There are four key supplements and two key antioxidants to enhance your body's recovery from exercise by boosting the various systems of the muscles' recovery process after overexertion. It is important to combine this supplements with enough sleep, to let your body recover.

Creatine monohydrate supplementation program. Creatine phosphate is a source of energy in muscle cells that fuels maximum intensity efforts. Creatine can increase the level of creatine phosphate that is stored in the muscles, which allows the muscle to work at higher intensities for a longer duration.

Glutamine supplementation. Glutamine levels have been shown to decrease in relation to extreme over-training, often making immune system weaker. Studies show that glutamine can increase training tolerance even after prolonged exercise.

( HMB) Beta-hydroxy beta-methylbutyrate program: This is produced in the body from proteins containing the amino acid leucine. It is believed that HMB reduces muscle break down following strenuous exercise.

L-carnitine supplementation program. L-carnitine comes from eating meats, and is made by the liver and kidneys. Its purpose is to transport fatty acids across cell membranes to be metabolized. Some metabolism experts believe that why l-carnitine is helpful; by taking l-carnitine post-workout, you can reduce exercise-induced muscle tissue damage and improve the recovery of the tissues that have been damaged.

Select preferred antioxidants to reduce post-workout muscle soreness and tissue damage. There is some evidence that oxygen radicals play a role in the cellular damage that follows the rupture of muscle fibers during exercise. Antioxidants are needed to limit this damage. Vitamins E and C are especially good at defending against oxidative damage to muscles. Antioxidants also reduce swelling and inflammation as well as help remove wastes from muscles, helping them function at their best.
