Extreme Sports to Give a Try Today

Rock Climbing

Rock climbing's a lot more intensive than it might seem. And no, we're not talking about outrageous free-climbing trials for the best of the best. Just going to your everyday climbing gym will do just fine. 

Rock climbing is one of the most strenuous of the extreme sports you're going to want to try. Your forearms are going to get blasted and you're going to start developing real, applicable strength for your daily life. 

Once you start getting more experienced, there's a ton of room for growth to start getting into more exciting climbs.

Motocross

This one isn't for the faint of heart either. Motocross sports can be exceptionally dangerous, but a whole lot of fun. 

 For a couple times here and there, motocross doesn't get too expensive. You can get a rental easily and have a great weekend on the track. But if you're looking for a long-term hobby, this is the extreme sport to get into. Motocross is a great return on investment. 

Skydiving

The joyride of all joyrides. Skydiving is the most unforgettable adrenaline rush of your life. Not something to take lightly if you're looking for a thrill.

This isn't really a habitual extreme sport, but it's well worth a try at least once or twice. However, the impact can't be understated. Many people have felt beyond the exhilaration, a feeling of rejuvenation.

What are Extreme Sports Good for?

There's no grand measurement or particular set of criteria the sport has to hit for it to be considered extreme. However it takes an extraordinary level of bravery and calm, to be able to consistently bring yourself to go back again. That's what can really set these sports apart from those just looking for a fun new hobby and finding a new passion. Extreme sports are a lot different than being on the school team. 

Sense of Danger

Life-threatening danger isn't a necessary component, but it can make the whole experience a great deal more exciting. Measure this strictly, though. You don't want to go out on a limb in something that's completely out of your comfort zone. Test the waters and give something new a try that challenges you. But don't get yourself into danger unnecessarily with minimal experience. Take it step by step and slowly ramp it up as you go. 

Strenuous Tasks

On top of being rigorous in danger, the activity themselves are often rigorous in physical output as well. Some can get you in tip-top shape pretty quickly. Take white water rafting, for example. You'll never know an arm workout until you're battling against the waves in a fight for keeping your head above water. Doing this regularly is tougher to do with the team it takes to compile. When you do it right, though? Your arms will be steel.

Find a Lifestyle Balance

Don't go overboard with the new sport you settle on right away. That's a tried and true way to get yourself hurt. Something new will always be exciting. Chances are, you want to go out and start crushing your new skill. Again, similarly with how we treat danger, balance it out with your lifestyle. If you go from never hitting the gym to rock climbing three or four times a week, there's a huge chance you get drained quickly and tap out. 

Avoid this with a metered approach that you again ramp up. Try it a handful of times to see if you like it, then move to once or twice a week. As you go and get better, you'll develop stamina for it and not lose as much productivity in the workplace or at home.

Although, either way, there's going to be some growing pains that you'll need support through. Fortunately, we've got just the thing at Troomy.

How Can I Work Adaptogenic Mushrooms Into Extreme Sports?

Adaptogenic mushrooms are superfoods that have become increasingly popular over the last decade or so. However, their support properties have been used internationally for thousands of years.

The primary function they're used for is to support:

  • Exercise recovery
  • Getting better sleep
  • Elevating focus
  • Increasing productivity

Functional, adaptogenic mushrooms achieve these through vitamins, minerals, and more. If you're curious about them and want to learn more, you can take a look here to checkout some of the most impactful adaptogenic mushrooms used in nootropics today.

As for extreme sports, these mushrooms are the perfect support to get started with. Luckily, these little beasts are easy to incorporate into your diet, and start getting support from as you start your path into using adaptogenic mushrooms. What it really comes down to is your preference, time, and overarching goal. 

Mushroom Powder Supplements

Powder supplements are perfect if you have smoothies regularly or are juicing already. Tapping in one more burst of nutrition and natural boosters is never a bad idea. 

However, the prep is a bit unique with mushroom powders. Chances are, they aren't always going to have the best flavors. They'll also always have to be paired with something, as they are not a sole-supplement you can just pop and go.

Cooking Raw Mushrooms

Cooking's a ton of fun to try adaptogenic mushrooms with. You can get yourself involved with all kinds of recipes, try new foods, and experience good nutrition in a new way. 

The thing with raw adaptogenic mushrooms in particular is that they're difficult to find in your average store. They're also going to take a bit of extra meal prepping on your end to be ready for taking out on the water, for rock climbing, or whichever extreme sport you're getting into.

Gummy Mushrooms

Gummy mushrooms are the perfect middle ground between cooking with mushrooms and having powder supplements. Get all of the support you need for your daily routine with zero prep time or caffeine. 

Luckily, it's easier than ever to get started!
