Recovery after training and competition allows athletes to return to their normal physiological and psychological state as rapidly as possible. This is employed so that performance in their next competition or training session will not be unduly compromised by muscle soreness and/or fatigue. There is now increasing scientific evidence supporting the benefits of recovery (particularly hydrotherapy) to enhance exercise performance in a number of domains.
There are a number of ways to enhance recovery including:
- Rest and sleep
- Nutrition
- Warm-down, stretch
- Massage
- Hydrotherapy
- Psychological means
- Compression garments
Our staff are specifically devoted to fatigue and recovery physyiology research as well as providing recovery servicing to AIS athletes in the AIS Recovery Centre.
