So, I spend most of my days in a lab, tweaking sound edits and running tests, but outside of work, I’ve always been drawn to extreme sports. Recently, I’ve been pushing myself to try more adrenaline-heavy activities like rock climbing and parkour. For those who’ve made a similar jump, what were some of the less obvious challenges you faced?
I’m guessing the physical demands are a given, but I’m curious about the mental side like how you handle the shift from a controlled lab environment to something so unpredictable. And for someone used to precise sound editing, does the chaos of extreme sports ever feel overwhelming? Any tips for bridging that gap?
