Subject: RE: How long is enough recovery? audiojan - 2012-10-25 6:51 AM Almost impossible to give a straight answer... it all depends on you, your athletic background and ability to recover. For some, HIM is not that tough on the body and they can go out and race again next weekend, for others, HIM is really tough and would require 4-6 weeks of recovery... In general, the more athletic background and years of training, the shorter the required recovery. To be safe, I would plan something like 4-6 weeks out from you IM, longer if at all possible. x2. For my IM in 2013 I will be using Fitzgerald's 24 week plan. He calls for a HIM in week 20. For some that would be a problem, for others it would be just right. |
