Product Information

Fructose: Fructose is the other key carbohydrate included here, and it’s one that we’re not particularly fond of. The body doesn’t use fructose well, and it can’t become muscle glycogen like dextrose, our preferred carb. It cannot be absorbed straight into the blood stream (dextrose can) but first has to travel to the liver to be changed into glucose which is then turned into glycogen and stored by the liver to be released whenever the liver thinks it is needed to maintain blood glucose. As such, it does nothing to replace lost glycogen in the muscles, making it a pretty pointless post-workout choice. While we’re told a 4:1 or minimum 2:1 carb to protein ratio is the best, this near 1:1 product does seem to be helping ease fatigue, repair muscles and do what it says on the tin. It’s also very popular. Whether that’s because it is aimed at a slightly different market than other post-workout drinks (runners, cyclists as opposed to bodybuilders or gym fanatics) is unclear. Perhaps they have different requirements, or need slightly less carbs to notice a difference in recovery.

As a recovery drink, Science in Sport REGO Rapid Recovery seems to be a popular choice, no doubt partly because of its lower price. Consider it more of an energy drink than a serious protein or carb drink, and it could make a good choice for you too. Finally, rest! This is the most important part of recovery, be it sleep or just giving your body the chance to recover. Not all of us have the luxury of the pros to rest all day after a tough session, but short bouts of focussed rest will still help. Power naps if you’re able to do them can be beneficial, also yoga or mindfulness training. But the best by far is a good night’s sleep. It beats any massage gun, massage session or other recovery tool, and when combined with proper nutrition and hydration is an unbeatable combo.

No matter what triathlon distance you’re competing in, don't let all your hard work in training go to waste with a poor nutritional strategy on race day. REGO Rapid Recovery contains high quality protein with a complete amino acid profile enhanced by the addition of 2g of Leucine. A vitamin and mineral profile has also been included to support the recovery process by contributing to normal muscle function and protein synthesis Its carb and protein ratio is smaller than recommended (some people advise a 4:1 ratio, at the very least a 2:1 ratio), so does it actually work? Let’s investigate and see:

Way too many people still try to get by with doing nothing after a long ride. Maybe they will get something to eat at some point, or they will sip some water.

Stupid piles of money to trip over…Your approach to cycling nutrition is one of the essential areas to focus on to ensure you reap the positive adaptations from training.

This means less pain in our legs, and greater muscle development post training, especially those wanting to build greater muscle mass. Ideally, we want between 20-30 grams of protein, as more than that has been found to be surplus to requirements.Milk contains a blend of casein and whey, which have amino acids in a pattern similar to muscle protein. Milk is quite a dilute recovery drink, in that 100ml provides just 1.7g of protein and 4.5 of carbohydrate. But, the advantage is that (skimmed milk) makes it easy on the stomach making it less likely to cause stomach bloating or stress. ( benefits of milk at Bike Radar) Milk also has many micro-nutrients that are helpful. It includes 22-grams of high-quality carbs to compliment 20-grams of protein, and add to that a mix of vitamins and minerals to replace what you just sweated out, and you’re on your way to doing it all over again tomorrow. SIS Rego Rapid Recovery Benefits Supports Recovery Whether you’re a gym rat, runner, cyclist, swimmer, field athlete, or anyone else who enjoys intense workouts, it’s likely you’re already aware of your post-workout need to recover. This means that along with rest, sleep, and active recovery, you need to get your muscles the proteins, glucose, vitamins, and minerals they need to rebuild and flush away toxins. You’re probably also aware that the best time to get recovery nutrition into your system is immediately after your workout, and preferably in liquid form for speedy uptake. When we exercise – especially at high intensity or after 90 minutes – unless we take on additional carbohydrate fuelling during the ride, we will deplete our muscle glycogen stores. Replenishing these stores ensures that we are able to complete strenuous training the next day, without our performance being impaired.
