So far pretty cool results. First night I only got up once and the energy at work was awesome (i start at 5:30 am). Last night I slept 10 hrs. and also got up only once. In my workout today my squats flew up. I’m getting ready to take a power nap using the device. Then I will use it on my elbow. This will be interesting! You asked me to remind you to send a new magnet. Hope all is well.

date Tue, Apr 22, 2008 at 11:34 AM

Very interesting things have transpired since using the device (ONE WEEK). My sleep has very much improved as in I only get up once a night to urinate. Three times I slept through the night without waking to use the bathroom. On “Sleep Mode” I fall asleep very quickly, although I use the “Recover Mode” most of the time. I sometimes feel a little groggy after using the “Recover Mode.” My lifts are improving! I haven’t done a “Max Effort Test” yet, but my training lifts are going up. I will do a “Max Effort Test” in the next couple of weeks. My energy throughout the day is phenomenal, especially in the morning at work (I start at 5:30am.) My “Breath Hold” has improved by 36%!! 50sec. to 68 sec.

I have a question: I sleep in a recliner (back issue) and have the device on the floor, just below my lower back. Would it be better if I somehow attached the device to the back of the chair, bringing it closer to my body? I thought of using some kind of velcro enclosure.

Thanks for including me in this experiment! I can’t wait for more performance surprises!!

date Fri, Apr 25, 2008 at 12:56 PM

I had to write since I’ve had another amazing improvement in the breath holding test. Just 3 nights of utilizing the device (1/2″) from my back, I’ve improved my hold time an additional 25 sec!!! So from an initial 50 sec. to 68 sec. (36% increase) the first week, to 93 seconds. the second week. An improvement of 86% over baseline in two weeks!! Shit!! What the hell is the larger magnet going to do?!?!? Damn! This is fun! Thanks!

date Tue, Apr 29, 2008 at 1:43 PM

Unfortunately, my elbow has not responded as of yet, but I still have faith. It’s a very nagging injury. Despite the pain, I’ve seen improvement in my training lifts. My bench press where the bar rests 6 inches off my chest suspended from chains (concentric only, movement) has improved by 50 lbs. My box Squat has improved by 55 lbs. My “breath hold” as I have indicated in my last email has improved tremendously; baseline 50 sec. to 93 sec. in a couple of weeks!! I’m hoping that the stronger magnet that you are sending me will help my elbow further.

date Thu, May 15, 2008 at 12:37 PM

Summer has arrived and it was 99 F yesterday and it’s supposed to be 110 F today! Whew! It came on fast. My bench was up another 20 lb., it’s starting to taper, which is understandable since I’ve gained 120 lbs. on that particular exercise !!!(benching off the chains.) I haven’t done a full range max bench as of yet because I’m still having problems with my elbow. Although it seems to be healing.

I did Good Mornings (I haven’t been able to do these for over a year, because of my back) on Tuesday. Worked up to 455 lb. with no pain!! I should have no problem doing dead lifts once again. Cool! Tested my breath hold with no improvement. I think the heat has something to do with it.

hamstring injury about 6 months ago.

As far as my exercises:

PRE injury:

Leg Press: 230 lbs x 10 reps

Squat: 225 lbs x 10 reps

Leg extn: 90 lbs x 10 reps (usually drop set 90×10/80/70/60/50)

Leg curl: 70x 10 reps

Shoulder press: always drop set: 30 lb dumbbells x 10 reps/25/20/15/12/10

Lat Pull Down: 90×10

Bench Press (always used dumbbells): 30 lbs dumbbells

POST injury: Doing mostly bodyweight stuff lower bod. I’ll get you my #’s as far as weights this week. Not training to add size anymore so my workouts are a lot different than they were pre injury.

CARDIO:

20-30 min HIIT (high intensity interval training).

Day one: Warm up 5 min, I do one minute at about level 9 and then one minute about level 3. To 15 minutes then cool down for 5. Total = 20 min. Usually run stairs outside, stepmill, sprint/jog outside as my cardio. I have NO endurance. I am BEAT by the end of the intensity minute and need the ENTIRE minute of recovery. And am still hurting from the intense minute. I’m red faced and panting by the time all is said and done.

Day 2: 30 min to 1 hr light intensity. Usually walking for an hour.

Day 3: HIIT 20 minutes: 30 sec high/level 8. 90 sec low/level 4. Obviously easier than the minute/minute day but still rough. By the end of 20 min, I’m hurting.

Day 4: light intensity activity (usually walk between 1/2 hr and 1 hr). I can walk forever and ever, its the intense sprinting that I lack endurance.

Since the injury, I feel extremely out of shape cardiovascularly. I used to be able to go hardcore for 2 hours of straight cardio. I have never been a huge fan of cardio and have never had too much endurance as far as running or intense cardio. After I got injured, I was not able to do ANYTHING because even upper body they said would put stress on the injury. Its been 6 months. You think the addition of the device will help bring back my cardio endurance quickly? (I hope so! haha)

As far as hamstring pain: i’m usually ok. Sometimes i “feel it” but not too much pain. Its more annoying than painful, if that makes sense. The only time it REALLY HURTS me is if i start sprinting too quickly without it being warmed up properly. I haven’t lifted with a lot of weight since the tear, so I’m unsure how the leg would handle it. Pre injury my legs were insanely strong – quads especially and my hamstrings lag in comparison; hence the reason it was so easy to tear, so says the doctor. Now, I’m not so sure – -probably both are weak, haha.

I did my first resting breath hold last night. Unfortunately, I have come down with either the flu or a terrible cold and my breath hold only lasted for 30 seconds before I thought my head was going to explode. Also, I should probably make note that I am asthmatic – -not sure if you need to know that, if it will effect the results.

I have a question on the device: Am I supposed to physically feel the magnet vibrating? I don’t feel a vibration at all and there isn’t a polarization ring, so I’m not sure if something is wrong. (or maybe the something wrong is me…hahhaah)

Thanks so much,

date Wed, Apr 16, 2008 at 10:51 AM

I am just starting to feel better, thanks! I’m not even sure what I had, but whatever it was, it was a wicked one. Thanks for checking up on me. And likewise, I hope all is well with you!

Here’s an update of my first week: I took your advice and slept for 12 hrs at a time on Wed, Thurs and Friday nights. I laid around a lot of the day on Thurs and Fri with the device on, but couldn’t really sleep all that much. Sat I slept 11 hrs and since, I’ve been getting about 8-9 hrs per night. I noticed that I get exhausted around 9-10 pm. I don’t get the sinking into the bed feeling yet but I do feel like I sleep soundly. I’m still having trouble waking up in the morning, I still want to sleep when my alarm rings (I’ve NEVER been a morning person, its always pretty difficult for me to get up and I LOVE the SNOOZE button…hahaha), but the exhaustion could possibly be related to getting over this crazy virus. I have tons of energy during the day which I’m happily surprised b/c I stopped taking fat burner supplements when I started using the device and also cut my coffee consumption down. My caff. is mostly a few cups of green tea through out the day.

Yesterday was my first day back to training. Now THIS is where I was the most impressed. As I told you my normal cardio pre-EP was a grueling barely 20 min HIIT (High Intensity Interval Training) session before I petered out and gave up. Yesterday was beautiful here in NJ, so I decided to run stairs at the local high school. Although the high intensity (sprint) intervals were still as tough as usual, I WANTED to keep going past 20 min. My total cardio was 35 min, I could have kept going, but it was starting to get cold so I did some push-ups and called it a day. I also noticed, even though the sprints were still difficult, I felt more motivated to push myself throughout the duration of my cardio. It was the first time I felt “a fire” during training since the last time I was training for a show. That athlete mindset of mind over matter, push through it is back, what a great feeling!

I am at work now, so I will do my breath hold tonight and be back in touch.

Thanks so much!

date Fri, Apr 25, 2008 at 11:02 AM

OH MY GOODNESS!!!!!!!! You’re not going to believe this (or actually, you probably will)…my breath hold is 1 min 4 sec (64 s)!!!! Can you believe that???? I know the first one (30 s) was “dirty” but I didn’t think I’d be over a minute so soon!!! WOW!!!! I’m totally impressed beyond words!!!!

I’m SO anxious to start lifting again, next week. I want to beg my trainer to clear me (and my hammy) to get back into the gym sooner…but I know he won’t let me! darn!

date Thu, May 15, 2008 at 9:46 AM

I’m doing great!

My hamstring: so far so good. My trainer has me doing tons of reps of bodyweight stuff so I don’t go overboard and hurt myself again my first few (4 he said) weeks back….holy SORENESS in my legs. Training for reps is soooo much more painful than training for weight. BUT I have to say, I think my endurance is def increasing. I can push to the last rep, even though the muscle group is SCREAMING!!!! I feel the hamstring “twinge” a little but nothing painful or awful, more, I just “feel it.” Cardio…has been great, I actually jumped out of bed to run yesterday morning at 7 am. Getting up early is pretty much unheard of for me, so I was pleasantly excited!! Hopefully that will last.

Still very energetic…not crazy feeling like I was in the beginning so hopefully everything hormonal managed to catch up. Feeling GREAT.

I will do the breath hold from home tonight….I’m gonna be sure to do it as you suggested last time, take the loading time perfectly, pick a spot and do the same every week.

Do you know when your SHR show airs? I can’t wait to listen. Keep me posted!!!! 🙂

Thank you as always!!

date Fri, May 16, 2008 at 12:20 PM

OK AGAIN, I AM SHOCKED…..i really concentrated on the loading phase this time. I took REALLY deep breaths in concentrating on filling my lungs up completely…I think thats what I was doing wrong in the past. My result: are you sitting down…..my hold is up to one minute and 28 seconds!! Could this be true????? Unbelievable, I know my starting hold was “dirty” but yet again, I’m AMAZED!!!!

Just wanted to let you know I got the unit–thanks again. I did recover one night and sleep the other times. Can’t say which was better yet, but I had a pretty good performance at the Tactical Strength Challenge on Sat.

Breath hold was at about 50 seconds and tonight was 1:06

On Apr 14, 2008 at 07:23 PM

Breath hold seated with nose plugged max hold time after 1 min of slow, deep breathing was 51 seconds. Got 8.5 hours of sleep last night.

after 1 week: 1:15

increase of 24 seconds. 24 on the original 51 means your hold is up almost 50%

Sleep has been better and I feel more rested with fewer hours so far. I toss and turn less at night.

date Sun, May 18, 2008 at 11:29 PM

Here are my notes.

Breath hold was 1:08

Considering all that is going on, I was very happy with tonight’s session!

Up 17% from session 1 month ago, and I was training for the TSC so this was not a completely “new stimulus” to me. I will be sure to be prompt this week in updating on my blog.

Changed up training supplements based on feedback from Dave Barr in his Anabolic Index books. Read through the first one (the manual) already and really good stuff.

Normally would start Surge/hydro pro 15 minutes before training and finish up after training (sip during training)

Changed to 40 grams hydrolyzed protein, 5 gm BCAAs, 30 gm CHO finished 15 minutes before training (in 1 L water)

During training–water only 15 minutes after training, same as above, but add 5 gm creatine (have been using creatine on training days for a long time now)

Meal 1 hr after post train shake

Also adding in more protein before bed and faster pro in the AM about 2 weeks ago dropped beta alanine to save some coin. Not sure if it has made any difference or not. Won’t know until I add it back in again towards the end/middle of June

KB session (outside, music Hatebreed)

warm up 16 X 5/5, 24 x 5/5

KB snatches, all wts in Kg

3 continuous “rounds”

I)

24 x 12/12

28 x 8/8

32 x 6/6

II

24 x 12/12

28 x 8/8

32 x 6/6

III

24 x 12/12

28 x 5/5

32 x 5/5

Last good session (last session I was sick and did not finish)

time 17:15 vol 3,656 and density 3.53 kg/sec

This session

goal was to break 17:00 and vol of 4,000 kg

actual 16:30 (cut almost 45 seconds off!!!)

vol 3,964

density 4.00 kg/sec (up about .5 kg/sec!)

First session done on 4/20 at 3.32 kg/sec density

so up about 17% in 1 month

this includes a stressful month

and dropping beta alanine!

And I was coming off the TSC, so I was training KB work in a higher

rep style, so this was not completely new

Breath hold for Sun night before training 1:08

date Tue, May 27, 2008 at 9:52 AM

Breath hold jumped up to 1:25 last night. Not sure why, but I am not going to complain. Did it the exact same way as always. The only change is that lately my whole body has been pissed off at me and my neck was bugging me so the last 2 nights (before breath hold test) I slept with the unit under my pillow. Seemed to help, esp the second night and last night. Still using recovery mode and I was able to get in 10 hours of sleep the night before the breath hold test too. Feeling much better this AM and off to present at ACSM tomorrow-Sat.

Plan to get back on track with more training once I am back. Tried to lift a few times in the past 4 days and my body was not having any of it (too much stress will do that).
