Exercise Recovery & Weight Management
Welcome to another weekend short of The Matter Over Mind Experience
I am your host, Master Trainer & Weight Management Expert, Narado Zeco Powell
This weekend let’s discuss Exercise Recovery
Many of us when trying to lose weight may overtrain & not recover well
This can lead to a host of health issues, including weight gain
Let’s begin!
When we workout our body creates inflammation
That’s one reason why we are sore post workout
The better we heal post workout, means the better we respond to the inflammation
Here are few things that help us best respond to workout related inflammation & heal well:
Quality sleep
During sleep, especially when getting quality sleep is when our bodies heal itself, which includes lowering inflammation
Most of us need around 7 to 9 hours of sleep daily with at least 2 hours of deep sleep
Visit zecohealth.com for my article on how to reset your circadian rhythm so you may get quality sleep
Adequate Protein
Protein breakdown to amino acids which is vital for strength, recovery & performance
I generally recommend 1 gram of protein per pound of goal body weight
For example, if you goal is 160 pounds, then at least 160 grams of protein
Supplement with Essential Amino Acids
Adding EAAs to your diet can give your muscles fuel to improve strength and recovery
I personally use EAAs from AminoCo.
