The easiest way to create a recovery plan you can stick to is to add recovery to activities that you already do.

For instance, if you have practice, plan to do a short on-demand Yoga Recovery class right afterwards. This will allow you to integrate recovery into your current training schedule in a way that isn’t random and doesn’t feel overwhelming.

Here are some examples!

After Practice: Yoga Cool-Down
This quick lower body sequence will have you feeling stretched, relaxed, and focused after practice or a game.

After SAC: Yoga Cool-Down
Down-regulate the breath, mobilize the cervical spine and shoulders, and stretch the calves, hamstrings, and hips.

Before a Game: Breathwork
Calm performance anxiety, ease nerves or over excitement, focus the mind, and enhance physical capacity.

After a Game: Breathwork
This practice is great right after a workout or game to downshift your breathing from high intensity to a calm state.
