Muscle recovery is when humans are involved in physical work, exercise or injury. After a workout, whether it is cycling or running or weight lifting or swimming or hiking or even walking and a lot of time involved in heavy work and construction, the body has extended it resources and must replenish and heal to get back to a normalcy status. Normal means homeostasis equilibrium and stability to adjusting to the conditions for best survival.During the time of recovery, the body is adapting to the stress associated with the exercise or work, replenishing muscle glycogen and energy storage and time for the body tissue to repair.En Espanol

Después de un entrenamiento, ya sea montar en bicicleta o correr o levantar pesas o nadar o incluso caminar y mucho tiempo involucrado en trabajos pesados y de construcción, el cuerpo ha ampliado sus recursos y debe reponer y sanar para volver a un estado de normalidad. Normal significa equilibrio y estabilidad de la homeostasis para ajustarse a las condiciones para la mejor supervivencia.Durante el tiempo de recuperación, el cuerpo se está adaptando al estrés asociado con el ejercicio o el trabajo, reponiendo el glucógeno muscular y el almacenamiento de energía y el tiempo para que el tejido del cuerpo se repare.
