I’ve recently got into running so I thought I’d give this book a try. I think it provides some really valuable insights and is presented in a clear and easy to follow away. Definitely lots of actionable steps to take away.

This is an excellent resource for any athlete (not just professionals) looking for recovery strategies. I hike, many miles for many days, and found the first edition of Sage Rountree’s “The Athlete's Guide to Recovery “incredibly useful — this updated edition adds even more of her practical tips, backed by more recent research. It is an accessible resource for athletes of all sorts, and makes the case that recovery should be planned into training and activities. She covers yoga, foam rolling, stretching, sleep and other strategies that I’ve incorporated into my hiking prep and days on the trail.

Thanks to NetGalley and the publisher for the digital ARC.
