Heart rate variability (HRV): the strongest indicator of performance recovery

Imagine the match of your life. Tennis match. You hold a racket in your hand and take a few deep and slow breaths to concentrate before you hit the ball. Or think of Shavasana, the state of deep relaxation at the end of each yoga class. In both situations we use the breath to calm the mind. This can also be measured in our body using heart rate variability (HRV). A higher HRV goes hand in hand with mindfulness, relaxation and mental presence. Learn to use HRV to achieve your desired fitness and health state.

The biochemistry of love (and what happens in your body when you fall in love)

When does everything seem possible in life? When we're in love. When we fall in love, a cascade of hormones and neurotransmitters such as serotonin and dopamine are released, ensuring increased excitement, happiness and satisfaction in life. While we can't fall in love every season as James Bond does, we can do a variety of other activities to increase the production of these chemicals. HIT training is one of them.

21 tips for great sleep (and sharp mind and forever 21 look)

Why someone who regularly sleeps well and enough, is up to 50% more cognitively powerful and looks younger? Why is chronic fatigue so widely accepted? Our performance society demands it from us! Donald Trump boasts of only 4 hours of sleep, we see what comes out of it. Today we know that 4-5 hours of sleep is enough for a few people. These people have a genetic mutation (what an advantage! - the X-men of sleep). Everyone else needs 8 hours of eyes. Basta!
