Recovery and Endurance Supplements
Getting better energy levels and dropping the time it takes to recuperate after playing sport and working out can have beneficial effects on your performance. We frequently review what supplements are on the market and only direct you to trusted sellers. Below we have selected our current favourites which we have tested and which will help improve your recovery and endurance while playing sport.
Protein
What it does:
Protein is the dominant product in all areas of sports nutrition. After workout it is important that you kick start muscle recovery by taking in a protein shake. It is so important we have created a page where we have recommended the best proteins on the market
Recovery Shake - Top Pick
Product: PHD Recovery 2:1 1.2kg
What it does: PhD Nutrition's Recovery 2:1 contains a precision 2:1 ratio of fast and slow acting carbohydrates and protein to produce the perfect post exercise recovery drink. It also delivers a big dose of creatine along with Glutamine and other amino acids.
Review: PhD Recovery 2:1 contains basically four post workout essentials in one shake....protein, carbohydrates, creatine and glutamine. We love it simply for the convenience of making up one shake rather than adding several components to our shaker. Several flavours are available but we prefer the orange barley. If you were to buy just one product for after your sport or weights session it should be PhD Recovery 2:1
Price: £20.99 Rpp £27.99
Energy Bar - Top Pick: Maxifuel's Viper Boost Bar
Product: Maxifuel's Viper Boost Bars

Energy Drink - Reflex: The Edge
Sports Drink - Top Pick
Product: Reflex The Edge 1.5kg
What it does: Reflext The Edge delivers electrolytes and carbs to give your body the energy it needs during your workout.
Review: If you want a sports drink to help give you energy and performance during sporting activity then FoodForFitness recommend Reflex The Edge. Firstly, it is considerably cheaper than buying ready-made sports drinks from a machine. Secondly, it mixes well and thirdly, it tastes pretty good. It is important to take a drink like this during sport as it helps put key nutrients back into your system which you have lost through sweating.
