Everywhere I turn I keep hearing about how good it is to eat some fig newtons right after the workout for their supposedly providing you with the essential things you need.I looked at the nutrition facts, though and it does not look that impressive for fig newtons on there, hardly any protein, not many vitamins, just a good amount of carbs, that's about it.So what is their "magic power?"

Most of my swims are in the morning early - 6:00. I try to eat a PB&J sandwich before I swim (on wheat). Seems to do the trick for me. I generally don't eat after - but do drink lots of water after.
