Gain without pain: beyond sport effortless exercise solutions

Abstract

Ageing is associated with decreased metabolism, increased toxicity, decreased skeletal muscle mass (SMM) and increased visceral fat deposits that compromise the normal functioning of vital organs such as the liver, pancreas and intestines, increasing the risk of a number of health problems, including type 2 diabetes, coronary heart disease, hypertension and non-alcoholic fatty liver. Visceral adipose tissue holds large amounts of toxins that alter thyroid hormone metabolism, lowering resting metabolic rate (RMR). Strenuous physical exercise can reach these deeper visceral adipose tissue layers. However, excessive exercise is necessary to reduce visceral adipose tissue elevates cortisol while decreasing testosterone. The hormonal imbalance resulting from this inverse cortisol/testosterone relationship ultimately leads to weight gain, despite all the efforts invested in physical activity. On the other hand, lack of exercise allows for accumulation of toxicity and increased vulnerability to chronic physical disorders. Energy-based technologies report successful results in reducing subcutaneous fat layers; however, data is not currently available about methods that can reduce deeper visceral adipose tissue and relieve the system from visceral fat cells stuffed with excess triglycerides. In this study, we examined hormone and cholesterol fluctuations in the blood tests of eight subjects undergoing six 45 minutes of effortless exercise sessions with a novel London University invention. We also explored changes in their visceral adipose tissue, overall body fat mass, SMM, basic metabolic rate (BMR), waist and abdomen reduction in centimetres (cm) and overall weight loss in kilograms (kg). Subjects' results revealed a statistically significant increase in triiodothyronine (Free T3), accompanied by a significant decrease in the very low-density lipoprotein (VLDL) and triglycerides. Cortisol did not show statistically significant fluctuations. There was a statistically significant decrease in visceral adipose tissue and overall body fat mass and a statistically significant increase in SMM. Waist and abdomen cm loss, and weight loss in kgs were statistically significant, demonstrating a substantial decrease in cm and kgs in all subjects that persisted a week after the last treatment. Results of this study supported the hypothesis that this method of effortless exercise can reduce both overall body fat mass, visceral adipose tissue and VLDL, while increasing SMM and the metabolic hormone free T3, without the aid of diet or change in lifestyle.
