Ginger

Spicy wingman for your post-workout recovery.
It doesn’t hit like a pre-workout rocket, but it sneaks in after the chaos, cooling down the fire that causes muscle soreness (DOMS, that nasty after-party hangover in your quads). Ginger’s anti-inflammatory vibe helps calm the storm, easing stiffness and dialing down pain so you bounce back faster. It also cranks circulation, getting fresh blood where it needs to go, and keeps your stomach from revolting after high-intensity madness. Translation: less hobbling, more dancing — because nobody wants leg day to crash their weekend set.
