Post workout shake

As you know now, good nutrition is very important for you to be able to reach your goals. One of my Golden rules in my E-Book, The Ultimate Guide to Express Fat Loss,  is the post-workout shake.

Your muscles have a reserve of glycogen (sugar) and when you exercise, you use this reserve. In reality, it takes around 24 hours to restore your glycogen levels to the maximum. I’ll tell you a secret. After I finish my workout, I take my protein shake mix with 1 cup of orange juice. By getting some simple sugars right away after my workout, I start to replenish the sugar in my muscles more quickly, and at the same time, the simple sugars give me a little boost of energy.

You need to do this right after your workout. Don’t wait until you are back at home. It will be too late to get the most out of your post workout shake. I carry my protein powder (dry) in my bottle and when I’m done with my workout, I add the juice and drink it right away. You need to try Strawberry Protein Powder with Orange Juice, this is a real treat after a tough workout and it’s taste so good. You can add little more water if you like your post workout shake more liquid and not too sweet. This is up to you and how you like your shake.

After your post workout shake, wait around 60 to 90 minutes before you take a good meal with lean protein, vegetables and some complex carbs.

Start taking your post workout shake and you will see better results and faster recovery.

Keep Moving, Stay Fit!

To your health,
