Recovery is where adaptation happens — and where most money gets wasted. Here’s what earns its place.
The non-negotiables
- Protein within a few hours (0.4g/kg per meal works)
- Sleep 7–9 hours — the ultimate recovery drug
- Easy movement on rest days
- Hydration with actual meals
The botanical additions
Plenty of lifters run green vein pre-session and red vein or Chill on rest evenings — energy on training days, wind-down on recovery days. The vein guide explains the split (21+).
What to skip
- Glutamine for most trainees
- Detox teas and sweat suits
- Anything promising overnight muscle
Programming the week
Hard days, easy days, and genuinely off days. Our athlete’s guide covers the full weekly structure with botanicals slotted sensibly.
