Alms for the Lost

Be good, Be strong, Be confident.

During #exercise, muscles are called upon to work. During this work, #fuel is used up, waste products are created and #muscle fiber structure is disrupted by multiple #microtears. ⠀ ⠀ Imagine a banquet, for comparison, during which the food is eaten, garbage is accumulated (napkins, chicken bones, etc.), and the table settings disrupted. Before the next banquet, the food needs to be restocked, the garbage cleared, and the tables reset.⠀ ⠀ For muscles, this process of resetting for the next event is called #recovery. The muscle is returned to full function without #soreness. https://www.instagram.com/p/Bn89Mpbn-Pp/?utm_source=ig_tumblr_share&igshid=1dbahzgf1efsb
