With so many strategies to ensure the ‘ideal’ recovery, it’s important not to lose sight of the basics. Refuel with a carb and protein-rich snack or meal within 30-60 minutes after your training. 🥗💪 Keep yourself hydrated during and after exercising for optimal performance and recovery💧🏋️♂️ Ensure you get a good night’s sleep to get stronger and perform at your best. 😴 Using these as the building blocks to your recovery will help you get the most out of training and reduce the risk of injury, particularly during periods of high load! What is your favourite recovery strategy?

What should you include in a warm-up? Let's break it down! 💪 🏃♂️Dynamic Exercises: Focus on dynamic rather than static exercises to keep your body moving and muscles engaged. 📈Gradual Intensity Increase: Start with low-intensity movements and gradually increase the intensity to get your body ready to train or perform at its best. 🏋️♂️General and Sport-Specific Movements: While general movements are great, incorporating small doses of sport-specific actions like jumping, throwing, kicking, or change of direction can better prepare you for the demands of your sport. ✅ Body Check-In: Use this time to check in on how your body feels and functions. It's a great opportunity to identify any areas that might need extra attention before the game. For more exercises and information on how to level up your warm-ups, visit www.unitedsports.io 🏅
