Active recovery

Active recovery

Lower intensity exercise can be better than relaxing after a hard workout, would be the best way to encourage recovery.

However, research is beginning to find some advantages in active recovery, which refers to the achievement of low-intensity exercise after training.

There are two forms of active recovery, namely:

One is during the cooling phase, immediately after exertion or exercise hard.

The second form of active recovery includes the following days after an intense workout or training.

Research is growing on the benefits of both types of active recovery and a study published in Medicine and Science in Sports and Exercise, found that active recovery immediately after an event, reduces muscle lactate levels faster.

After doing hard intervals on a muscle group fully rested, exercised a second group decreasing by 30 percent intensity.

The active reduces blood lactate levels more quickly and can achieve higher power throughout the training.

Just as another study found that the addition of low intensity exercise for the period of rest after hard training or competition is not reduced to an athlete’s physical recovery and in fact had positive effects on psychological recovery, improving relaxation.

A third study found that active recovery encourages the elimination of lactic acid, which speeds recovery.

The general theory is that lowering the intensity of activity, helps blood circulation, which in turn helps to remove lactic acid from muscle.
