• i had a soccer game apointed today, it was cancelled :( But, i still want to do exercise today, mostly cardio. Im returning from a long cardio break, so i assume im not at my best spot. What is recomended in my situation?

  • If you're returning to cardio after a long break, it's important to ease back into your routine to prevent injury and overexertion. Here are some general recommendations:

    1. Start Slow: Begin with shorter, less intense sessions. Walking or light jogging is a good starting point.
    2. Listen to Your Body: Pay attention to how your body feels during and after exercise. If you feel pain or extreme fatigue, it's a sign to slow down or rest.
    3. Gradual Progression: Gradually increase your duration and intensity over several weeks. This helps your body adapt safely.
    4. Include Rest Days: Ensure you have rest days to allow your muscles to recover.
    5. Stay Hydrated and Nourished: Proper nutrition and hydration support your exercise routine and recovery.
    6. Consider Cross-Training: Including other forms of exercise, like cycling or swimming, can be beneficial without overloading one type of physical activity.

    These are standard practices, and you should consider consulting a fitness professional for personalized advice. If you have access to Huberman Lab episodes, they might offer specific guidance from experts in exercise physiology.
