The N.E.S.T

Carthage Athletics takes pride in fostering an environment where our student-athletes can excel both on and off the field. With this commitment in mind, we are excited to showcase our latest addition to the realm of athlete care and support: the N.E.S.T. Recovery Room. Built on the principles of Nutrition, Exercise, Treatment, and Science, the N.E.S.T. is poised to revolutionize the recovery journey for our student-athletes.

Recovery lies at the heart of athletic performance, and the N.E.S.T. has been thoughtfully designed to become a pivotal element in our student-athletes routines. We understand that peak performance demands adequate recuperation, and the N.E.S.T. is geared towards providing our Firebirds with the tools they need to recover effectively, ensuring their longevity in their respective sports.

Within the N.E.S.T., student-athletes will find an array of cutting-edge amenities meticulously selected to enhance their recovery experience. The room is outfitted with recovery chairs that offer comfort and support, while massage guns cater to targeted muscle relief. Our leg recovery systems, a testament to innovation, aid in revitalizing tired limbs after strenuous efforts on the field. Furthermore, we recognize the role of nutrition in replenishing the body post-activity. As such, the N.E.S.T. is stocked with an assortment of nutritional items to fuel our student-athletes and facilitate their recovery process.

Since its establishment in Spring 2022, the N.E.S.T. Recovery Room has significantly impacted our athletes' well-being. Initially finding its home in a repurposed classroom, it has undergone meticulous renovations throughout Summer 2022, intending to provide a state-of-the-art facility that meets the highest standards of athlete care. These renovations are expected to be completed in time for the return of our student-athletes to campus this fall. The excitement among student-athletes and faculty is palpable as the N.E.S.T. promises to redefine how we approach recovery and performance enhancement.

Carthage Athletics is committed to nurturing not only the physical prowess of our student-athletes but also their holistic well-being. The N.E.S.T. Recovery Room is a testament to this commitment, offering a haven where athletes can rejuvenate, recover, and emerge stronger than ever. As Carthage Athletics strives for excellence in all aspects of collegiate athletics, the N.E.S.T. represents a beacon of progress and care for our esteemed Firebirds.
