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.............
Doing an "intense" workout without proper fueling doesn't sound very smart. Nor does drinking 1000+ calories of over-priced, over-hyped "sports products" afterwards.
BTW - if your weight was really down by 4-8 lbs, that's another illustration of ignorance. Allowing your body to get that dehydrated won't do you any good.
