Active recovery means:

  1. Helping your body recover from training through a lower intensity activity.
  2. Planning to sleep more.
  3. Sleeping in a position more conducive to recovery.
  4. Training your hardest when you are most tired.
Explanation

Answer: A - Active recovery means helping your body recover from training through a lower intensity activity. Hard training efforts can leave the body feeling tired and muscles stiff. Active recovery can be a good means of helping the body recover by reducing muscle soreness and assisting in the dispersion of waste products within the muscles. Activities such as walking, gentle spinning/cycling, or swimming might be ideal active recovery from indoor cycling classes, and instructors can build in ‘active recovery’ sessions that focus on form and technique while working at a lower effort.
