The site navigation utilizes arrow, enter, escape, and space bar key commands. Left and right arrows move across top level links and expand / close menus in sub levels. Up and Down arrows will open main level menus and toggle through sub tier links. Enter and space open menus and escape closes them as well. Tab will move on to the next part of the site rather than go through menu items.

Rest, Sleep and Recovery

Post-Exercise Recovery and Regeneration or PERR is just as important as proper nutrition, injury prevention, and an athlete’s training regimen. Sleep is the basis of PERR.  Check out the information from our friends to the north at the Canadian Sports Institute on sleep and recovery for long term athlete development.
