Recovery Tip of the Day: Red Light Therapy |
Want to speed up muscle recovery like the pros? Try red light therapy. First, grab a red light panel or lamp. Stand or sit about 6-12 inches away and expose the sore muscles for 10-20 minutes. Do this 3-5 times a week for best results. The red light boosts circulation and reduces inflammation, helping your muscles recover faster after intense workouts. Just remember, it’s a recovery tool, not a miracle magic pill — keep those stretches and rest days in check! |
