Description

If you're constantly sore and exhausted, stop flexing, you're not a machine, you need to be better at recovery.

On this episode of the Fit Parent podcast, Amy and I break down recovery into the two simple factors you must master: muscular recovery (that achey, delayed onset muscle soreness) and central nervous system recovery (that total, can't-get-off-the-couch exhaustion). We give you a simple, actionable strategy to get the most out of your training, get the energy you need back for your family, and do the things you love.

We go into depth on:

  • Why recovery doesn't look like what a lot of people think.

  • How to measure central nervous system recovery and combat it.

  • How to actually fight delayed onset muscle soreness by prioritizing movement and blood flow.

  • The importance of space in your training to prevent raising your stress hormone, which blocks the benefits of your training.

  • Why all those expensive recovery gadgets are a waste of money.

Stop chasing the shiny "nice-to-have" recovery hacks and listen to this episode to find out the non-negotiable, essential must-do's you need to check off the list. Don't wait; press play and fix your recovery now.
