Recover Elite Is A Delicious, All-In-One Recovery Drink For Endurance Athletes
Get ready to come back stronger and faster after every training session. Recover Elite is scientifically engineered to refuel and repair exhausted muscle so that you can quickly recover from your most intense training sessions and do it all over again tomorrow.
Recover Elite is sweetened with Stevia, so it contains no aspartame, sucralose, saccharin, xylitol, or acesulfame-K.
Hard training is essential to increasing performance, breaking personal records, and experiencing the kind of results you expect from a life dedicated to proper diet and exercise. And, as important as hard training is, you can only train as effectively as you recover. In other words, while the focus tends to be on training, it’s key to place equal emphasis on your recovery. Your ability to set PRs, go faster, and train longer is directly tied to how effectively your muscles and nervous system have recovered from the previous training session.
Years of intensive scientific research have shown us that post-workout supplementation can play a pivotal role in supporting the body’s ability to recover quickly by replenishing glycogen, halting protein breakdown, enhancing protein synthesis, and more. Essentially, the more effectively you recover, the more frequently you’ll be able to train hard, thereby improving your endurance and stamina at a greater rate. This is precisely why Recover Elite was created — to be the most advanced, scientifically-backed, and effective recovery supplement for endurance athletes on the market!
Tri-Phasic Energy Blend
It is a well known scientific fact that carbs fuel elite endurance and elite performance.
Unfortunately, the vast majority of supplements use poor-quality, suboptimal sources of carbohydrates that can leave you feeling heavy and sluggish or, worse, with stomach and GI issues that cut your training or racing short of the finish line. We’ve addressed those issues (and more) with our tri-phasic energy blend containing:
- Dextrose
- Fructose
- Cluster Dextrin
Recover Elite includes three forms of carbohydrates. The truth is that the body can absorb only so much glucose (dextrose) at a time. However, research has shown that combining different carbohydrate sources (such as dextrose and fructose) can increase total exogenous carbohydrate availability, allowing for greater carbohydrate use, which supports better performance and recovery than consuming only glucose.
Fructose co-ingestion is also noted to accelerate post‐exercise liver glycogen repletion rates, which is desirable when athletes have a quick turnaround between training sessions (less than 24 hours between intense activities).
GI distress is a common complaint among athletes who take carbohydrate supplements. This is due to using poor-quality carbohydrates that are heavy on the stomach, and due to consuming too much in a given time frame. Combining fructose with glucose can lower gastrointestinal distress when you ingest relatively large amounts of carbohydrate (>1.2 g/kg/h) during post‐exercise recovery.
4:1 Carbohydrate-To-Protein Ratio
Carbohydrates are key to efficient recovery, but research has shown that for truly elite recovery, it’s beneficial to ingest protein alongside carbohydrates. Scientists have researched a number of carb-to-protein ratios over the years, but the most extensively studied is the 4:1 ratio.
Recover Elite contains 12 grams of whey protein isolate, plus 1.2 grams of L-leucine. This maintains the 4:1 carb-to-protein ratio supported by research while also supplying a full 2.5 grams of leucine, thereby fully stimulating the mTOR pathway to kick-start protein synthesis, ignite muscle recovery, and halt muscle breakdown.
When you’re looking to optimize recovery, every second counts. That’s part of the reason we included whey protein isolate. It contains minimal amounts of fat and lactose, thereby increasing the speed of digestion while reducing the risk of GI distress due to a high lactose concentration (which is prevalent in lower-quality, or cheaper, protein sources).
