hey guys what’s up it’s michelle here
i’m going to share with you how this
cool gadget lumen is helping me master
my metabolism by giving me instant
feedback on how to better fuel my body
so i have more energy during my workouts
did you laugh a little bit when i said i
need more energy because i hear from you
guys you’re like michelle you have so
much energy but i’m telling you i am
just like you there are days when i feel
like i have energy through the roof and
then there’s days when i’m feeling like
man i really don’t want to work out so
here’s what i’m gonna share with you how
this little gadget this lumen is helping
me out so i’ve been using the product
for about four weeks now
and i’ve really actually just learned
more how to use it so
it’s like what they say the more you use
it the better it understands you and it
gives you the feedback that you need
specifically for your goals so my goal
is to not lose muscle mass but actually
gain muscle mass as i age because i’m
over 40 and usually at this stage we
lose that muscle mass
so i tend to use this more so pre and
post workouts i also do use it first
thing in the morning so that i know
what fuel i’m using and the fuel would
be either fats carbs or it could be
between them both of them now the goal
for me is that i want to be waking up in
the morning fasted in fat burning so
that i know that if i’m going to do a
workout so now it depends on what
workout i’m going to do if i’m going to
do a high intensity workout or heavy
weights
i want to have my number up so i’ll blow
into this
and i’ll give me a measurement and if
i’m a one or two
i need to fuel up that’s gonna tell me
hey you’re gonna do an intense workout
get some fuel in your system now if i
start my day off and i’m already at a
four or five and i’m using carbs
and i’m going to do these workouts then
it’s going to tell me i’m a-okay that
you have the energy to do that workout
now if i’m going to do the reverse if
i’m going to do a less impact workout
say like a bar
or a pilates workout i i’m okay to be in
a fasted state and do that workout so
let me show you how to work this cool
little gadget i also want to share with
you that this is the first of its kind
to be out in the market to give you that
instant feedback on what fuel source
that you are using
i’m going to show you how to use the
lumen take the cap off
listen to that cool magnetic cap
you do want to make sure that you have
the app on your phone let me tell you
what super easy to set up i was up and
running within minutes of getting this
in the mail
i’m gonna turn it on
so i’ve already done my morning breath i
did mine before the workout after i
actually did another one prior to eating
i’m just gonna do a random so it’ll ask
you
at what time of the day you want to do
your measurement i’m going to do a
custom check in here
and this is what i really like you have
to sit and relax
how many times do you do that during the
day
inhale deeply through your lumen
hold your breath
exhale in three
two
one
did you do a nice exhale too do you feel
more relaxed i sure do
let’s see where i am
i am in you’re burning both carbs and
fat so that’s great middle of the day
i’ve eaten i actually ate carbs so my
body is using the right fuel source
what i really love about this is that i
can customize what my goals are
and my workouts and that’s going to
adjust how many carbs and how much
protein what we call the macros that my
body needs for the fuel and to reach the
goal that i have so if you have weight
loss goal you would put that in there
and then if you’re doing any kind of
workouts input that information the more
that you use it and the more information
that you share with lumen it’s going to
give you a better understanding of the
nutrition that your body is going to
need to get to that goal so for me i’m
going to continue to keep using the
lumen and check in every morning they
say that that is the most important one
it lets you know what fuel system that
you’re using if you do intermittent
fasting this is going to tell you if
that window like that 12 hour window or
maybe you need longer is working for
your fast because everybody is different
i like to use this pre and post workout
so that i know what i need to fuel my
body because there are days when i do
need more energy and this is going to
help me have that better understanding
it’s going to really hack my metabolism
it’s using science at its finest at your
fingertips and when you have metabolic
flexibility
that is when you are your healthiest
your immune system is strong and you
thrive make sure to check out the
description box below there is
information there on how you can get 40
off the lumen if you enjoyed this video

i will see you at the next workout
