Here is an issue we see daily with many of our athletes. UNDER RECOVERY. A term that is usually mistaken for overtraining.

Many athletes no matter what the sport or activity, can easily fall into the trap of increasing there training sessions/loads/intensity in order to improve, which is great and encouraged, however injury may occur when proper recovery is not achieved.

Recovery is aided by stretching, foam rolling, ice/warm baths, active recovery etc, but the most important aspect of recovery is SLEEP and NUTRITION 😴🍌🥑🍳!

8-10 hours sleep is required along with the right foods worked around training. Something to think about and perhaps address..

One simple tip ✅ Become good at listening to your body and weather you need that extra hour of sleep in the morning or more targeted carbs/proteins/fats throughout your day.
