Recovery Deficit Correction

Meaning

Recovery Deficit Correction is the clinical process of identifying and systematically eliminating the cumulative gap between an individual’s physiological recovery needs and the actual recovery resources they allocate, which often manifests as chronic fatigue or hormonal burnout. This deficit represents an allostatic load that exceeds the body’s capacity for repair and adaptation. The correction involves precise, data-driven interventions to restore the balance between catabolic and anabolic processes, ensuring the integrity of the Hypothalamic-Pituitary-Adrenal (HPA) axis and peripheral tissues. It is a fundamental step toward achieving sustained high-level performance.
