🍷I had not heard of Nrf2, so that was interesting. My wife finished NYC in 3:59 in a textbook even split race. Not bad for a first marathon. It shows what five months of consistent training will accomplish. She didn't miss a single run in that time. I'm trying to urge her to consider shaving 10+ minutes for a BQ.
Wow! Big congrats to her on both her brilliant finish AND her superb training! I don't think she'll have much trouble running a BQ. There is a lot of room to improve after a first marathon!
Very interesting! As soon as you mentioned heat training, I thought of what you said very soon after, that without a doubt you're getting lots of it by running where you live. David Roche has been a big advocate of using heat lately, both with a hot tub and by doing treadmill runs in heavy clothes in his case; and it's hard to argue with his results this fall, now a career 2-for-2 in 100 mile ultras. For that matter, ultramarathons seem like they would be an extreme stress, apart from what most of us experience in daily running. Anyway, I'm not a nut for insanely spicy food in the way that some folks are, but I do enjoy eating hot stuff on occasion and it's nice to have a justification for that now.🍷
Mmmm...pepper,broccoli and green tea smoothie. 🍷 I think its also important that when you said "I haven't had a bath in 30 yrs" you should point out you have have showered to avoid people getting the wrong idea.😅
Nice to see a scientific research and findings style video Matt B! Really interesting findings. Goes to show nutrition and recovery are equally important as the running itself. For those doing baths, try adding epsom salts, good for muscle recovery 🤙🏽
Good idea with adding epsom salts, although i'm skeptical about their efficacy. It seems to me that sitting in a hot bath would sooth sore muscles even without epsom salts. But there could be something to the magnesium being absorbed through the skin. I guess I should just give it a try myself.
🍷I didn't know about NRF2. Apparently Sulforaphane is a potent activator for it. "It is a chemical that is made when chewing cruciferous vegetables such as broccoli, cauliflower, and broccoli sprouts" says Google. Luckily I like veggies including those. 😊
@@its_Matt_B_ I am not a medical professional so I cannot say with confidence if the supplement is safe or not. Still, according to my brief research it is generally well behaved, but it might have some interactions with other medication that metabolizes in the liver and could also could interfere with Thyroid function. I guess it really depends on the dose, as the daily amount taken through vegetables is probably not as concentrated as a pill. Who knows, it could be more useful than beet juice or tart cherry or those extremely high priced green powders that everyone seems to be promoting 🤷♂

🍷 I want to try this broccoli, green tea, pepper smoothie. 😂 Glad to have yet another reason to run! Thanks Matt!
Better you than me, although i'm eager to hear your thoughts on that "delicious" smoothie!🤣

It's a good thing heat training has some extra benefit, because it's generally a miserable affair.
Well Dear Matt,I'm really admiring your astonishing brilliant experience,example and knowledge in running,healthcare and life.Thanks a lot,as usual.
Thank YOU for watching, Alain! I appreciate you taking the time to watch my vids!

🤣 Can you be sure people are getting the wrong idea? Perhaps the people getting the wrong idea are those assuming I've showered? 🚿🧼

@@joshuaanderson4285 Cheers, Joshua! Thanks for watching! 👊🏽
After my long run the other day, my whole left side hurt. I'm all right now. 🍷
Wow! Any idea what caused it? Glad you're ok! Thanks for the🍷!
@@its_Matt_B_ Matt, you usually catch my puns.😆
@@MyFatAdaptedLife OMG! It took me re-reading it this time before I got it. I'm a little slow this morning, but I appreciate the joke even more now! 🤣
@@its_Matt_B_ Wait until you're my age.

Yep! This works every time!

I wonder if the Sulforaphane supplement is as good? Obviously not, but it's always fun to think we can get magic results from a pill.
