Do any of you swimmers use a recovery drink after a workout? Endurox R4 is one that was recommended. Does anyone use this one? Are they really beneficial? :) Any feedback is appreciated.
I have used both Endurox R4 and Accelerade in preparation for and during my marathon swims. I don’t typically use them during my normal training season. I find I typically take in enough calories and protein in my regular diet that I don’t need the additional caloric intake.
I personally found both drinks beneficial in keeping my energy levels up during these long races and I never had any problems of exhaustion in training. I can’t say of this is directly attributable to the Endurox, a spot on training regime or just genetic good fortunes.
