Hi All,
I'm having a problem with recovery and wondered if there's any way in which I can assist in recovery time.
I ride three times a week, one 100-120k road ride (flat) or 80k MTB (Sat), then two road rides Tues (50k) and Thurs (50-75k) (both hill climbs).
I've noticed recently the signs of poor recovery, low HR and tense legs.
My diet is not specialised for exercise, although healthy.
I was wondering if I should do a recovery ride on Sun after my big ride, or be eating more selectively. Also, has anyone used one of those electric pulse recovery tools - do they work?
Thanks in advance for any help.
