Objectives: A review of energy-based technologies reveals successful results in reducing subcutaneous fat layers, however, data is not currently available for deeper visceral fat reduction. We conducted a study that focuses on deeper visceral fat deposits, and methods to reduce visceral fat while increasing skeletal muscle mass (SMM). We examined hormonal fluctuations of triiodothyronine Free T3, Testosterone, cortisol and dehydroepiandrosterone (DHEA), plus concentrations of the low-density lipoprotein (VLDL), the high-density lipoprotein (HDL) and Triglycerides.
Introduction: Aging correlates with decreased metabolism, increased toxicity, decreased skeletal muscle mass (SMM) & BMR, & increased visceral fat. Excessive exercise necessary to reduce visceral fat elevates cortisol while decreasing testosterone resulting in hormonal imbalance. The inverse cortisol/testosterone relationship leads to weight gain despite all the efforts invested in physical activity. Hepatic detoxification systems are overloaded by toxicity which disorganizes hypothalamic satiety modulation of central inhibitors & stimulators of appetite, including leptin & ghrelin triggering hunger.
Materials / method: We examined hormone & cholesterol fluctuations in the blood tests of eight subjects got six 45-minutes effortless exercise sessions with a novel London University invention designed for detox, visceral fat reduction & SMM increase. We explored changes in their visceral adipose tissue, body fat mass, SMM, BMR, cm waist/abdomen & kg reduction. Treatments were offered twice weekly, for 3 weeks.
Results: One-Tailed, t-tests for two dependent variables showed that visceral fat, body fat, cm & Kg reductions & SMM increase were all statistically significant with the exception of BMR. Blood tests yielded a statistically significant decrease of the very-low-density lipoprotein (VLDL) & Triglycerides & a significant increase in Free T3. We did not see the inverse cortisol to testosterone relationship. Cortisol fluctuations were at chance level. Waist/abdomen cm loss, & kg loss were statistically significant, demonstrating a substantial decrease in cm & kg in all subjects.
Conclusion: Effortless exercise results in visceral adipose tissue reduction, accompanied by an SMM increase without the aid of diet or change in lifestyle. We did not see the inverse cortisol/testosterone relationship, observed during strenuous exercise, despite the subjects’ reports of enhanced fitness as if they had worked out for several months. Elevated cortisol levels are related to both caloric intake & total consumption. Subjects reported reduced hunger, yet, normal appetite, possibly due to optimal cortisol levels combined with reduced toxicity that disturbs central inhibitors of appetite.
