C.R.U.S.H. YOUR MOUNTAIN: HEALTH-Best exercises to reduce blood sugar spike after meals

Welcome to C.R.U.S.H. Your Mountain Health with your host, certified health and life coach Henry Gaskins. In this episode, Henry reveals one of the most overlooked and underutilized tools in metabolic health — the soleus muscle — and builds a complete, science-backed, three-phase blood sugar protocol around it. What you will learn in this episode: * Why the soleus muscle — just 1% of your body weight — can double your body's carbohydrate-burning rate (Hamilton et al., iScience, 2022) * Why the Soleus Pushup must always be performed seated and never standing — and why that distinction is the entire mechanism * How the Farmer's Walk drains blood glucose through total-body systemic recruitment while simultaneously pre-activating the soleus * Why post-exercise cortisol triggers gluconeogenesis — and how breathwork through the vagus nerve shuts it down completely * The complete round-by-round protocol with exact reps, rest periods, timing, and positions * How to distribute Soleus Pushups throughout your day for continuous blood sugar management Research cited in this episode: Hamilton et al., iScience 2022 | Leong et al., Clinical Interventions in Aging 2019 | Sowmya & Shashikala, Journal of Clinical and Diagnostic Research 2015 | Ma et al., Frontiers in Psychology 2017 📥 Download your FREE C.R.U.S.H.
