Listener Q&A:

How To Burn More Fat At Work

Katie says: She has a question on CT, HRV and standing desks. She has a standing desk on the days her HRV says she needs to recover she uses ice packs at her desk. On days where she has good HRV and a strong nervous system, she wears 30 pound weighted vest for an hour. Can she do both at the same time? Can she use ice packs for CT, and wear the weight vest while at her standing desk?

In my response, I recommend: -CoolFatBurner vest -HyperWear weighted vest -Quantlet -NatureBeat for tracking HRV -My standing workstation/treadmill workstation setup -Compex electrostimulation -FluidStance -A few other ways to increase HRV How To Fix Adrenal Fatigue

Sharon says: Her daughter, who's 17, has exercise induced headaches, and has had them since 8 or 9 years old.
