4 Things to do, to Ease Muscle Soreness - Noble Heart Hospital

  • 4 years ago
Hello everyone.
Welcome back to another informational video, and in this video, we are going to share 4 things you can do during and after your workout to ease muscle soreness.
While there aren’t any instant solutions, your muscles just need time to heal. There are some strategies you can use to ease soreness and aid recovery. Here’s what you should know.
Stay hydrated during and after your workout.
It might sound obvious, but staying hydrated is an important aspect of muscle recovery. Water keeps the fluids moving through your system, which can help ease inflammation, flush out waste products, and deliver to your muscles the nutrients they need.

Eat Within a Half-Hour After an Intense Workout.
By feeding your muscles the nutrients they need to repair and grow back stronger, you will be able to speed up the recovery process. After exercise or workout eat more protein as protein is important for providing the amino acids needed to rebuild your muscles.

Have a good sleep in the night time.
Sleep is critical for many reasons, but it’s also one of the most important components of exercise recovery. It may not seem like it has an immediate effect on muscle soreness, but it can be useful for sure.

The Day After a Tough Workout, Do Light Exercise.
Sore muscles need to rest, but that doesn’t mean it’s best to kick your feet up and spend the day on the couch. Try to get some gentle movement through activities like restorative yoga; an easy walk, swim, or cycle; or even light resistance training.
