Recovery Drink Top Tips

Always make sure your recovery drink contains some carbohydrates, as your body craves this in the first 30 minutes after exercise. Electrolytes are also important in order to replace what you have sweated out.

Finally, make sure that it has some protein, as this is vital to repair the damage done to muscle cells. However, don’t choose a drink which is very high in carbs or protein, as you are simply trying to recover, not bulk up.
