Nothing feels better than completing a rigorous workout. Although you might be tired, you feel accomplished. Don’t let that hard work go to waste! Below are some tips from Health.com to get the most out of your workout after it is all over.
Stretch, stretch, stretch! This will help prevent injuries and help with that next day soreness. Have a lot of tight knots? Use a foam roller to help get rid of them.
You do actually need to eat! Within two hours after you work out to help repair muscles. Eating some complex carbs and little bit of protein is ideal – try eating half a peanut sandwich on wheat .
Do be cautious of what you eat. As tempting as it is, don’t hit up that burger joint post workout. You worked really hard and this will only set you back.
Do you have any post workout tips? Please share with us below!

The idea of a detox cleanse can seem pretty alluring. Lose weight very quickly. Even celebrities like Gwyneth Paltrow and Kat Von D have done these risky diets.
Why are detoxes so hazardous to your health? We’ve gathered the facts from Health.com about why detox might not be worth it:
- Our bodies already have natural detoxifiers. Our kidneys, liver and colon already serve this purpose!
- Detoxes, such as the Master Cleanse, can diminish nutrients our bodies need and can be very harmful.
- It can actual cause more toxins! Since your body is trying to burn up so much fat, toxins are released. This can cause bad breathe, nausea and even death in some cases.
If you are feeling weighed down, try eating more fruits and vegetables. The fiber in these super foods will help clear you out in a healthy way!
Has anyone out there had a bad experience with a cleanse?
