R3load Athletic Line Post-workout protein-carbohydrate complex with extra ingredients Most intense exercise burn up a lot of carbohydrates and tear down muscle tissue, therefore efficient recovery requires reloading carbohydrates and protein or amino acids, as well as some other micronutrients such as electrolytes, and of course water.
