When we exercise in a triathlon training plan we apply stress to the body breaking it down a little bit. On completion we have a shower, food and if we're lucky a massage. During this post-exercise time our bodies recover - build back up and adapt to the stress that was imposed so we get stronger. This is called the SAID principle - specific adaptation to imposed demand - and is one of the most important considerations to think about when exercising.
