Single nostril breathing for better breathing awareness. But adding this into a cardio session create more load on the nervous system. Training stamina.

Doing somewhere to 1-2 maybe 3 mins is a great way to work on breathing awareness. Feeling how the nostril feels with air going into and out of it. You’ll notice a difference in sides.

Me being me, I wanted to tried this while at a higher heart rate and see how my nervous system reacted to it. I tested both nostrils and find that my nervous system liked the left nostril more then the right nostril, so I guess I’ll be training my left nostril more haha 😂

Comment “👃” if you want me to show you how to do this and test it yourself.

The feeding pattern of the brain is bottom to top/back to front.

So if we look at brain areas that get fed first. Think of your autonomic nervous system (breathing, blood pressure, heart rate, etc) get fed first because the brains first job is survival. It wants to survive each second, min, hour, day.

Moving up the feeding pattern is the back to front. The back of the brain is going to be vision and as we move forward our sensory cortex gets fed, and then finally the executive function, cognitive function, and movement is fed last. We need to know where we are first because moving.

Brain has two jobs:
1. Survival
2. Movement

Two great ways to work on dual task training and vision training at the same time.

Version 1: Using the SwitchedOn® Training app, juggling tennis balls while using your peripheral vision to read the numbers out loud

Version 2: using the same app but this time looking at the screen and reading the numbers while using your peripheral vision to juggle the tennis balls.

Breathing awareness work with a couple of tennis balls and the Training | Weight Lifting | Back Support Belt. This is a great way to work on understanding where to breathe. Adding this into train aids in midline activation aka core activation.

The OKN strips training app. This is an amazing tool to use for training your visual system. OKN stands for Optokinetic nystagmus. It’s a reflex of our eyes. It can be trained for better brain activation.

Here is an easy test to see how your brain is doing. More specifically the lateral cerebellum.

The cerebellum deals with the ABCs
- accurate
- balance
- coordination

This is a coordination exercise. Let me know in the comments which side you struggled with.

Do you have a tightness lower back? It could be your QL. Try this muscle stretch exercise. Hold it for 10-20 seconds a couple times throughout the day.
