You've finished your workout, showered, and continued to hydrate your body; all the right actions to take after an intense workout. Before you reach for that sugary sports bottle, think about grabbing a protein drink instead. It has been shown in studies that having a protein drink after a workout can be beneficial for ones muscle growth. People who drank protein-rich drinks after exercising showed to experience an increase in larger muscle fibers and whole body lean mass. The consumption of drinks rich in protein can not only maintain ones exercise performance, but can also reduce fatigue, and help with muscle recovery. Maybe after your next workout grab a protein drink and see how you feel. =]
