I've read numerous articles and watched several videos which suggest that because your muscles glycogen stores are depleted after exercising, your body needs the carbs to rebuild these stores (which if done properly will created increased storage capability) and the protein to rebuild muscles that where 'consumed' during anaerobic exercise (i.e. climbing & sprinting).
It seems that no matter what you hear about sports nutrition, there's always a group who will say the opposite... How much more confusing can this stuff be?
