Shane Long's rules to recovery

Recovery after 90-minutes is an important part of modern day football.

With teams often playing twice a week, effective rest and recuperation can be the difference between carrying your form into the next game and burning out.

But just because you’re not a professional footballer, it doesn’t mean your post-match rituals should be any different.

In this video, Hull City and Republic of Ireland forward Shane Long talks us through his recovery routine and the reasons behind each component.
