Having just finished a strong three day cycle, I am ready for a rest & recovery day. Not even “active rest”, just rest. I am no Type A so I don’t obsess about days off from training or have to “do something” on those days. Yesterday, while beginning my training session, I told myself to “make it good” today and I will enjoy the time off the following day even more, and I am.

So it comes at a good time that Joe Hashey of Synergy Athletics submitted his Top Six Recovery Methods for Athletes to EliteFTS.

The Cliff Notes version is 1. Food, 2. Myofascial Release and ART, 3. Contrast showers and baths, 4. Warm-up, stretch & relax, 5. Hydrate, and 6. Relax and Zzzzzzzzzzz!

TGIF!
