The Recovery Protocol
Sleep, stretching, screens, and touch - the unglamorous half of training where the adaptation actually happens.
Priya NairRecovery instructorAll levels(4 reviews)

Training breaks you down; recovery builds you back stronger. The Recovery Protocol treats the hours away from the gym as the other half of the program - sleep architecture, a stretch routine measured in minutes, a screen-free hour that rewrites bedtime, and an honest look at what touch-based recovery is actually for.
Nothing in this course requires equipment, supplements, or a cold plunge. It requires ten minutes and a door you can close.
What you'll learn
- Build a ten-minute evening stretch routine you'll actually repeat
- Protect the last hour before bed from the screen that's stealing your sleep
- Understand what massage and self-massage can and can't do
- Schedule recovery like a session, not an afterthought

- Oliver H.
I bought this expecting a stretching video and got a genuine argument for treating recovery as part of the programme. My sleep is the best it has been in years.
- Nadia C.
The screen-free hour is the only sleep advice that has ever stuck for me, mostly because Priya explains why rather than just instructing.
- Greg T.
Solid and honest, particularly about what self-massage can and cannot do. The ten-minute stretch is now part of my evening.
- Mei Z.
Refreshingly sceptical. She spends as much time telling you what does not work as what does, which made me trust the rest.
