Post workout shake

Here is another gem from an old TPS Newsletter.

NEW!! Murphy’s Law: Post Workout!

OK, I’ll keep this short and sweet.

Did you know that you can increase the effectiveness of your workout and ensure that you will build muscles and lose fat by doing just one thing?

Studies show that having a meal about 20 minutes after your training will blast your progress through the roof and the BEST way to do this is with a post workout shake containing carbs and protein in a 2 to 1 ratio. This means it should have 2 grams of simple carbohydrates per serving and 1 gram of protein (i.e. 20 grams of protein and 40 grams of carbs).

The simpler the carbs the better. An ideal combination is apple juice and whey protein or a pre-made, post workout drink such as those found in the vending machine at TPS.

Are you having a post workout shake? Are you killing yourself in the gym and not seeing gains? Start this after your next workout and watch your waistline disappear.

Any questions?
