Top Ways To Maximize Your Muscle Recovery & Increase Gains

Hot and Cold Shower

Waterfall-Meditation

Sometimes a hot shower after a good training session will help relax your muscles and promote muscle recovery. Gradually turning that dial from hot to cold will also give you benefits. Ending off a shower with cold water will stimulate the nerves and strengthen the nervous system, which will in turn promote recovery. Stretching during your hot shower can also help with recovery.
