Every hard workout will result in minor inflammation and damaged muscle fibers, but this natural process leads to an increase in performance in the long run. By helping reduce inflammation, CBD assists the recovery process and allows you to return to training faster.

Regeneration is a big part of recovery. Getting a good night's sleep can have a substantial impact on your athletic performance as your muscles recovery most during sleep.
