Debunking Long-Standing Recovery Myths "Good To Go" Book Review Pt. 2

"Any fool can go train more...It takes courage to rest!" 

These words come from the lips of Trond Nystad the former Head-Coach for the U.S. ski team.

In a world where we celebrate excess and often think, "if some is good more is better", with many Endurance Athletes falling into the thinking that "if more is better, then A LOT MORE must be the best!" Trond's words are both powerful and appropriate. 

But what recovery methods work and which ones do we use because "we have always done it this way."? The answers might surprise you.

In this weeks podcast episode we review Chapters 4-7 in Christie Ashwanden's book "Good To Go, What The Athlete In All Of Us Can Learn From The Strange Science Of Recovery". It's a great read full of science backed myth-busting!
