摘要:AbstractTraining in sports is a practical activity that requires a certain level of effort. Energy has various organi sources in accordance with the activities performed. Under current conditions, both the training and competitions pose significant demands. The nutritional resources that release energy are used up during effort. One of the priorities in training is to ensure the complete recovery of the tired body. Recovery is a condition for success in sports achievements. Some means of recovery are widely known and are frequently used by athletes. Other means are newer, more refined and less used, but they may prove to be necessary and useful in order to speed up recovery. Recovery targets anatomical and physiological mechanisms and it is managed by the neurological and endocrine systems. Means for recovery, ordered by specificity, are managed by physicians while non-specific means are managed by coaches. Most athletes prefer traditional means for recovery.
