How to take rest / active recovery days & why | #139
In this solo episode I speak on the importance of rest and recovery days, and my personal rest and active recovery day protocols. Whether you’re a pro athlete, weekend warrior, or not involved in sports as all - I think rest and recovery days are incredibly important, and I tend to even structure my work routine, not just training routine, with the same approach.
Topics:
Terminology, such as: nervous system, parasympathetic vs sympathetic states, periodization, volume & intensity, cognitive stress
Why discipline doesn't mean not taking any days off (and toxic hustle culture)
Why athletes / workaholics often struggle to take days off
How often I take rest days
How often I take active recovery days and what I do for training on those days
Self-regulation and being reactive with your training schedule
Deload weeks and taking an offseason
