ZMA before bed is the best thing that ever happened to me. glutamine after an extra tough workout is good too, but always ZMA
Um, drink water? Maybe I'm too young or in too good of shape to understand this thread. I'm pretty tired, but I'm not completely broken off or anything after training.
I'd like to hear any and all ideas on how other grapplers maximize recovery after evening BJJ training sessions. I'm just starting training at age 40, so optimal recovery may be the difference maker being able to stick with it.
Right now I am training 3 times a week, and it goes something like this:
7:00 - 8:30 train. 40g protein shake immediately after.
8:30 - 10:00 shower, drive home, put kids to bed. 32+ oz gatorade.
10:00 - 11:00 dinner. Multivitamin and 200mg ibuprofin immediately after.
11:30 bed.
No alcohol on training nights.
Interested to hear if there are things I'm not doing that work well for others to maximize recovery. Thanks!
Will_N.O., has anyone spoken to you about TOTHO yet?
you run the risk of devepling GI (gastrointestinal not kimono) problems with chronic ibuprofen use...
If you're going to spell it out, why even bother abbreviating it?
