Raffiki,
For recovery, the best program is Active Recovery, a program that can be found in machines like Compex and Globus. It is by design very different from strength and explosivity programs: much lower frequency, almost a massage that cycles between 2 Hz and 10 Hz approximately. Most people who do strength (and explosivity) training on the above machines at the usual high frequencies, then go through Active Recovery and their muscles are in much better shape the day after.
Charlie,
Since we are talking recovery, the feedback I got so far is that CNS recovery is in general much shorter than muscular recovery. Hours for CNS recovery vs days for muscular recovery.
