Recovery Basics: Sleep, Stretching and Rest Days
Training makes the demand; recovery is where the progress happens.
Progress comes from training plus recovery, not training alone.
- Sleep is the most effective recovery tool there is - aim for a regular schedule.
- Light mobility on rest days keeps you moving without adding fatigue.
- Plan easy days between hard sessions, especially when mixing padel and HYROX.
- Listen to soreness - a sharp or lasting pain is a reason to rest, not push through.
