The Best Recovery Techniques After a Tough Workout

 There are two main things to help speed up recovery - those are stretching and proper hydration. Stretching helps muscles recover faster by improving blood flow. Proper hydration allows the body to maintain homeostasis properly and with less effort.


Stretching can be done with no tools and only takes a couple of minutes after a workout. However, there can be various tools used if desired, such as foam rolls to stretch one's back, a massage gun, and yoga mats for additional cushioning.



A massage gun can help provide better pressure on hard to reach areas for any fitness patrons willing to spend the extra money for it. It can provide rapid muscle relief and help with lactic acid in the muscles to quicken the recovery process. A common therapeutic massage gun is called Theragun.
