Holistic Health Radio

In this podcast we discuss:

• How high intensity exercise can't simply be cancelled out by eating more in recovery
• Accepting that there are no short cuts in recovery
• Making the big changes that will propel your recovery instead of focusing on tiny little ones
• Searching for the answers you want instead of accepting the truth about what you need to change to recover
• The problem with only wanting to gain weight as muscle mass in recovery
• Sneaky compensation such as reducing your training intensity or volume but then increasing walking
