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?

I like the Accel Gel (strawberry kiwi) because it has the 4:1 carb/protein ratio...I have to have some protein with any kind of sugar/carbs or I get totally jittery and basically worthless. And I don't like the taste of the drinks...so I stick with lots of water along with the gel.
My son also swims and totally loves chocolate milk after workouts.
