I’ve got a grounding pad underneath me right now :D I’ve got a set! I love it and I definitely feel a lot less aches and pains, not necessarily from exercising but every day living.
I actually got into minimal running a while back and got me a pair of those toe-shoes, Vibram five-fingers I think they are called. I loved them and would love to get another pair but it is indeed like nothing else!
Sucks that you’ve got stuff going on that you think may prevent you from continuing the flesh vessel you’ve got but hopefully it’s not going to end up like that! I too had a pretty bad scare years ago where I thought I had ALS, being a guaranteed death sentence in the short term. It ended up being I had a pinched nerve in my neck but it was scary as fuck for a while. I had crazy twitching in my pec, bicep and shoulder on the left side. It was poor sleeping position at the end of the day!
Hopefully it’s something like that for you brother! Just us being doomers
Dude, thank you for this.
I read it way before I got the opportunity to respond to it. Even bought a grounding mat for my bed after reading this…also returned it but it looks like maybe I just didn’t understand it fully. I tried measuring continuity and came up with nothing, so I determined it was a fake and sent it back. …should have measured resistance instead, it probably has a high impedance path to ground so you can get the grounding effect without increasing your risk of electrocution by being directly grounded. Either way, I’m making my own now because I liked the idea so much. Also made some ground plates for my bare feet to sit on while I’m at my desk.
No guarantee that I am or am not on my way out, although I do feel much better since I’ve been making an effort to ground myself daily, so we’ll just play it by ear.
Anyway man, sorry for the super long delay, I really appreciate your comment and I hope you’re doing well!
Cheers dude no worries at all! The dude Clint Ober, who came up with the grounding protocol from what I can gather, did the same. He actually took a wire, rolled it out his window and jammed the thing a foot into the ground then put it onto his bed in a way that he would lay on top of it and that's how he came up with the original concept.
Thermal imaging is the best way to see the benefits of grounding. Taking a heat map picture of the body to see where it's warmer than others meaning it's inflamed then grounding is the best way they've been able to show the benefits.
If you want to chat on discord or something man let me know! I don't have knowledge on all the things but we've done and learned so much over the last 5-10 years and had a lot of experience with things that work versus don't I'd be more than willing to chat!
