Here are some recovery drink recipes that we recommend:
Mix:
1 serving of whey protein
2 servings of Gatorade
369 calories, 25g protein, 66g Carbohydrate, 0.5g Fat
Gatorade contains carbohydrates and sugars that are absorbed quickly by the body. Mixing Gatorade with whey protein is a simple drink that provides the body with the necessary protein and carbohydrates that will still taste good.
Chocolate Milk
Not many people think of it as a recovery drink but Physiologist Joel Stager, director of the Human Performance laboratory at Indiana University has proven chocolate milk's effectiveness for recovery through his studies and tests published in the International Journal of Sport Nutrition. Chocolate milk has plenty of carbohydrate and protein content, perfect for replenishing exhausted muscles. Plus it packs a nutritional bonus of calcium, and includes just a little sodium and sugar that help recovering athletes retain water and regain energy.
2 servings of chocolate milk is an ideal recovery drink that is commonly sold at a local store or vending machine.
