About this listen
Recovery isn’t the same as rest—and it deserves its own place in cheer training.
In this episode of The Cheer Athlete Podcast, we break down what recovery actually is, what it isn’t, and why skipping recovery increases the risk of overuse injuries. You’ll learn how gentle movement, breathing, hydration, and nervous system regulation help cheerleaders feel better, train better, and stay on the mat longer.
This episode is especially helpful for cheer parents and coaches who want to know when soreness is normal, when it’s not, and how recovery prepares the body for the next practice—not just the end of today’s workout.
