Recover Fudge™
Protein Bar

Aim to eat a bar or 50g serving of RecoverFudge within 30 minutes of exercise. It is in this period that the body is most receptive to macronutrient uptake to get the maximum effect on replacing glycogen and repairing muscle tissue. Ideally this should be followed up by a larger, balanced meal within 2-3 hours of training or competing.

Whey protein is a great source of protein, one of the three essential macronutrients the body needs to function and remain healthy. The benefit of whey protein after training is the effect it can have in elevating protein synthesis - this helps to repair muscles after working out. Whey protein can also be helpful in weight control.

Research shows that a serving of just 10g of protein is enough to elevate protein synthesis in the body, the intended outcome of consuming protein foods or products post-workout. For an endurance athlete it is also beneficial to have a good dose of carbs too, with a ratio of 2:1 or 3:1 of carbs to protein being popular. For example if you have 1-g of protein, then 20-30g of carbs alongside this would be optimal.
