Basics of Bioenergetics – Finding Your Fuel

Homeostasis Study: An Austrian-Canadian endocrinologist by the name of Hans Selye used the work of Cannon and Richet to explain how certain ‘stimuli’ and ‘stress’ can impact our homeostasis and cause us to adapt and improve. To prove his theory, he took a lab full of rats and found that if he gradually subjected them to an increased dose of poison they began to develop a greater resistance to it, so much so that certain rats remained unharmed when later subjected to dosages that had previously killed them. ‘By giving gradually increasing doses of various alarming stimuli, one may raise the resistance of animals… rats pre-treated with a certain agent will resist such doses of this agent, which would be fatal for not pre-treated controls.’ Our bodies need fat to assist in vitamin absorption, to aid hormone regulation and even aid optimal brain function. Healthy dietary fat should constitute “25–35% of calories”.’ of ‘printed fitness’ cannot be trusted. It’s misleading, misinformed and wrongly mass-broadcasted as a solution to all. Olympic-style lifting includes two competition lifts: the snatch and the clean and jerk, of which the clean and jerk is considered the best lift for developing strength, speed, and power.Strength, speed and power are closely related. Strength is the body’s ability to generate force. Speed is the rate at which someone moves. Power is the product of strength and speed.

To improve, you must ‘expose’ your body to a specific ‘stimulus to the quality or intensity of which it is not adapted’. At times you might not like disrupting your comfy state of homeostasis. Overtraining This creates a situation where leptin is telling the brain that you’re full and satisfied while ghrelin is telling the brain that you’re hungry, leading to strong cravings. The optimal size of a calorie deficit for weight loss can vary based on an individual’s maintenance calorie number. A 25% reduction in food intake might be too aggressive for someone who maintains their weight at 2000 calories per day, while someone who maintains their weight at 4000 calories per day could potentially achieve a faster rate of fat loss with a larger calorie deficit.Unassociated: Very general, often fun, multi-skill training. Examples include running, jumping, climbing and games. Structural Strength Training, which focuses on building muscle mass and strength simultaneously, can be highly effective for increasing overall strength. By improving muscle mass and strength, you can break through plateaus and improve your overall physical performance. The body’s innate power can be reawakened by stimulating physiological processes through a system of practices that include Cold Therapy, Breathing, and Commitment. These practices can help to trigger deeper physiological layers and restore the body to its natural state. Why? Because of Sherrington’s Law of Irradiation which states that when you contract one muscle hard, the muscles around it and connected to it contract hard as well.
