right, about recovery, i've got a list of stuf you can do to aid recovery but they all tend to point out that you need to eat after a workout if you are knackered

there is also a guide to what proportions to eat but you need to eat 1 gram of protein for every lb of bodyweight and i think they mentienod 3 or 4 grams of carbs for every lb of bodywieght but i can't confirm this until i get back home tomorrow

the other thing that seems to be a bit of a talking point is soya products

there have been studies that have claimed they are not as good for you as some might believe but reports tend to be biased ebcause one guy who was doing the test was coming off anabolic steroids and skewed the figures, if you are taking whey products and you replace 50% of them with a soya product you will apparenty see no loss of the whey but the benifits of the soya

i'm sure there is a dedicated fitness room with all this info in it, you may be better of posting in there for what specific products work with what
