I Am... On Supercompensation

About this episode

In this episode Jonny and Sparks look at the sports science theory of supercompensation. This theory shows how the physical body – through rest and recovery – can adapt positively to stress induced by training sessions. This conversation explores how “supercompensation” (first put forth by Russian scientist Nikolai N. Yakovlev in 1949–1959) might provide an interesting model for how we relate to our mental and emotional challenges too. The episode offers new understandings for stress and resilience that may help us unlock more of who we are and what is possible in life. We hope you enjoy the chat!
