Recovery

Recovery is the most important factor in health and fitness. If your body isn’t fully recovered, your next work out would not be as great as you would expect it to be. Letting your body recuperate, it allows the body to grow and achieve goals that you would want it to. To help your body recover, you need to take in proper nutrition because if your body isn’t getting enough nutrients its gets difficult for it to recover itself therefore nutrition is very important.  Also, supplements such as glutamine help recover the body. Glutamine produces amino acids that help your body rebuild broken down muscle tissues. It occurs naturally in plants and animals but it’s difficult to consume full serving naturally because of the quantity that occurs in natural sources. Therefore supplement stores offer glutamine in powder form which could be taken more easily. In result your body receives enough glutamine to recover faster. Stretching after work out is very important to the recovery aspect of health and fitness. What it does is that once the body is stretched, flow of blood runs through your muscles and that helps it recover. Also cardio after work out, it makes the blood rush through your body and recover. It is very similar to stretching after work out. I recommend cardio before stretching if you want to get most out of it. It also makes your body relax. Lastly 6 to 8 hours of sleep is needed every night in order for your body to recuperate. Your body could only recover once you put it to rest. You could eat properly, take supplements, stretch, and do cardio but your body will only recover and grow once you have put it to rest. Therefore sleep is most essential part of recovery. SLEEP=REVOVERY.
