If cortisol is produced due to a stressful environment, then you will retain glucose in the form of fat.

A tendon in your calf determines how much stored energy in fat should be stored or released during excersize.

As a child, you spent upwards of 3 hours a day running, jumping, playing, burning energy.

As an adult, your ability to dissipate waste product from your body slows, increasing inflammation due to lattic and euric acid build up. This can be corrected using a hot tubs heat and water pressure.

Weight Loss using Cardio Loading

While, I'm not on this journey, many of you seem to be. So, let me provide you with my experience. (I was going to reference a previous post, but I can't find it. )

Weight loss is a combination of Vo2 Max, Heart Rate, Stamina, Cardio Load, Duration, Carb Loading vs Carb deficits, Muscle engagement, agility, mobility, the Achilles Tendon, White Fat and Brown Fat.

Let's start with testing your Vo2 Max. Breath out and hold your breath. Count the number of seconds before your body demands you breath in. The longer you can wait to breath in, the better your Vo2 Max. The number of seconds you should be able to hold your breath in this state determines if you're below, at, above, athletic and professional athlete. Every 6 to 8 seconds places you into the next category. On average, most people can hold their breath in this state for 12 to 16 seconds.

Why is Vo2 Max important. If you have low Vo2 Max, you can't generate enough energy to burn calories. It's that simple. The higher your Vo2 Max, the more oxygen your system can store in blood to be turned into energy by your Mitochondria. And, if you're in a very active athletic state, you will have 2 or more Mitochondria per cell. On the opposite end, studies now show that when your Vo2 Max drops below a certain threshold you will no longer be independent. Think of moving into an assisted living home just before this happens. And, people who maintain muscle and high Vo2 Max's live longer and healthier lives, because they can both fight off infection more easily for longer durations, and recover faster that people their same age, who are sedentary.

Vo2 Max, as I stated, lets you work longer and harder during Cardio Load sessions, also known as Stamina. How long can you do what you want to do? This is where athletes compete in specific categories to see who can bench press the highest amount of reps at a specific weight, or who can bench press the most amount of weight in one press. For our purposes though, we want to engage as many muscles as possible for a long as possible. If you work on a farm and enjoy feeding the cattle by hand, then you understand this concept. Also, those who do HIIT training engage lots of different muscles while working through a course. The more muscles that you can engage in a movement, at a steady state, the more energy you will burn.

Let's not dismiss the importance of heart rate, as it also helps determine what your cardio load is, as well. Maintaining a higher heart rate for longer periods of time, also includes taking in larger amounts of oxygen, and forcing your system to find a steady state between the amount of oxygen your lungs can transfer to the blood while extracting CO2 out of the blood. Occasionally pushing this system in sprints, helps your system understand that from time to time, you will need to push yourself beyond your steady state. (We will come back to this point, later.)

You may be wondering why the Achilles Tendon plays such an important role in weight loss. A recent study reported that there was a direct correlation between the activation of a calf muscle and fat management. Another report, concerning cancer, detailed that there are two types of fat in the human body .. white and brown fat .. White fat is stored because the body needs energy on reserve when you perform cardio excersizes. Brown fat is stored when you live in colder regions because it's used to warm you when you shiver. So, what's the connection with white fat to the Achilles Tendon? When the muscles this tendon is attached to is engaged, it tells the body that you need to burn higher amounts of energy. Which is why a lot of people walk. But, if you really want to get the benefits from this system, then you need to determine how you are walking, and refer back to the Vo2 Max and Stamina.

How long can you activate your Achilles Tendon and through what activities? Walking, stairs, pushing, running, and jumping are the main ways that the Achilles tendon is activated. Each, however, activates more of the Achilles Tendon, that the previous. Walking will only activate enough of the tendon to stabilize the foot. And, when you consider most people walk on flat surfaces vs going on rocky trails, there is very little activation from walking. Stairs can be a great way to activate the Achilles tendon when you don't have hills to walk up and down. But, to get the most benefit from stairs, you have focus on walking up the stairs on just your toes. Think calf raises at this point. In a calf raise you use the balls of your feet to stabilize your foot while your calves raise the weight. Pushing, stretches the Achilles even further, by forcing you on your toes to push a heavy object. Running, can be detrimental to your knees if you don't run on the balls of your feet. It's your Achilles tendon that's taking the impact and allowing your feet to absorb the energy from hard surfaces, instead of translating it up to your knees and hips. If you have access to a basket ball gym floor, this is even better, as the floor provides some cushion when you run or jump. Running though, requires a lot more work from your calf muscles, and for most people, running on your toes will exhaust you after 30 breaths. If you can run on your toes, keep going. If you can't, then using another excersize that activates the Achiles Tendon may be better for you. The goal of weight loss through the Achilles Tendon activation comes from sustained effort through endurance and longevity. Which brings us to jumping, as in jump rope and box jumps, provide the most powerful movement for the Achilles tendon. This sends a very clear and strong signal to your body that you are going to burning a lot of energy. And, they can be done in sets of short bursts to help you maintain your breathing pace.

Let's go back to muscle engagement now. We've looked at how the Achilles tendon plays a crucial role in telling the body that you're going to be using a lot of energy. This signal tells the body, liver and other enzymes, that you need to convert white fat into energy. You can tell how efficiently this system is working based on how quickly you start swetting and how profusely you swet. People with higher stamina's start swetting almost immediately. The reason for this is that the system is anticipating a high cardio load and and excess consumption of ATP almost immediately. Thus, glucose in the blood is turned into ATP, or Oxidized into CO2 and Water at higher rates, than when you're at rest. This is why some cells can have 2 or more Mitochondria in them, just to keep up with the load requirements. By monitoring how much you swet in the least swetty place on your body, you can measure / determine if your cardio load was sufficient for your workout.

For me, this is my chest. Which is why I take pics of after each cardio session. There are 3 stages of swet prints I have .. tongue status, Billy Status, and Beyond Billy status. My optimal cardio load is Billy Status, where the swet print on my shirt looks like a billy goat.

The more muscles that you engage with your Achilles Tendon means, that you are going to burn a lot more energy during your workout. As examples, we return to walking up stairs, HIIT training, jump rope, box jumps. If you walk up stairs without using the hand rails you are not only using the major muscles to move your legs, but you are using secondary muscles needed to stabilize your body. HIIT training, esp those movements with complex twists and turns (like a turkish get up) will engage more muscles. In a Turkish get up, you are having to engage different muscles throughout the movement to stabilize the weight above your head, as you move from a lying position to a standing position. Jump rope is another excersize that really engages a lot of muscles in the body to both lift you off the floor and stabilize you when you land. This excersize engages the Achilles tendon immensely as it's being activated both when you push down to jump and push back up when you land. This movement is replicated slightly when you push a cart. Box jumps are a great way to engage a lot of muscles in one activity. The more you can do, by jumping onto and off of the box, the higher your cardio load will be as well as the activation of the Achilles tendon.

Swimming, rowing and grappling are great cardio excersizes, but don't engage the Achilles Tendon. Their mechanisms to engage fat burning are different, and not well understood, other than to basically say that maybe other smaller muscles attached to other ligaments maybe sending out the same or similar signal as the Achilles Tendon. But, by contrast, the signal is much weaker. The one thing that grappling in particular does is it gets the muscles used to quick movements. Couple that with good agility and flexibility, and you have a good warm up routine, if you're not into yoga. Specifically, rowing may seem to engage the Achilles Tendon, but it's engagement is very short, in comparison to a stair master, and the engagement is only in one direction - to push you away from the fan.

Which brings us to Agility, Mobility, and Flexibility. Your tendons and muscles need to be able to handle the many different types of stresses you will place on them, if you do jumping excersizes and quick movements. Tendons don't stretch and don't heal unless the muscles they are attached to work. This is because the blood tendons receive comes through the muscles they are attached to. So, to keep your tendons well lubricated, you need to warm up those muscles and prepare the tendons for the movements and excersizes that you're going to do. A good warm up routines is an animal flow yoga stretch. And, for a cool down to help insure that blood has flushed the tendons, also do some stretching excersizes.

The last topic I want to cover is mixing up the routines. The body loves nothing more than to settle into a routine. Your cardio load should not be a consistent routine ever day. Instead, you should do something different everyday. This forces the body to rethink how it's going to manage the cardio load for a bunch of different activities, instead of knowing .. Hey we're going to go running, so only these muscles need this extra energy at this moment .. vs .. How do I get the energy from the fat as efficiently to the muscles being used today? ..

As a side note .. I may be posting a lot about using the stair master a lot, but if you look at the routine, it's changing on a daily basis. While the legs and more importantly the Achilles tendon is being activated every day for 20 to 40 mins, I'm also engaging other muscles when I can to increase the cardio load. No hands, breathing through my nose, doing more stairs, doing them faster, or walking down stairs .. all of these things contribute to my body having to figure out how to accommodate the changing environment. Granted, they seem small, but when you're working on a stair master for 40 mins different muscles start complaining by cramping. This is a sign that the body didn't account for this activity today.

For those wondering, I burn 4000 calories a day. I've been told by doctors I can't use carb deprivation to loose weight, as it was negatively impacting my life overall. So, I can only go forward with increasing my overall cardio load and caloric intake.
