The point of the recovery nutrition is to replace muscle glycogen and give you a bit of protein to spur recovery. The research shows that 250-300 calories is the right amount, so by combining the cytomax and endurox you're actually a bit over that.
Right, and I got lazy "setting up" questions anyway.

Again, what I am actually interested in trying, is using a LOT MORE sports nutrition products. In the scenario I was trying to describe, I came home from a workout that was un-fueled and intense. Typically, I hit several bottle of Cytomax for 30-40 minutes because I've lost anywhere from 4-8 pounds. Then, I start sipping on Endurox for another hour after stretching and showering.

So what I'm really talking about, is dribbling-in a 1000+ calories of "sports products" across 2 to 3 hours. (and 64 oz of fluids)

Since yesterday was the first time I've tried this, pure "sports drink" recovery method, I have today to "test" for my sense of recovery.............
