Recovery is important, as this is when the muscle grows after you create micro-tears in the fiber during your workout. A good recovery means that your muscles are well rested. Here are some must have tools to relieve any pains that you may have after exercising, and returning to your place at Tengah Gardens Residences.
Heat and cold
Heat therapy helps with muscle relaxation, better mental health and improves your blood circulation. You could switch between cold and heat therapy for better circulation, ice baths or cold water immersion helps in reducing muscle pains and inflammation after a tough workout or game.
Balls
A firm ball can aid in releasing tight spots in the upper body or legs by applying steady and slow pressure to help in circulation and prepares your muscles for movement. To make it effective, keep it controlled by breathing, rolling it slowly, and stopping before the hurt starts to sink in.
Compression Support
There are many compression supports to choose from, including ankle, wrist and knee sleeves. Using compression support helps in lessening swelling of muscles, better blood circulation and enhancement of the proprioception, the ability to aid the body in detecting the position of joints precisely to know which part of your body needs relief.
Foam Roller
Self myofascial release and foam rolling have been associated with less muscle soreness and better flexibility when you do them after exercising. This can help in muscle recovery and be especially useful for trainers who train daily.
Recovery Patch
The patches provide a slow delivery of ingredients lasting for 12 hours to relieve any pain you feel after exercises. It’s recommended for individuals who train and workout early morning before doing their activities for the day, or for those who go at night. These are best used for discomforts on the knee, fatigue on the lower back and neck stiffness.
