S.3 Ep.20 Optimal Heart Health: Coming Back Stronger After A Heart Attack
Last episode in this season, and its a cracker! Today i'm joined by Dr Richard Godfrey, a lecturer in physiology at Brunel University, London. In 2007 he had a near fatal heart attack, but using his knowledge and lots of research, he managed to rebuild his health and heart function. We discuss all aspects of heart heath including, exercise, diet and lifestyle.
Dr Richard Godfrey is a Senior Lecturer in Sports Coaching and Human Performance at Brunel University, London - but is a physiologist by background. He lectures at every level in physiology and at level 2, 3 and Masters in Sports Coaching. He completed his PhD on ‘The exercise-induced growth hormone response in humans and its association with lactate’ in 2003 with Cranfield University. His interests extend to sports performance and increasingly to health-related aspects of exercise. As a result he has published on a wide range of issues: heat, hydration and performance, jet lag, bone health, physiology of rowing, altitude, physiology of exercise training, physiology of triathlon, detraining, cancer and exercise, sleep, immune function and education.
In 2003 Richard joined the teaching team in the School of Sport and Education (now College of Health and Life Sciences) following 12 years as a physiologist at the British Olympic Medical Centre (BOMC), the British Olympic Association’s Department of Science and Medicine. During the last 7 years with the BOA he was Chief Physiologist of the BOMC and was involved in organising physiology service provision to elite sport before the home-country sports institutes, including the English Institute of Sport, were operational.
