Jonny speaks some real truth in this podcast, the link to the webinar is below, which has the visuals to go with this podcast.   WEBINAR   TAKING 100% RESPONSIBILITY Where you are in life right now financially, physically, mentally. It's precisely how you've designed it. You are responsible for where you are at in life right now. Nobody else.   - It's not your past. It's not your location. It's not the government. It's not the president. It's not the party that got in. It's not any of that. It's not the news or what's being covered in the news or some big scandal. It's not your age. You're not too young and you're not too old. It's not tech skills. A lot of people say, "I'm not a techy," or "I'm not tech savvy." People say all these different things, "I'm not tech savvy. Therefore, I can't do it," or "I'm computer illiterate. Therefore, I can't do it."   - It's not your class. It's not your sex. Male, female, it's not that.

Why being yourself is a myth...   An alternative perspective to why people REALLY struggle to look and feel how they REALLY want to. It has nothing to do with diets, workouts, DNA until people address the elephant in the room. And sadly most people don't even know the elephant exists! This is Part 1. Stay with me on this series as I've been researching this now for the better part of 18 months to answer the simple question why people can have everything they need to transform their health and they still remain the same. As always please share, comment and ask questions and I'll be happy to chat.       CLICK TO FIND OUT MORE ABOUT MY DNA COACH ACADEMY    LINKS: Jonny's Instagram Jonny's Youtube 

INSOMNIA 101   What is insomnia?  The roles of fatigue   Lactic Acid as a trigger  Leveraging electrolytes  How can we improve it?   CLICK TO FIND OUT MORE ABOUT MY DNA COACH ACADEMY    LINKS: Jonny's Instagram Jonny's Youtube  Disclaimer as always. The outcome is to discuss my thoughts on this subject. I don't claim to be an expert and for anxiety, depression or insomnia you should always seek professional medical advice and support. I feel like there are lots of taboos around these subjects, and was a reason we did an episode on the podcast talking openly about these issues in the industry.   This podcast is merely to get a transparent discussion happening. Again, it's important to note this is not aimed at being a counselling session or alike, rather some biological perspectives and reviews of the literature and my personal research.

VASODILATION 101    What is Vasodilation?  Why is it important? How can we improve it?   Vasodilation is the process by which the blood vessels in the body relax and widen, allowing for greater blood flow. One of the main triggers of vasodilation is nitric oxide. Therefore, anything that increases nitric oxide production in the body will also increase vasodilation, the sensation bodybuilders refer to as the “pump.”   From an athlete’s perspective, vasodilation allows for an increase in oxygen and nutrient delivery within the body, allowing for greater energy production for the muscles. Vasodilation also helps improve the removal of catabolic waste products from the muscles like lactic acid and ammonia that contribute to muscle fatigue and failure.   CLICK TO FIND OUT MORE ABOUT MY DNA COACH ACADEMY    LINKS: Jonny's Instagram Jonny's Youtube

What is Estrogen? Estrogen is a feminising hormone that both men and women have in the body (women just have more of). Estrogen is made out of testosterone and is important to maintaining healthy bones, skin, nails and cardiovascular health. It is an extremely important hormone to have but like anything, if we have to much it begins to be problematic.   Estrogen Dominance   Estrogen is proliferative, which means it stimulates growth. It stimulates fat growth so those that are estrogen dominant find it hard to lose weight especially in estrogen fat locations such as lower abdomen, love handles, hips, buttocks, thighs and backs of the arms and may show signs of blood clotting, fluid retention, poor circulation and headaches. Other signs being estrogen dominant are:   • Increased worry. • Exaggerated response to stress. • Heightened intuition ‘gut instinct’. • Run on autopilot. • Craves sugar and chocolate. • Mood swings around menstrual cycle or moon phases. • Bloated around abdomen, hip and thighs.
