Active Recovery – Yoga – Stretching – Post Heavy Workout #PreventInjury
Yesterday I did 500 squats and today my legs are just smashed. So sore. So rather than just passively sit down and heal I regularly do what’s called “Active Recovery”.
Walking, hiking, Yoga, stretching, light biking etc. Nothing too intense. My #1 goal in life is to AVOID DOCTORS. Performing active recovery helps prevent injury. No injury, no doctor!
I am teaching Active Recovery Yoga along with Strength & Fitness & Guided Stretching in my private Orange, CT studio
