PHTHALATES!
_
The PLASTIC ADDITIVE ESTROGENTIC
_
Main Exposure is through plastics and personal care products.
_
Your personal care products may contain PHTHALATES which are chemicals found in plastics and personal skin care products proven to be feminizing males by blocking testosterone production.
_
Just ready the label & look for PHTHALATE free.
_
DID YOU KNOW that Phthalates are found in all personal skin care products unless noted on the label by the manufacturer?
_
Personally, I keep with using @brooklyngrooming @herbancowboyofficial & @brickellproducts
_
These 3 brands keep it real and keep it clean!
_
Europe has gone ahead & banned phthalate use. USA continues to ignore them and use them widely –> this comes from ESTROGENERATION.
_
Keep tuned into my Instagram account for the next 2 days as I outline the top 10 estrogenics we tend to be exposed to & can work to control our exposure.

PARABENS!
_
The FRAGRANCE ESTROGENTIC
_
Main Exposure is through those wonderful fragrances you’re sniffing.
_
This one is found in most men’s cologne, perfumes, & most laundry detergent fragrances.
_
Just ready the label & look for PARABEN free.
_
Personally, I keep with using @brooklyngrooming @herbancowboyofficial & @brickellproducts
_
These 3 brands keep it real and keep it clean!
_
Unfortunately, you cannot completely avoid this one. It seems to be in everything these days.
_
Good thing is that the research shows it to be lower on the list of estrogenics. Just do your best to read labels and limit exposure.
_
Many times, we are breathing these in without even knowing it!
_
Europe has gone ahead an banned several parabens for use in cosmetics. USA continues to ignore them and use them widely.–> this comes from ESTROGENERATION.
_
We cannot avoid all estrogenics but we can avoid some. Avoiding PARABENS will help significantly.

RED DYE #3 & #40!
_
The ARTIFICIAL RED FOOD COLOR ESTROGENTIC
_
Main Exposure is through pretty much any fake color RED.
_
This one is found in most foods with the color red! If your food is RED, chances are it is red because of RED DYE NUMBER 3 or RED DYE NUMBER 40
_
Just ready the label & look to avoid RED #3 or RED #40.
_
I feel like you can taste this immediately when it is added to a food. It has such a strong chemical taste. You will notice it if you eat really clean.
_
Most recently I bought some cheese, you know those funky little red #babyBel cheeses. Here the RED DYE #40 comes from the wax that surrounds & stores the cheese. It was immediate when I took the first bite. A strong chemical taste.
_
Also, look at many of the hard candies & cough drops. I see RED #40 in a very popular cough drop in one of the areas I provide treatment & rehabilitation. The employees can regularly pop 5/6 of these per show; that could be 10 exposures per night with a total of 50 over the course of the week! With 480 shows…you do the math on the levels of RED DYE! Yowsas!
_
Side note… RED #3 & 40 are legal for use in Europe USA. In Europe RED 40 must have the label “may have adverse effect on activity and attention in children” No warning label in the USA!–> this comes from ESTROGENERATION.
_
We cannot avoid all estrogenics but we can avoid some. Avoiding RED DYE 3 and 40 will help significantly.
_

WATCH THOSE SOAPS!
_
TRICLOSAN AND APEs = The SOAP ESTROGENIC
_
Main Exposure is through soaps.
_
This one is found in most soaps and the main use is to cause a nice soapy suds!
_
Just ready the label and look to avoid APEs.
_
Guys, I personally use products by @herbancowboyofficial and @brickellmensproducts
_
Herban Cowboy has a great bar soap I personally like the Dusk scent and so does the wife!
_
With Brickell I use the charcoal face wash, face lotion & body lotion. Lotion and personal skin products will be a topic later this week also!
_
Side note… all APEs are banned for use in Europe. Meanwhile its open to any and all use in the USA!–> this comes from ESTROGENERATION.
_

ROUND-UP! ROUND IT UP…GET IT GONE!
_
ATRAZINE = The HERBICIDE ESTROGENIC
_
Main Exposure is through herbicides and pesticides.
_
This one is short and sweet. Avoid most, if not all herbicides!
_
Products like #ROUNDUP Don’t get around, don’t ingest it, don’t let it touch your skin…you may melt away like the wicked witch of the west! Ha. Not really. Just do your best to avoid many if not all herbicides and pesticides.
_
Make sure you wash your fruits & veggies well. Or try to purchase some that are organic. Especially the ones you eat whole. Like apples, grapes, broccoli! Nom Nom Broccoli! You get the point!
_
Side note…all ATRAZINE is banned for use in Europe. Meanwhile its open to any and all use in the USA!–>this comes from ESTROGENERATION.

FUNGUS!!
_
Mycoestrogens = The Fungus ESTROGENIC
_
Main Exposure is through cheap grains, corn, peanuts, chocolate,& coffee
_
Mycoestrogens also known as zearalenone(ZEA). Mycoestrogen is the fungus estrogenic & tends to be found in grains. But also found in Corn, Peanuts, Chocolate, & Coffee. You can avoid this by investing in better quality products & make sure they have not been sitting in the store for long.
_
Products made cheap and in huge amounts have a bigger chance of sitting in dark/damp environments. This leads to the growth of the estrogenic fungus! You could also work on limiting your consumption of these foods.
_
I tend to not eat corn or wheat products. When it comes to peanuts, I try to buy high quality organic peanut butter. The same goes for chocolate & coffee. My wife @ironbodybyartemis likes to buy small batch coffee. It’s wonderful! Right now, we are really digging @bluebeardcoffee
_
Side note… zearalenone(ZEA) is monitored and controlled in other countries. For example, Europe’s allowable range of ZEA is between 20-350um/kg. In total 16 countries worldwide have ZEA limits.–> this comes from ESTROGENERATION. In the USA it is not monitored and controlled!
_
We cannot avoid all estrogenics but we can avoid some. Avoiding cheap forms of grains, corn, peanuts, chocolate & coffee will help significantly.
_

ALL THINGS SOY & FLAX
_
Phytoestrogens = The PLANT ESTROGENICS
_
Avoid SOY, FLAX, Lavender, and Cannabis
_
Soy is seeming to be in everything these days. Soy is a top estrogenic and we should avoid all forms of it. You can find this in so many places, because soy is cheap. Its produced in abundance & sold cheap. So its used as an additive in so many things. Seriously, take a look at the label of lots of proceeded foods. You will find SOY in many of them. Especially so called “healthy” foods.
_
FLAX. These days flax seems to be in everything. Flax is like the next god sent health food. It seems to be in any and every food these days. This is turning into the next soy. It seems like food manufactures are throwing this in just to call it healthy. Well, gentlemen, avoid it. No forms are good. Just cut it out!
_
LAVENDER. This is mainly found in our soaps and through oil diffusers. Its pretty easy to avoid, just read the labels and stop using it! Easy!
_
CANNABIS. Eating and smoking this tends to be the main exposure. So just eliminate this use of cannabis & you are all good!
_
So far it seems that the use of CBD oil is safe, and CBD is NOT estrogenic. So, if your using cannabis as a pain reliever or anti-inflammatory substance, then it looks to be cool. I personally use CBD and feel it works great if used as recommended. Also, make sure you are getting the real thing.
_
In men, this will help to optimize testosterone in your system. Optimization of T means, better
_
We cannot avoid all estrogenics but we can avoid some. And avoiding this top 10 will help significantly.
_
So, I welcome you to keep tuned into my Instagram account for the next 10 days as I outline the top 10 estrogenics we tend to be most exposed to and can work to decrease our exposure.

FAT, SICK, & INFERTILE
_
OK! Now that I have your attention…
_
Have you ever heard of ESTROGENTICS?
_
A good definition from @anthonygjay book ESTROGENERATION is something that binds or “sticks” to estrogen receptors in the body.
_
Why are ESTROGENTICS bad for us. Well to keep it simple. Over exposure to estrogenics leads to obesity, sickness & infertility.
_
Over the course of the next 10 days I will be outlining Dr. Anthony Jay’s top 10 list of estrogentics to avoid. Avoiding the list of top 10 will help to decrease exposure to false estrogen hormone stimulators & will help you & your family to lead healthier lives!
_
In men, this will help to optimize testosterone in your system. This is very important!
_
We cannot avoid all estrogenics but we can avoid some. Avoiding these top 10 will help significantly.

BOOM BOOM BOOM, LET ME HEAR YOU SAY WAY-Oooo, WAY-Oooo
_
WAY-Ooo to some serious GLTUES & TOP 4 reasons to do your damn GLUTE BRIDGES!
_
Building your glutes does not have to be a choir. I recommend to all my peps to get your glute bridges done every day. Either with bodyweight or loaded. But do your damn GLUTE BRIDGES!
_
Most people want a great set of glutes, but they don’t do the “THING” or “THINGS” to get the great glutes. Put in time & work and those GLTUES will grow…WAY-Ooo!
_
Here are my TOP 4 reasons to do your Glute Bridges. Why 4…ahh why not! That doesn’t matter…Just start doing them!
_
- Develop great Glutes & All-Round(see what I did there….ROUND) Hip Strength
_
This kinda explains itself!
_
- Develop a great Hip to Rib Connection.
I tend to call this “torso core”. Torso core is the whole core: front, lateral, and back. Developing a reactive, stable, & strong torso is huge and leads to more upper & lower body strength, plus helping to develop the musculature that will be exposed when reducing body fat. BONUS: The better you have control over your rib to hip connection the better you are at reducing the risk of injury…WAY-Ooo
_
- Reduce Low Back Pain and Risk of Developing Low Back Pain.
_
- Develop a great ASS Shelf.
Seriously to all my peps, this mean no plumbers ass. As guys get older the glutes begin to shrink. I cannot begin to tell you how many of my clients tell me they used to get compliments on their butt from their significant other. As years go by…those compliments fade, and the plumbers butt begins to expose the CRACK!
_
Give this a try and let me know how it goes. Small changes to fundamental movements are great to help progress your training.
_
_
Seriously, start to take some time and begin to do your GLUTE BRIDGES. If you feel lost on how and when…well, I can help. Hit up my application in my HERE & lets start working together.

SHOULDERS SHOULDERS SHOULDERS and of course REAR FOOT ELEVATED SPLIT SQUAT
_
Crush the SHOULDERS & also train your Torso, Hip, back & shoulders in a fundamental pattern!
_
Lateral and Front Raises are great to develop the shoulders…& of course why wouldn’t I add in a RFESS!
_
Grab a light to moderate load and work on lateral and front raises with the rear foot elevated split squat.
_
These simple 2 moves will give you some great definition to the shoulders. Plus, I get to practice an isometric hold at the bottom of the RFESS while doing the shoulder raises!
_
At the Bottom of the RFESS I am holding my core tight and also my back-leg glute. Essentially doing an isometric of the torso and legs while I hit my shoulders!
_
Isometric are a great way to practice and master areas of difficult movements. The bottom of the RFESS can be very challenging with a heavy load. Here I am hitting a solid pause with an isometric to help me drive out of the bottom.
_
It is becoming more and more apparent I am performing a shit ton of RFESS every week. These minor variations to a fundamental move allow for progress, little by little each week!
_
Give this a try and let me know how it goes. Small changes to fundamental movements are great to help progress your training.
