    How Effective Is Exercise/movement At Increasing CO2?

    When I get my blood tested my CO2 is in the 21-23 range. I'd like it to be 28-30. I've been reading that exercise can help. How effective is exercise? What types of exercise? Will movement in general help (walking)? I have a cubicle job, will switching to a standup desk help? Does keeping...

    Endurance Exercise Is Unhealthy

    As a former very avid runner, this realization, which came as a result of reading Peat was very difficult to accept.

    I am sure you everybody is familiar with Ray's writing about how bad strenuous (endurance) exercise is and what damage it does to the body through increased lipolysis, serotonin, and release of endotoxin. In fact, he talked in one of his newsletters about how ancient civilizations were very...

    Exercise Completely Destroys Me

    I decided to go for a jog 2 days ago, wow it was a big mistake. The next day massive fatigue, brain fog and a really tight chest! Is there anyway to help your body cope with the adrenaline stress response that exercise does to the body?

    Pilates, Yoga, Etc

    About 6 weeks ago I started doing a lot of yoga and have since added Pilates a few days a week. I am now sorer than I have been in years, much more sore than I was during my interval cardio/circuits phase. Is anyone else doing this type of workout? It is Peat friendly and pretty effective.

    Fit Vs Healthy

    I saw on another thread the mention of Paul Jaminet and his heart rate of 50 and thought it worthy of discussion. I know a lot of people who play sports, are in "Good shape" and have resting heart rates in the mid to low 40's (Two of them are gymnasts). Those guys consider themselves fit and...

    What About Exercise?

    Does anyone here still exercise with any degree of intensity? I know peat seems to frown on it but from the tone he writes about it sort of comes across as someone who doesn't like exercise because hes never done much of it or seen it as worthwhile / fun. I ask as I appreciate that when one is...
