@lukas.performance: At the end of practice, the body is still in a high-stress state. Heart rate is up. The system is activated. Everything is still in “go” mode. If nothing changes, recovery just gets delayed. So sometimes, we take a few minutes to shift it. Slow, controlled breathing. In through the nose. Out through the nose. It helps move the body from a sympathetic state into a parasympathetic one - where recovery can actually begin. #strengthandconditioning #breathingexercises #meditationpractice #basketballtraining #athletemindset
