Post Workout

Your post-workout meal may very well be your most important meal of the day. The reason is that when you’re finished with an intense workout, you’re entering a catabolic state where your muscle glycogen stores are depleted and increased cortisol levels are beginning to excessively break down muscle tissue. These conditions are not good, and the only way to reverse this catabolic state (muscle break down) and promote an anabolic state (muscle growth) is to consume a quickly digestible post-workout meal as soon as you can after training. The goal is to choose a bodybuilding sports supplement that has quickly digestible carbs to replenish muscle glycogen as well as quickly digestible protein to provide the amino acids needed to jump start muscular repair. The surge of carbohydrates and amino acids from this quickly digested meal promotes an insulin spike from the pancreas, which shuttles nutrients into the muscle cells.
