What should a recovery practice consist of?
Expert answers about recovery from Kim Brackin, Eddie Reese ala Carson Foster, Sergio Lopez, Josh Watson, and Darian Townsend.
One theme that is brought up a few times is how a recovery practice in swimming is also a mental recovery. Sergio Lopez incorporates meditation into his recovery swim practices. Kim Brackin really believes active recovery practices should foster team relationships. Josh Watson is always thoughtful in his answers talking about what recovery practices were like in his heyday while also offering his two cents on what he would expect as swimmer today. Carson Foster gives you two Eddie Reese recovery sets and Darian Townsend provides perspective as a club coach.
