In recent years recovery has become a sports and fitness buzzword.
Anyone who works out or competes at any level is bombarded with the
latest recovery products and services: from drinks and shakes to
compression sleeves, foam rollers, electrical muscle stimulators,
and sleep trackers. In Good to Go, acclaimed FiveThirtyEight
science writer Christie Aschwanden takes readers on an entertaining
and enlightening tour through this strange world. She investigates
whether drinking Gatorade or beer after training helps or hinders
performance; she examines the latest trends among athletes, from
NFL star Tom Brady's infrared pajamas to gymnast Simone Biles'
pneumatic compression boots to swimmer Michael Phelps's "cupping"
ritual; and she tests some of the most controversial methods
herself, including cryochambers, float tanks, and infrared saunas.
At a time when the latest recovery products and services promise so
much, Good to Go seeks answers to the fundamental question: Do any
of them actually help the body recover and achieve peak
performance?
