ČESKY V KOMENTÁŘÍCH…..

Every move we make is a constant synchrony between tension and relaxation of our muscles. If we oversimplify it, some muscles have to contract and their agonists have to relax. This is happening all the time as we move.
The best athletes are masters of tension and relaxation. If their body would be too tense when they try to sprint, kick the ball during the soccer game, spike the ball, they would have problems generating power and they would look and move slower than desired. Their body needs to be relaxed, elastic , but suddenly tense up at the right moment.
But a different situation is happening at the gym when creating tension before you lift is mandatory for generating more strength and safety. This excess tension will serve you as a protective shield for your joints and spine.

Overhead Press ( in picture ) is a great example of creating extra muscular tension before and during the lift. Before I lift the kettlebell, my toes are grabbing the floor, my kneecaps are pulled up, my quads and glutes are clinched, my stomach is bracing for a punch, my hand is trying to break the kettlebell handle.
All this extra tension can help you to lift heavier weights but safely.
Also knowing how to create tension will help you to become a master of relaxation. Because if you don’t know how to tense the body, how can you know how to relax it?

Human body is composed of billions of cells. Each cell has its own Mitochondria (“power house”), where each and every cell converts blood glucose into life energy called - ATP (adenosintriphosphat). In other words Mitochondria convert food energy into cellular energy.
Quality of this process is essential for your health.

You can visualize mitochondria as a fireplace, where logs (blood glucose) are burned to produce heat and light (ATP). If this fireplace is burning efficiently there is lots of energy produced and not much ash left after, but if it doesn’t, the opposite would be true. And the body cells would be flooded with ash (toxic fat).

Unfortunately the main problem occurs later when the cells with dysfunctional mitochondria would be attacked by your own immune system. This is the root of chronic inflammation and every imaginable disease in the human body.

Dysfunctional mitochondria will determine if you become overweight or not.

Dysfunctional mitochondria will determine if you end up having diabetes or cancer.

Dysfunctional mitochondria will determine if you die of stroke or heart disease.

Poor energy production in dysfunctional mitochondria will determine if you have erectile dysfunction, hearing loss, depression, chronic fatigue, infertility, eczema , arthritis, chronic pain, sinus infections, migraines, suicidal thoughts etc.

Dysfunctional mitochondria determined if you died of Covid or not.

Dysfunctional mitochondria will determine if you end up with a Broken Brain known as Dementia or Alzheimer.

Your mitochondria determine the quality and length of your life.

What damages our Mitochondrias you may ask? Our modern life!
Such as a sedentary lifestyle , lack of movement, chronic stress, overeating, added sugar, smoking, antibiotics, pesticides in food, polluted air we breathe, tap water we drink ... .etc.

What makes Mitochondria better nowadays?
Hard physical work, proper diet, fasting, doing sports, cold water exposure, sauna…

So train and optimize it to live a better longer life.

You have probably seen it on the Discovery Channel. A Monk that can sit in the snow and heat his body up so much that it can melt the snow around him. Crazy huh ?
That is an example of extreme interoceptive body control.
What is INTEROCEPTION ? Pause for a moment and attempt to become aware of your heartbeat without touching a pulse point. Can you feel it easily? Your ability to sense your heartbeat is a quick test of your interoception, which is your INTRINSIC AWARENESS OF THE PHYSIOLOGICAL STATE OF YOUR OWN BODY. Interoception can be both conscious and unconscious, and it covers a wide range of systems, including digestion, breathing, pain, temperature regulation, and certain types of touch. Interoception is also a big player in human performance anxiety.

The brain is always trying to make predictions, and the same holds true for your interoceptive system. Your brain is trying to guess the internal needs of your performance. How much blood flow will it take to engage your abdominals to support your sprint? How does your breathing rate need to adjust to keep you alive fighting inside the octagon ? The better interoception works the less scary it is to have public speaking, for example.

When you are performing in any area of life, what you see (exteroception), where you physically are (proprioception), and what you feel inside (interoception) must all be consistent. If any part of that equation is off, anxiety and a degraded performance result.

If you would like to learn how to optimize your interception and become a more resilient person and better performing athlete, follow the next post.

Earth’s magnetic field.
For some of you nothing new. Earthing or grounding is real. Google it! It is a simple technique that connects the body to the Earth’s electrical energy. All you have to do is to take your shoes off and touch the grass, soil, and sand. It will give you free energy !!!

Sunshine.
Sunshine is everything. Your dermatologist may disagree , but they don’t know.
Longest Life expectancy is centered around the equator of the earth. That’s why true eskimos have a shorter life.
Vitamin D from Sunshine makes everything better. It makes your bones stronger, it decreases inflammation in your body, arthritis, depression, blood pressure, it boosts your immune system etc. Makes you feel alive !

Oxygen.
Presence of O2 is the absence of disease. Cancer cells hate oxygen ! Doing breathwork is the way to go when you are barefoot , shirtless walking in the park or beach.
Check the Wim Hof breathing method for more details.

More we humans deviate from these simple daily routines , the sicker we get.

1/ OVERFED, BUT UNDERNOURISHED ….
Nothing new. We eat too much, too often, processed food, comfort food, refined carbs, added corn syrup everywhere (70% of all food), but we are technically UNDERNOURISHED !!! Most of us don’t eat adequate amounts of protein, omega 3, vitamin D3, fiber, magnesium…

2/ DIGITALLY OVERSTIMULATED, BUT PHYSICALLY UNDERWORKED
Average American spends roughly 8-10 hours daily “on the screen”, sitting 9-10 hours a day. Our ancestors (gathers and hunters) were 14 times more physically active than we are now. Most of us never meet the minimum 10 thousands steps a daily requirement, we do 4-5 thousands on average. We spend 90% of our time indoors. Because of that, most of us are nearsighted ( we don’t see well far away…), we have vit. D deficiency and messed up circadian rhythm.
One person consumes more unnecessary data in one day than our ancestors 700 years ago in their entire life.

3/ OVERMEDICATED, BUT MOST LIKELY MISDIAGNOSED
Average Gr**go over the age of 50 swallows 5 different prescription medications ( aka synthetic chemical pharmaceuticals…) a few times a day. Nobody knows long term side effects, long term mechanisms or what combination 2 or more pills do to the human body.
Medical errors are the 3rd leading cause of death in the US. Big chunk of the US population is addicted to opiates.
It is estimated that roughly 80% of the US population is insulin resistant, but most of us have never been early diagnosed. This condition is the foundation for cardiovascular disease such as heart attack or stroke. This is the number one cause of death in the US and the entire world.

4/ MEDICALLY TREATED, BUT NEVER FULLY CURED…..
Our medical system is profit oriented, just like everything. FULLY CURING people is not profitable, treating them with pharmaceuticals for many years basically until they die is.
This system is designed to help you only cope with your symptoms, but not get rid of disease.

DO YOU WANT TO PART OF THIS SOCIETY, OR DO YOU WANT TO BE DIFFERENT ???

As a neuro Trainer, I don’t always get chances to work with athletes, relatively fit people, or people who want to lose weight. Sometimes I get beautifully challenged by clients with neurodegenerative or neurological diseases, such as Parkinson, Alzheimer, or stroke .

Neurotraing can be really effective for these particular clients, offering them a chance to rehab their brain via sensory systems training (vision, hearing, smell, feeling)

The photo is showing how we can use sensory systems training to upregulate the RIGHT side brain injury after stroke.

All sensory inputs are processed on the contralateral side of the brain , except smell. Knowing that we can use specialty designed Hemifield glasses to direct light from the left side to upregulate the right side of the brain.
We can use the ear bug to direct the sound only to the left ear. We can use the nose plug to direct the smell only through the right nostril. Or you can use the Z vibe (mini vi****or) for the left side of the mouth to upregulate desired side of the brain.
Also laser headlamps can be used for fine motor control of the neck muscle for Midbrain upregulation or Blood Flow Restricted exercise for Insula etc.

Welcome to the world of Neuro Training.

This concept is adopted from the podcast. This pyramid is a hierarchy of things to do when you wake up in the morning and you don’t like what you are in the mirror or how you feel.

Let’s say that you are overweight and don’t like what you see and how you feel. First you should always optimize your:

1) behavior - exercice 4-5 times a week, do your sports, sleep 8 hours minimum, stress management to avoid comfort food, sauna, cold plunge, long walks, s*x …etc

2) diet - optimize what you eat. Every diet or fasting routine will work at the beginning until it doesn’t. Get ready for a long race.

3) supplements for weight - fiber, protein powder, vitamins….

4/ pharmaceuticals - Ozempic (with huge side effects) etc.

5) gastric bypass surgery etc.

BEHAVIOR FIRST !!!

Tento koncept je převzat z podcastu Huberman Lab. Tato pyramida představuje hierarchií věcí, které musíte udělat, když se ráno probudíte a nelíbí se vám, co vidíte v zrcadle nebo jak se cítíte.

Řekněme, že máte nadváhu a chcete to změnit . Nejprve byste měli vždy optimalizovat:

1) vaše chování - cvičte 4-5x týdně, sportujte, spěte minimálně 8 hodin, naučte se ovládat stres, abyste se vyhnuli “comfort” jídlu, či alkohulu, sauna, studená koupel, dlouhé procházky , s*x...atd.

2) dieta – optimalizujte to, co jíte. Každá dieta nebo půst bude na začátku fungovat, ale jen pár mesícu, pak uz ne. Připravte se na dlouhý závod.

3) doplňky na váhu - vláknina, proteinový prášek, vitamíny....

4/ léčiva - Ozempic (s obrovskými vedlejšími účinky) atd.

5) operace bypassu žaludku atd.

CHOVÁNÍ VŽDY PRVNÍ !!!

Blood flow restricted exercise (BFRE) has been around for a few decades now. It is probably the most scientifically researched form of exercise. It has been used in high performance training to stimulate fast twitch fiber or mimic high altitude training.

In the rehab world it has been used for increasing strength and hypertrophy after injury, acute pain relief and brain rehabilitation etc.

Cvičení s omezeným průtokem krve (BFRE) existuje již několik desetiletí. Je to pravděpodobně nejvíce vědecky prozkoumaná forma cvičení. Používá se při vysoce výkonném tréninku ke stimulaci rychlých svalových vláken nebo napodobování tréninku ve vysoké nadmořské výšce.

Ve světě rehabilitace se používá pro zvýšení síly a růstu svalů po zranění, úlevu od akutní bolesti a rehabilitaci mozku.
