BASIC THEORY RELATED TO THE CONCEPT OF FATIGUE AND RECOVERY

Marathon, 2016, vol. 8, issue 1, 24-30

Abstract: As the quote says, it is not how hard you train, but how well you recover, this is a proofed truth. A not properly recover means to miss the experience of strength, power, or endurance adaptations why somebody is in the sport for. Without adequate recovery the musculo-skeletal system, nervous system, and immune system become compromised, which bring a greater risk for injury, illness, weakness or a poor attitude. The body's hormonal response to the deterioration of these systems is often a state of sympathetic arousal – the fight or flight response—which floods the body with high levels of catabolic hormones like cortisol. None of these things are good for performance, so thei is a reason to take a closer look to what recovery means.
