P90X Recovery Drink Works!
Wow, this stuff must work. As most of you already know, I went for a 4.3 mile jog this past Sunday (did not take the P90X recovery drink after). My legs were a little sore on Monday but Tuesday they were ridiculously sore. I am doing “doubles” in phase 3 which is four extra cardio-x workouts a week on top of my primary P90X routine. I have not completed one cardio-x session this week so yesterday I decided to run another 4 miles during my lunch break. Not only were my legs feeling normal again, I figure a 4 mile run could count as 1 or 2 cardio-x sessions. I was a bit concerned about how my legs would feel today, especially knowing that I had the “legs & back” workout to do. To my surprise, they were completely fine…maybe felt a smidgen of soreness.
The fact that I took the P90X recovery drink right after my jog yesterday definitely played a role in my recovery. Now, did I expect to feel like I did on Tuesday after yesterday’s run…no, I did not. Prior to Sunday, the last time I went for a jog was about 7 months ago so I pretty much got the leg muscles that are used for jogging out of retirement. However, I am SHOCKED that my legs were not sore this morning.
