Embrace Your Real

The Science of Recovery


Listen Later

Hey, hey beautiful human! Today we're talking about something that does not get talked about enough in the fitness space… but it's one of the most important pieces of your results.

And that is: recovery.

I know recovery isn't as flashy or exciting as the workouts themselves. It's easy to get caught up in the mindset of "more is better"—more workouts, more intensity, more sweat. But the truth? Recovery is where the magic actually happens.

Your progress doesn't happen in the workout itself—it happens in the rebuilding process after.

So today we're breaking down:

  • What recovery really is (and what it isn't)

  • Why it's so essential for building muscle, burning fat, and staying consistent long-term

  • The science behind how your body repairs and rebuilds

  • What effective recovery actually looks like—and the most common mistakes I see women make

  • Some simple action steps you can start today to improve your recovery and feel better in your body
