I am looking for a suggestions on nutritional suppliments after my workouts. High carbo, High protein? I swim in the morning 3 days/wk, weights 2 days/wk. I eat a whole grain cereal before my workout. Does anyone suggest one of those protein or cabo drinks that are highly advertised, I never trust those adds. I was thinking some sort of protein supplement, but I don't need to bulk up my muscles, as I am a swimmer not a muscle head. I just want some sort of muscle recovery supplement. I go straight to work after my workouts, so I need something "on the go".
Any suggestions?

They have a product called HEED, it is like gatorade except no gucose or sucrose. all long chain maltodextrin. no blood sugar spike no drop off.
After a hard workout I use their Recoverite. I kid you not, no soreness, no day after fatigue.
Hammer was originally a cycleing nutrition company and is still based mainly around endurance sports. I will say this. It's an aquired taste because, it's nutritional and not marketed like accelerade or gatorade, based on taste from all the sugar.
I rarely eat before a workout lasting less than 90 minutes but after warmup i wll start to sip on 150 calories of heed. Helps maintain body comp. while giving me the energy to pound some hard yards.:anim_coffee:
