Welcome back Yoga buff!

For the pain of sore muscles (specially after your first few workouts) I have found that glutamine works wonders. It's an amino acid that carries nitrogen to the cells; it protects your muscles from wasting, bolsters your immune system, and greatly reduces soreness from workouts. I've been using it in powder form; a teaspoon (5g) in a one litre water bottle while working out and another later in the day. It's odourless and tasteless and it reallly does the trick.

Looking forward to reading more,
