Defining and Understanding Recovery

Performance gains can't happen during training. They ONLY happen while your body is at rest...or recovering.

Proper recovery is structured and planned just as you plan your swim, bike or run workouts. But most athletes lack the "recovery awareness" that would otherwise help them get past major performance plateaus. In this exclusive video, recovery research pioneer, Matthew Weatherly-White, defines recovery and discusses the best way athletes can approach it. This is a clip from a presentation that was recorded live at the 2012 USA Cycling International Coaches Summit.
