    Should Women Do Zone 2 Training? How to Exercise for Hormonal, Metabolic & Immune Health with Paul Larsen

    Save 15% on Qualia Mind with Code ANGELA at http://www.qualialife.com/angela   Angela meets Paul Larsen, a former triathlete and expert in high-intensity interval training (HIIT) and fat metabolism, who shares his journey from competitive sports to academia, detailing his extensive research and work with Olympic programs in Australia and New Zealand. Together they examine the importance of understanding training stress versus life stress, the benefits of zone 2 training for recovery and fat metabolism, and how wearable technology can optimise training plans KEY TAKEAWAYS The heart rate zones are crucial for optimising training. Zone 2, calculated as 180 minus your age, is essential for enhancing fat metabolism and overall endurance. It's important to avoid spending too much time in Zone 3, as it can lead to increased cortisol levels and hinder fat loss. Engaging in low-intensity activities, such as walking, can significantly improve recovery, enhance fat metabolism, and support overall health. These activities help balance the nervous system and promote better sleep. HIIT involves longer intervals (2-5 minutes) that improve cardiovascular fitness and VO2 max, while SIT consists of short, maximal efforts (20-40 seconds) that recruit fast-twitch muscle fibres and enhance mitochondrial density. Both training stress and life stress impact heart rate variability and overall health. Managing life stressors is crucial for maintaining a healthy metabolic state, as high stress can lead to increased insulin levels and central adiposity. BEST MOMENTS "It's always the context over the content. Every person listening here is a little bit different."  "The heart rate variability is a surrogate of the status of the balance of the nervous system."  "If you can just get out there, get out the door, and do just what you said, you'll get quite a bit." "Zone three gets some general bad rap because it's so easy for us to kind of move into this one."

Early Warning Signs: Indicators like high blood pressure, skin tags, fatigue, and cravings may hint at underlying insulin resistance even before blood sugar levels rise. Lifestyle is Key: Adopting a low-carb, high-protein diet, engaging in strength training, walking post-meals, and managing stress and sleep can reverse insulin resistance.
