What the F#@%$ck is Recovery?
So is napping recovery? Is stretching better than rolling? What do you mean I should not be sore. No pain, no gain, dude! Of course I want to sleep better and longer, but then at what time do I work out if I am effing sleeping 8 hours? Should I ice or not? Should I run on my recovery days or should I do yoga? Why is Francine talking to me about floating chambers, and why is Henrick massaging himself weirdly with that percussion drill.
