dc.description.abstract Recovery is a crucial yet often overlooked component of performance optimization in esports. Unlike traditional athletes, esports athletes face unique recovery demands due to prolonged screen exposure, sedentary behavior, and intense cognitive engagement. This chapter explores evidence-based strategies that support physical and mental recovery, including nutrient timing, anti-inflammatory meal plans, active mobility exercises, and sleep-enhancing technologies. Practical insights from professional teams such as Team Liquid, Astralis, and Cloud9 are presented alongside examples from amateur players. The role of omega-3 fatty acids, hydration, stretching, and digital tools like Oura Ring and Headspace is discussed to provide a holistic framework for sustainable performance and recovery in competitive gaming. © 2025 The Editor(s) (if applicable) and The Author(s), under exclusive license to Springer Nature Switzerland AG. en_US
