Ahhh… Undoubtedly, you know the amazing feeling that comes from an incredible workout. You feel strong. Energized. Mighty. Well… mighty sore, that is! But hold the phone. There are things you can do to cut down on that post-workout pain. Here are three excellent ways to prevent soreness after you exercise.
3 Exercise Soreness Remedies You Can’t Live Without
Already in the know, amateur and professional athletes realize there are certain post-exercise recovery options they just can’t live without. Try these after your next gym session. You’ll see the difference in sore muscles right away.
Hydrate
One fantastic way to prevent soreness and muscle fatigue is to hydrate well. Many times, you remember to hydrate going into your workout session. Don’t fail to hydrate during and after your session, also. Between the perspiration and the build-up of lactic acid, your body needs to replenish its water loss to work correctly. Great hydration options are not only limited to water. Try drinks containing electrolytes, an important carb/protein blend, or juices like tart cherry or Mangosteen to help reduce inflammation.
Soak
Next, utilize your spa or swim spa’s hydrotherapy options. There’s nothing better than a post-workout soak after you’ve cooled down from exercise. If you’ve been to the gym, you’ve probably had time to shower, relax, and drive home. By then you’ll be ready to slip into your hot tub or Endless Pools® Fitness System. Focus the hydromassage or recovery cove jets on the muscle areas that you know are going to bother you in the morning. You’ll feel your tense muscles relax as warm water therapy starts doing the repair it is designed to accomplish.
Bathe
Finally, a sauna bath is just what the doctor ordered. Sauna bathing also helps reduce inflammation from exercise. It will help repair micro-tears in muscles, purge your body of toxins, and do an overhaul on your mind and spirit. You’ll wake up the next morning feeling refreshed, rejuvenated, and ready to conquer whatever the day brings your way.
