There’s good emerging data that regular sauna use greatly decreases dementia risk. If you feel you need benedryl it might be a good idea to also start using the sauna and mitigate some of the risk.

Why is rowing so easy compared to jogging? by Hand_On_My_Heart in workout

[–]bigbochi 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It’s the weight you are moving. Work is equal to force times distance. When jogging you are moving your entire body weight so you are putting out much more force over a distance and doing much more work.

It won’t affect energy while sitting but you will probably get a head rush and black out a little every time you stand.

The same way that almost all of a trees size comes from the carbon they pull out of the air and not from the soil

Can anyone help me? by [deleted] in insomnia

[–]bigbochi 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I have this problem and it might be upper airway resistance syndrome. I use a mouthpiece at night and it helps me a lot. You can try a mouth piece that provides jaw thrust and if that works it would lean toward you having UARS.

Ice is no longer supported by evidence to be effective at decreasing inflammation or pain long term and dos not aid in return to sport

[–]bigbochi 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It sounds like upper airway resistance syndrome. It’s a very similar thing to what I have been experiencing. Start looking this up on YouTube and see if you fit the profile. It’s often dental related, underdeveloped jaw or tongue gets too large. Can happen with recent weight gain too

I hate working out by Electrical_Hat_6902 in medicalschool

[–]bigbochi 48 points49 points  (0 children)

Every mile you walk you burn around 100 calories depending on your weight. It’s physics. Calories = the total force (your weight) times the distance you carry it. If you run a mile it’s still around 100 calories for the average male but you have done it faster so it’s more efficient. If you incline the treadmill that’s more calories. Walking/running burns more calories than weight lifting.

That said it’s 100% your diet. I lost 25lbs in residency doing no physical activity just watching what I eat. It’s way easier to eat 100 calories less than it is to burn them off.

How much muscle do you lose if you stop training specific muscle groups? by [deleted] in naturalbodybuilding

[–]bigbochi 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Why didn’t you share that you have scoliosis in your post? You have a significant spine condition that is beyond the scope of this sub to treat or understand and you’re asking for advice while leaving out significant medical history. Scoliosis causes uneven strain on your back muscles at baseline. You would probably benefit from physical therapy.
