Recovery article from Outside Mag. (Read 72 times)

     Here is an interesting article about recovery. It Makes sense. But also makes me rethink some strategies, being over 40 and trying to recover.

    Interested to hear other peoples thoughts.

      I read that, very interesting article! I was surprised about the compression items....makes sense though! 

       

      The thing I have been really trying to stick to is instantly post run getting down a recovery bar. Not sure if the bar is instant into the system as the 4-to-1 drink option but I still see a lot of benefits from it. 

       

      Great post Ron!

        Thanks Jason

        Make sense. If you make gains because of adaptations that primarily come from your body adapting from (stress) workouts, then some techniques are limiting that stress which in turn would cause a limited need for adaptaion. Where as taking in nutrition in a timely manner would just speed up you bodies natural adaptation. I just wonder if the nutrition should be low in antioxidants?
