That’s the nice thing of vacation and turning off your mobile phone. You’ve got time to think! Put everything in perspective. Not only in 10 minutes, but in a few days time! And that’s when things get to you.
So after carefully thinking about all aspects in my life that need attention, focus and commitment (damn, this list is getting long!), I present you my newly made commitment to statics. Dry statics that is!
On my first workday after vacation, Monday September 7, I will start 4 weeks of doing static everyday. 7 days a week, and if I miss one and do 6 a week that’s is barely tolerable, but no physical punishment yet. Really simple and short static schedules. So no excuses to say I didn’t have the time.
In short I’m going to do max 15 minute schedules (including preparation). Stuff like 8×1 minute with 1 breath in between. FRC static schedules. Full lung max stuff without any pain.
In general focusing on tolerating co2, but mixing it with other stuff to keep it fun. No strict schedule to see which schedule to use on which day. I’m going on feeling this time.
Let’s see where this will bring me after 4 weeks. And if I still like it then, I will maybe throw in 1 or 2 contractions. Let’s make it crazy!
