Recovery drinks for trail running and ultra running

After a long trail run or tough training, recovery begins. Recovery drinks are specially developed to help your body recover quickly after exertion. They usually combine carbohydrates and proteins, whereby both your energy reserves are replenished and your muscles are helped with recovery.

During prolonged exertion, the glycogen stores in your muscles become depleted. Carbohydrates in a recovery drink help rebuild these reserves, while proteins contribute to the repair and building of muscle tissue.

Many recovery drinks use a ratio of approximately 2:1 to 4:1 carbohydrates to protein, because this combination is effective for muscle recovery and replenishing energy after exercise.

Why recovery drinks are popular among trail runners

Recovery drinks are especially useful because they:

• be quickly absorbed by the body

• are easy to drink immediately after a run

• both recovery as energy replenishment to support

• be compact to take to training or matches

For trail runners and ultra-runners, they are especially useful after:

• long runs

• strenuous mountain training

• ultra races

• back-to-back training days

By consuming protein and carbohydrates quickly after your run, you give your body the best chance to recover and be ready for the next training session.
