Good food to eat to regain strength?

[BeIoved]

A week ago, I did some benchpresses, and pushed myself quite a bit and ended up sore for nearly a week. After resting my triceps for about that week, I feel as if they're finally no longer sore. Today, when I went in to do benchpresses again, I couldn't even pull the strength to do half the reps of what I usually do. I'm guessing I just need to regain my strength, but are there some recommended foods to eat to help this? Please give feedback. emotion_bigheart

Spaghetti or almost any kind of pasta. Stay away from really greasy foods. Load up on carbs!

Depends. Either protein for recovery or carbs for energy

This.
Try to get 1 gram of protein per pound of bodyweight every day.

Whenever I've gone all out on weights, my first meal when I get home is usually a bowl of tuna, tons of nice proteins and nutrients for recovery, sometimes I'll have some toast with PB as a snack later. By morning I'm back to 100%

Potassium from bananas is a must, eat a banana every time you push yourself that hard. You shouldn't need a weeks recovery, you must have pulled/tore something.
