Active recovery is a method used to aid in the recuperation process after intense physical activity or exercise. Unlike complete rest, where you refrain from any physical activity, active recovery involves engaging in low-intensity exercises or movements designed to promote blood flow, reduce muscle soreness, and enhance overall recovery without causing further stress to the body.

Active Recovery Benefits:

Active recovery serves as a valuable tool for athletes and fitness enthusiasts alike, supporting their performance goals while also prioritizing their physical and mental health. The goal of active recovery is to stimulate circulation, flush out metabolic waste products, and promote the delivery of oxygen and nutrients to tired muscles, helping to alleviate stiffness and soreness while facilitating faster recovery. It can also help maintain flexibility, range of motion, and overall fitness levels during periods of reduced training intensity.
