Hi everyone, I was wondering if anybody has noticed a correlation between how tired HH sufferers get when excercising... I've been training in boxing for a few month and I seem to get WAY more tired than anybody else around me, even tho I've been training a lot longer than many people who participate.
I was wondering, is there a link? I suffer from full body HH in minutes and with this I tend to have an irregular breathing pattern.. Almost like I'm panting like a dog or something.
What are your experiences?
Mixed bag really...I used to be quite good with the whole sports/athletic thing and still quite decent compared to my friends when we go play some basketball or football (still do sometimes on saturdays), but nowadays that also says something about my friends :bigsmile:
I recognise what you're saying about the panting, I get that too...I think it also has something to do with mouthbreathing, I can't really breathe through my nose well and that doesn't help.
My experience with sporting vigourously (basketball mostly but also that 12 minutes max run test in highschool) has been kind of the same since high school; I start too hard, lungs start burning and right shoulder 'locks up' (which hurts a bit). This is usually within about 15 minutes I would say. Then I push through it, find a second set of lungs, shoulder pain fades away and I can go at '85%' for say 1,5-2 hours...After that my calves start 'grabbing' and ultimately cramping.
But that said...with boxing I'd probably die within minutes, it's very intense. I only did it once on a jumpy cushion with oversized gloves (part of day program for a bachelor's party) but wow. I think a lot is about breathing right and trying not to 'blow up'.
