Deep dives
Housing Market and Future Cities
There are concerns about the housing market with investors pulling money out of the market. The future of cities is also being discussed, with proposals for densely populated cities and communal living. The housing market may undergo significant changes, and the concept of owning a home may no longer be a part of the American dream.
Beta Blockers for Recovery
Beta blockers have been shown to improve recovery in various studies. These medications, which are not specifically intended for recovery, may help by blunting the sympathetic stress response. However, it is important to note that using beta blockers for recovery should only be done under medical supervision.
DNP for Fat Loss
DNP is a controversial substance that some bodybuilders use for fat loss. It is connected to dynamite and has significant risks and side effects. It is not recommended for use, and experimenting with it can be extremely dangerous.
Future of Cities
There are proposals for future cities that focus on dense, communal living with small living quarters and shared amenities. Some of these plans are aimed at creating eco-friendly environments and reducing carbon footprints. However, there are concerns about the practicality and potential drawbacks of such cities.
Barefoot Lifting and Potential Risks
The caller asks if there is a point where barefoot lifting could harmful for the ankles and feet, especially when lifting heavy weights. The hosts explain that as long as proper form and technique are followed, there is no inherent risk in lifting heavy weights barefoot. They note that injuries can occur if the weight exceeds the individual's ability to stabilize and support themselves, but this applies to any part of the body. They also highlight the importance of gradually working up to heavier weights and building strength in the feet and ankles over time.
Addressing Shoulder and Ankle Injuries
The caller also discusses previous injuries to their right foot and ankle, including a fracture and a sprain. They are concerned about the impact of these injuries on their lifting. The hosts advise reaching out to a movement specialist or physical therapist for a proper assessment, as they can offer personalized recommendations and help address underlying compensation patterns. They also suggest considering BPC 157 for healing, but emphasize that it should be used in conjunction with rehab exercises.
