How CBD and CBG Can Support Post-Workout Recovery

By InyaHemp

After an intense workout, your body craves recovery and that’s where natural cannabinoids like CBD (cannabidiol) and CBG (cannabigerol) may offer support. At InyaHemp, we specialize in wellness solutions powered by hemp, and we’re here to explain how these two plant-based compounds can play a role in your post-workout routine.

Why Recovery Matters After Exercise

Recovery is a critical part of progress. After lifting weights, running, or training hard, your muscles experience tiny tears and inflammation. Giving your body time and tools to recover can reduce soreness, prevent injury, and improve future performance.

While rest and hydration are essential, many athletes and wellness enthusiasts are now turning to natural hemp-based recovery aids to enhance their recovery process.

What Are CBD and CBG?

CBD (Cannabidiol) and CBG (Cannabigerol) are two non-psychoactive compounds found in the hemp plant. They interact with your body’s endocannabinoid system (ECS), which plays a role in maintaining balance across various functions like mood, pain, inflammation, and sleep.

Unlike THC, neither CBD nor CBG will get you high. Instead, they are being researched for their potential to naturally support recovery and overall wellness.

Benefits of CBD for Recovery

CBD is one of the most studied cannabinoids and may support post-workout recovery in several key ways:

  • May help reduce inflammation – ideal for sore muscles or joints
  • May promote relaxation and stress relief – helpful after intense sessions
  • Supports sleep quality – crucial for muscle repair and performance
  • Soothes aches – when applied as a topical balm or lotion

Benefits of CBG for Recovery

While less well-known than CBD, CBG is gaining attention for its potential to support the body post-exercise:

  • May support a healthy inflammatory response –particularly in joints and connective tissue
  • May assist with focus and mental clarity – for athletes who train hard and work hard
  • Gentle support for gut health – ideal for maintaining balance in high-stress training regimens

CBG is often referred to as the “stem cell” of cannabinoids, as other cannabinoids like CBD and THC are synthesized from it.

CBD vs. CBG: Which Is Better for Recovery?

Both cannabinoids offer unique benefits—but together, they may provide even greater results thanks to the entourage effect, where multiple compounds work synergistically.

Benefit CBD CBG
Inflammation Support ✔️ ✔️
Muscle & Joint Recovery ✔️ ✔️
Focus & Mental Clarity ❌ ✔️
Sleep & Relaxation ✔️ ❌

Tip: For best results, try a blend of CBD + CBG in oils, capsules, or topicals depending on your routine.

How to Use CBD and CBG Post-Workout

Here are some common ways to incorporate CBD and CBG into your fitness recovery plan:

  • Topicals (balms/lotions) – Apply to sore areas for localized support
  • Tinctures or oils – Use sublingually for full-body balance
  • Capsules or softgels – Great for daily, consistent recovery support
  • Pre-bedtime use – Help your body repair during deep sleep
