Recover Like a Pro: The Power of Rest for Runners


Listen Later

Episode 9 - REST and RECOVERY- Why do we need to, which are the best, how can we manage it ourselves?

 

Do I need more REST?

Sometimes you can tell. Like when you can't walk down the stairs. Other times it's not so obvious. If you're wavering about taking a break, Vincent suggests asking yourself these three key questions:

  1. Did my last few runs feel harder than usual, even though they were the same training paces and distances as previous ones?
  • Do I feel less motivated to run today?
  • Does running feel more like a chore than something I enjoy?
  • We also talk about recovery options, ice baths and saunas etc

    Days like these where we get all TECHO...we are grateful to have Jussies amazing mind onboard... So have a listen a learn more about rest and recovery.
