"Active recovery helps clear blood lactate, the pesky metabolic byproduct that builds up during exercise and contributes to muscle fatigue."
"According to a 2022 study published in the Strength and Conditioning Journal, various active recovery protocols showed alleviation of soreness, prevention of muscle strength loss, improvement in flexibility and a decrease in inflammation."
Recovery fitness is projected to reach $1.5 billion by 2025, driven by demand for products like massage guns, sleep trackers, and more. Recovery methods emphasize passive self-care but can also include cost-free active recovery techniques. Active recovery days, integrated into training, can alleviate soreness, prevent injury, and enhance overall training. A 2022 study highlights benefits such as improved flexibility, decreased inflammation, and maintenance of muscle strength. Additionally, active recovery aids in the clear-out of blood lactate, contributing to better performance and mental clarity.
