Red Light Therapy for Exercise Performance 2X Your Gains- Course

from Alex Fergus - Light Therapy Insiders · host Alex Fergus

Send us Fan MailRed light therapy can be a real performance tool — not just something you do for “recovery.” This video breaks down what the latest research on exercise performance says about muscle endurance, strength, fatigue, inflammation, and VO₂ max.The key takeaway is simple: timing matters. Most of the best results show up when red light therapy is used before your workout (often a few hours beforehand), and current evidence still points toward local treatment (targeting the muscle you’re about to train) over full-body sessions for measurable performance outcomes. Interestingly, full-body setups may still help sleep quality, which can indirectly support training and recovery over time.Bart also explains why some results look mixed (especially for running), why older laser-based protocols don’t always translate cleanly to consumer LED devices, and how to choose the right device and dosing approach for the muscle group you’re training.This episode is part of a free, science-driven red light therapy course designed to help you understand the foundations, cut through hype, and apply light therapy more intelligently over time.Please sign up here to be notified when new course material is released.
