MY TIPS on Post-Workout Strategies, Soreness, and Lactic Acid Build-Up
MY TIPS on Post-Workout strategies, Soreness and Lactic Acid Build Up~
#1 Water- Lactic Acid build up in the Joints/ Muscle tissue create soreness.
#2 Sugar/ Glucose- Instantly feeds muscles post workout for recovery and repair, and that means growth!
#3- Oils- Flax and Fish oils are graet as supplements, you can measure how much you’re taking and they are also good for your brain and digestive tract, which plays into fighting the belly bulge! But more than that they are anti-oxidants and working out creates oxidation(think rust) in our cells and system, so Anti-oxidants help fight that!
#4- Protein- Protein taken within 1 hour of lifting helps bulk you and add muscle mass. Nuf Said.
<Thanks for the information. I’m somewhat trying to watch my sugar. Do you know of an alternate for sugar/glucose?>
Sure! Like I said, everyone ends up getting sugars during the day at some point, and if you are going to comsume some, why not take them in when they are going to be used up right away as muscle tissue repair, right? So, Most people will take a drink that contains Maltodextrin which is a form of glucose like, Gatorade, Powerade, or TwinLab’s UltraFuel. You’ll see plenty of articles on these types of supplements. But, do you really have to take something processed? No, definitely not. But what you might want to do then is take a regular food source that contains Maltodextrin and is a fast absorbing carb, that your blood will convert to use in muscle tissue repair, like Potatoes, Rice, Corn, Sweet Potatoes (yum) think starchy. I love “Arroz con Leche” which is rice pudding with cinnamon (also VERY good for your sugars and diabetics!), so that might be something I choose to eat and save it for post workout.
If you’re going to battle , it’s great to be armed right! Knowledge is POWER!
Feel free to message me anytime, I look forward to seeing your progress!
Ohh , I forgot . You can always take an anti-inflammatory like Ibuprofen, or use Hot and cold ice packs on the area too! And don’t forget to warm-up , coodown, and stretch! A lot of guys don’t feel that it’s necessary and then BAM soreness.
(a few things from the original message were tweaked and or added a few words, to cover bases. I know there are many good tips out there, so go Blog too!)

i think i have read somewhere that a cup of coffee is also a good thing

You know, I have heard that, but I thinkit is more falacy than non-fiction. What you want to do is get oxygen into your muscles, so even being aerobic is better than coffee. This, regarding the lactic acid specifically, as opposed to torn muscle tissue soreness.
Thanks for rading my blog!
