Strength & Conditioning: Eva Twardokens – Adrenal Fatigue Recovery Cycle, Week 2, Day 3

This program is meant for the person who is not efficiently secreting cortisol and feels tired much of the time. It combines strength, sprints, walking, gymnastics, and a sport of your choice.

The program is meant for the person who is not efficiently secreting cortisol and feels tired and flat much of the time. This person is also destroyed by hard workouts – initially feeling great, but hitting rock bottom a few hours afterwards. The athlete will also have a lot of soreness and unexplained aches and pains that no amount of rolling or mobility will fix. The significant reduction in cortisol secretion affects the body’s ability to reduce inflammation, and so recovery from workouts becomes difficult.

To help you recover from fatigue and get your cortisol levels back to normal, the program incorporates five elements:

  • Strength
  • Sprints
  • Walking
  • Gymnastics
  • Sport Day

The workouts will be posted six days a week. To learn more about the programming, you can read my article here. Enjoy the workouts and good luck in regaining your health and energy!

Week 2, Day 3

Walk for one hour. You can use a weight vest if desired (I recommend 20lbs).
