How to Recover Better: Beyond Sleep and Nutrition | #41 ft. Aaron Geiser
In this episode of the Critical Oxygen podcast, Coach Aaron Geiser and I discuss various recovery tactics beyond sleep and nutrition. We explore the benefits of cold plunge therapy, including improved sleep and mental toughness. Heat therapy, such as saunas and hot baths, may also aid in recovery and heat acclimation. Massage therapy and trigger point therapy are effective in releasing tension and improving blood flow. We also explore recovery tactics that help athletes de-stress and increase blood flow to optimize performance.
TAKEAWAYS
1) Recovery tactics beyond sleep and nutrition can aid in faster de-stressing and improved blood flow.
2) Cold plunge therapy can improve sleep, mental toughness, and circulation.
3) Heat therapy, such as saunas and hot baths, can aid in recovery and heat acclimation.
4) Massage therapy and trigger point therapy can release tension and improve blood flow.
5) Recovery tactics should focus on de-stressing and increasing blood flow.
Enjoy!
