“1.?Cortisol combined with catecholamines, like it is in short-term stress, helps us burn fat.
2.?Cortisol combined with NPY, as it is in chronic stress, equals increased fat storage.”—Dr. Jade Teta for TNation.com
“Finally, if you really want to beat cortisol you should develop a new appreciation for what I call rest-based living. Find as many opportunities as possible to prioritize R&R workouts. These include naps, sex/physical affection, massage, foam rolling, laughter, time with pets, leisure walking, sauna, hot baths, contrast showers, meditation, etc. All of these activities have application in lowering cortisol.“—Dr. Jade Teta for TNation.com
WHY DOES THE FRONT OF MY SHOULDER HURT?
“If you’ve read any of my articles then you know I’m a stickler for posture. Posture is the basis of proper movement and when your posture is messed up it short-circuits your athletic potential. It may not be the case with every individual, but my experience has been that most movement disorders originate not with the way we move during our one hour of exercise per day, but rather the way we hold our body the remaining twenty three.
Shoulder impingement is one of the most common postural issues, and anterior shoulder pain is often a sign of some degree of shoulder impingement. While this is a valid assumption, to me, impingement isn’t a valid diagnosis. It’s the musculoskeletal equivalent of “diagnosing” someone with a cough. There are treatments for a cough. There’s an entire aisle at your pharmacy full of cough remedies, and likewise, the most common treatment option for shoulder impingement remains something along the lines of, “Take an aspirin and rest.” But impingement, like a cough, is a symptom of a larger problem. There is certainly something to be said for managing symptoms, but the problem is never truly solved until it’s dealt with at its source.”—Robert Camacho for Breaking Muscle
