As we move closer to the things we all train for be it races or personal goals it’s also time to take control of your personal ‘stress-recovery’ balance to avoid illness and start the build in fighting form 💥🚀
However rest and recovery are crucial elements of progressive overload to ensure adequate time for adaptation and to avoid injury and illness.
Excessive training load combined with inadequate recovery can lead to a condition now termed ‘Unexplained Under-Performance Syndrome (UUPS)
Formally, UUPS was termed over-training syndrome, but it’s now recognised that there are multiple stressors that can lead to maladaptation and a sustained reduction in performance, not solely ‘over-training’.
These additional stressors become more obvious as we up the training and aim for your personal goals
Without changing training volume with the assistants of a coach, the increased stress associated with reduced/poor quality sleep/rest, poor quality nutrition and hydration; increased training load and increased external stress/anxiety can lead to ‘under-recovery’, maladaptation, and subsequent illness and fatigue
At we work with you to take control of your personal stress-recovery and reduce the risk of injury/fatigue and build the best balance between the real world and training ..
