How recovery is affected
Introduction
If you don't recover effectively from high intensity exercise it can often lead to impacts in the ability to exercise as effectively in the following days after that session.
Rest is one of the most important things you can do to help recovery. There are compounds that can help support nutrient delivery to the muscles from high intensity exercise and thus improve recovery meaning you can get back to training quicker and at a high intensity again [1].
