Anyone on here using any form of sports drinks to increase stamina and recovery time from exercise?
If so have you noticed any difference and what do you recommend
Everyone is different so there isn't really a simple answer, as a standard, aim to have about 50g carbs anywhere between 5-30 mins before training and the same 45-60 mins after training to replace glycogen losses.

If your not cutting then you could add some malto/dextrine to your post workout protein shake (usually 2:1) and just see how you feel and adjust accordingly.
