… and recovery.

As soon as I’m out of the water I take:

IM8 multi-nutrient
BodyMe organic vegan protein
vitalityPRO creatine and marine collagen (sustainably sourced)*

Followed by a meal as soon as I get home and then I usually sleep 💤

Why?

✨ Better recovery
💪 Muscle repair
💥 Energy replenishment
🩸 Get my blood sugar up - I can feel lightheaded after a depth session even though I eat and I take carbs before I dive (Vitargo | Fastest Muscle Fuel for Endurance, Power, and Recovery is my go to).

*I would like to switch to a vegan collagen - suggestions welcome 🌱💚

I might compete under my national flag but I live in an international community and home is wherever I am.

The International Flag of Planet Earth is a proposal, an ethos I wholeheartedly embody and a flag I am so proud to fly - a flag of the future, the flag all of us can come under 🌍💙🌎💚🌏

Some snippets from Friday WELLNERGY festival - rest is where the magic happens 💫✨

Really impressed with this festival - a comprehensive and fun gathering of all things health and fitness. Lovely to have been a small (but essential) part of it - without rest we will never win 🤍

… they’re a real thing and I usually try and plan something fun for straight after.

This time it was a shoot with my dear friend at our fav spot - Shark Observatory in Ras Mohammed National Park.

We were joined by for safety and bts camera and friends 💕✨🍾

Sea jeans are super comfy on land and surprisingly easy to swim in - thank you for the kind gift 💙

2. Gates of Allah
4. Dry bag as cool bag and packed with blocks of frozen tofu to keep it chilled and to give to David since I was flying the next day and wouldn’t be eating.
5. The entrance to Shark Obvs - it’s the most magnificent place to dive.
6.BTS - Renny ‘Ruuuuth don’t dive so deep’ always this 😂😂
9. Never tired of seeing camels in the desert 🥰
10.And the last slide - that bottle has a whole story of its own from Istanbul to Hurghada then a road trip to Sharm, finally it was nice to pop it and share it with friends ✨💕

Recovery, rest, reset… the last two and a half weeks have been a lot.

My first comp in a year, returning to FDW, hopes and expectations (always troublesome), things outside my control (ditto), disappointments, planning and adapting plans… and all at the end of a long training period in Sharm 😅

Still, I remembered just why I love comp dives - there’s nothing like them 😁 so now…

Today - recovery

Tomorrow - rest

Day after - super nice dive and my second and last dive of comp.

Shot from a few weeks ago by my dear friend ❤️

And I couldn’t be doing this without the support of .pro and .co and the coaching and support of .k_inesiology - I can not thank you enough 🙏🩷
