Mercury, sodium and revised workout?

[Fitgirl]

Just a few quetions

I eat alot of salmon and heard some
recent buzz about High levels of Mercury in seafood (I
usually have salmon about 2 to 3 times a week and
canned tuna about 2 times a week), just wondering if
you had any input on it, I did look it up online seems
most of the danger is in women that are in child
bearing years.

Also the senario over the weekend we went to a party
there wasnt much there that I eat so I was eating
mostly "trail mix" though I dont think it was that
salty the next day I was like a balloon (or at least
felt that way) actually was retaining about 4 pounds
of water, is this possible??

Last question the time off seems to have done me
wonders I'm doing well on weights though lost some
strength but I had increased right before feeling the
"burn out" and cardio I'm getting heart rate back
up ect. What I'm thinking is working out 6 days a
week is just too much so going to cut back to 5 just
kinda worried as far as maintaining . Also I gota lecture
yesterday lol on doing cardio the same day as weights
every one thinks I should do weights in the morning and
cardio at night (is this necessary) I'm thinking for
goals way is just fine!

BTW I'm also a circuit trainer and work 4 days a week always on and off the circuit but count that as just extra.

Eeek one more every 6mths you should take a week off
or more often? This was 2 burn outs in about 2 mths
but I think stress is a big factor.

Thanks for any input any of you may have

- not sure about any stats on it but bossman always errs on the side of caution w/ canned fish etc...if you think you're having too much than cut back a little or make it fresh fish i suppose as much as you can
- possiobly but i wouldn't think 4pds worth, combined with piss it might have though...if it's only fluid you'll be fine in a couple of days though
- 5 days is plenty
- can do either way butn seperate sessions gives you to 2 metabolism increasing oppurtunities so if you have time do all or some days with seperate sessions but really it's what time allows
- adfrenal stress (full body fatigue basically) needs to be kept down or training will put you ovder the edge like it did so if you feel it coming on again, cut training back a little
