Finding the Ideal Temperature for Cold Water Immersion

The only way to really know if cold immersion works for you is to get a tub, fill it with ice, or invest in a dedicated setup like the insulated tubs with chillers from our friends at Ice Barrel.

Hip Extension

If you’re serious about your training and sprinting faster, you need to focus on it. Squats and deadlifts have their place, but they won’t give you the movement pattern needed to drive your sprint performance. The key is knee behind your glute to build speed and power when and where it counts.

Don’t PANIC

One of the biggest takeaways was the long-term impact of physical activity. It’s not just about being active today, but setting kids up for a lifetime of better cognitive function and mental health. By engaging in physical activity from childhood into adolescence, kids are priming the pump with stronger minds and bodies for the life ahead of them.
