Reasons Why I Skydive
.webp)
“Jess, why do you like skydiving so much?”
While the answer seems obvious to me, finding the words to explain why I’ve willingly jumped out of 300 planes isn’t always easy.
But I’ll give it a try.
Here are my top 3 reasons for continuously throwing myself out of a perfectly functioning aircraft:
1. Skydiving is a triple threat of happy hormones
The intense emotions and sensations created by skydiving elicit the brain to secrete a dynamically awesome chemical cocktail of adrenaline, serotonin and dopamine. The high you feel from these hormones is VERY addictive. Once you’ve dived and your feet have hit the ground, all you can think about is heading back up to chase that rush all over again.
Adrenaline: Designed to help us survive in extreme situations, adrenaline kicks in when your body senses danger. This intense hormone heightens awareness and energy levels, while increasing cognitive functions.
Serotonin: Increased serotonin levels makes you feel calmer, improves sleep quality, increases sex drive and even combats depression.
Dopamine: AKA the happy hormone, dopamine increases focus, improves memory and stimulates creativity.
Who wouldn’t want more of these incredible chemicals coursing through their body all at once?
2. Skydiving is a form of therapy and escapism
Life can be stressful, but then you jump. There are no deadlines, arguments or chores in the clouds. All of your troubles are miles away while you fly sky high with your friends.
Moreover, freefall requires laser-like focus and forces you to live in the moment. For a few minutes, nothing else matters.
3. The Community
The skydiving community is formed by an incredible group of people from all walks of life. We’re all united by our love of the sky and a relentless pursuit to live life to the fullest.
Que the dropzone, where there lives an infectious buzz of excited energy. Everyone is involved in animated conversations while they excitedly prepare to board the plane and take their turn in the sky. The energy is next level.
Are you Ready to “smash life” and take the jump?

GYMNASTICS
Tuesday morning, we're diving into all things handstand push-ups with both strict and kipping variations, plus some fun progressions to challenge your upside-down game. Expect overhead strength work and spicy core finishers, too.
Toes-to-bar will take centre stage on Thursday evening with drills on the low bar and rig to sharpen your skills. Then we’ll move on to capacity work before wrapping it up with core and lat work to boost strength, control, and coordination.
HYROX
Build the Upper body strength you need for HYROX with a focus on sled pulls, farmers carries, push-ups (to power through your burpees), push presses (for stronger wall balls) and SkiErg conditioning.
MOBILITY
We have been quite dominant with mobility for the lower body; per request, we will stick with the flows, but make sure we hit the upper body harder this weekend. This session will be aimed towards the people that have shoulder niggles.
PURE STRENGTH
This week's pure strength session marks the start of the deadlift cycle, following high-volume RDLS. We also have some heavy box squats and volume reps to finish up on Monday.

“Jess, why do you like skydiving so much?”
While the answer seems obvious to me, finding the words to explain why I’ve willingly jumped out of 300 planes isn’t always easy.
But I’ll give it a try.
Here are my top 3 reasons for continuously throwing myself out of a perfectly functioning aircraft:
1. Skydiving is a triple threat of happy hormones
The intense emotions and sensations created by skydiving elicit the brain to secrete a dynamically awesome chemical cocktail of adrenaline, serotonin and dopamine. The high you feel from these hormones is VERY addictive. Once you’ve dived and your feet have hit the ground, all you can think about is heading back up to chase that rush all over again.
Adrenaline: Designed to help us survive in extreme situations, adrenaline kicks in when your body senses danger. This intense hormone heightens awareness and energy levels, while increasing cognitive functions.
Serotonin: Increased serotonin levels makes you feel calmer, improves sleep quality, increases sex drive and even combats depression.
Dopamine: AKA the happy hormone, dopamine increases focus, improves memory and stimulates creativity.
Who wouldn’t want more of these incredible chemicals coursing through their body all at once?
2. Skydiving is a form of therapy and escapism
Life can be stressful, but then you jump. There are no deadlines, arguments or chores in the clouds. All of your troubles are miles away while you fly sky high with your friends.
Moreover, freefall requires laser-like focus and forces you to live in the moment. For a few minutes, nothing else matters.
3. The Community
The skydiving community is formed by an incredible group of people from all walks of life. We’re all united by our love of the sky and a relentless pursuit to live life to the fullest.
Que the dropzone, where there lives an infectious buzz of excited energy. Everyone is involved in animated conversations while they excitedly prepare to board the plane and take their turn in the sky. The energy is next level.
