    Hyperthermic Conditioning

    I have been looking into ways to supplement my Training with out actually "Training" if that makes sense. I'm sure many of you that are here, know that @Coach Sommer has been working closely with Tim Ferriss. Personally, I've already got my copy of Tools of Titans and going to start reading asap. Ok, so anyways, this Article on using Dry Saunas to train Hyperthermic Conditioning as a supplement to your Training regime sounds like it would be beneficial for anyone looking to improve their health/performance. Some conclusions from the Article are: 1. Enhanced endurance by increasing nutrient delivery, reducing depletion of glycogen storage and reducing core temp/heart rate during workloads. 2. Increased hypertrophy through prevention of protein degradation. Improves insulin sensitivity, causes a release in Growth Hormones and induction of heat stress proteins. 3. Positive effects on the brain by increasing the storage/release of norepinephrine, increases prolactin and brain derived neurotrophic factor and increase in dynorphin. I've just read this article so far and the video of Rhonda Perciavalle Patrick, Ph.D. "Who works with Dr. Bruce Ames of the Ames carcinogenicity test, the 23rd most-cited scientist in all fields between 1973 and 1984. Dr. Patrick also conducts clinical trials, performed aging research at Salk Institute for Biological Studies, and did graduate research at St. Jude Children’s Research Hospital, where she focused on cancer, mitochondrial metabolism, and apoptosis." Here is the link to the Article/Video http://fourhourworkweek.com/2014/04/10/saunas-hyperthermic-conditioning-2/ I am looking forward to reading the sources that she sites. I am by no means a Pro at scientific studies, but I try to seperate/find the good from bad through reports of people that have a clearer understanding of their particular field. So, in this instance Tim Ferriss -> Rhonda Patrick -> sources If there are any other Resources that others would like to share, It would be much appreciated. Would love to hear your thoughts when you have a chance, @Jeff Serven @Bryant Wilson @Sean Murphey Do you happen to know if this is something that has been used among Olympic Lifting athletes?
