Stretching, Sauna, Breath-Work, Cold Plunge
My Ritual: Stretching, Sauna and Cold Plunge
It feels close to meditation, but with Future or Lil Wayne playing, I can't really call it that.
Every day I set aside 15-20 minutes to stretch. I fit in some breathing exercises while I'm doing it, and all of it usually happens before I lift.
It feels a lot like a meditative practice to me. But the soundtrack is Future or Lil Wayne, so calling it meditation doesn't quite work.
After that comes the sauna and the cold plunge. I aim for 10-15 minutes in the sauna and do some breath work there. Then I get in the cold plunge and stay as long as I can take it.
