Whether you're a student-athlete pushing through double-headers, a weekend warrior chasing PRs, or a pro grinding through a long season, one thing holds true: recovery makes performance possible. At The Training Room, Dr. Maring doesn't just treat injuries—he helps athletes recover to help prevent injury in the first place. Here’s an inside look at his personal recovery checklist and how to apply it to your own training.


Why Recovery Isn’t Optional


Recovery isn’t just about resting sore muscles—it’s about optimizing your nervous system, joints, muscles, and mind to perform better tomorrow than you did today. When you recover with intention, you:


  • Prevent overuse injuries

  • Reduce fatigue and burnout

  • Improve long-term performance

  • Bounce back quicker from tough workouts or games


That’s why Dr. Maring’s approach blends hands-on treatment, targeted rehab, and smart lifestyle practices—built from experience working with athletes at every level.


Dr. Maring’s Recovery Checklist


1. Active Recovery > Full Rest

A walk, mobility flow, or light resistance workout the day after intense activity promotes circulation and healing. Movement is medicine—just choose the right dose.


2. Hydration + Fueling = Non-Negotiable

Recovery starts at the cellular level. Prioritize:

  • Hydration with electrolytes

  • High quality protein within 30–60 min of training

  • Whole foods to support tissue repair


3. Weekly Mobility Work

Mobility work focused on your specific limitations (hips, thoracic spine, ankles, etc.) helps keep joints healthy and movement patterns smooth.


4. Regular Manual Therapy

Cupping, dry needling, and soft tissue work can release restrictions, improve blood flow, and enhance muscle function—especially during high-load phases.


5. Strengthen Weak Links

Target known problem areas with focused rehab. At TTR, we use VALD DynaMo testing to identify strength imbalances, so athletes can train smarter—not just harder.


6. Prioritize Sleep

Your body repairs itself most efficiently during deep sleep. Aim for 7–9 hours nightly. Try a wind-down routine to get consistent, quality sleep.


7. Stay Ahead of Pain

Pain is information—not something to ignore. If something feels off, don’t wait. A quick movement screen or adjustment could save you weeks of recovery down the line.


Recovery Is a Skill—Master It Like the Pros


Dr. Maring has worked with elite athletes—from athletes in the NFL to MLS —and one thing they all understand is this: consistency in recovery is what separates good from great. At The Training Room, we teach you how to build those habits, with the same tools and techniques used at the professional level.
