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.
