As I sit in my plane seat, closing in on my destination of Vienna Austria, I'm finding myself very tired from 28hrs of travelling with very little sleep. It's time for the meal service and highly preserved foodsis all that's available. I choose to pass on the supplied food and begin to get out my aero press andporlex hand grinder and start to brew my coffee. With my coffee brewed and a travel pack of bulletproof MCT oil, little pack of butter and myareolatte I start to whip it all together. I look to the seats next to me to see some puzzled faces as to say "is this kid asking for a heart attack?" I again come to the realisation that the false pretence of fat being the enemy is everywhere, especially European areas were bread and cereal is the number one choice of food.
Of all the bio-hacks I have experimented with, breathing techniques has been the most phenomenal for me. Race weekends are very stressful and require extremely high levels of focus and intensity, so it is essential to take some time out to assess my coherence. Becoming present in the moment allows me to be better in control of the situation, stay focused, energised, and calms my nerves.
