Post Ride Recovery Shakes : THE WINDOW OF OPPORTUNITY
At CHS we know the importance of nutrition. We provide post ride protein shakes daily to enable you to recovery quickly and maximise your training here.
As soon as you get off the bike there is a protein shake waiting for you, on the house !
Some refer to this workout and post-workout phenomenon as “the window of opportunity”.
During this window, your muscles are primed to accept nutrients that can stimulate muscle repair, muscle growth, and muscle strength.
This window opens immediately after your workout and starts to close pretty quickly. Research suggests that while protein synthesis persists for at least 48 hours after exercise, it’s most important to get postworkout nutrition immediately, and within 2 hours afterwards.
If you feed your body properly while this window is open, you’ll get the benefits.
If you don’t provide adequate post exercise nutrition fast enough — even if you delay by only a couple of hours — you decrease muscle glycogen storage and protein synthesis.
As soon as get off the bike you should be consuming some post workout nutrition.
