NOTE

Recover technique with Incremental Gains

Reducing muscular load is essential for recovery, allowing muscles to recover effectively. Implementing incremental changes can help enhance leg performance and responsiveness. Starting with small exercises like fast strides can increase muscle tension and engagement because they require quick force application. Other effective techniques include short bouts of jumping rope, which promotes a reactive muscle response. Plyometric exercises, particularly when initiated in a pool, reduce eccentric load and fatigue, making them ideal for those who feel flat. Transitioning from pool-based plyos to ground exercises helps maximize responsiveness. Additional methods such as reactive hops, quick-foot movements, and drop jumps from elevated surfaces can significantly improve muscle reactivity and overall performance.
