When it comes to exercise recovery, then there's a couple of tips that I want to give you for really improving your sports performance and recovery. So time between sessions you can reduce that time, you can recover much easier. reduce the effects of Dom's delayed onset muscle soreness by taking into Cantonese tips. So I would always have a green smoothie, straight after exercise. And also, before exercise, so this week, I've been running six days a week I've done six miles each morning at the gym. Well now I've got some water gym.
So we'll come off the gym and then do a six mile run out. And I'm feeling good. I'm not aching too much. And the key to this is before I go, so in the morning, I'm running pretty much not Have a big breakfast before I go because I'm only running at a moderate pace. If I was running faster, I'd be carving off a lot more but I just have an apple first thing, so an organic apple from my neighbor's garden. have that.
I'll go and do my six mile run and I've had half of one of these this morning. This is a green smoothie with it's got grapes and bananas, and a bit of pineapple. And what else a little bit of mango, I think and spinach and spinach. So getting the key here is with the spinach you're getting protein you're getting so building blocks with the fresh live enzymes with the live foods, raw foods, green, powerful rich foods spinach, then you're getting the nutrients you need to build and repair your muscles. This is key. So that's why I like to have a green smoothie.
And I've done an experiment where after I've done a long run so for example When I've run 30 miles before, and I've done this a few times, so I remember one time actually I ran a marathon and drove straight back, it was right down in in Cornwall and I drove about an hour back home and didn't eat anything I had like one banana, and I ate so much for days and days and days. And I really believe it's down to the fact that I didn't feel myself straight after is to repair those muscles. The next time around that distance. I straightaway had one of these but a much bigger green smoothie with about seven bananas, loads of spinach, cucumber, and I didn't make as much I recovered within a day or two. So it really makes a difference what you fuel your fuel yourself with to recover the best.
So for optimum recovery, recovery times and less muscle soreness, fuel yourself with high nutrient foods. If you get protein shakes with whey and all sorts of chemicals, I would just go with a live green smoothie every single time.
