Gym workout routines cater to individual preferences and desires. Some of us want really defined muscles, while some may just want to lose weight. Either way, working out is what gives us the sense of satisfaction of being one step closer to our goal.
Post Workout Tips
Sweating it out is one-half of taking care of your body. The other half is re-hydrating it post-workout. Exercising helps lose excess salts along with much-needed water. To replenish this we often drink water throughout the day. But what about the skin?
Taking a bath once a day not only helps clean the body to stay hygienic, but it also benefits your body in several other ways.
Post Workout Muscle Soreness: Sometimes after an intense workout your muscles may feel sore. This can be avoided to some extent by post-workout stretches, but if you work your muscles, they will feel sore the next day (it’s like a reward). A cold shower can help reduce post-workout muscle soreness.
Post Workout Pain: When you start exercising after a long time, it is normal to experience a certain amount of post-workout pain. Ideally, your muscles shouldn’t hurt after a few days. Understanding the cause and the exact problem helps in deciding how to deal with it. Any inflammation in muscles can be reduced by a cold shower, while if you are looking to relax your muscles, you should opt for warm showers.
Post Workout Ice Bath: Ice bath is recommended for athletes in training as they undergo intense training. Ice baths may relieve them of their muscle soreness, or post-workout pain. However, before choosing ice baths, make sure you talk to your trainer/mentor. Ice baths can cause cold shock responses, so be careful.
