Looking for Springtime.


Our modern lifestyle of endless food and no exercise send signals to our body that we are heading into famine and will not likely survive.  The way we were originally created allows our brain to adapt to this “pretend winter” that we have placed our body in.  It responds by storing energy and preparing for survival during long periods of famine and winter.  This was a normal part of society millions of years ago when we were gatherers and hunters.  The body has built in defense mechanisms to help us survive until spring returns.  These survival mechanisms include depression, slowed metabolism, stored body fat and non-critical body system shut down.  All but our crucial body systems slow to a crawl or cease to function.  We live in a constant state of survival mode, or body corrosion.  Chronic stress in our modern lives has much the same affect.  But what if we chose to live our lives in a constant state of springtime?  Could it be that simple?

As I have stated before, the brain is blind, and it only knows what we choose to tell it.  Our bodies will live in the state that we tell it to.  It will always function according to the way it was created, which was to live in nature.  Therefore, physical exercise triggers growth and power.  It tells the body that life is good and abundant.  

The body is made up of hundreds of things that trigger growth and corrosion, but for our purposes we are going to focus on two of them.  The strength builders called, cytokine-10, and the corrosion helpers cytokine-6.  These are both used during exercise.  Exercise produces corrosion and our bodies release C6, which then triggers growth and repair shortly after which causes our body to produce the C10 necessary to make us strong.  It's an easy way of explaining the principle of overload that we have all heard about most of our lives.  The amount of growth you produce is directly proportional to the intensity and duration that you exercise.  That is why it is important to exercise at a moderate to high intensity level for at least 4-5 days each week.  Your body will then be in a consistent state of growth and repair.  

Until next time, keep working on the healthy, happy life you deserve.
