You get this.

There's a difference between aerobic exercise and anaerobic exercise.

aerobic exercise is what we're used to i always say it's the sit-up yeah the concentric movement followed by the eccentric movement the up the down the up the down the isometric which is zona it's more like a pike yeah okay it's a holding the static resistance level for a period of time and causing the body that that temporary muscle tension held it that exact same static resistance

what Zona does is it actually kind of lets you do a plank, but it's letting you do it using grip strength rather than, you know, asking grandma to get on the floor and do a plank, right?

Yeah.

So as that happens, and the endothelium ages over time, this actually helps reverse that aging.

And it's weird how it does it.

I'd say there's two major things that contribute there.

The first one is when your body moves into that sympathetic nervous system,

It's helping you learn how to move between sympathetic and parasympathetic.

And we've talked a lot about the nervous system and how we live in this stressed out world.

Most people get stuck.

Yeah.

And they've never trained their nervous system how to calm down, which means even when they go to sleep, they're a basket case even in their sleep, right?

It's sleep quality suffers even if they actually get their eight hours.

Yeah.

What this is doing is that tension.

No one puts their body under stress intentionally without the body wanting to fight back.

So when I'm doing a contraction on my arm where I'm holding it at a static resistance, it's uncomfortable.

Yeah.
