5.0 out of 5 stars The only thing I drink after a hard workout!, May 17, 2006

This review is from: Endurox R4-Lemon Lime - 4.56 lb - Powder (Health and Beauty)

I started using this product three years ago when I first started training to do marathons. I was running 4 out 7 days a week so I wanted something that would help me bounce back. Endurox definitely worked for me! One of the most noticeable effects was a drastic reduction in soreness the next day. As I understand the science, your sensitivity to insulin is greatest after a hard, glycogen-depleting workout (within 15 minutes of completion). Ingesting a combination of carbs and protein immediately after working out will cause insulin to push the carbs and ammino acids into the muscle to replenish glycogen stores and to power muscle tissue repair. It seems to work for me...I'm always ready to come back the next day for more punishment. I've only tried the Lemon-Lime flavor, so I can only offer my opinion for that particular flavor. The first time I tried it, I used tap temperature water and I thought it was almost too sweet. Using very cold water made it much more palatable. In time I came to really crave the flavor, especially after an 18 mile run. The consistency is definitely full bodied and filling, but not nearly as thick as a protein shake. Please note that this is strictly a recovery drink and should not be taken before or during exercise.

This review is from: Endurox R4-Lemon Lime - 4.56 lb - Powder (Health and Beauty)

I don't usually advocate product because everybody reacts so differently to gels and bars etc., but Endurox really helped me recover after periods of 2-3+ hour workouts. I was having a problem of not being able to eat within the first 30 minutes following a workout. The result was that I lost my window to refuel and then the rest of the day was miserable. Endurox is easy on the stomach and takes away any nausea the you may otherwise get from food. It has been a strong fuel source and really speeds recovery!

5.0 out of 5 stars My favorite recovery drink., October 3, 2007

This review is from: Pacific Health Endurox R4 (Misc.)

I've tried a variety of recovery drinks out there and I have to say, this one is the best tasting hands down.

After a hard workout, it's very important to consume carbohydrates and proteins to help repair muscle and replace glycogen depleted during the workout. Endurox takes care of this with the ratio recommended by experts and tastes good. For me, taste is really the most important thing in choosing a recovery drink (because they all do pretty much the same thing).

Just be aware that recovery drinks tend to have a lot of calories (by necessity) so if you aren't going long or hard, you probably don't need a recovery drink. However, for those of us of the slow-twitch cult (marathoners or long distance triathletes) it's a must.

Try it blended with some banana and ice - it makes a really delicious shake. I enjoy mine while soaking in a ice bath!
