Muscle soreness, when not addressed properly with the correct nutrition protocol can wreak havoc on your performance and muscle repair gains. This is something we can all relate to. We all have the ability to train past our ability to recover. However, wouldn't it be nice if we could reverse this and become more 'recovery efficient?'
In this video I'll run through how using polyphenols has been shown to increase athletic performance whilst reducing muscle soreness, along with promoting faster recovery time after exercise - allowing for greater training adaptations to take place.
* Polyphenols contain numerous antioxidants that help to increase blood and oxygen supply, whilst reducing inflammation and speeding up the healing process. They also protect our bodies against numerous diseases. Discover in this video (and in the articles below) how polyphenols can improve your performance!
Quoting one study: "A larger body of evidence suggests that supplementation with 1000 mg polyphenols per day for 3 or more days prior to and following exercise will enhance recovery following muscle damage via antioxidant and anti-inflammatory mechanisms".
