  • Do we really need to rush for that post-workout recovery shake?! 🤔💪 Dive into the science with us as we explore the truth about recovery shakes and muscle recovery. 🧬🥤

    Here is a summary of the key points:
    - There is no need to rush for a post-workout recovery shake, as overall daily nutrient intake is more important than timing for replenishing glycogen stores.
    - Consuming carbohydrates quickly after a workout can be helpful if doing multiple workouts in a day or didn't eat enough before/during, but it won't lead to greater glycogen replenishment on its own.
    - Timing of protein intake (pre vs. post-workout) doesn't impact muscle growth, strength or body composition gains from resistance training.
    - Post-workout protein and carbohydrate intake can enhance recovery by activating mTOR and other signaling pathways to increase muscle protein synthesis rates. However, the increased signaling may not fully explain gains in protein synthesis.
    - A post-workout shake with a 4:1 carb to protein ratio (15-25g protein, 60g carbs) is recommended to optimize these recovery processes, though not critical. The training stimulus is more important than the shake alone.
    - Overall, a recovery shake may help optimize recovery when combined with an optimized training plan adapted to individual needs. But nutrient timing alone is less important than total daily intake.

      I found this to be far less substantive and mostly devoid of critical analysis - most TR reviews offer counterpoints and broader bodies of work to contextualize things. Seems like a move towards click-bait. Sorry to say…

    I tend to feel better when I eat after any type of hard training. Recovery shakes are okay too. But it is more about how I feel (not feeling depleted) than absorbing nutrients better for me.

    All of these studies (and most studies in this area) ONLY use men as their subjects, NO WOMEN. Women are not just small men, and their bodies recovery different. Please consider having Stacey Simms on the podcast, she is an incredible source of knowledge about women's fitness, recovery, and health!

    Would love a video on how to fuel if you ride/run before LT1 exclusively? Do you even need to carb? I go out on long runs/rides & eat cause it's kinda like hiking - you eat, drink something at break points but no idea how it impacts performance.

    If you just finished a ride, where you fueled with 60-90g carbs per hour, do you need the 60g carbs in your protein shake immediately after the ride?

      @@kevinkwmiller I'll say more for them. Over the course of my 1 hour recovery ride yesterday I used approximately 98g of carbs spinning in Z1/Z2. That's a 1 hour easy ride. During a 2 Hour zone 2 ride I'd use approximately 212g of carbs (or more). If I fueled with 90g of carbs for those two hours that would give me a deficit of approximately 32g of carbs. But furthermore, after physical exercise my body will be working to restore not only muscle glycogen but also repair broken muscle tissue AND adapt for another effort in the future. The carbohydrate (and protein) expenditure during the ride and post ride will account for one's need to continue to fuel properly even AFTER the effort. If you don't fuel properly you'll lead to burnout and overtraining or worse, lose muscle. This information is readily available one dozens of TR podcasts, Evoq.bike blogs, Ignitiion Coach Co and Dylan Johnson's advice, Dr. Seiler's information, and more. You need carbohydrates not only for the ride, but for post-exercise muscle repair in addition to proper protein amounts per day (approx 1.5-1.8 g/kg protein min).

    Who were the subjects in the studies referenced? Men? Women? Lots of research by Stacy Simms talks about the differences between the recovery needs of men and women, especially women in different phases of their life - eg. mensturating, perimenopausal and menopausal. Research is so biased to only look at men. Please specify and consider this when reporting studies!
