Bored of the regular protein shake? You can also sip a delicious chocolate milkshake
after working out, which will replenish your energy levels and the glycogen index. According to Cornell University researchers, chocolate milk, as long as it is low fat, is the 'gold standard for a recovery beverage'. Clint Wattenberg, the coordinator of sports nutrition at Cornell, said that "20 grams of protein is optimal for muscle recovery for an athlete weighing around 10 tones." It was concluded in the research that chocolate milk was as effective as any other sports beverage.
Don't forget to keep these tips in mind after exercising, so that you stay fit, the healthy way. And as they, 'As you sow so shall you reap'!
