@brottbrotherr: HYROX Denver is officially 7 days away, so its time to taper and RECOVER. For someone addicted to training, taking time away from training is tough, but makes the difference when competition time arrives. 1. Sleep is the absolute most important of these. 2. Stretching and foam rolling every night before bed helps me wind down and feel mobile the next day. 3. Contrast therapy is definitely my favorite… sauna, then cold plunge. I avoid cold plunges right after workouts since they’re proven to constrict blood flow from the cold temperature. These together, timed right, are the best way to enhance sleep and feeling AMAZING. 4. Normatec leg compression feel INCREDIBLE. I encourage any athlete out there to get themselves a pair and experience the blood circulation benefits…. You can literally feel your heart beating in your legs from the blood pressure! 5. Diet is the one most people struggle with (me included). 1 gram of protein per pound of bodyweight, more carbs to fuel up for race day, less sugar and ZERO alcohol. 6. Rest days that are ACTUALLY rest days. If you want to move, get active recovery but training more at this point won’t change much. 7. Another favorite of mine is the mental recovery. Starting a business and having to manage all that it requires from you, leads to a busy mind…. But when I leave the tech behind and go for a walk, stroll or gaze at the sun, all that disappears momentarily. This helps me rest cognitively, which lets me stay focused on the other 6! Whether you’re racing at HYROX Denver, training for something else or just interested in recovery protocols, what does that look like for you? Lmk👇 This is Day 8 of Off the Wall, so follow along as I take one idea off my wall every day for the rest of the year! #hyrox #hyroxdenver #hyroxtraining #recovery #hybridtraining
