Natural ability, Herculean commitment and focus aside … the major difference between you and leading pro runners, is how they prevent Delayed Onset Muscle Soreness (DOMS).
And how you haven’t … until now!
Hey, I know that elite athletes often have access to virtually unlimited massage and other modalities of physical treatment. At first glance it’s easy to think that could be their advantage right there.
However, there’s a practice that’s actually much simpler which many elite athletes are adopting … and it couldn’t be easier for you to do the same. This practice will also do more for preventing Delayed Onset Muscle Soreness than anything else you can do … including taking ice baths.
In fact, an exhaustive study on the effects of the most common approach to reducing DOMS – cryotherapy (ice baths) The Journal of Sports Sciences reported:
“despite the apparent effects of cryotherapy (ice baths) on exercise-induced muscle damage, it does not appear to alter the normal temporal pattern of tenderness, swelling and strength loss.”
There’s actually a much easier and more effective way to prevent muscle soreness after running, whether you are preparing for a marathon, ultra marathon, triathlon, or any kind of middle/long distance run.
