the 24-hour change in his body.
"Not everyone can get a New Body at age 65.
I did! Although I was attracted originally to the Somax Program for golf I found the whole experience to be far greater than I had anticipated."
You can see Jim's amazing before and after photos at
Somax Sports - Jim Deveney Jim Deveney was a life-long golfer who came to Somax at age 65 to improve his flexibility for golf.
"Every stress leaves an indelible scar.."
I recently came across this observation by endocrinologist Hans Selye, the founder of the modern concept of Stress.
"Every stress leaves an indelible scar, and the organism pays for its survival after a stressful situation by becoming a little older." Hans Selye (1907-1982)
Since our athletes often recall the stress and tension that created the microfibers (scar tissue) in their connective tissue as we release them, and many of the stresses did not seem ‘stressful’ at the time, I have found that Selye presciently described the formation and consequences of microfibers.
But I would like to bring Selye’s astute observation into the 21st century and slightly rewrite it.
"Every stress leaves an invisible scar, and the organism pays for its survival after a stressful situation by becoming a little stiffer."
For an in-depth explanation, please read our article.
Modern baseball is all about velocity. Pitch speed, bat speed, base speed. The current paradigm is that velocity is the result of muscle strength. But muscles are only 20% efficient. More efficient systems in the body, such as the connective tissue and skeleton, generate velocity far beyond muscle, as you can see in our analysis at
I had the pleasure of being interviewed yesterday by Danielle Tucker on her Golf Club Show radio broadcast.

Just scroll forward to 52 minutes and you can hear my Tom Watson story (I met him at the 1987 US Open at the Olympic Club) and why the neck is the key to putting.

Our research has found that Giants have lost past 6 straight games to Dodgers and Dbacks because they are slower and stiffer
With Covid-19 making travel difficult, we now offer our program remotely via Zoom. Our Tension Reduction, Stress Reduction, drills, video analysis, flexibility measurements and proprietary stretches (which make up 90% of our program to improve performance) can all be done remotely. One of our golfers has already increased his flexibility 47% and improved his putting 300% during just the first week of his remote program. Contact us via email at [email protected] for more information or to schedule an initial evaluation.

Just published an excerpt from my forthcoming book Beyond Muscle.
Building Endurance and Strength is the SLOWEST Way to Run Faster Why is improving endurance and strength the slowest way to run faster? It’s because muscles are so inefficient. Your coach doesn’t tell you this.
A runner who worked as a senior software engineer in Silicon Valley received two promotions and three raises in pay in three months after we doubled his chest expansion because his productivity improved so dramatically.
After we doubled his chest expansion from 2" to 4" (and his vital capacity from 3.02 liters to 4.01 liters) one of our clients went from making C's in an entry level college to graduating with A's in two majors and two minors. He recalled carrying a heavy backpack to school every day but did not believe it could have affected his grades until he added up all the weight from the beginning of 1st grade to the end of high school. It came to over 21,00 lbs. or 6.5 Toyota's! Now he understands why it restricted his breathing and lowered his school grades.
