Experts Explain How Hot Tubs Can Aid Athletic Training

Online, August 4, 2013 (Newswire.com) - Smarter and more efficient training schedules can help fitness levels improve but time spent in a hot tub following exercise can effectively aid training, muscle tone and flexibility too.

Hot tub experts Transport a Tub (http://www.transportatub.co.uk/) report that by following athletic training with time spent soaking in a hot tub will not only aid recovery after exercise but can also work to prevent injury too by ensuring the muscles are relaxed, warmed and flexed.

Extending the Benefits of Exercise

If they're not stretched and treated properly muscles can really suffer following exercise sessions. A soak in a hot tub that is heated to a suitable, comfortable temperature can soothe muscles by allowing them to rest buoyed by the water and given the freedom to settle back into place naturally.

When muscles become cold after they have been worked hard they can cramp, ache and even become strained. To avoid injury and discomfort it's important to stretch and de-stress muscles. Gentle stretching exercises in the warm water of a hot tub are perfect for relaxing muscles. The heat encourages lactic acid to return to the muscle and opens the blood vessels to allow oxygen and antibodies to flow through to the tired areas. This gives instant relief to muscles and helps them recover safely. Limbs and muscles will feel stretched and flexible the following day rather than tight and painful.
