Double Feature Questions from Jeanine:

I suffer from hormone imbalance. I found taking certain supplements prescribed by my naturopath and eating a balanced diet helps with managing the fatigue, appetite and discomfort. However, I find it hard during my menstrual cycle to really push myself during workouts, and to be honest I am glad if I just show up. Do you have any strategies for your female clients during this time?

In a few weeks I will undergo surgery to my sinuses. The doctors recommends not exercising until 2-3 weeks after recovery. Even after this period "excessive exercise" is to be avoided. The main goal is to keep my heart rate low to avoid an increase in swelling and potential bleeding. What is your recommendations to maintain my pre-surgery condition while slowly transitioning back to full exertion in my workouts?

Gary:

Hi Jonathan I love the show and find it very helpful in keeping me motivated and at least a little bit consistent getting to the gym. I’m not sure if you’re the right person to ask but my question is this, I wake up at a reasonable hour, but can’t seem to get out of bed in the morning how can I force myself to get out of bed?
