Other ways to relax and recover 

Alongside supplements there are some lifestyle changes that can be made in order to relax and recover. 

Sports Massages 

Although they might not be the most relaxing massage they are a great way to enhance your recovery and improve your mobility to be able to train more effectively. 

Going for a light walk

On your rest days, going for a light walk or just walking the dog can be a great way to recover. By staying active on your rest days you are keeping the blood flowing to your muscles and keeping them ready for your next workout. 

Stretching / Yoga 

Maybe you can wake up 30 minutes earlier and add some stretches to your routine. By doing this you are not only helping your body recover but you are also setting yourself up for the day ahead. Stretching is a underrated by lots of gym-goers as it has many positive impacts on your training. For example, someone who stretches regularly will be able to perform a deeper squat compared to someone who doesn't stretch. 

Meditation 

Many people find that meditating is a great way to relax the mind and reduce stress. There are many apps to help you get started with meditating and using these could have a knock on effect to your training as some people find they become more motivated after meditating.
