still sore after every race (Read 466 times)

billwestrick Pro - Privateer 40+ Posts: 933 Gender:	still sore after every race Apr 9^th, 2010, 8:20am what is up with this? i work my butt off training as hard as i can but it takes me several days to recover after every race. the last one took me 5 days to feel normal again. more seat time should help. better weather is here so i guess i will ride more often. does anyone else feel my pain? bw

I think that racing just beats you so much that it takes a while for your body to recover. I dont know of any exercise that can imitate a race. Thats why everyone says to get into shape is to ride,ride ,ride.

Chris Miller, (VET A) uses something called Cytomax (spelling?) He drinks it before, during, and after the race and he says he isn't sore at all. He is 38 or 39. Oh, he also has completed the P90X routine.

Bill, we are all old, we just have to come to terms with it.

The biggest thing that I have found to help is to do cardio the day after w/ alot of stretching. Not too hard of cardio tho...

I'm a little sore after races now but not near what i use to be. That stuff has been a blessing for me moving to the afternoon at the nationals.

I never tried any of that recovery drink so idk if it works or not..

StuntJake912 Pro - Privateer Im fast... well thats what she said. Posts: 260 Gender:	Re: still sore after every race Reply #10 - Jun 18^th, 2010, 3:22am I work out and take many suppliments and vitamins. a key factor is recovery is L-Glutamine. It help rebuild broken down muscle and recovery time. I take a lot of this along with Amino Acids before and after a race.

I swear by Cytomax® Performance Plus Ready-To-Drink. I put 2-3 bottles in my camelbak plus
I take MotoXFuel to reduce/eliminate arm pump. Just be sure to take a minute and flush out your camelbak with fresh water.

I'm 48 and usually my only exercise is racing 1-2 times month. Couple weeks ago we had back-to-back race Sat and Sun. I did both and went to work Mon with very little muscle ache.
