The Hounsfield unit (HU) scale is a linear transformation of the original linear attenuation coefficient measurement into one in which the radiodensity of distilled water at standard pressure and temperature (STP) is defined as zero Hounsfield units (HU), while the radiodensity of air at STP is defined as -1000 HU.he Hounsfield scale /ËhaÊnzËfiËld/ or CT numbers, named after Sir Godfrey Newbold Hounsfield, is a quantitative scale for describing radiodensity.
Redefine Cardio â Make traditional strength training your bread and butter and end with cardio. Close out a 40-minute workout session with 5 to 10 minutes of post-workout anaerobic conditioning. For example, consider 30-second sprints on the bike followed by a minute of rest. Repeat three times and youâre done.
This is energy your muscles would have normally used for weight lifting. So, when you go to lift weights in this state, your body will utilize protein for energy instead, and the protein it will use is from your muscles. So in essence, you're defeating the purpose of weight lifting by doing it after cardio. So, if you must do them on the same day, you should do cardio after weights. For maximum benifit, have a small fast uptake protein/carb supplement between the weights and cardio and wait a few minutes before starting - it would be a good time to do some deep stretches.
