When the chips are low, when you feel a little exhausted from work at office, and if you don't feel like being a mouse on a wheel at the gym for an hour or so, or shooting your adrenals in the loud music pumping RPM class late at night, you might go for nature-based outdoor primal movement.
As indoor buildings which include gyms are 95% more polluted then outdoor in terms of air quality, a short drill of primal movement outdoor around nature might just be the tonic for you after a stressful day at work. Unless you are cultivating energy (work-in exercise), a quality short whole body movement circuit (6-7 rounds) is beneficial yet does not produce high amount of cortisol production.
Avoid strenuous workout session at least 3 hours before you actual circadian rhythm (10pm), due to cortisol suppressing melatonin sleep hormone which can prevent you from getting quality deep sleep.
When you workout, your body breaks down, catabolic state. Your body rebuild itself (anabolic) during para-sympathetic phase during sleep. Bottom line, you will achieve optimum growth and results if you go to bed early and feed your body with high quality nutrition from whole foods and non of that junk nor toxic protein powders.
Enjoy the nature and move freely and rediscover the inner child in you. Enjoy the short exercise video below shot at local training ground.
Nice! Outdoor training is always welcome
