Hey guys Alex here, so I'm back from my epic Finland trip to Helsinki. Huge trip ten
days away I think it was. Going over was like 35 hours of traveling, coming back I
was through the North so it was four flights - an extra flight. 44 hours of
traveling. Perfect chance to test this out the Humancharger. This is
the Oura Ring app so this is before I left. Right look at these sleep scores
91, 85, 88 It's reading the score is based on ...
HRV, heart rate or sleep you know activity movies etc. Already in this course
ninety-four percent eighty seven eighty eighty five. The reason I'm showing you
this is I was - I am healthy I don't stress the body too much
I sleep great. So this is designed to help the body when we
don't have perfect sleep we don't have bright light. When we are traveling.
I've realized that this actually is a good product - amazing product. Because it can
help you get the things that I'm getting here in a normal normal life. So in
Helsinki for instance, it was so dark right and then the Sun would come up
like hardly come up would be cloudy so it's not a very bright day. There's just
not much Sun around. So using this I could mimic the Sun without being
outside. In previous trips before I've had this
device even despite the bad sleep when I got to the destination I'd be exhausted,
but you'll go to bed and you just be like you know your mind was racing. I
just--can sleep. And so, it was funny because I went to bed tired or exhausted
thinking I really hope I get to sleep, and I did. Like my sleep latency time and
the Oura app was tiny was minuscule. What didn't happen though it was I didn't
stay asleep for an extended period. So I was waking about six hours later at
about 5 o'clock. Coming home I alerted my flight into TripIt. It was an app
I've seat up the other day. Before I left. Now it's really cool I should have done
it a few days before I left because what it does is it pulls all the data and
looks where you're going and the time-zones
differences. And then tell you when you should be using the app and everything.
Prior to going. And then it's just giving you these reminders like when to use the
the device. See those little sunlight graphs there. And then if you turn on
notifications I'd just pop up it's Humancharger time. The science behind it is
really solid, so I'm gonna do a blog article looking at some of that science.
While I was in Finland as well I spoke to some very smart people not related to
the Balki company or the Humancharger company and they were saying oh that's a
really good product like that the science behind is solid, like that a lot
of the locals use it. So that was kind of reassuring. Learning that was good my
personal experiences now - I've just share them with you. If you have any questions let me
know.
So I want to show you a few of things I brought back from Finland.
Some of these are health-related some of them are just things I've brought back. When I
had the sauna session with Tamer I had an organic bill green drink juice and it
was really good. I've got some dried ones and some powder. I bought back some
reindeer snack sticks, some local chocolate. I got gifted this I hope I can
say this right Kuksa cup. I hope I said that right. So this is a
traditional cup used in Finland. It's got a little bit of a reindeer bone - I think
it is - up top there. Thanks to the Oura guys, it's a very nice gift. I got some sweets
and candles for my mom, a can of reindeer meat. So I brought that back for
the family. We can we can share it Christmas Day. Definitely not
health-related but some vodka. I had that for dinner one
night when I was in Oulu. And they said these are cloud berries. So I never heard of
them before. Some gin - this is like
the best gin in the world. I'm not much of a gin drinker - but
figured I'd get a for our wedding day.
Got "Finland in a box" - which is for give this to my family .Giving it was the
a hundred years anniversary they had lots of uh lots a little goodies and wot not.
And this actually has some some neat stuff in there.
So that'd be a good little gift. And then this thing I got - that's my favorite
and this is definitely not help related. And I'llt probably gonna lose a few
vegetarian or vegan followers. It's my reindeer skin and I got it through
the customs. I was so happy it's so nice it's like so thick there. Yeah so I
love like hides and skins and stuff. So that was some of my treasures. If
you're watching this on youtube hit subscribe because I do a ton of reviews,
check my blog if you haven't - my #Authentic Alex blog - vlog and you can see
more about my life and you can even see I'm using this on a day to day life-
Follow me on Instagram @alexfergus_coach - I do a lot of little
stories, inside since my day as well and that's all.
So I just got a parcel from
Perfect Keto. So for those of you that don't know anything about ketosis - I've got two
articles on ketosis one of them's called: Everything you Need to know about
ketosis. And it's rather in-depth so check that out at alexfergus.com.
Yeah I mean personally I don't eat it ketogenic diet and I don't recommend
it on a long term point of view. I think it can do a lot of damage. But saying
that once a week I fast I do it 24-hour fast usually every Sunday. Not every
week but try bringing in now and there. On that day I will take some ketones.
So this is what I take this is just exhaustion is ketones peaches and cream
flavor better hydroxy butyrate. Ketones in there a little bit of
magnesium and calcium. So again I'm not into ketosis - I don't take this every day. I
just take it when I'm fasting is a bit of it energy pick me up. And in this this
is another perfect keto supplement this is the pre-workout supplement. I really
like this and this is something that I do take
not every day but every time I train. I think is a great performance aid so it
makes sense it's in there. But sometimes I train quite late in the day like six
seven o'clock at night. Which isn't great I mean I shouldn't be training that
late. So it does impact my sleep. So it is the green tea it is derived from
green tea the caffeine in here. So it's not a super potion and it is only fifty
milligrams which is probably about half a cup of coffee.
I'll only take this one training you know three or four o'clock but much
later than that I might take a half scoop I'll be quite careful with it. I'll
put some links and stuff in the notes below so you can check out all these and
do all that fun sort of stuff if you want to look into it.
Rebecca's gotta make the dinner with the zucchini noodles. She has already started.
And I'm gonna make my ginger beer.
Looks good huh. Zucchini noodles, pesto, the chicken, ginger beer, Rebecca's
organic wine, extra lemon and salt. Thank You Rebecca.
So today's Sunday I wanna clock today we're going to look at another property
up in. It looks like a pretty nice property in a nice house but it's a
little bit out of our budget so hard to get too excited about it. Anyway that's
us for the day.
So we just remembered the Sunday morning markets are on- I'm
gonna pump down here first.
This is upstairs looking at the property.
There's definitely lots of space. Lots of car space -t there's two double
garages on the main house and then you have this shed here which is huge. It'l be a
good spot for a gym. And then there's a little shed down here. Oh this would be those sheep sheep shead
Just got home from our little routing and of course it's beautiful day and the sun's
out here so so much for our swim. But regarding the property it's probably
probably not quite us. Rebbeca didn't like a few things about it and yeah the
price wasn't quite what we're after as well. So anyway we will continue our
search and continue waiting until we find the right one.
Alex here. So today
I'm going to do another quick workout. I'm gonna do another neuro mass workout.
Which we do time on detention, explosive and then isometric hold. I'm gonna do a
chest, back, leg and then maybe some hamstrings. That's it - it's literally
gonna be 20 minute workout and I'll just get into it.
Now for the fun part - the legs.
I'm definitely out of shape. It should be a lot of benefits just from that one session. Even
if you're trying I'm not trying to do a body builder. So I like to do these.
Let me know what you think of it. Give me a thumbs up if you enjoyed it.
We're finally getting some nice day there in New Zealand so I'm reading outside again.
This week's book is Built to Sell by John "I'm not gonna say the last name" Warrillow.
This is another business book. I mean I
really like it because it's not like it typical textbook or you're a how-to book.
It's actually written like a novel it's not full of facts and notes - it's a story
and of course people humans remember stories.
So 2018 is gonna be all
about simplifying my work, life, my businesses, getting rid of some projects
I have on the side, outsourcing, delegating and selling.
Selling businesses. It's just a good book for anyone who wants to get
into business because the story is something you'll remember for a long
time and they'll be a lot you'll take away from it. I highly recommend
that if you're in the business space and if anyone is interested in buying some
businesses make sure you reach out to me.
All right guys I just got here and heard
the doorbell ring and I got parcel if it's what I think it is. It's a bunch of
red lights! I've realized that you can actually make these or give them source
to yourself at a pretty reasonable price.
So we've got the device 2 4 6 8 10 12 lights. Gonna turn it on.
Three of them are um IR and then the remaining nine right. So the
reason I got this even I've got my full Joovv panel is that I can do other areas of
my body while I'm doing the Joovv panel. So now I can drop the panel down and
just do you know my body and my balls with the panel and then use this for one
side of my mouth the other side. Which is pretty cool huh.
And this was pretty cheap but I did have to buy ten of them.
I got a few plp old friends that wanted them, I'll use some as gifts because
we're coming into Christmas season and I'll use one as well. But you know what?
Here's what I'm gonna do I'm gonna give one of these away to anyone you know in
the world wherever you are. All you need to do is share this video,
this vlog either on YouTube or share the YouTube listing or the the link on my
site alexfergus.com. Share this on Facebook and use the hashtag #authenticalex
- all right the name my blog. Just share that I'll randomly pick one person
and I'll send you one of these lights and if you didn't have no idea what this
lies about what are those I'll include a link to the red light
article and the show resources for this week's episode. Go do that before the end
of the year I'll randomly pick a winner and I could be sending you one of these.
So today's a big day! So why is it a big day? It's a haircut day.
Today Star Wars come out.
Rebecca and I go out for a meal and then we'll go
back to the movie. So that's tonight! I'd love to know who's
got another buyer X slash now all those fans up here and just just comment in the
comment box if you are and we can like virtual high five each other.
Anyway I'm out to see Star Wars - by
Okay so every week I make sure they have some
liver - some couple of a cows liver, grassfed. And I also recommend it to my clients
on the hormone reset program. They have liver as well. Unfortunately I don't
really like the taste of liver. I've tried all sorts of tricks and um I just
really struggle with it. So what I do is I buy this powder. I'll put a link to it in
the show notes or YouTube notes. I'm gonna show you how I do it because it
makes getting your weekly liver hit so much easier.
Table spoon, I hope I've done this right.
And ad to it some water but only a little bit of water. The idea is you want to
make a paste you can add a flavor masker. All right so, yeah I've got hot cherry
which is quite bitter. I've also got this peppermint drops. SO I'll use this cherry here
yet which is good for sleep - melatonin. Steer and then if you're really
not a fan of it get another glass of water have that as a chaser.
That's it there's my liver hit for the week. Try it at home and let me know
how you get on.
