RecoverMax

Why do you need RECOVER MAX?:

The nutrient requirement in athletes is highest immediately after intense and prolonged physical activity. The 30 - 45 minute window after training or events is a crucial time during which the body races to recover as quickly as possible. The body’s evolutionary instinct to immediately replace muscle glycogen (our first and main source of energy) means that it will use whatever nutrients are available, including amino acids present in muscle tissue, resulting in muscle wastage. By rapidly supplying carbohydrates to replace glycogen, as well as fast acting protein to replace amino acids, the body recovers quickly, without breaking down existing muscle tissue for amino acids.

USN’S Recover Max is precisely formulated as an elite post-training/event recovery drink and/or a comprehensive energy, amino acid and electrolyte
replacement drink to use during long periods of intense physical activity such a multi-day sport events, Ironman events, marathons etc. USN’s Recover Max is also valuable in enhancing recovery from shorter-duration, high-intensity activities like sprinting, rugby, power-lifting, weight-lifting etc. The carbohydrates consist of an ideal ratio of fast-acting long-chain glucose polymers (incl. high molecular weight Waxy Maize Starch) and simple sugars for rapid energy replacement. RECOVER MAX has been formulated to form an isotonic drink (if prepared correctly), which promotes optimal nutrient absorption.

Protein is supplied in the form of premium whey protein, which has the highest bioavailability, absorption rate and retention of all protein sources.RECOVER MAX is a light, refreshing drink, and is available in three delicious flavours.

Directions for use:

• Mix 4 rounded scoops or 1 sachet (95g) with 400-500ml of cold water ƒƒ ater (vary the amount of water to achieve your desired

• Drink within 30 minutes following an event or long training session.
• In case of an endurance event exceeding 4 hours, have a second serving 1 hour after the event.

Core benefits of Recover Max:

• Optimum muscle recovery following exercise.
• Rapid electrolyte, glycogen and amino acid replacement.
• Reduces lactic acid level and muscle soreness.
• Helps reduce muscle cramping and stiffness.
• Increases the muscle recovery rate between training sessions.
• Anti-catabolic amino acids to prevent muscle breakdown during intensive exercise.

Supplements to combine with:

• USN L-Glutamine – add a teaspoon to your Recover Max drink.
• USN Enduro Sport – for carbo-loading before an event.
• USN Cramp Block – to further prevent cramping during a race or training session.
• USN VO2 Max – load with this in the 3 days before a tough race to ‘turbo-boost’ your performance.
• USN Cytopower HP – for optimal energy during an event or long training session.

Who should use it:

Endurance athletes, team sport players and anyone requiring rapid recovery from other intense physical activities.
