Life is stressful and all of us need outlets for such, whether it's through meditation, gardening, running, weight training, etc. For myself I relieve stress through something that I call controlled agression.
What is controlled aggression? It's allowing that pent up stress to disseminate through any physical activity in a controlled and disciplined manner. My outlet......boxing. Here's what I'm looking at today for a workout.
30 min. shadow boxing
5 - 5min rounds on the heavy bag.
jump rope 1 min between sets
Rumanian Dead Lifts - 3 sets x 6-8 rps
Back Squat - 3 sets x 6-8 rps
Bulgarian Split Squats 3 sets x 4-6 rps
Glute Ham Raises 3 sets x 3rps.
This regimen will be sure to relieve some stress. Give it a try. Just don't go out on the streets and start punching people. That's lack of discipline. Stay positive and stay strong!!!!
Best,
Norman Eng, DC, CSCS
