Comment GUIDE and I’ll DM you a my Eat To Ride Guide to fuel well, so you can recovery well post ride.

👉 Tip 1: Prioritise Sleep

Sleep is your body’s natural way of reviving and rejuvenating itself. It’s during these hours of rest that your body performs important recovery processes, including muscle repair and the release of growth hormones.

Aim for a minimum of 7 hours of sleep each night to allow your body ample time to heal and strengthen. Remember, proper rest is as important as your time on the saddle. The quality of your sleep matters as much as the quantity, so create a sleep-friendly environment and establish a regular sleep schedule.

👉 Tip 2: Combine Proteins & Carbs for Recovery

The food you eat after a ride plays a crucial role in your recovery. Your body needs a mix of proteins and carbs to repair muscle tissues and restore energy levels. Lean proteins, like chicken or tofu, help repair and build muscle, while carbs, like whole grains or fruits, replenish your energy stores.

👉 Tip 3: Embrace Active Rest

Try Yoga or Walking on Off Days Active rest is a gentle form of exercise that helps your body recover without putting additional strain on your muscles. Activities like yoga or walking help to keep your muscles loose and flexible, reducing stiffness and promoting blood flow to aid in recovery.

Plus, they can provide a refreshing change of pace and a chance to exercise your mind as well as your body.

👉 Bonus tips: Remember, nutrition is just as important as training in your cycling journey. Integrate the right foods into your diet and you will notice the difference in your recovery time.
