Recovery habits
Gym (women) / Popular
Sleep, deloads and managing soreness across a training block.
What coaches agree on
- Treat sleep as your #1 recovery tool: more repair and adaptation happens during a good night's sleep than through any other recovery method.
- Build real rest into your training block: strength and muscle gains are made during the recovery period after a hard session, not during the session itself.
Show moreShow less
- Eat protein, plus carbohydrate for longer or cardio sessions, both before and after training, since that combination fuels the muscle repair happening during recovery.
Common mistakes
- Looking for a magic recovery gadget or supplement (cryotherapy, infrared saunas, compression boots) instead of tackling sleep, nutrition, and everyday stress load first.
