The Stamina Surge

AS WE ARRIVE INTO THE “NEW NORMAL” WE NEED TO BOOST OUR STAMINA TO BE ABLE TO FUNCTION EFFECTIVELY AS WE GO FORWARD.

- Monisha Sikka

The fear and uncertainty of the last few months have taken a huge toll on each one of us, irrespective of where we live in the world. Lockdowns have severely affected our training schedules, sapping us of energy. Now, building on our physical reserve has become more important than ever.

THE MIND GAME

Admittedly, there are days when you feel lethargic and lack lustre while rolling off the bed. Train your thoughts to focus on your wellbeing. It starts with the mind. Your body can stand almost anything, provided you firm up your mental resolve. When you are at that point when your muscles are screaming and you want to just throw in the towel, it is your mind that convinces the body to run that extra stretch, hold the plank a little bit longer... A little bit of yoga, focussed breathing exercises, and a few minutes of meditation go a long way in harnessing the immense power of our minds.
