Become A Cognitive Athlete

How do I to regain control is a conversation that is happening all over the world. Here are 7 ways to take back control and start to sustain performance in your life.

Do you find that:

Are you too busy with meetings and emails to get your work done?

Are you constantly reacting to other’s problems and not dealing with your challenge first?

Does this lack of control stop you from finding time to do the things you need to, most important tasks, training and sleep?

Working hard and longer is not the answer, and if we do not change this, then things can snowball and lead to:

Reduced performance at work

Loss of job – increased stress and anxiety to find a new role.

Increased risk of burnout and underperformance

In this podcast, I talk about the seven ways to take back control and start to sustain performance. 

I hope that it helps you remember that taking back control starts with you; no one will do it for you. There are times during the day that we need to be reactive and proactive, of course. The more proactive we are, the reactive we can be.

Have you heard of heart rate variability, or have you been trying to improve your heart rate variability (HRV)?

HRV measures your autonomic nervous system and is one of the best objective metrics of training performance, readiness to perform and recovery state.

HRV gives you a baseline to work on and monitor, both for work and training.

In this podcast, I talk about 

What HRV is?
What effect HRV?
How to effectively measure it?
Ten ways to increase and improve it?

There might be several points here that have you thinking, "do they really have any effect?" 

We need to understand that it is a whole process. 

Training, eating and sleeping are critical for heart rate variability. However, there are lots of other things that we can build into your day to help. 

I use HRV to assess the senior leaders I work with; it helps us start the discussion and develop a performance plan.

Thanks for watching.

How do I improve my CO2 tolerance is a question that is often asked. CO2 tolerance has started to gain attention not only for improving physical performance but also for enhancing mental improvement. 

There is also a close correlation between anxiety and our ability to manage stress. In addition, increased tolerance allows us to have better control over the rate and depth of breathing.

It doesn’t matter if you are an elite athlete or a high-performing senior leader. Managing our state and nervous system is vital for health, well-being, and performance. But improving your co2 tolerance can help with this state.
