I'm interested in what everyone does for recovery.
I know most of us spend 3-5 days a week wrecking our bodies, but what are we doing to dig ourselves out of the whole. Obviously good nutrition and sleep is key, but MOST hardcore fitness guys i know usually spend a decent amount of money on masssage, deep tissue shit, and other stuff.
Personally, I am lazy and dont want to throw the extra $100+ a week to throw at massage stuff. One thing i did invest in (which im trying to use more and make it a habit) is one of those massage guns. I am trying to use that on all major bodypart at least once a week. And after watching a recent Joe Rogan podcast, the one with the strongman, my wife actually ordered me a Compex EMS machine. I did some heavy research into it and the majority of it pushes it as a recovery technique and nothing else. So i'm trying to incorporate that into my weekly routine.
But just interested in what everyone else is doing and if they feel it works.
