We had a great chat with Mike James AKA TheEndurancePhysio about all things rest and recovery!
Key Moments:
- Mike shares how rest is an active part of training, not something passive. It prepares you for upcoming sessions.
- He explains why sleep is the #1 recovery tool, calling it a "superpower." Things like nutrition and appropriate training load are also fundamental.
- We discuss how runners often gravitate toward "sexy" recovery tools like ice baths and massage guns before optimizing basics like sleep and nutrition.
- Mike explains how he has mellowed on his anti-stretching stance over time, but still sees more benefit in strength work than static stretching.
Best Quotes:
- "Recovery isn't just about getting over the sessions we've just done. It's actually preparing for the sessions we've got to come."
- "Learn to be world class at the basics and stop trying to be basic at the world class."
- "Sleep is your superpower."
- "Runners need to spend so much more time asking why."
