Just crossed the finish line or finally feeling 100% after an injury? Awesome, you're at a crucial juncture. That's where my Recovery/Maintenance Plan comes into play.

🔬 The Science: Post-race or post-injury, your body is in a state of heightened stress and inflammation. The Recovery/Maintenance Plan is designed to leverage the latest exercise physiology research to promote optimal recovery and maintain your fitness levels.

🔄 Flexibility: Not feeling the post-race recovery vibe? No problem. The plan is modular. Simply clone Week Three into Weeks One and Two, and you have a maintenance-only regimen. It's like having two plans in one!

📈 Long-Term Gains: This isn't just about the here and now. This plan sets the stage for your next training cycle, ensuring you're recovered and primed for your next big challenge.

So whether you're basking in the glory of a race well-run or celebrating a return to form post-injury, this plan is your next step. It's your roadmap to staying fit while giving your body the recovery it scientifically needs.

Ready to make the smart move? Dive into the Recovery/Maintenance Plan now.

I have been racing, studying and coaching endurance sports for my entire adult life. For me, endurance training isn't an afterthought or a chore, it's a way of life.

Early mornings, blisters, afternoon naps, getting excited about the latest Garmin release, that's who I am.
