Hot water on my muscles and ice cold water on my tendons. I usually apply that with the shower head after each training session. I use heat packs or ice packs if I actually hurt something.
Beyond that, the single greatest recovery thing i've done was when i last straightened out my diet and stopped any and all drinking. Before my last cage grappling match I did like a month of clean eating and no drinking leading up to my match. Miraculously (or obviously) all my injuries and soreness healed in time for the match. I was even increasing my training frequency and training harder but everything still healed up.
ok thanks ill try that, and i often find myself drinking diet pop insted of water so thats something i can definitely change about my diet.

After smashing shins in Thai class or after calf crushes and shit in jj class we use Thai Linament to ease the pain. Stretching after class while really warm helps. Ice
Everything always hurts. Ive accepted that.

if you can find it anywhere there's a great herbal linament called "Zen" we have here in Australia.... it is a god send!
