Always Fly with a Tennis Ball in Your Carry-On

Always Fly with a Tennis Ball in Your Carry-On

Whether you’re getting around by car, train, or plane, traveling can be uncomfortable and inconvenient, even if you love it. Your flight can get delayed by a lot. Sitting in close quarters for a long flight can slow blood circulation and cause the muscles to cramp. Your ears can pop during take-off and landing. So pay attention to some tips that will make your next trip a breeze! For example, make sure you have an empty water bottle in your carry-on. That way, you can get past security with no problem and then just fill the bottle up at the airport. Most have drinking fountains, so you’ll save some cash!

Roll it along your ankles, calves, legs, wrists, back, and shoulders. - Chewing on some gum actually keeps your ears from popping during take-off and landing. - A trash bag or two will be a lifesaver when you come out of the airport at your destination only to be met by…rain! - The dryer sheets will keep your garments smelling fresh and clean like they’ve come straight from the laundry. - If your luggage is marked as “Fragile,” it should be handled more carefully by baggage personnel. Plus, it’ll likely be put on top of the other bags. - Grab a binder clip and clamp it onto the blades of your razor when you pack. This will save you from any accidental—and painful—injuries. - You don’t need to go out and buy expensive and flashy luggage. Use a plain basic suitcase and tie a bright ribbon around one of the handles. - When you’re packing, wrap your shoes up in shower caps. This will prevent the bottoms from dirtying the rest of your clothes. - Whether you’re flying or driving, keep all your chargers and power cords in a good-sized sunglasses case. - You know those pill containers with little boxes for each day of the week? They’re also a great way to store and organize your jewelry when you’re traveling. - Keep your shirt collars nice and crisp by lining them with a belt. - Most airlines provide a pillow and blanket so that passengers can get a nap in during the flight. Take that little pillow and put it behind your lower back. - If you’re going to be switching time zones, start making changes to your sleep pattern the day before you leave. - The air inside airplane cabins tends to be very dry. Drink plenty of water, or another drink that contains electrolytes, to prevent dehydration.

9 Brain Exercises to Strengthen Your Mind

How to improve your improve your memory, sharpen your attention and focus, and boost your brain health? These gymnastics for the brain were developed by Yoshiro Tsutsumi, a Japanese researcher and author of the book Finger Self-Massage Yoshiro Tsutsumi. Starting From Scratch. The set of simple exercises described in this work focuses on improving general well-being and supporting brain health. If you repeat this short finger workout on a daily basis, the stimulation traveling from your fingers directly to your brain will help to rejuvenate your body and make your brain more efficient. Each fingertip has more than 3,000 mechanoreceptors, which act as a highway to your brain (particularly its sensory cortex). When you do a finger workout, you improve synapse connections and fire neurons, which is great for the functioning of your brain. TIMESTAMPS: Exercise #1 1:39 Exercise #2 2:45 Exercise #3 4:01 Exercise #4 5:03 Exercise #5 6:41 Exercise #6 7:06 Exercise #7 7:29 Exercise #8 8:42 Exercise #9 9:02 #brainexercises #memoryimprovment #brainhealth Music by Epidemic Sound https://www.epidemicsound.com/ SUMMARY: - #1. Repeat this exercise 15 times. Your breathing should be a bit faster than usual. The most important thing is to do the exercise smoothly and not to hurry. Try not to lower your hands, and coordinate your movements and breathing. - #2. Repeat each movement at least 10 times. Your breathing should be rhythmical, and your fingers should be spread as much as possible. - #3. Repeat these movements at least 10 times. Make sure you bend and straighten each finger thoroughly and completely. - #4. When the brain ages, your memory, attention span, and concentration weaken. Luckily, this finger workout can help you deal with this problem. The following exercises will help you improve your memory. - #5. First of all, tightly press together the fingertips of your thumb and index finger on your right hand. You should slightly curve the uppermost part of your index finger. Repeat this exercise 20 times for each hand. - #6. With the fingertip of the thumb on your right hand, press down on the bottom of your right index finger, middle finger, ring finger, and pinky in turn. You should apply effort to do this exercise. After you repeat this motion 20 times, do the same for your left hand. - #7. As you've probably understood, your brain is tightly connected to your hands. Since most people have one dominant hand, the brain hemisphere connected to this hand is more developed than the other one. Thus, lefties have a more active right hemisphere, and right-handed people enjoy a more developed left hemisphere. To activate both hemispheres, you can try the following exercises. - #8. Try to perform everyday activities like brushing your teeth, eating, opening doors, or writing with the help of your nondominant hand. This can develop new connections between the 2 hemispheres of your brain and encourage the activity of the less vigorous hemisphere. - #9. Start to write by hand more. This activity provides perfect brain stimulation and improves neuroplasticity. Specialists recommend this method to patients who suffer from memory issues or dementia.

Hormone modulation/Libido

two 20 hour fasts - more GH response

During Fast

salt

catecholamines too high too long, adrenal fatigue, allocate caffeine to morning, have it in morning to catecholamines aren't constantly elevated

working out in fasted state

Eating during window:

prebiotic fibers (resetting gut biome)

Avoid Grains

higher protein intake

Switching proteins out, get diverse meals

Saturated fats

Additional Supps

men should take boron

iodine in through seaweed

saw palmetto 

CoQ10 (foods that boost it)

Diet Breaks

1 full week off after 6-8 weeks "diet breaks" bring calories back up to maintenance 

Insulin Sensitivity 

When you fast for an extended period of time, the fat deposits that have accumulated over time become the fuel that cells need to operate. As a result, the size of the excess fat droplet gets smaller over time.

 

As the size of the lipid droplet in muscle and liver cells decrease, those cells become more responsive to insulin. In other words, by reducing the size of the fat droplet, insulin becomes more powerful

Study - American Journal of Clinical Nutrition 

Nonobese subjects (8 men and 8 women) fasted every other day for 22 d

Subjects lost 2.5 +/- 0.5% of their initial body weight and 4 +/- 1% of their initial fat mass

Glucose and ghrelin did not change significantly from baseline with alternate-day fasting, whereas fasting insulin decreased 57 +/- 4%

https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/1...

Triiodothyronine (T3) is a thyroid hormone that plays vital roles in the body's metabolic rate, heart and digestive functions, muscle control, brain development - it affects almost every physiological process in the body

Thyroxine (T4) is the main hormone secreted into the bloodstream by the thyroid gland. It plays vital roles in digestion, heart and muscle function, brain development and maintenance of bones

Thyroid-stimulating hormone (also known as thyrotropin or TSH) is a pituitary hormone that stimulates the thyroid gland to produce thyroxine (T4), and then triiodothyronine (T3) which stimulates the metabolism of almost every tissue in the body

https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/1...

Length of fasting should be based off the effects of GH and cortisol 

Growth Hormone

HGH deficiency in adults typically leads to higher levels of body fat, lower lean body mass and decreased bone mass (osteopenia)

HGH only lasts a few minutes in the bloodstream - it goes to the liver for metabolism, where it is converted into a number of other growth factors, the most important of which is Insulin Like Growth Factor 1 (IGF1)

Study - Growth Hormone & IGF Research 

24 h of fasting led to an increase in levels of basal free GH, mean free GH, mean total GH whilst GHBP levels remained similar in 7 female and 4 male normal-weight subjects

Concluded that a 24-hour fast leads to parallel increases in free and total GH levels whilst having no change in GHBP levels or the fraction of free GH

The protein-retaining effects of growth hormone during fasting involve inhibition of muscle-protein breakdown

The present study was designed to test the hypothesis that GH may be a principal mediator of protein conservation during fasting and to assess the underlying mechanisms

During Fast

Lowering insulin rids the body of excess salt and water. Insulin causes salt and water retention in the kidney

Have Majority of Caffeine in the Morning

Elevated catecholamines + caffeine = adrenal burnout 

Work Out Fasted 

The Journal of Physiology

Exercise in the fasted state facilitates fibre type-specific intramyocellular lipid breakdown and stimulates glycogen resynthesis in humans

https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/arti...

Eating Window 

Higher Protein Intake 

Published in International Journal of Obesity, researchers looked at protein intake and lean body mass preservation during energy intake restriction in overweight older adults
