Ep. 4: Recovery Tips for Cyclists
Frank Overton
This week on the podcast, we're diving deep into recovery for cyclists. Have you ever heard the mantra, "Train hard, recovery harder"? It's true; recovery is an absolute cornerstone for performing as an athlete, and it must be taken seriously. We walk through the fundamentals (the practices that make up 80-90% of recovery) plus the additional 10-20% "marginal gains" that can be added in to maximize recovery and performance as a cyclist. In this episode, you'll learn:
- The top 3 fundamental components of optimizing recovery as an athlete
- What an ideal recovery routine looks like
- Some of Frank's favorite recovery tools and secrets
- What's up with Cryotherapy and sensory deprivation tanks?
- Plus more!
