This podcast is a must-listen for any of you out there who have chronic injuries, aches and pains that just won't go away, or a plateau in your physical or athletic performance. In this April 7, 2009 free audio interview, I speak with Dr. Herb Akers, who is a Chiropractor, Nutritionist, Applied Kinesiologist and Medical Intuitive. He is the founder and developer of the Art of Matrix-ReGeneration, a healing approach that combines traditional healing with an understanding of quantum physics.

Dr. Akers believes in enhancing health and human performance through developing and expanding self-awareness, which occurs primarily through the release of physical, chemical and mental holding patterns. Fascial release, nutritional cleansing, and yoga are a few of the techniques that he uses synergistically to lay the groundwork for an understanding of what really ails the human body.

During this interview, Dr. Akers teaches:

-The amazing healing touch that he has developed since the age of 7 in New Zealand

-The one anatomical part of your body that is the key to understanding injury everywhere else

-How to use muscle feedback and biofeedback responses to diagnose functional problems

-The secrets to overcome the mind's resistance to limitations, and expand the possibilities of what you can achieve

-Why Quantum Theory plays a crucial role in the healing and performance process

-How to "listen to" the body in order to balance the mind and achieve a path of healing

-Why a simple ankle sprain could be one of the worst injuries that you will ever experience

-What the "Rules of the Matrix" are, and how they are crucial to "fight and flight" athletic performance

-How the simple act of walking could do more damage to your body than you think

-Practical ways that you can incorporate the concepts discussed into your daily routine

Listener Q&A:

Listener Steve asks: I read your latest article which emphasized leg exercises. However, are squats good for people over a certain age (ex: 40+, etc)? Is the juice worth the squeeze for us older athletes, or can we substitute another exercise in lieu of squats? In my answer, I include, in addition toSquat Video, I also introduce Steve to the One Leg Bridge Video, the One Arm Deadlift Video, the Lunge Video, and theMulti-Directional Lunge Video.

Listener Stephen asks: One of your listeners mentioned about drinking diet pop/soda and we know how bad it is for you. But, I came across a product called Zevia and wanted to know if you approved this product at all. It has Stevia as the sweetener which I've heard you promote if you need to use a sweetener. The ingredients in Zevia are: Triple Filtered Carbonated Water, Natural Erythritol, Natural GMO-Free Caramel Color, Stevia leaf, Citric Acid and natural flavors. They have a cola that has natural caffeine and a natural ginger rootbeer. Is this OK?

Listener Craig asks: I have a couple more questions. One is for a friend of mine. He’s interested in the ZMK and wanted to know if he should just take it for a month, or cycle it, or just take it as long as he wants to pay for it? Do any of these ways matter? I’m also curious about cutting. I’ve gained nearly 10 lbs since I last emailed you and want to cut a bit, but I don’t want to lose the muscle I’ve gained. I’m thinking about eating less and have read to eat 500 cals under my maintenance level. I’m also considering taking a thermogenic product like Muscletech’s Hydroxycut hardcore or millennium labs shred xs hardcore. I’ve never taken a product like either of these and was wondering if you knew about them? I want to cut the fat, without losing muscle and am not sure of the best way to do this. I’m currently on EAS creatine monohydrate, L-Glutamine, Universal Shock Therapy (an NO product), and millennium ZMK. Should I stop using creatine, the zmk, and the shock therapy if I use the thermogenic? Are any of these contradictory products that should not be taken together? I can see the individual benefits of each of these products, but I feel like there’s a lot of them and I might be over doing it a little. I am very interested in any advice you might have about a good combination of these products to attain my goal of more muscle and less fat. In my response to this question, I also mention and recommend fat-burning supplements Thermofactor and Leanfactor.
