Listener Q&A:

As compiled and read by Brock, the Ben Greenfield Fitness Podcast "sidekick".

Robert says: G'day Ben I have a question for the podcast. I wanted to know what your thoughts are on the Recovery Pump compression boots, also its competitor NormaTec also as a comparison. Their claims seem to be supported and they do what they claim to do from the literature I have read. Have you tried them? What would the effect of the recovery pump be when treating peroneal synovitis? Or other tendinopathies? Would you recommend this as a recovery modality with other traditional methods such as ice baths, NSAID's etc.

Kathryn asks: I've read about recent research that found that swishing a mouthful of carbohydrate solution and then spitting it out rather than swallowing was effective in providing energy for a workout. Would this be an effective way to train in a fasted state occasionally, as Ben recommends, without the negative effects of inadequate fueling? I'm someone that doesn't tend to do well without food before my am workouts, even easy recovery type activity but I would like to try some fasted workouts occasionally.

Rob asks: How many calories are you really burning when it is 10 degrees out. If I run 13 miles and my little Garmin says I have burned 1300 calories, how much does the cold, and my body dealing with the cold, add to the equation?

Anton asks: I was wondering if there was ever a study done about inter-relationships of the amount of weight opposing muscle groups can lift. What I mean by that is: if I can bench press 225 10x should my shoulders be strong enough to handle say lateral raises with 35lbs 10x or shoulder presses with 130lbs 10x so on and so forth. Or be able to do 10 perfect form underhand pull ups (body weight of 210) and that would be equal to curling say 110lbs 10x?

Jason asks: I developed dark circles under my eyes for the first time in my life in 2004 during a time of heavy work stress and little sleep. When I was able to return to a healthier lifestyle the dark circles persisted. Only later did I make the connection that I had also started drinking coffee during that same time period. I have been able to rule out caffeine as the cause by consuming sources of caffeine while abstaining from coffee, and I don't experience the raccoon eyes. Many sources refer to allergies as a common source of dark circles, but I have not found any sources referring to coffee as a possible allergen. Any ideas if coffee could cause an allergic reaction? If so, other than staying away from coffee, are there any other related food or beverage sources that I should also avoid? Love the podcast, keep up the good work and thank you very much.

Brad asks: Always love the podcasts, and thanks for all the help you give. When I was in high school, I ran a winter race in zero degree windchill, and stupidly didn't wear gloves. I'm pretty sure I had what I now know to be second degree frostbite, but never saw a doctor about it. Now, ten years later, I still get tear-inducingly painful cold hands very easily, and have to wear gloves at pretty much all times outdoors except for the summer months. I've looked for alternative explanations, and my symptoms don't seem to match up with Raynaud's. Is this normal for a post-frostbite victim, and are there ways to reverse the effects?

~ In my response to Brad, I mention Sweet Sweat at www.sweetsweat.com

Anonymous Podcast Fan writes: Often, you cover how to increase libido. How about the other side of the coin? Are there ways to decrease libido without negatively impacting health or fitness?

Angie asks: I'm interested in knowing more about the link between hormone imbalances and fat stored in particular parts of the body. I am currently working on the reduction of fat in general through a combination of Metabolic Typing, a healthy diet and exercise however i seem to have more fat around the back of my upper arms down to my elbow compared to other parts of my body and wondered if there were any truth in some of the articles i have read regarding specific hormone imbalances causing fat to be stored in particular areas of the body and if you can give any advice whether from a hormone or exercise perspective which i can incorporate into my existing routine (heavy weights/interval training mainly). Huge thanks as always for all the amazing content you put out every day!

~ In my response to Angie, I mention estrogen dominance symptoms.

Brian wrote: A friend told me about the benefits of MATCHA TEA for weight loss and general health benefits, which peaked my interest. I brew green tea daily from loose tea leaves, and have decided to make the switch to Match Tea. I used MATCHATEASOURCE.COM to purchase the tea. The site touts the many benefits of Matcha Tea. I googled your website for matcha and there were zero hits. What do you know about the benefits of matcha and would you recommend this stuff as part of a healthy nutritional plan. I'm interested in lowering my weight and keeping it down below 200lbs. My metabolic typing diet pegs me as a mixed type. My nutrition, when I'm disciplined, is whole, natural foods, about 35% protein, 40% fats and 25% carbs. Vegetables and fish are a common dinner. My morning meal is generally steal cut oats or quinoa with Heed2 30. My daily supplements include: Enerprime, Vitamin D nano spray, Magnesium oil (Ancient Minerals), fish oil (pharmac), Oil of Oregano, and Udo's 3-6-9 Oil. Will Matcha be that kick-ass metabolism boost I'm looking for?

Adam asks: I was wondering if you could comment on the accuracy of this article about how eating more vegetables can make you look better.

Brock interjects:What would you ideally recommend as a good Half Marathon race strategy?

Have you seen the news stories about fat in fast food and the obesity epidemic? Did you see Morgan Spurlock's movie "Super Size Me"? Then guess what ... You've been fed a load of bologna. In this interview, comedian, author and speaker  Tom Naughton replies to the Super Size Me crowd by talking about how he lost weight on a fat-laden fast-food diet that included double quarter-pounders and fried chicken. He points out that nearly everything we've been told about obesity and healthy eating is wrong, and why fat is good. Here's a link to Fat Head on Hulu - or you can buy the Fat Head DVD on Amazon. --------------------------------------------------------------- Listener Q&A: Prior to asking your question, PLEASE be considerate and do a search in upper right hand corner of this website for the keywords associated with your question. 90% of the questions we receive have already been asked and answered here at BenGreenfieldFitness.com! ====================================== [contact-form-7 id="6222" title="Ask Ben"]====================================== Jeff has a call-in question about how to exhale when swimming. A listener has a call-in question about cramping in highschool football players. In my response, I recommend listening to this episode about muscle cramping with David Warden from TriTalk. Marcy asks: I just started a boot camp class 3 days a week. It's very hard. I'm not sure I've ever sweat that much. It's showing me that I'm not in as good shape as I thought. But I'm hanging in there. Would you say that that is enough resistance training. There are days that I am quite sore. Or should I add some gym days in between. Lia Marley asks: What are your thoughts on taking the supplement, DMAE? What are the benefits? I've heard that it can help with soreness and stiffness after working out. Glenn asks: Ben, i am training for my first marathon in 3 weeks. I understand some thing about the taper period, but i think i have heard you talk about the loss in fitness level during the taper. What really is going on physiologically during a proper taper? Surely it is more than "rest"? and, more importantly, what kind of GAINS are still available (strength, time to exhaustion, fat burning efficiency, etc.) to me in the next 2 weeks? Alex asks: Hi Ben. I heard you mention pro-biotics a few times but there's this supplement I was planing on buying that contains pre-biotics and they expressly mention it's not pro-biotics. What is the difference and which one is the preferred one? In my response to Alex, I mention Enerprime and Caprobiotics. Paul asks: I'm 5-foot-6 and weight about 150 pounds and I'd like to drop about five pounds by the time the next tri season rolls around. I've found it difficult to drop weight during the tri season, mostly because I don't want to short-change my nutrition while training hard. Now that the tri season is over, do you think it's a better idea to give my body a break and let it naturally pack on a couple of extra pounds over the winter (as it generally would) and then slim down to my new race weight as the next tri season approaches? Or would it be more effective to start slimming down now when I don't have the same nutritional needs as when I'm gearing up for a new season (or in the middle of the season)? Dave asks: I have been using the Restwise software that you discussed. My PO2 is usually in the 94-95% range. Recently had an unplanned ambulance ride and they measured PO2 @ 93. They were very surprised that it was that low. What do the numbers mean and is there an effective way to increase them. The EMT, knowing that I am a competitive athlete, thought it should be around 98%. In my response to Dave, I mention "Floradix" and also this episode with Restwise. -------------------------------------------- Remember, if you have any trouble listening, downloading, or transferring to your mp3 player just e-mail ben@bengreenfieldfitness.com And don't forget to leave the podcast a ranking in iTunes - it only takes 2 minutes of your time and helps grow our healthy community!
