Post-Workout Recovery Stack

A layered recovery sequence that moves from percussion to compression to cold in the 45 minutes after training. Each modality targets a different system — soft tissue, lymphatic, and inflammatory. Do this after hard sessions and you'll notice the difference the next morning.

Overview

This protocol turns a broad recovery goal into a repeatable sequence. The point is not to add complexity; it is to make the behavior easy to run the same way every time, then let the consistency compound.

Expected benefit

Reduced DOMS by 30–50%, faster return to baseline HRV, and the ability to train hard again 24 hours sooner.

How to think about it

Run it as written for the first block, then adjust one variable at a time. The useful signal comes from repeating the same inputs long enough to see what actually changes.
