Recovery Tips

ā€‹

"Train hard, recover harder"
 

We share some of our favourite recovery tips used to reduce risk of injuries and keep you running for longer.

We touch on topics like how much sleep you should be getting, what nutrients you need to take in after a run and the proper way to cool down after each and every session.

Warm Up Routine

ā€‹

"gradually increase your heart rate, muscle activity and joint range of motion"

ā€‹

We all know that we're supposed to warm up, but it's difficult to know exactly what to do and when to do it.

Follow the warm up routine which can be done before each running or strength session. A great way to improve your performance during the session and keep the body nimble.
