Mr Prime Posted May 18, 2011 Share Posted May 18, 2011 Protein shakes help to my knowledge, I know the pros use them. Swimming probably too as a non impact stretching gentle exercise. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

VideoPro Posted May 18, 2011 Share Posted May 18, 2011 Have them cut off. Then you can have phantom limbs. Donate cut off legs to someone with a phantom torso. Have them chase you up the street and see if they can catch you. Post a thread on the internet about tired phantom limbs. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

GrannyGranny Posted May 19, 2011 Share Posted May 19, 2011 Ice bath straight after exercise or as cold as you can get it. Alot of athletes use this method after training. It enables the muscles to recover quicker for some reason. http://news.bbc.co.uk/sport1/hi/health_and_fitness/4286038.stm Also stretch (alot) before and after exercise. Also look at your diet, is it providing everything your body needs for regular exercise. Go on to the running forums/websites, lots of advice on training, diet, recovery etc.. Reading some articles a hot bath is the worse thing you can do. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Whirlow Posted May 19, 2011 Share Posted May 19, 2011 Reading some articles a hot bath is the worse thing you can do. Except for jumping in an iced bath straight after exercise and having a massive heart attack. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Frank Sidney Posted May 19, 2011 Share Posted May 19, 2011 Try cannabis. Its a bit of a wonder drug and cures all sorts. If you don't like smoking it just have a gram in food a couple of times a week. Has to be with animal or veg oil/fat. Alternatively, you can have it with a swig of booze..

foxforcefive Posted May 19, 2011 Share Posted May 19, 2011 Raise your legs above heart level when you get the chance. Also massage is great for tired legs, try looking for some tips on self massage on the internet, or book with a professional. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
