3.3.2 Physical recovery techniques – active recovery
“Active recovery” (low intensity exercise) is an integral component of an athlete’s recovery. It usually involves walking, jogging, cycling or swimming at a low intensity. Anecdotal evidence suggests that active recovery reduces post-exercise muscle soreness and Delayed Onset Muscle Soreness (DOMS).
Coaches should try to include time for “recovery” immediately after a game, staying at the venue rather than getting onto the team bus straight away.
Players may be able to walk and undertake some static stretching on court, although if there is another game scheduled the coach may need to find another venue.
During this “active recovery” period, players should also be encouraged to hydrate and also to consume some carbohydrate rich food.
