POST-EXERCISE RECOVERY PROGRAMME: You have probably developed your own personal warm-up routine before you start a race or tackle a serious gym session. Unfortunately, most people don’t have a suitable post-exercise recovery plan, which would allow them to train far more effectively and perform better overall. When you consider that a muscle needs 24 to 48 hours to repair and rebuild, post-exercise recovery takes on a new importance. Working your muscles too soon can lead to tissue breakdown. What can you do to optimise your post-workout recovery routine? The first step in your Post-Exercise Recovery Plan is to EAT and DRINK. Most professionals agree that the 4:1, carbohydrate to protein ratio is most effective 30 minutes after exercising, restoring glycogen to the body. Hydrate your body to replace the liquid you have lost to sweat. Secondly, MASSAGE your muscles with MYO2 for a few minutes, allowing the refreshing gel, which contains powerful natural ingredients Arnica montana and Horse chestnut, to be fully absorbed. This timeous MYO2 massage will increase blood flow (oxygen) to the muscles, also encouraging the spread of nutrients and the transportation of waste from the tissue, and will make a huge impact in the speed at which your muscles recover.
