What are body aches
After 7 months of training at home, a reduction in the loads, in the frequency of training: the aches are there for this recovery.
First, be aware that body aches after sport are completely normal.
They affect everyone, from the beginner to the great athlete. Following a physical activity, your muscles may have been solicited in a repeated and unusual way and have suffered micro-traumas or muscle micro-lesions.
During the recovery phase, your damaged muscle tissue will regenerate and this will manifest itself in an inflammatory reaction. That's what's going to cause that muscle soreness. However, it is a positive signal sent by the body, proof that you have worked well and that you are progressing!
These aches actually allow the muscles to adapt to the effort.
That said, be careful and respect your body and its rhythm, or risk exposing yourself to injuries: contractures, tendonitis or tears.
How to recover better after your session?
Alas, there is no miracle method to completely avoid aches, however: you can reduce them and better prepare your sessions. We tell you just below!
1/ Warm up well
The warm-up helps to limit injuries: we thus avoid "brutalizing" the body which is still "cold": we therefore warm up its joints, as well as all its muscles before its session
On the other hand, it has not been proven that it prevents aches: the muscle will still present micro-lesions, responsible for aches, if it is unusually stressed, whether hot or cold...
2/ A healthy and tasty snack to fill up on energy
Preparing well for your session, and achieving your goals (performance, weight loss, strength gain, etc.) also involves the plate and quality supplements!
The pre-workout snack should be easy to digest, and made up mostly of protein (for building lean muscle mass) and carbohydrates (for energy).
That's good: our rice cream (link to product sheet) provides 77g of carbohydrates per 100g of product, it is quick to digest, and gluten-free.
Our whey isolate: available in 4 flavors (red fruits, chocolate, vanilla or cookie) contains 99% protein per 100g! Without fats or aspartame.
3/ Quality supplementation to improve performance
Sports goals are not limited to the training session: a healthy lifestyle and quality supplements are also necessary!
To better recover:
BCAAs
Our BCAA is labeled vegan: which makes it possible in particular to find in this formula a high level of amino acids essential to those who do not consume animal proteins: for effective muscle reconstruction, better muscle gain and optimal recovery.
Glutamine
In addition to physical recovery, glutamine is essential for good intestinal health (find our article on the benefits of glutamine for the intestines here )
It is the most common amino acid in the blood and in the muscles. They are useful for building strength and optimizing muscle growth and recovery.
When to consume it? Before training, after and even before bedtime, you can spread the intake several times over the day. Find all its information on the product sheet: hereFor a pre-training boost:
