This episode:
Cody and Sascha talk about "Hacking your lifestyle", using exercise and better eating to help balance out nights of boozing it up and other holiday activities.
Cody is starting to notice he's loosing some weight, but hasn't quite been able to stop his disgusting dirty smoking habit. Sascha has been slacking on his swimming routine, but is vying to get back on track. Sascha also is still smoking.
Sascha and Cody decide that they are going to quit smoking on September 15th. They discuss options on anti-smoking aids such as nicotine patches and gum, and a medication available from your physician called Chantix (US), or Champix (UK), generically known as 'varenicline', which blocks the nicotine from entering your blood stream. They also recommend encouraging your social circle not to smoke, as it helps to not have access to "bum" a cigarette from another friend, or be around the smell of the cigarette. Cody also comments that alcohol stimulates the pleasure centres of your brain, which is why one tends to smoke more, or tends to smoke at all, when consuming.
Better sleeping habits are very helpful as well. Light stimulates the body and the brain, so sleeping throughout the day will drain you. Cody has found that binaural beats (deemed "internet drugs" by Kim Commando) has been a safe and effective way for him to fall to sleep. Cody recommends http://www.healingbeats.com to find the same binaural beats he uses to fall asleep to. Sascha has tried "Somnus" tablets from his local supermarket to help him sleep better.
