Post Workout Nutrition - helping you reach your potential

I read a great analogy of the importance of your post workout nutrition.  John Berardi talks of exercise as remodeling a home.  True...think about it.  You are exercising to make changes...physical changes.  Well, as a contractor would come in and break down some walls in your house, exercise does the same thing to your muscles.  As with exercise and home repair, its important to complete the remodeling, how could he then build new walls and make those changes without new building materials?  Wait for it...

Post workout nutrition is the building material needed to complete the changes that the contractor wants to make.  You have to remember to feed those hungry muscles...especially after exercise during your "window of oppurtunity" to make major improvements.

So after your workout, remember to make a post workout shake to bring all of those new building materials to the body.
