Need help with recovery?
You have committed lots of time and effort to your pursuit of better fitness capacity and are starting to feel the effects of the constant effort. Maybe there are a few things in the linked article that can help your recovery. Here is one I like:
9. Ditch the Advil. While I don’t purport to be smarter than your doctor, here is one area where I disagree with his recommendation to scarf the Vitamin I (ibuprofen) and other NSAIDs (non-steriodal anti-inflammatories). Sure, NSAIDs suppress the inflammatory process and help with pain control. But research has shown that they actually slow down the overall healing process, and cause the “healed” tissue to be less strong. So allow your body’s healing process run its natural course, and don’t band-aid it with Advil. – From whole9life.com
Not doing this would help your post-WOD recovery

It’s the chalk that gave you away, Em!
