Recovery

What are people's views on recovery techniques?

For instance I'm going to start using Epsom salts now, walking on off days to keep active but I've wondered about things like contrast showers etc

Recovery is just that recovery. You need to make sure anything you do is very light in nature and doesn't overly stress your CNS.

Fine, I did want to run an experiment with the ES and use them everyday for a couple of weeks to re-saturate my body with the magnesium.
