Like you, I’m interested in results.

I have followed the habits of successful powerlifters, bodybuilders, and various strength athletes for some time and have picked up a recovery tip or two along the way. And while I am a proponent of the often pricey creatine, fish oil, joint support formulas, protein powders, BCAAs, and many other supplements that help you heal faster, you can add this regimen to your recovery arsenal on the cheap—assuming you have decent running water. This is for everyone who wants soreness to disappear sooner, to have more energy, and to be ready for the next training session at 100%.

In other words, this can help YOU!

I’m not going to cite any references, because at this point in the game I’m basing what works on empirical and anecdotal evidence. If it works for someone else, and it works for me, I’m going to pass the information on.

It’s this easy:

2 minutes as hot as you can stand

1 minute as cold as you can stand

Repeat 2 to 3 times

This process allegedly increases and constricts blood flow, which in turn flushes lactic acid and increases nutrient transport. I don’t really care: It makes me feel great, I recover faster, and so will you.

Give this a try and let me know what you think.
