    There are certain things you need to do before, during, and after your workout-especially as you get older. That's what we're going to cover today.
    It’s no surprise that there is an association between a lack of exercise and many different health concerns.
    One of the biggest benefits of exercise is that it increases the mitochondria. Various diseases are related to mitochondrial dysfunction, including cancer. Exercise also increases stem cells, which can turn into just about anything your body needs.
    Exercise helps reduce stress, balance blood sugar levels, supports sleep, and has many other incredible health benefits.
    The four variables of exercise:
    1. Duration
    2. Intensity
    3. Recovery
    4. Frequency
    You need to give your body time to recover, not just between workouts but also during workouts. It's important to rest between four to five minutes between each set.
    This will allow your body to replenish ATP and help you train with maximum power. Intensity is key with exercise. Focus on higher intensity with more sets and lots of recovery. Many of the benefits of exercise also occur one to two days later during sleep.
    Just a small amount of refined carbs can nullify the benefits of exercise. However, if you have diabetes or insulin resistance and are trying to build muscle on the keto diet, you can increase your carbs to 50 grams per day. The type of carbohydrates you can consume are berries and protein.
    Other essential tips to increase the benefits from your workouts and support recovery:
    1. Do high-intensity interval training (HIIT)
    2. Come to a full stop vs. active recovery during HIIT workouts
    3. Put more focus on eccentric motions (elongating the muscles)
    4. Do contrasting therapy after you exercise
    5. Build up to exercising during a fasting state (eat one to two hours after a workout)
    6. Consume enough salt and electrolytes (consume electrolyte powder if needed)
    7. Consume red meat, eggs, and high-quality cheese
    8. Don’t exercise over soreness and focus on sleep instead
    9. Take copper before bed to enhance sleep

    I'm a bodybuilder and I have been doing negative reps for a long while. I has tremendously helped me with getting stronger. For a while I could only do 12-15 reps of pull ups. I incorporated negatives for 6 weeks and I can now do 25 pull ups @ 240 lbs. Peolpe lift way too fast @ the gym. Everyone should focus on time under tension and slow down when lifting. It will also help with injury prevention because you can focus on form when you slow down.

This + 5 day/week workouts & my body has transformed. 3 days ago I started a 1 meal/day Keto & wow in just 3 days my stomach area looks so much better & I will keep this up until I reach my goal weight of 175LBS from a start weight of 225LBS.

    I was in gymnastics and soccer and during workouts, i constrated on the full motion of my body. Stretching is just as important, besides that it saves you from injury and you add range of motion, you also extend your miscle strength closer to the joints.

    • @ralphstanley1754
      @ralphstanley1754 8 หลายเดือนก่อน

      I agree with this one. Stretching before work really saves you. It helps to warm up your muscles and increase your blood flow. It also helps reduce stress and tension, energizing and motivating you. I also back myself with Bromantane from Nextchems to help me focus and keep my energy.

  • @mrlafayette1964

    Spot on about resting 4 to 5 minutes between sets...it also allows the muscle to recover from the previous set and prepare for the next , thus more productive and also less chance for injury. The focus on the eccentric part of the rep is also good for avoiding injury.
    Slow it down and good form, avoiding injury is the name of the game especially if you're 40 plus.

Sometimes I feel like I am choking gasping for air. I had an endoscopy done and it's all okay. When I feel like bloated my BP goes very high. I also take a Betaine HCL and Bile salts I have no gallbladder and sometimes this bloating is so scary. I was thinking of trying the Tudca that Dr Berg suggests.

      @@NansGlobalKitchen so long as you’re doing keto (with no snacks of course and two to one meal a day, which is what I do) primarily you must resist the urge to gorge if you eat so much, perhaps.
      So if you can you should have more substantial proteins like Beef or Salmon (so long as you don’t have an allergy) to _become full._ Other than or along side that, it’s a matter of _omitting foods_ that cause you to bloat. I dropped Monk Fruit/Erythritol, Caffeine filled foods like Chocolate (which are basically a laxative, honestly), Seltzer (of course), stopped gorging on nuts (which are hard to digest) and some dairy sugars like double cream. I haven’t hit the wall with cheeses such as Brie just yet, so I don’t believe soft cheeses would be an issue, at least.
      Cheese has fat and the body will go after that fat first so you may not lose weight for a while, but the main thing is to _make sure to eat nutrient dense foods that make you full so your body is not searching for nutrients,_ avoid eating foods that are known to make people bloat like: beans, caffeine, sugar alcohols, carbonated water and so on, even if they are low on the glycemic index and do not impact ketosis, such as these foods, then this will push bloating to the back end of your day, if at no point and time during your day, at all.
      It takes a few days but you just need to be consistent. Meat can also be hard to digest as well. So you may need to up your stomach acid. I ordered Tudca as the start of my Keto journey and that helped, I used it for about 6 months or so, mileage may vary…
      I hope this helps. This is what I did.

    Yes I experiment with this also. I found that if the stomach is empty during a workout, it is far beneficial because digestion uses more energy than any exercise you can perform. But here you are eating and exercising at the same time, it really draws a lot out of the body. Plus the muscles will Take Energy from the food you are digesting and not from the muscle where you want to take it from?

    If going for muscle gain, avoid the cold therapy right after a workout. I personally killed my gains for 7 months doing this and then was curious so I looked it up and there are studies on it. You want to wait at least a couple of hours or even wait until morning. Before is fine and it's great right after for any other type of training like strength or conditioning...you just want to wait with the cold if you're going for muscle growth. Heat on the other hand will accentuate growth and recovery and is great after any sort of training.
    EDIT: And thank you sir, as always you knock it out of the park! 🙏🏻

      @@ponyslavestation4669 Yeah I was starting to get depressed that my pump was gone by the time I got home, it used to last for several hours. Then one night I got curious and decided to skip the 5+ minute ice cold shower I routinely did right after lifting. That night I had my pump still when I went home so I looked into it and found one of AthleanX's and one of Huberman's videos on it. My jaw dropped...I'd been killing my gains by up to 30% for 7 months straight hahaha. Well you live and...hopefully you learn.

      @vazquezcarlos 8 หลายเดือนก่อน +1

      I was going to say I heard it on Huberman and AthleanX as well, but I think they were talking about total immersion cold therapy. Taking a cold shower shouldn't penetrate the muscles that much. I personally tend to take warm showers after my workouts, to wash off the sweat/grime, and then finish it off with cold for a minute or 2. Maybe if it's really hot outside I'll do cold shower the entire time.

    Thank you for THIS: 2:23 it’s the second time you brought this point up and it is sooooooo super important!👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾
    Soooo many trainers actually do this 40 seconds work 10 or 20 seconds of rest and it drives me crazy! Why not just do LISS in that case? Thank you for being a voice of reason because I’m a trainer and the studies I’ve read said the benefit is usually in at least DOUBLING the time of rest (and again that is AT THE VERY LEAST). I rarely see anyone do it the way I do it; 20 seconds of high intensity and 40+ seconds of rest (plus meaning more if needed). I even have YOUR voice in my head saying “Let your heart slow WAY down!”😂

    • @EroticOnion23

      The whole point of rest-pause and interval is so that ATP isn't replenished, so your muscles will have to work harder and adapt with more mitochondria/more efficient lactic acid removal/more microtears. But yes between trainings full recovery is much more important...

    There are reasons to train with shorter rest periods. I only leave 1 min between sets, I reach failure faster, sure. However, my muscular endurance has improved noticeably in my Jiu-jitsu sparring. I am able to exert more effort against my training partners for longer these days.
    I think if you're specifically trying to build as much muscle as possible then taking 4 to 5 min between sets is fine, but personally my work outs feel way more efficient with shorter rest periods.

    • @sapinva
      @sapinva 8 หลายเดือนก่อน +1

      Don't think you have to worry about getting "bulked up" (or resting) lifting 12 lbs. Also 15 reps is way outside of the high intensity range. The 6-10 rep range is typically what builds the most muscle, lower reps for more power, and higher reps for endurance. Low reps w/ heavy weights is what requires the most rest between sets.
