Enjoyed a delightful skate ski under the Alaskan Sunset this evening. Able to work on some breath mechanics during my ski from the course today along with it. Anyone else diving into the classroom portion of the community? Lots of gold in those courses. Breathe well and have a blessed evening ❄️🌄

Just me being that weirdo doing weighted breathwork in a public gym 😅 7/11 is so powerful 💪 have a nice day!

Hey Coherence Community, Today I was supposed to hold my breathwork session for you all. Because of personal reasons I needed to book a flight and will be in the air during that hour✈️ I’ve refined the sequence and made it public on the Coherence app -> https://coherencebreath.com/sequence/5bba6c71-cb04-4d86-94cb-1ed6b70ea34f Give it a go & let me know how you flow🙏🫶 Catch y’all soon

I’m Sam Elsner. I’m just a guy who’s obsessed with how things grow. For as long as I can remember, I’ve been fascinated by the human machine—how it adapts, how it breaks, and how it rebuilds. That obsession started at 13 on a football field. I wanted to go pro. I spent years inventing new ways to optimize myself in the margins, outside of practice. Eventually, that focus shifted to the discus. And on paper? I made it. - 2x NCAA DIII National Champion. - 6x All-American. - 2016 Olympic Trials Qualifier. But here’s the thing: I was a drill sergeant to my own talent. I drilled the movements over and over in isolation. But when the lights came on and the crowd roared? It didn’t transfer. The skill stayed in the practice ring. In 2019, I hung up the shoes and went all-in on coaching. I trained my athletes exactly how I had trained myself: rigid structures, high instruction, zero variability. And the pattern repeated. They were world-class in the weight room. They were average on game day. I couldn’t wrap my head around it. Until I changed the lens. In 2020, a friend introduced me to the Ecological Dynamics Model. It’s a fancy way of saying that you can’t separate the organism from its environment. Skill isn’t a program you download; it’s a relationship you negotiate with the world around you. That idea shattered everything I thought I knew. I spent the next three years rebuilding my systems from the ground up. I stopped trying to control the athlete and started designing the environment. And suddenly, the results showed up when it actually mattered. Now, I’m taking that framework out of the gym and into the rest of life. That is the genesis of my brand Calibrate. I just recently created a Skool community for it and plan on growing a tribe of modern-day learners. https://www.skool.com/calibrate-7785/about?ref=f2423ba993e344fb98a9ca30d8434e0c We are constantly calibrating to the world around us. Solutions don’t come from force; they emerge from the mess.

What’s the best breathwork protocol when sick. Ex: vortex in the morning and a diff sequence before bed?
