Workout Recovery Protocol
Post workout recovery protocol:
The truth is you should not be sore after every workout, you should not be sore after most of your workouts. That is a bad sign…
In my opinion the most important part of your training regimen, yet undervalued by so many…
When I see posts of how sore people are from their workouts, my mind instantly says “they aren’t using recovery protocol”
There isn’t a person on this page and doubtful many in the world who train harder than I do.
Yet I am hardly ever sore, or lethargic in the gym or on the track during each grueling session…
From my 50-60 set balls to the wall lifting sessions, the fact that I squat heavy 3x a week, or my late night sprint until you die conditioning workouts, not to mention the 16-18 hour workdays, sleeping 3-4 hours a night, I above anyone should be a barely walking cripple with zero energy.
However since I started implementing a serious and rigid post workout recovery protocol about 3 years ago, I am stronger, faster, leaner, can trajn harder and longer than when I was 22 which was what I used to believe was prime of my athletic performance life…
My post workout recovery protocol:
• After every lifting or conditioning session I take one scoop of the AML Post workout to increase my mTor, maximize protein synthesis, support elevated metabolic function and of course muscle repair.

• I foam roll whatever muscle group I trained immediately post workout.
• After intense leg days (3 per week) and conditioning sessions I immediately jump in your cold whirlpool for 12 minutes, then the hot tub for the same, then back into the cold tub one more time.
• Each night before bed I foam roll my entire body one more time for 10 minutes.
• In addition I use a lacrosse ball on my chest and delts to breakup muscle adhesions, relieve muscle soreness before it starts and myofascia release.
• Once a week when not traveling I hit the cryotherapy center where you get in a chamber that is -185 degrees Celsius for 4 minutes. Google it rather than ask me what it does for you. Seek knowledge 👊
• Once a month I see a deep tissue specialist such as Jimmy Bluff. He spends a few hours using the bluff technique opening up areas of blocked muscle tissue. One two hour session can add just under half an inch to your arms, an inch to your chest. No bullshit. We documented.
• The truth is you should not be sore after every workout. That is a very bad sign. In addition what good is all this training if 2-3 days later your legs are still sore and fatigued? You need to promote faster recovery so you can train muscle groups more often, harder and feel better 😊
Hope this helped…
