Quote: Change is Constant

"The present is just a wall between yesterday and today. If you go to the beach, you see water and you see sand.  There looks like there is a line between them.  But the line is not a third thing.  There is only water, and there is only sand.  Similarly, all moments in time are either in the past or in the future, which is to say the present does not exist."

Training: Conditioning: Cardio Work: Recreate High Altitude Training

Work on a series of breath training by holding your breath. Take in a little bit of air, then let out all your air and go for a walk.  Hold your breath for as many steps as you can take without breathing.  For example, take 10 steps without taking in air and gradually build the number of steps.  This starves your lungs of oxygen.  Do the series once a day eight or ten times in a row.
