Recovery is not just what you do in the 30 minutes after a workout. Conventional ‘recovery tips’ tend to focus on a very short post workout period and are focused on thinks like ‘do a cool down’, ‘do some stretching or mobility’, and ‘get protein right away.’ These are all fine, but do not really address the bigger recovery picture.

True recovery is a much longer process in which your body takes all the stress you just put it through and rebuilds itself stronger. Your energy systems, cardiovascular system, nervous system, muscles, bones, joints, and brain all need resources and time to properly recover.

In this video, we cover our top 5 strategies for optimal recovery, from LEAST IMPORTANT to MOST IMPORTANT! Here is a quick rundown of what we discuss...

00:00 - Intro
01:10 - #5 - Passive modalities - how helpful are things like foam rolling and massage when it comes to recovery?
03:40 - #4 Supplements - which ones are actually useful and have good research behind them?
07:43 - #3 Nutrition and hydration - CJ and Justine discuss the important aspects of nutrition for training
10:12 - #2 Training - find out why this is the second most important point on our list!
13:14 - #1 - Our favorite recovery tool is… SLEEP! Learn a few things that are more important than the number of hours you get.
