 ----------------------------------------------------- Listener Q&A: 

As compiled, deciphered, edited and sometimes read by Brock Skywalker Armstrong, the Podcast Sidekick and Audio Ninja. Dizziness During Exercise 

Brian asks: He gets lightheaded at the gym sometimes. Usually when he is doing weighted lunges. Is this a bad thing? Is it dangerous? He would of course rather not have it happen, but is it something to worry about?    Combining Heat Acclimation And Cold Thermogenesis 

HotandCold asks: He has seen a lot of information about becoming heat acclimated and about ice baths and cold showers but not a lot about how to prepare yourself for a race that may start off in very cold water but end with a very hot run. How can you prepare and adapt for extreme temperature fluctuation? Does training for one temperature negate training for the other?  In my response I recommend: -The latest episode of Obstacle Dominator with Matt Novakovich -Adaptogenic herb Tian Chi Can Eating Slow Increase Food Absorption? 

Laura asks: When she and her boyfriend finish a workout they both have a protein shake or a green smoothie. He downs his in 2 or 3 gulps while she sips hers for 30 minutes. She likes to think that the slower you drink it the better your body can absorb it. Is that true or should she try to chug it?    Lucid Dreaming Detox 

Ben asks: He has stopped wearing his Superhuman Encoder to bed because it gives him bad dreams. He Tweeted you about it and you mentioned something about a detox... but he hasn't been able to find any more info about it. Could you explain what might be happening and why he is getting the nightmares?  In my response I recommend: -SuperhumanEncoder.com -Earthpulse -DMT Spirit Molecule book How To Use Infrared Therapy 

Peter asks: He knows that you like to use a red light in the bedroom before you go to sleep and he understand why. He is colourblind and cannot see red. Will he still get the beneficial effects from using a red light or does it rely on you being able to see that part of the spectrum?  In my response I recommend: -DMT Infrared Therapy -Biomat
