Recovery Bio-Mechanics

Meaning

Recovery Bio-Mechanics is the specialized study of the physiological and mechanical processes that govern the body’s structural and energetic restoration following physical exertion or stress, viewed through the lens of hormonal regulation. This discipline examines how tissue repair, muscle protein synthesis, and energy substrate replenishment are influenced by the balance of catabolic hormones like cortisol and anabolic hormones such as testosterone and growth hormone. Optimizing these bio-mechanics is crucial for preventing overtraining, maximizing performance gains, and sustaining long-term musculoskeletal health.
