The Importance of Rest and Recovery
Post AHM/SBR,
many runners who attempted the run without much mileage will probably experience some form of mobility difficulty.
This is commonly known as DOMS,
Delayed Onset Muscles Soreness.
This happens when you push your body above a certain threshold,
and can happen anytime between immediate to 78hrs after your workout.
Its really not harmful,
cause its your body's way of telling you that you need rest.
Remember!!
Rest is as important as your workout,
simply because the only time you gain from your workout,
is when you are resting yourself from the workout!
We will elaborate this with a fitness curve:
As the body is placed under stress from training, fatigue takes place.
With sufficient rest, the recovery process will come into effect and will translate into a higher fitness level. This is represented by the acquired resting stage.
Remember: Improvements to Fitness do not take place during training. It occurs during the rest and recovery process of training.If you do not give yourself sufficient rest, you will not experience the super-compensation process where your fitness level is raised!
