Proven Ways

to

Speed Recovery

By- James Hundson

Get More Sleep

• While the accurate relationship between

sleep and exercise is still unclear, several

studies recommend sleep deprivation and

disorders can have a significant negative

effect on performance and recovery.

• Sleep is also major time for the body to go

through protein synthesis, so make sure to

get enough sleep for stronger muscles and

improved endurance.

Eat protein

• Breakfasts high in protein can give our

muscles the necessary ingredients to start

rebuilding and may reduce food cravings

later on in the day

• Consuming a light, protein-rich snack

before bed allows our bodies to keep

repairing muscles overnight

Hydrate & Rest Muscles

• Enhanced recovery could be just a glass

away. Exercising while dehydrated can

cause larger damage to muscles and

diminish the body’s capability to repair itself.

• Many people will suggest two days between

workouts involving the same muscle group,

there’s no one-size-fits-all solution for

recovery time.

Supplements

• Consult with a doctor before taking any

supplements, scientific research suggests

some anti-inflammatory medications and

herbs can speed muscle recovery.

• However, muscle recovery supplement

like GH Freak can significantly reduce

soreness and inflammation, so it might be

a good idea to use them carefully.
