For reverse hypers, I use the dining room table, with a pillow for cushioning. (the way my table is constructed, I can set myself up over one of the legs, so the table doesn't break) I can't add weight, and I can't use momentum (without breaking the table), but I do get good traction, and I can get blood moving into the area, and inflammation moving out. If the back is feeling especially bad, I do one leg at a time until the area is warmed up. I don't know why, but that's easier on my back. I'll do these between every set on days where the back is especially bad. I do them to warm up, I do them to cool down. I do them if I've been sitting for a long time. I do them before bed. They are amazing. The other traction thing that has worked well for me is getting in a dip position where my legs can hang free (I use the rails on my stairs) and gently swinging my legs side to side - I'm not sure why this is different than hanging from my arms, but I get a lot of relief from this. I usually get cavitation in the sacro-illiac region. I only do this one if it feels like things are going to seize up. And the last unusual thing I do that helps my recovery, is loosen up my thoracic spine. I tend to go kyphotic, and that adds a constant tension that seems to slow recovery. I hope that will help some other old, broken guys.

I had a recovery session yesterday. I just did a C2 Rower for 45 minutes at a light pace and foam rolled. It helped my blood flow to do the cardio at a steady state. The foam roller just felt good. It's a viper foam roller that basically vibrates. But yeah man, good knowledge bomb you dropped on the masses. I don't hear people talk enough about recovery. Today I'm hitting squats, pull ups, bench press, deadlifts, and over head pressing along with some core work. I do my stuff in a circuit so my session should be quick and painful. Take care.

When you do videos like this where you are working through a number of steps or methods it may be appreciated to list those steps/methods in the description of your video in case someone wants to copy them down after watching (instead of searching through the video again to find them individually).

Ice baths don't get a lot of love lately but I'm a big fan. Don't know if they help with recovery, but the tingly feeling after is fun, and I generally feel happy, relaxed, and energised after. Got to say I enjoy doing them as well as the effects. Ice showers... Same feelings after but far less enjoyable to do... I'd say if you can get your whole body submerged in the water ice baths are pretty nice, anything less though and they are grim.

Ice baths for the win. Although small tubs are a problem. This time of year a local swimming hole works well enough but make sure the car is warmed up. To go along with movement/decompression I like to do light swimming on my days off where I do large movements and stretches in the water. Also I find deep breathing necessary for holding breath underwater helps a lot. Great video I think active recovery and eating are way harder to keep in check then lifting heavy and punishing myself in the gym.

Breathing exercises such as Buteyko method and Frolov breathing device also help immensely with recovery, especially the more advanced you become with these techniques. Herbs like comfrey contain allantoin which helps the body regenerate cells quicker and therefore helps recovery. I personally take Suma root tincture, which also contains allantoin and natural plant steroids. My 2 cents...

Brian, there's another option for the ice bath. If you can get a pool, anything that'll hold enough water, invest in a pool chiller (see amazon). It'll set you back $2500, but you can get that water COLD relatively quickly. It's not ideal, but it's an option. Thanks for mentioning the lacrosse ball in a weight plate. This never occurred to me.

As far as sleep; a word to folks like me who work the night shift and have to sleep in the day; you can either drop some good cash on some good blackout curtains or cut out some cardboard the same size as your window and put those on before you lay down. I find that the cardboard works better because it blocks out every bit of light, while the curtains are more aesthetic, even the best ones may leak out some light. Another good alternative is wearing a sleep mask. It may not be the most masculine thing on Earth but who cares if your getting the proper sleep and making huge gainz while you're at it.

Brian, haz a question for you. My right tricep near the elbow area is bothersome after most of my press days. I've had tricep tendonitis several times over the last year or two and it's annoying as hell. When I do bench, tricep extensions, or OHP, my right tricep is almost always feeling it first (I am right handed). Both triceps are dead even as far as strength goes and made several attempts to press up with both arms evenly. When I do try to stretch my triceps, I literally feel nothing. I'll get a nice shoulder stretch depending on the stretch. I've foam rolled my tricep too and no pain whatsoever. I've tried icing and compression sleeves. Any ideas what it may be? Glad to see your channel blowing up too.

What would be a good equivalent for a lacrosse ball that I could get in New Zealand? Maybe a cricket ball or softball (baseball)?
