As mentioned before, Capsian Leevi jogs five miles regularly as a warmup to his workouts. In order to maintain his cardiovascular health and stamina, he also adds in once per week ten mile runs where he alternates between a steady pace and a sprint. This is all in addition to his swimming where he practices holding his breath for upwards of 3 minutes. This helps the body by improving its tolerance to carbon dioxide and breathe more efficiently at different Heart Rate zones. Before games, Caspian Leevi does long breath holds to bring his body into hypoxia which forces the body to release some of its reserves of red blood cells from the spleen, providing higher capacity to transport oxygen to the muscles. All of this leads to better performance with faster muscle recovery, which results in more stamina and endurance. Caspian trains the hardest on endurance, as he believes that being able to dig deep and close out shifts and games is more important than just having skill or strength. |
