POST-WORKOUT ENERGY & MUSCLE RECOVERY
When your muscles are working, they are depleting your body’s levels of glucose (ready to use energy) and glycogen (stored energy). Once exhausted, it is critical to raise body insulin levels immediately to prevent the release of cortisol. We blend both fast and slow digesting carbohydrates to kick start the recovery process and protects against insulin “crash” later.
Protein also plays an important role in repairing and growing muscle fibers. Adding a scoop of this product to your post-workout Protein provides you 20 grams of carbs to match your 20 grams of Protein. However, for high-intensity workouts, research suggests a 2:1 carb/protein ratio is ideal for recovery.
INTRA-WORKOUT & ENDURANCE FUEL
Once a workout goes longer than 90 minutes, glycogen stored from carbohydrates can get drained, especially for a moderate to hard intensity workout. Consuming additional carbohydrates during prolonged training can help athletes to spare their glycogen stores, keep blood glucose from dropping and help replenish glycogen stores before the next training day.
Adding this product to your BCAAs provides a delicious intra-workout drink that provides fast and slower digesting carbs to support you all the way to the finish line.
