I like this piece. It generally provides good advice. One thing I think isn't so important for most mere mortals like myself is the idea of nutrition timing ("eat protein right after exercising"). Most of us should habitualize a balanced diet where-in quality protein is a part of every meal, consumed regularly throughout the day.

https://www.npr.org/2025/02/22/nx-s1-5234138/want-to-reduce-soreness-after-a-workout-make-time-for-this-4-step-routine #:~:text=How%20to%20do%20it%3A%20Spend,can%20alternate%20between%20the%20movements.

These simple post-workout activities can help reduce pain and even improve athletic performance. But many people don't prioritize recovery and self-care after exercise.
