There is. And it's often said that you can mimic the effects of cardiovascular training. So in case you've had, let's just say you've sprained your ankle and instead of being completely sedentary, you can mimic the effects of cardiovascular training with these heat shock proteins, these heat shock proteins that are released when you are hot. It's basically signaling that

to your brain and your body. Guys, she's very hot right now. We need to activate certain systems to cool her down. So it does put you in a stressful situation. Remember, the word stress, you know, there's a term, you know, called allostatic load. You want to stress your body in a good way. You don't want this chronic stress. You want to stress it in a good way. And that's what heat stress does.

It literally is a stressor, but it's a good stressor. And the way that it mimics cardiovascular training is through the blood flow. Because if you are increasing your heart rate because you're getting hot, That means you're getting more blood pumping and you can actually look at your heart rate. I've measured it and I'm sitting around my zone three when I'm in there.

That's above aerobic zone, moving into threshold zone. So I'm in that zone three. So my body is pumping blood. What is that doing? That means my heart is getting worked out. left ventricular hypertrophy is going down. I'm increasing the thickness of that arterial wall because the arteries have got muscles around them. So they're squeezing together. So they're getting a workout. You're doing a lot.

And we've also got studies that show that you can also have an effect on the amyloid beta in the brain. Again, another way to just completely downregulate that system.

The most exciting part of the practice when I work with these people is doing a brain scan, which consists of an EEG and a QEEG. So we're measuring the electrical activity in the brain, but we're also time locking it, meaning that we're picking up on their processing speed, their reaction time, and their visual acuity.

We know that the eyes are just two pieces of the brain on the outside of our body. So we can do so much by understanding how well is your brain functioning from this EEG. So that's one thing that we do, and I'll go into that a bit more. The second most exciting part of it is doing a VO2 max test. Now, I love this because I truly believe that the VO2 max is...
