Restwise
Recovery from your hard work is essential to maximize your gains, but judging how much recovery you need, and when you need it is tough. Over time, you can become smarter in understanding how you respond to training load, but why not accelerate your learning and avoid some of the guesswork. We are partnered with RestWise as we love the tool to monitor our athletes readiness to train, state of recovery, and ability to teach us how they respond in different training loads.
By tracking a combination of subjective and objective data points daily, the learning algorithm produces a ‘recovery score’ which acts as a great ‘conversation starter’ as to your readiness to train, or if you are responding as anticipated to your training load. Tiredness and fatigue is a normal part of training, but understanding how and when it affects you facilitates smart decisions.
Keeping an eye on you! We believe in RestWise so much, that we keep an eye on all our purplepatch athletes. In 2012, if you are on any purplepatch coaching or training plan, we highly encourage you to support your training with RestWise. We will be tracking every athlete daily, and dropping you notes, reminders and education if and when we see fatigue, dehydration, sickness or suppressed recovery. It is ‘big brother’ overseeing your training from afar.
What you have to do: It might be a hassle, but about 3-4 minutes every morning enables you to maintain consistent and accurate recovery information. Your chart is automatically tracked, and we can review and track it on a daily basis.
Power of monitoring: This tool provides a great method for us to keep an eye, and give you help in deciding to step back and recover if we think you are tired or sick, or push on through fatigue if you are responding as expected. With RestWise, you know we are watching, and we are ready to help!
