Accupuncture is not painful. I found it extremely helpful for neck pain and ongoing issues. One tell for a good practitioner is they are fully versed in and truly believe in TCM. Ask if they can prescribe teas or other TCM medicine, practice qigong, tai chi, etc.
I’ve never found acupuncture painful. The needles are pretty small. I listened to a podcast by the guy that wrote the nose breathing book and bought the book but haven’t finished it. I still find the nose breathing while running to be incredibly challenging.
I'm convinced it is a good idea but >120 BPM it starts to feel claustrophobic which then gets me in a death spiral of raising my heart rate until I give up, but I've been able to switch for sleeping and for most of my day. Running? That's hard.
Loved the article today. I started boxing a few months ago and have had the same experience. I do alot of KB exercises and presses at the gym but its totally different type of shoulder and back endurance with boxing. I'll try to keep some of these things in mind when I'm out there tomorrow.
The tip about not worrying about things you can't control is such an important life maxim too.
