The OCR Underground podcast is jammed backed with useful training tips to  help you train for your next obstacle course race.  In this episode I share my experience after hosting our latest Deka Strong and Deka Mile weekend.  It was a crazy weekend with over 80 participants.  I love hosting and participating in these events.  Can't wait for the next one.  

In my research review I discuss a study that looked into HRV biofeedback and how simple breathing exercises helped improve sleep and potential improve recovery.  I also share some practical ways you can implement this.  If you have regular sleep issues I highly recommend trying this out.  

I also share 3 ways to spice up your training.  It is easy to get stuck in a rut with your regular training routine.  There are thousands of ways to progress and alter your training to help reduce boredom and break through plateaus.  In this episode I share 3 of my favorite ways to help you in this regard.  If you are feeling bored with your current training plan or like you aren't seeing the results you want, check these out.
