Is response time faster when inhaling or when exhaling.
When Jack Feldman appeared in your podcast as guest, he said that the time for response to a stimulus is different while the person breathing is inhaling or exhaling. He did not have an answer which is the shorter response time. Would you answer that question and tell me where I can get more information or give me some keywords that would help me find the answer and more information? I'm looking for anything that would give an advantage to a person defending himself against an assault.
Sleep Therapy with Magnets
Hello, I recently listened to your podcast with Rick Rubin and Jack Kruse and was fascinated by your answer to him while talking about the effect of magnets on brain activity. Jack mentioned that he uses that type of therapy for is footballers with TBIs. After which you replied, "I do sleep with a power magnet, that's true." Or something along those lines. I was curious enough to try things so I researched and purchased the Sedona Wellness Timmy ZZZ PEMF pillow to see if it would be a new tool for sleep. https://sedonawellness.com/products/timmyzzz-pemf-pillow Could you maybe expound on the mechanisms in the brain that you and Jack were discussing in laymen terms and what made you decide to embrace magnets in your sleep strategy? Also, which product do you use or did you make something custom with your science friends? The Timmy Z pillow has four settings. What do you think of their product. If the science is solid, I feel like this could be a new product category that might help people. Apologies in advance if you have already covered this in previous AMAs. Thank you in advance for your time.
(I don’t remember if I’ve asked this question I have wanted to ask.) Does it help to curse while exhaling when making a physical attack?
When executing a sudden attack, is it really good to exhale as taught in martial arts in general? How are those benefits of exhaling at such a time affected by the variability of what is expressed with the exhalation, whether the expression is just breath, is actual audible sound, or has verbal features like meaning with a different range of intelligence (say between coarse profanity to a witty remark the brain spontaneously conjured up at the moment, to any habitual verbal expressions, or anything else you can think of? Or at least how performance of the attack is affected by two factors — whether the exhalation is accompanied by (1) cursing or is accompanied instead with a guttural sound that has no verbal meaning or any significant articulation. I want to know the many possible factors, but I believe those two factors (cursing and guttural sounds) might be the most relevant.
