Active Recovery

• 20-30 minutes of light-moderate cardio of your choice (optional)
• 15-20 minutes of foam rolling

Foam rolling is a great (but slightly painful) method to get rid of soreness by breaking up lactic acid buildup in the muscles.

Do 20-30 rolls over each muscle group (here’s a great look at how to do this): quads, glutes, calves, hamstrings, upper back, lower back, piriformis, ubulus…. it’s boring but it’s part of my life.

Utilize this active recovery day to get rid of any soreness buildup from this week’s workouts.
