About

Grimes' Training Regimen refers to an Instagram post by Canadian musician Claire Boucher or Grimes in which she describes, in partnership with Adidas by Stella McCartney, an unorthodox training regimen which includes sword fighting, screaming sessions, eyeball surgery, cellular health and astro-gliding.

Origin

On July 15th, 2019, Grimes posted an image of herself to Instagram[1] in Adidas by Stella McCartney with a caption that answers the question posed by Adidas: "Tell us about ur training regimen ?" (shown below). Her answer included cellular health, eyeball surgery, sword fighting and screaming session. The post gained over 137,400 likes in three days.




grimes ADIDAS: Tell us about ur training regimen? GRIMES: My training is a 360 approach I first maintain a healthy cellular routine where I maximize the function of my mitochondria with supplements such as NAD+, Acetyl L-Carnitine, Magnesium etc. This helps promote ATP and it's incredibly visceral. From that point I spend 2-4 hours in my deprivation tank, this allows me to "astro-glide" other dimensions past, present future In the afternoons I do a 1-2 hour sword fighting session with my trainer, James Lew, we go over the fundamentals that work the obliques, core stabilizes, and , and triceps as well as a few tricks. To wind down from this I spend 30-45 minutes on an inclined hike at roughly 4-4.5 miles per hour, arguably the most efficient workout I then spend 45 minutes stretching before heading into the studio where my mind and body are functioning at peak level, with a neuroplastic goal between 57.5 and 71.5 AphC's (which is my preferred range for my blood type) I've outfitted my studio with the highest grade of red light. It is pretty much 1000 sqf IR Sauna. Hana then comes over and we do a screaming session for 20-25 minutes while I slow boil the honey tea that maximizes vocal proficiency. I have also eliminated all blue light from my vision through an experimental surgery that removes the top film of my eyeball and replaces it with an orange ultra-flex polymer that my friend and I made in the lab this past winter as a means to cure seasonal depression. I go to bed with a humidifier on #asmc #adidasparley #createdwithadidas #gentrifymordor
