Day 4 – Active Recovery Day

In between your training days, you’ll have active recovery days.

These aren’t simply “days off,” but rather, days you’ll use to keep moving, while giving your body a rest to recover and build from the other training sessions.

So, we recommend going through some stretches and other movements that are not too rigorous. The following routines will be helpful for these active recovery days. They hit on the most troublesome areas for many people.

  • Shoulder mobility routine
  • Back stretching routine
  • Hip mobility routine

Look through those routines and pick out a couple of movements from each one. Spend about 20-30 minutes on these movements today to keep your body moving well, so that it can recover from the work you did yesterday.
