i'm guessing the staples are:
bcaas
high protein diet with enough daily calories
fish oil
inflammation fighting spices/herbs, inc. ginger.
stretching
anything else proven?
I'd really like to speed up recovery time.

HICA has helped my recovery greatly. We offer it as a stand alone if you want to check it out op:

I also recommend BCAA drinks such as Universal Atomic 7, or Cellucor Alpha Amino, I enjoy both of those even though very different formulas.Gaspari Plasmajet Log:

Great options right here. OP, if you are looking for a pre workout that contains some of the list ingredients you could check out BodyForge 2.0. It's a non stim pre workout, that provides awesome pumps and endurance. One of the best highlights of BF 2.0 is the recovery, with ingredients such as LCLT and Hica.

You basically summed it up with the staples. I find that a BCAA instra workout really makes a difference with recovery. Xtend is def one of my favorite supplements. I have used intrabolic too and it was great as well.

high calories, legit stretching..not some arm swings and butterfly stretches, carbs like honey,bananas,gatorade,or another good source of sugar post workout, and a good mix of fat/protein before bed. I do greek yogurt with a lot of walnuts
