Have you completed the 7-day Breath Hold Challenge already? No? Scroll below and go to the Classroom to get started. If you have, read on. Stig has a video for you to encourage you to keep going. Because breath holding is more than just a challenge. It is much needed pause to reset your mind, and reassess and recover.

What is the fastest way to reset the nervous system? It's something we call Relax on Demand, or 1:2 Breathing. The key is in the exhale. By extending the exhale, you give your body permission to shift to resting mode. Throw a few of these before your breath holds,, and watch the numbers go up. (and feel amazing in the mean time). Ready to give it a try? Step 1: Watch the video Step 2: Breathe like Stig for a few cycles. Stee 2: Take an inhale, start your stopwatch & hold your breath. Step 3: Post your time here, get feedback and points Step 4: Head on over to the Classroom for the rest of the challenge. Let's go & double your breath hold! 🧑‍🏫

When the contractions hit, how do you even stay relaxed? @Mark DePonzi is asking the right questions. Staying calm when the going gets tough needs a little bit more. Enter imagery. A study shows that motor imagery has a positive impact on breath hold times. How would this look in practice? You wouldn't expect it: it is imaging that you are breathing. Sensing the motions of taking a normal breath. During your hold. The golden ticket to a new personal best? Let us know 👇

What should you do if you miss a day? Last week @Priti Shah asked this great question. In the video, I give my recommendation, and news on the upgraded Breath Hold Mastery. 👋 𝗡𝗲𝘄 𝗵𝗲𝗿𝗲?

No worries, you can post and do it as much as you want (as a matter of fact, we'd only encourage it 😎) And if you done the challenge once (or twice), feel free to shake it up a little bit. Do exhale breath holds only for a week, or take it easy and do 1-2 breath holds a day without going for a max. Variety is the spice of life. Get to level 4 in the Leaderboards, and you unlock the Superhuman Lungs training protocol (who doesn't want to have lungs like the Human Dolphin?) Post all seven days, and you may be the lucky winner of the Breath Hold Mastery course 😎 And last (but not least) a little shout out to last weeks top 10 leaderboard: @Paul den Oude @Curro Cachinero @Edward Brittain @Inese Rieta @Denis Blanchard @Kristopher Pensenti @Tina Mosner @David Broberg Wilby @Luca Pinelli @Abdou Aziz
