What is post-workout nutrition?

Post-workout nutrition is an intriguing topic and rightfully so. The basic idea is threefold:

• The body deals with nutrients differently at different times, depending on activity.
• What you consume before, during, and especially after your workout is important.
• By consuming particular nutrients after your workouts (aka post-workout nutrition), you improve your body composition, performance, and overall recovery.
  

Numerous studies have examined everything from the composition of the carbohydrate in post-workout drinks to exact amino acid combinations. Studies continue to reveal effective post-workout nutrition strategies for athletes and recreational exercisers of all types.

Generally, post-workout nutrition has three specific purposes:

• Replenish glycogen
• Decrease protein breakdown
• Increase protein synthesis
  

In other words, athletes/exercisers want to:

• replenish their energy stores
• increase muscle size and/or muscle quality
• repair any damage caused by the workout
  

In doing so, they want to increase performance, improve their appearance, and enable their bodies to remain injury-free.

Proposed benefits of good post-workout nutrition include:

• Improved recovery
• Less muscle soreness
• Increased ability to build muscle
• Improved immune function
• Improved bone mass
• Improved ability to utilize body fat
  

These benefits seem to work for everyone, regardless of gender or age.
