Exercise

New research finds decrease in brain blood flow after stopping exercise in healthy older adults by NEWS-MEDICAL.NET

Interesting article... it should be noted that the exercisers were only doing cardiovascular/endurance training and not resistance training... they also are only "speculating" that the lower blood flow is bad. It is important to take a week of rest/recovery every so often (possibly every 12 weeks). I think the point they are making is that you can lose the effect of exercising quickly... but you can gain it back quickly too.

Diet

Nutritional Supplements

MSM or methylsulfonylmethane has been around forever... I remember selling it at GNC 20 years ago... Is the new research legit? Will it speed recovery?

Fitness Tech
