SOULFUL SURRENDER YOGA šæ
The more I learn about healthy aging, the more interested I am in the markers that give us a glimpse into how our bodies are functioning. Iām simply sharing what Iām learning along the way. š¤
Two Iāve been paying closer attention to are VOā max and HRV.
VOā max is a marker of cardiovascular fitness and our bodyās ability to use oxygen efficiently. HRV gives us insight into recovery and how our nervous system is responding to exercise, sleep, stress and everyday life.
My numbers are in a good place todayābut they havenāt always been. Thatās exactly why I continue to track them. Not to chase perfection, but to notice patterns and make intentional choices with my movement, workouts, sleep and recovery that may help optimize them over time.
For me, this is what wellness in midlife looks like: learning, adjusting and investing in the body I want to carry with me for years to come.
Not just more yearsābut more life in those years. šæ
