Evidence strongly suggests that the acquisition of muscle protein is a result of the
workout stimulus PLUS the proper nutrition during the workout and more importantly
during the 24 hours immediately after the workout.
As a result of this evidence, it is critical that you begin to either: improve, refine or
continue the use of proper nutritional recovery strategies.
General Recommendations
Mix 0.8 g/kg body mass of carbohydrates with 0.4 g/kg body mass of protein in 1 L of
water pre-workout. Drink this throughout your workout. For example Sports drink and
whey protein.
Mix 0.8 g/kg body mass of carbohydrates with 0.4 g/kg body mass of protein in 1 L of
water post-workout. Drink this after your workout. A good mix is Gatorade and whey
protein.
Have 2-3 tbsp of flax oil or a high quality fish oil throughout the day. Essential fatty acids
are very important for your health and recovery.

Birchers Muesli
Essentially this is a Oat based Muesli with nuts and
dried fruit added to it (Swiss German in origin). It is
superb in summer or winter and is best soaked
overnight to increase the moisture content of the
meal and predigest some of the grains.
Therefore make a big batch and soak enough for
yourself overnight or alternatively pour hot water
over the individual serves in the morning, cover with
a plate for 5 - 10 mins (i.e. while you are in the
shower, then stir thru Yoghurt, fruit etc).
Ingredientsi.e. you can either extend a commercially pre-packaged Birchers, or make
it from scratch, agood way to save money and eat he perfect breakfast cereal.
- In you cereal bowl add enough for Bfast the following morning, cover with water
(optional to add some Apple Juice even 100 mls)
- grated apple - also optional

Simply combine all ingredients together,, ensure to drizzle the lemon juice, & sweet
chilli sauce then season with salt and pepper to your taste.
Many variations possible. Just think about different protein sources eg. could use
boiled eggs, grilled chicken, tuna, turkey etc. I do a similar meal often for my lunch
here at Lee Valley, add some more flavor by lightly frying (in minimal oil) a red onion
with a finely chopped Chorizo sausage
