Stepped Recovery... |
Since returning back to the UK from Spain/France in December and moving back to Wales in January, I have been just ticking over really and concentrating on more personal well being than driving any training objectives. With the addition of the new Routing Roof it seems some new psyche has been sparked to train more consistently. Getting back to full fitness usually takes about 3 cycles of 6 week training blocks, so that takes me to around October, which is cool... Literally...cooler!
Integrating sports massage into my training is part of my plan to try and avoid injury and speed recovery...
"Combining sport massage as part of
your training can significantly reduce the risks of overuse injuries and
also aids recovery by reducing muscle fatigue. For climbers really looking to optimize performance,
resting for appropriate lengths of time between climbing sessions and
body conditioning, are incredibly important (and often overlooked)
aspects of any training schedule. If you are already
suffering from muscle fatigue or specific climbing related injuries such
as sore shoulders, sports massage is an incredibly effective method of
relieving fatigue and injuries, allowing you to achieve a high level of
performance".
