Steve Ingham @inghamsteve.bsky.social · 08/12/2024Simplest fitness programme; 1. Do exercise you enjoy 2. Exercise everyday 3. Prioritise aerobic exercise most days, even if it is as simple as a walk 4. Add resistance work 2-3 /wk 5. If you want to add challenge, inc areas you avoid, eg HIT, leg weights 6. If not enjoying it, go back to 1. 080

Steve Ingham @inghamsteve.bsky.social · 28/11/2024Sounds a lot more productive than some eg 55 mins in a pool just to get lactate below 2 000
Steve Ingham @inghamsteve.bsky.social · 28/11/2024Good question! I’m not aware that it has a blunting effect as ice baths seem to, but could it take the edge of training response, could it deplete CHO stores if excessively long, could it add more to impact load without helping? I’d say each are plausible! 000
Steve Ingham @inghamsteve.bsky.social · 27/11/2024Love that. What would the mental WD be? Visualising low intensity exercise 😅 or visualising something else, maybe something descending, going down some stairs, number of Twitter users… 200
Steve Ingham @inghamsteve.bsky.social · 27/11/2024I also wonder if removing them is a light version of BFR. Say for example you take 30 mins of hard interval training to create challenging metabolic conditions in the muscle, only for a cool down to attempt to reverse it. Couldn’t you amplify cell signalling by removing the cool down?? 110
Steve Ingham @inghamsteve.bsky.social · 27/11/2024Controversial (maybe?) performance hypothesis; The cool down does not improve training response, improve next day readiness, reduce soreness… when training sessions and progressions are carefully planned. Are benefits are limited to ritual and mental transition!? 260
