Get Started With Muscle Activation Techniques® To Keep Your Muscles Strong & Functioning Well: http://vagaro.com/muscleactivationschaumburg/services

Do you know the difference between rest and active recovery?

While rest is often what is thought to be needed to help your body recover and feel better, that may not always be the case.

In fact, there are many situations where active recovery is more effective than rest at getting your body back to feeling 100%.

But what exactly is active recovery, how is it different from rest, and when should you aim to use one versus the other?

On this week’s episode of the Exercise Is Health® podcast, this is exactly what we are diving into.

Not only do we lay out what you need to know about both rest and active recovery, but we give you guidelines to follow to know which you should be doing.

If you have ever wondered if you should focus more on taking days completely off versus getting some light activity in to help you recover from your workouts, listen up!

This discussion has all the information you need.

Check out all the details in this week’s episode!
