/Saturday July 1
Run 3.5 miles on Stringer's Ridge. I ran the Blue trail and I finished in 36:43. It is so great to have these trails so close to the house.
After the run, I spent some time on Mobility and then Ice bath 10 minutes
Sunday
Wim Hof start to the day
I felt like I could maybe do a bit better on the trail so I went back for another try. I ran the Blue Trail again and did finish a little better. 34:15
Back home, I tried the following workout that I got from @preparetoperform and @iamunscared from @powerspeedendurance
Workout:
A. 5/5/10/5 (inhale/hold/exhale/hold x 10
B. Right into 1 minute of full nasal inhale, half nasal exhale (think "let the breath go, dont force exhale"
Full exhale and hold for 30 seconds
C. 6/6/12/6 x 10
D. Right into 1 minute of full nasal inhale, half nasal exhale then full exhale and :30 hold
E. 3 minutes up to collar bones in ice bath
F. 5 minutes alternating pushups and squats. Full breath at top, full exhale on bottom. 1 minute each and then switch
After this, I did some more mobility work.
I liked this format and workout. It is a workout...just a different kind of workout. At the end, I was relaxed, focused and fresh.
