The Recovery Pyramid: How to Maximize Recovery with an Evidence-Based Approach

Welcome to the 7th edition in the Ignite Your Run Education Series. In this mini-webinar, we covered 'The Recovery Pyramid: How to Maximize Recovery with an Evidence-Based Approach.'

Recovery is a pivotal and often overlooked area for most endurance athletes. In order for consistent training to make you a better athlete, you must consider how you are recovering to improve performance & reduce the likelihood of injury. Without it, you are left working hard but not actually adapting to your efforts.

  1. The effectiveness of various forms of recovery interventions

    • Sleep & relaxation

    • Nutrition & hydration

    • Water immersion (Cold, warm, & contrast)

    • Compression garmets

    • Stretching

    • Active Recovery

    • Massage & soft-tissue work
