Cabot Fit Tips

We hear a lot about the benefits of daily physical activity, but it’s also important to address what comes after. Recovery is a critical part of fitness that’s often overlooked. To celebrate this month’s CabotFit Team participation in the KeyBank Vermont City Marathon, we’re sharing a few of our favorite recovery tips from CabotFit Bloggers throughout the month. ~Regan Jones, RD

From Carissa Bealert of Fit to Flex:

“After a run or a strength session I make sure I refuel with not just carbs but protein too. A great go-to post-workout snack is chocolate milk, but for me I like tart cherry juice mixed with whey protein. It doesn’t have to be refrigerated and I like to tart cherry taste. Plus there’s some new research that says tart cherry juice can help reduce inflammation.”
