MODESTO, Calif., (August 23, 2023) – Prime Time is now! Hall of Fame athlete and now collegiate coach, Deion “Coach Prime” Sanders, and California Almonds are teaming up for a partnership of a lifetime to help consumers own their PRIME. Being in your prime is a mindset, and the grind to own your prime never stops. That’s why Coach Prime and California Almonds are encouraging individuals to be smart about recovery. Almonds are rich in nutrients that can help with exercise recovery – making them THE food to own your prime.
A perfect exercise food, almonds may help your recovery response from physical activity. Research, funded by the Almond Board of California, conducted over 4 weeks among 64 U.S. adults ages 30-65 who are occasional exercisers found that most study participants who ate almonds experienced reduced fatigue and tension, increased leg and lower back strength during recovery, and decreased muscle damage during the first day of recovery1.The study included non-smoking participants without obesity who exercised occasionally; therefore, the findings cannot be generalized to other demographic and health status groups.
Coach Prime knows hard work means being strategic about recovery, which is why he adds almonds to his routine for their exercise recovery benefits. Prime Time never ends whether you’re a weekend warrior or a competitive athlete – there’s no “off the clock,” so you have to keep that energy, confidence and consistency up, something Coach Prime instills in his team.
