Recovery Please

There has been some discussion lately about the necessity of recovery during training. So how much and what recovery do we need? How do we fit in all our training, cross-training, weights, etc. and still have time for recovery? What can we do to recover faster? How much recovery is needed prior to taper? How do you balance training hard and training and recovery? It sucks getting old. I'm sore as hell. :toohurt:

    What can we do to recover faster? -Take a really, really cold shower directly after practice (I guess the best thing to do is to bring a tub of ice cold water, but in lack of such a cold shower is OK) I guess you don't live anywhere near the US/Canada border, speaking as you, so lackadaisically, about "cold" water. The ONLY thing cold water is good for, is to speed up the process of cooling beer.:drink:
