Post-workout

What to eat after your workout

After your workout is over, your muscle cells will be crying out for nutrients. This is THE BEST time to utilise fast carbohydrates as well as a good quality protein source for muscle recovery and growth.

You need carbs post workout – preferably liquid with a high glycemic index (like Vitargo but it depends on what you have available, see the supplements section for more information).

You need protein post workout; immediately post workout (whey protein shake) and more around 2hrs after from a lean protein source.
