Fitness Tip | POST WORKOUT CONSUMPTION
Consuming the right foods after exercise allows the body to optimize its’ ability to build and replenish muscle, making you fitter and stronger. However, it’s not always practical to eat a meal after working out.
Therefore, try renewing your body's lost energy supply through drinking protein-rich beverages, which can help with the muscle rebuilding and also quicken recovery time.
For instant refreshment, down a glass of chocolate milk which is rich in protein and carbohydrates. It also contains calcium, which increases bone strength.
Mixing a scoop of whey powder with plain milk also contains plenty of protein and carbohydrates for improving post-workout recovery.
But what isn't ideal? Well, anything caffeinated such as soda or energy drinks. You're more likely to crash and burn due to the high sugar content, which will actually worsen your post-workout fatigue.
