Sedfiter Science

Yo Sedfiters!!

I've been following those guys for so many years and this morning I found them! together ! in the same video!

In the case you don't know them, Tyler RSD, aka Owen is a pickup artist, founder of Real Social Dynamics, and he is basically one of the most influent PUA of today.

Elliott is a really influent  youtuber, he is offering his knowledge on many topics around fitness, bodybuilding and health.

In this video Tyler explains 6 basic mindsets to put you in state when you are gaming!

1. Approach All
2. Minimize time in between social interactions
3. Never judge yourself
4. Find something funny about it
5. Keep it short if you're not in a great mood
6. burn it to the ground if you are

Yo sedfiters!

Here's an interesting experiment video I found.

Since monohydrated creatine
is better absorbed when properly diluted in water, it might be a good idea to drink it with HOT water!

Here's the experiment that shows that creatine dissolve faster in hot water!

So add that creatine to your tea or coffe folks!

Growth hormone (GH) is a small protein that is made by the pituitary gland and secreted into the bloodstream. GH production is controlled by a complex set of hormones produced in the hypothalamus of the brain, in the intestinal tract ( ghrelin ) and pancreas.

We all know the benefits of growth hormone when it comes to build muscle.It boosts protein production, promotes the utilization of fat, interferes with the action of insulin, and raises blood sugar levels and it also raises levels of insulin-like growth factor-1 (IGF-1), another hormone that boosts protein production.

Interesting huh? But how we can enhance the production of this hormone for more gains in the gym? Fasting is the answer.


Don't be scared, we are talking about small periods of fasting.


It has been proved by an experiment on 6 males, that fasting enhances GH, more details here http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC329619/

But how to introduce fasting into our daily diet?
Since fasting means not eating, we all fast at least once, and it's during the night.
In fact GH is secreted during the sleep time, but it's not enough.
In order to benefit of this hormone we are going to delay the hour of ours first meal, having this way, more time to fast in the morning.

For example, let's say we are going to have our first meal at 1:00pm and we had or last meal at 10:00am, then we made 15 hours of fasting!

That's enough to enhance GH secretion, and burn fat as well!

So happy fasting to everyone!

If you are someone like me that likes to reach exhaustion every day, then this article might be for you.

Overtraining is a physical, behavioral, and emotional condition that occurs when the volume and intensity of an individual's exercise exceeds their recovery capacity. They cease making progress, and can even begin to lose strength and fitness. Overtraining is a common problem in weight training, but it can also be experienced by runners and other athletes.
We have to first understand the difference between Overtraining and Overreaching. 

• Overreaching is a short-term decline in performance that can be recovered from in several days.

• Overtraining occurs when it takes weeks or months to recover. This is actually an extremely rare occurrence—as long as nutrition and supplementation are adequate.

Overreaching is our friend, if we want to grow up muscles we have to break down those muscle fibers and then have the proper time to recover.
Overtraining at the other side can be a serious barrier to our goals, lets see how to fight it....
There are two types of overtrain, muscular and cns overtrain. (CNS stands for
Central nervous system )

Muscular Overtrain

Basically when we don't let the proper time to our muscles to recover. This problem is easy to overcome.

•  Sleep at least 7-8 hours
• Let muscles group the proper time to recover before training them again around 24-48h
• Maintain a proper nutrition and supplementation

CNS Overtrain

Central nervous system overtraining is a more serius issue. It doesn't just impact the quads, chest, or back, but rather the entire body. Your CNS is responsible for generating muscular contractions in all types of training, so when you stack workout upon workout, eventually it can tire out.

What happens is that the brain respond to mental and body fatigue (in order to give enough resources to our brain) with stress, that basically means cortisol release.

Cortisol, known more formally as hydrocortisone , is a steroid hormone, more specifically a glucocorticoid, produced by the zona fasciculata of the adrenal cortex.It is released in response to stress and a low level of bloodglucocorticoids. Its primary functions are to increase blood sugar through gluconeogenesis; suppress the immune system; and aid in fat, protein and carbohydrate metabolism. It also decreases bone formation. Various synthetic forms of cortisol are used to treat a variety of diseases. cit. Wikipedia.

The main problem with cortisol is that it's an hormone that inhibits protein synthesis ( muscle growth ) and others important body functions like the immune system.

Prolonged cortisol secretion (which may be due to chronic stress) results in significant physiological changes, you may want consider talk to a doctor.

For those reasons we feel sore, weak and we can't grow muscles up.

We have to find the right balance between training and rest, to do so, lets analyse some stress signs that we should know:

Stress Warning Signs and Symptoms
Cognitive Symptoms	Emotional Symptoms
Memory problems Inability to concentrate Poor judgment Seeing only the negative Anxious or racing thoughts Constant worrying	Moodiness Irritability or short temper Agitation, inability to relax Feeling overwhelmed Sense of loneliness and isolation Depression or general unhappiness
Physical Symptoms	Behavioral Symptoms
Aches and pains Diarrhea or constipation Nausea, dizziness Chest pain, rapid heartbeat Loss of sex drive Frequent colds	Eating more or less Sleeping too much or too little Isolating yourself from others Procrastinating or neglecting responsibilities Using alcohol, cigarettes, or drugs to relax Nervous habits (e.g. nail biting, pacing)

For more info about stress signs: http://www.helpguide.org/mental/stress_signs.htm
Lets make clear that it's not only the training part that cause CNS overtrain, but also the lifestyle.
Any type of everyday problem can produce stress (financial, bad habits, sentimental etc etc...).

There are a lot of resources on the net to fix those problems, make sure to find a solution before hitting the gym too hard.

A quick solution may be meditation:
