Description

This week on The Confident Body Show, Michael Dermansky is joined by sports physiotherapist Kusal Goonewardena to unpack the often-overlooked key to strength and performance: recovery.

They dive into why recovery isn’t just rest—it’s a structured part of every smart training plan. From sleep quality and hydration to stress, nutrition, and tracking tools like HRV, Kusal shares how to spot when your body isn’t bouncing back and what to do about it.

Whether you're training regularly or just want to feel better day to day, this episode helps you understand how to balance effort with recovery for real results—especially if you're over 50.
