I got it from a friend of mine. I would say the course is worth the money. The following is the notes on adrenaline from his course.
Adrenaline is a hormone produced by the adrenal glands and is released in response to stress. Adrenaline released for short periods is not a big deal but becomes problematic when it is prolonged. When it is prolonged it lowers levels of LH Lutenizing hormone, which in turn lowers testosterone production.
Adrenaline receptors in abundance in stubborn fat areas: stomach hips, glutes etc. When adrenaline is sensitive we utilize energy from stubborn fat areas for stressful situations. When we are stressed too often the receptors get worn out and the brain gets the signal that you do not have enough energy stored in stubborn fat areas. Subsequently more energy is stored in stubborn fat areas when you eat.
Adrenaline is highly inflammatory and causes a subsequent increase in cortisol to drive down the inflammation.
Adrenaline resistance comes from too much stress: work, poor sleep, relationships, financial, excess caffeine consumption, stimulants like most fat burners, too much intense exercise.
Balance adrenaline by adding in more restoration activities: swimming, tai chi, chi kung, yoga, joint mobility, meditation, massages, vacations.
If you do three adrenaline workouts per week you need to do three restoration workouts per week as well.
Supplements that help with adrenaline resistance (complete with the supplements he recommends; see the links):
- Theanine: amino acid that helps with relaxation. Take 100mg two times per day. Also high in green tea.
-
Reishi mushroom : modulates cortisol and helps with stress management at 500mg 2x per day.
- Rhodiola : An adaptogen that also helps with increases oxygen uptake.
-
Siberian ginseng : another adaptogen and also helps the hormonal pathways go from pregnenelone to DHEA rather than to cortisol.
- B vitamins : B vitamins get depleted from too much stress. 1 tab 2-3 times per day with meals.
-
Maca: 2-3 tablespoons per day: helps with adrenal health. Also helps women make more progesterone and is great for estrogen metabolism.
-
Systemic enzymes; lower inflammation and helps with recovery. 2 caps three times per day in between meals.
