Michael Palser is a functional training specialist with over 25 years in the fitness and wellness industry and the creator of the Human Hybrid Project — a training philosophy and way of life built on three pillars: function, mindset, and purpose. The Human Hybrid Project is his distillation of 50,000+ hours of training, every book he’s read, every seminar he’s attended, and perhaps most importantly, every mistake along the way.
Michael is also the author of BECOMING, a book structured around what it means to become a whole man. And he’s a musician — the vocalist and guitarist behind T E N Ǝ T, a concept-driven rock project created alongside producer and visual architect Khary Alexander. T E N Ǝ T blends guitar-driven modern rock with cinematic depth and dark emotional weight. “It is the sound of transformation unfolding.” The debut single “GHOSTS” is the opening chapter of a larger narrative exploring identity, the Hero’s Journey, shadow, and the process of becoming. Michael performs “Ghosts” live at the end of the episode.
I wrote a bit about this episode here.
