\u00a0<\/span>Efficiency<\/b><\/h2>\n

Our muscles work by\u00a0<\/span>contracting<\/span><\/strong>\u00a0\u2013 tensing up. To every motion, staying or just to sitting, we need necessary muscles to work. However, very often, we use much\u00a0<\/span>more muscle tension\u00a0<\/span><\/strong>to do the required jobs.<\/span><\/p>\n

Then, when muscles finish the job, those could:
\n<\/span>a)\u00a0<\/span>still work<\/span><\/strong>\u00a0\u2013 keep same tension,
\n<\/span>b)\u00a0<\/span>have a rest\u00a0<\/span><\/strong>\u2013 be relaxed.<\/span><\/p>\n

This\u00a0<\/span>undesirable tension consumes a lot of our energy<\/span><\/strong>\u00a0and makes us feel\u00a0<\/span>tired<\/span><\/strong>. It will massively affect the\u00a0<\/span>efficiency\u00a0<\/span><\/strong>of your body, training plan & sports goals…<\/span><\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

Also, your antagonistic muscles with undesirable tension\u00a0<\/span>work against your motion\u00a0<\/span><\/strong>\u2013 this negation of your power makes you\u00a0<\/span>slower\u00a0<\/span><\/strong>and\u00a0<\/span>weaker.
\n<\/span><\/strong>On the other hand,\u00a0<\/span>relaxed muscles spend less energy<\/span><\/strong>, making you more\u00a0<\/span>efficient<\/span><\/strong>. E.g. if a marathon runner releases 10% of his tension, he has about 10% more energy to run quicker.
\n<\/span>Then, high tension can also\u00a0<\/span>limit your training. If you relaxed your muscles, you could\u00a0<\/span>increase your training plan<\/span><\/strong>.<\/span><\/p>\n

Another reason why your relaxed body is much more <\/span>efficient\u00a0moves easier and\u00a0<\/span>quicker is higher\u00a0<\/span>sensitivity<\/span><\/strong>.<\/span><\/p>\n

Undesirable tension\u00a0<\/span>slows down regeneration\u00a0<\/span><\/strong>and\u00a0<\/span>produces toxins<\/span><\/strong>.<\/span><\/p>\n

Too tensed tissue is the cause of many sports injuries. Too tensed muscles, tendons & ligaments are more\u00a0<\/span>fragile\u00a0<\/span><\/strong>(like too drawn spring of a guitar) \u2013 it can be easily\u00a0<\/span>injured<\/span><\/strong>.
\n<\/span>Therefore it is essential to increase the elasticity of your tissue.<\/span><\/p>\n

Relax creates a positive cascade effect.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

How can we get rid of undesirable tension?<\/span><\/strong><\/h2>\n

 <\/p>\n

Firstly it is essential to be\u00a0<\/span>aware of undesirable tension<\/span><\/strong>. Therefore, practice<\/span>\u00a0dynamic meditations<\/a><\/span><\/strong>\u00a0to develop an awareness of your tension – develop\u00a0<\/span>internal feeling<\/span><\/strong>\u00a0(<\/span>kinesthesia\u00a0<\/span><\/strong>and\u00a0<\/span>proprioception).\u00a0\u00a0<\/span><\/strong>Internal feeling massively affects the intensity of life.<\/span><\/p>\n

Crucial is to have a good,\u00a0<\/span>balanced posture<\/span><\/strong>. Remember: every disbalance of your posture is compensated by undesirable tension!<\/span><\/p>\n

It helps to have a lot of inner Fire<\/strong><\/a> (vital energy Chi \/ Qi \/ Prana \/ Kundalini \/ Zhiva)<\/a>.
\nFire lifts you up<\/strong><\/a>, and you can use fewer muscles’ power – be more relaxed.<\/p>\n

Expanding<\/span><\/strong><\/a> naturally relaxes your body. Condense<\/strong> <\/a>tens you up, study this aspect and be aware of it!
\nAnd again, you can replace muscles work with the power of expanding and condensing fasciae<\/strong>.
\n<\/span><\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

Very helpful are\u00a0<\/span>bodywave – waving movements<\/span><\/strong><\/a>\u00a0because waves naturally break down the rigid tissue. If you try to wave, let the kinetic energy flow via your body, your brain subconsciously turns off a lot of undesirable tension to be able to flow.<\/span><\/p>\n

Stretching\u00a0<\/span><\/strong><\/a>is an excellent method not just to make your body more elastic and supple, but also get rid of undesirable tension.<\/span><\/p>\n

Breathing\u00a0<\/span><\/strong><\/a>has a massive influence on your tension. Be aware of holding your breath to do some job and get rid of this bad habit. With breathing exercise, you can realise pain and muscles tension.<\/span><\/p>\n

Another way which could be helpful to get rid of undesirable tension is\u00a0<\/span>massage therapy.<\/span><\/strong><\/a>\u00a0You can massage yourself or visit a specialist who usually can turn off a lot of your muscle tension by stimulation of your muscles & attachments.
\n<\/span>No wonder that professional sports teams have a club massage therapist… Massage is also an excellent method to\u00a0<\/span>prevent injury<\/span><\/strong>.<\/span><\/p>\n

The crucial thing is your mindset. Physical tension is directly linked with mental tension\u2013<\/span>stress.<\/span><\/strong><\/a><\/p>\n

With the awareness of tension in your physical body, you can start building up good habits to manage your mental and physical tension subconsciously<\/strong><\/a>.<\/span><\/p>\n

There are also other methods of how to relax, e.g. a sauna, super dynamic movements etc.; However, the best is to combine all the mentioned methods.<\/span><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
