There is training, and there is recovery. Both are crucial, and both influence weightlifting performance. But do we put the same effort into both? Should we be addressing recovery as seriously as we train? In this interview with Dr. Shona Halson, we discuss the scientific evidence and practical tips on all things recovery.
Shona is a professor at the Australian Catholic University and the Deputy Director of the SPRINT Research Centre (Brisbane, Australia). Prior to this, Shona was the Head Recovery Physiologist at the Australian Institute of Sport for over 15 years and led the recovery team at three Olympic campaigns with the Australian Olympic Committee. Her research focuses on sleep, recovery, and fatigue. She has published over 170 peer-reviewed articles and multiple book chapters.
