How did we create the best post workout recovery shake on the market today?

This week we’re taking you through the Supreme Nutrition Recovery range. It comes in the classic Supreme flavours of Strawberries and Cream, Chocolate and Banana and covers the key nutrients needed to refuel and replenish after training.

Our Blend

When it came to researching Recovery products, we found a huge range of blends with different ingredients and for various different reasons. Due to this range of choice, when we asked our PT’s and gym-goers, the age-old question of what to eat after a workout the answers were often varied and unsure.

We took this feedback on board when developing our Recovery range since here at Supreme Nutrition, we believe that Recovery protein blends should be kept simple and lean by only using ingredients backed by science to improve your recovery.

We also discovered that many of us are searching for the ideal post workout meal but sometimes we can find it difficult to stomach after training. With this set clearly in our mind, we’ve created our blend with the optimum level of nutritional replenishment, great taste and most importantly, great mixability so that you have everything you need to refuel without asking your stomach to do a workout of its own.

So, how did we do it differently?

Like all of our Supreme Nutrition products, we only source the highest quality ingredients to go into our blends.

We've added:

Our High quality Whey Protein Isolate:

With 33.5g of protein and 17g of carbohydrates we were determined to make a lean and efficient recovery shake. To ensure we acheived this we have used our Whey Protein Isolate within our recovery blend. The highest quality protein available sourced from premium manufacturers that are informed sport screened, providing clean and quality ingredients. 

Complex Carbohydrates

The healthiest way to reap the benefits from amino acids and antioxidants is by eating a diet high in lean protein and complex carbohydrates. Further to this, the majority of carbohydrates should come from complex carbohydrates (starches) and naturally occurring sugars, rather than processed or refined sugars. We have therefore included complex carbohydrates in our Recovery blend to provide vitamins, minerals, and fiber that are important to your health.

We have blended Maltodextrin into our Recovery range since it is a fast acting carbohydrate that replenishes your muscle glycogen stores whilst also providing your body with the energy needed to breakdown protein post workout. Typically made using either corn, rice or potato starch, and without risk of fat gains, Maltodextrin helps reduce the effects of muscle fatigue and supports muscle growth following your workout.

L-Glutamine

Over 61% of skeletal muscle is Glutamine, making it the most common amino acid found in your muscles. It also consists of 19% nitrogen, making it the primary transporter of nitrogen into your muscle cells. We’ve included it in our recovery blend due to its importance after exercise when your glutamine levels become depleted.

Depleted glutamine levels can lead to decreases in strength, stamina and recovery. It can even take up to 6 days for glutamine levels to return to normal and since it plays such an important part in protein synthesis, this is pretty serious. By adding L-Glutamine to your diet, you can minimize the breakdown of muscle and improve protein metabolism.

In all, we've created our lean recovery shake with you and your post workout recovery in mind. You can rest assured that we have tested and tried our formula to give you the nutrition you need to perform in a great tasting shake.
