A day at Lions Gate: training, recovery and work
Lions Gate publishes a sample day in Tulum: morning training, protected work blocks, a recovery circuit and dinner with the cohort. Treat it as an example, not a promise.
Disclosure: Lions Gate Retreats is a Chronicle partner. Facts below come from lionsgateretreats.com as read on 12 October 2026 and can change, so confirm on the official site before you decide.
The sample day
This is the schedule shown on lionsgateretreats.com on 12 October 2026. It is an example. Ask Lions Gate whether your dates follow it.
| Time | Block |
|---|---|
| 7:30 am | Breakfast |
| 8:00 am | Training (one hour) |
| 11:30 am | Work time at a cenote |
| 1:00 pm | Lunch, then a two hour work block |
| 4:00 pm | Recovery circuit (sauna, ice bath, steam, hot tub) |
| 7:00 pm | Dinner with the other founders |
| 9:30 pm | Bedtime |
What stands out
Only one hour of training is shown in the sample morning, with about five hours of work-friendly time before the recovery circuit. For a founder that ratio is the point: the day is built to hold training and real work, not replace one with the other.
Work and connectivity
The site says there are protected periods between activities for work and calls, reliable high-speed WiFi, and coworking and an AI Club community access on Tuesdays and Thursdays. If your work involves regular video calls, ask about time zones, noise and where calls can be taken. More on this: Entrepreneur retreats with time to work.
Recovery
The circuit is listed as sauna, ice bath, steam and hot tub, and the program page also names breathwork, temazcal, sound healing, restorative yoga and massage. These are general wellness practices, not medical care. If you have a heart condition, blood pressure issues or similar, ask your clinician about heat and cold exposure.
What to confirm
Whether training times shift with excursions, how many rest days there are, and what the evening looks like beyond dinner. Training detail is in Lions Gate training: boxing, Muay Thai and jiu-jitsu.
Making the day work for a founder
The shape of the sample day suggests a simple approach: do the demanding thinking after training and before the evening, not during the heat of the day. Plan your calls into the two work blocks, tell your team the hours you will be reachable, and batch email. Keep the first week light on commitments, because settling into training takes energy.
If your role needs a lot of live meetings, ask how many of the work hours fall in your usual meeting window. Tulum time may differ from your home time zone, and that affects which blocks are actually usable.
