if you’re 50 (i’m 48) you’ll most likely need more protein.  i was doing 1g and not recovering for the next day.  i upped that to 1.5g and instantly i was ready the next day!  see this article:


you might also take some protein powder in drink midday as well. that may help.

get your adrenals, ferritin, and full thyroid panel done. might also want to check with a functional medicine doc on systemic inflammation.  all of this can inhibit recovery….
reading back to your initial post, do you do any of the mwod tips on improving position?  bad position will wipe out muscles faster, good position will use the right muscles more and improve efficiency…
