I’d say so, I nearly always do a walk the day after my hard efforts. I’m also mindful that time on the bike is non impact. So I try to ensure I’m getting those walks in. I also try to do them off road. I’m a great believer that uneven terrain helps work all the smaller muscles , ligaments and tendons that cycling just doesn’t hit. Plus good for the bones. I’m mid 50s now and remained injury free my entire life. So must be doing something right.
