Protein for Recovery

Protein for Recovery

So, I was wondering how I could reduce my DOMS – Delayed Onset Muscle Soreness.  You know, how on the 2nd day after a big workout or run you are crippled with stiff sore muscles.  Well, if I wasn’t such an idiot, or had just done a little reading, I would have learned that you should ingest certain things to RECOVER from strenuous activity.  Namely, protein. So, right after the morning run two days ago I chugged a protein shake.  And guess what, I wasn’t sore yesterday and am not very sore today at all.  Hooray!  I wish someone would have told me about this sooner.  It would have seriously helped some rough sore periods a few months ago.
