Day 5: Leg Day

Leg day! Autumn’s favorite day of the week.  She says that a lot in her videos so if you forget this, she will remind us all.  ;) 

We have 45 minutes on the clock today and we are going to feel it. Grab your dumbbells and have 2 sets so you can figure out what to start with.  Don’t feel likeyou have to go really heavy now. Choose your weights carefully, listen for Autumn's form cues, listen to your body, and don’t overdo it. We still have 75 days of workouts ahead of us! 

Speaking of tomorrow’s workout, we should  talk about Beachbody Performance Recover and Recharge. These are two supplements that can really help with exercise-induced muscle soreness and recovery.

Beachbody Performance Recover is what you drink right after your workout to help replenish your muscles and reduce exercise-induced soreness. It has 20 grams of protein, including branched-chain amino acids to help promote muscle growth, and pomegranate extract, which has been shown to promote muscle recovery.

Beachbody Performance Recharge is what you drink at night before bed to help reduce delayed onset muscle soreness (DOMS). With 20 grams of slow-release protein and tart cherry extract to promote overnight recovery, it helps you wake up ready to crush your next workout. And it’s like having a little dessert before bed!

I posted an article showing when to eat specific types of proteins.  At certain times of the day, or after specific exercises, you'll want to eat / drink fast releasing proteins, while other times you'll benefit more from slow release proteins. I find this so interesting and enjoyed researching and adding to this article found HERE
