How can we manipulate the two for user success?
“We spend so much time and energy designing programs and arguing about ‘best’ exercises or ‘best’ session designs, and yet so little time reflecting on how best to positively manipulate training and competition contexts to optimally reduce the negative impacts

Parasympathetics & Exercise
Acute high stress, demand, and or intense situations (ex. exercise or winning 5 Super Bowls)

The See Saw Of Autonomics
The optimal position is to flow in and out of the two systems based on the given task demands
Rock and electronic music increases sympathetic activity
Relaxing music post-workout has been shown to activate parasympathetic activity and decrease sympathetic activity
Quick and rapid forceful exhalations before an activity can ramp up sympathetics
Tempoed respiration aids in shifting back into a parasympathetic state
Lower intensity movements can aid in toning down the ANS
Higher intensity movements stimulates stress hormones to mobilize fuel substrates, improve electrical firing, and increase heart rate
Light exposure can lead to improvements in mood, energy, and sleep quality
Decreased exposure to sunlight can lead to cognitive impairment
