Post-Throwing Recovery Routine
A post-throwing recovery routine combines flush work, nutrition, light arm care, and sleep right after outings—load logging matters more than ritual icing alone.
A post-throwing recovery routine runs within thirty to sixty minutes after outings—light jog or bike flush, hydration, protein within the recovery window, brief cuff and scapular bands, and planned sleep. Ice is optional for acute soreness; chronic reliance without addressing load is a red flag.
Log pitch count and perceived arm stress for the next day's plan.
Common questions
-
Is ice required after every bullpen?
Not for everyone—brief ice may calm acute soreness, but fix weekly throw totals and sleep if soreness is routine. Persistent inner-elbow or shoulder pain needs evaluation, not more ice.
