Injuries & Rehabilitation Editorial Review
"Good to Go: What the Athlete in All of Us Can Learn from the Strange Science of Recovery" is a well-researched book that explores the various tools and methods athletes use for recovery. The author, Aschwanden, shares her personal experiences as a cyclist, runner, and competitive skier, as well as interviews with a range of athletes. She delves into topics such as the effectiveness of Gatorade and NormaTec boots. One of the strengths of the book is its examination of the role of marketing in influencing athletes' beliefs about recovery tools. Aschwanden emphasizes the importance of scientific validity and highlights that not all studies are reliable. She provides a good balance of insights from international coaches and scientists. While the book is dense, it gives a realistic view of athlete recovery and offers valuable information for athletes of all levels. Readers appreciate the mix of anecdotes, stories, and factual information, which keeps them engaged and helps them make informed decisions about their own recovery methods. However, some readers found certain chapters repetitive and felt that the book could have been more concise. Additionally, one reader found the initial chapter on beer as a recovery drink to be boring. They also felt that the author's focus on celebrities and elites was not helpful for the average athlete. Overall, "Good to Go" is recommended for athletes looking to gain a better understanding of recovery methods and cut through the overwhelming amount of information on the subject.
