What to eat post workout?

As per recommendation ... Amino acids should be consumed post workout to increase muscle protein synthesis.

Around 6 to 40 grams of essential amino acids should be consumed post workout depending on the fitness level of the athlete.

Around 20 grams of fast carbs should also be ingested just after a workout .

Carbohydrate inclusion promotes glycogen resynthesis while essential amino acids promote muscle protein resynthesis.

Amino Acid consumption should happen immediately or within 3 hours post workout.

Fats may lead to slowing down the rate at which the above nutrients are absorbed and hence may be avoided during this window.

Addition of Creatine ( 0.1 grams per kilogram body weight per day ) to the post workout carbohydrate + amino acid drink gives even better recovery and results.
