CytoSport Cytomax Recovery, 2.2 lb

Product Description

Cytomax Recovery - Post workout, recovery process catalyst, meal replacement shake. Today's workout is only as good as yesterday's recovery. More and more of today's athletes/active lifestyle individuals are finding those time honored words to be as true today as they've ever been. Each and every muscle contraction triggers a metabolic cascade of events that if left unchecked causes the frustrating leveling off or plateauing of strength and performance. Complete recovery from one workout to the next by identifying and optimizing all relevant metabolic pathways is the key to improved performance no matter your sport or activity. Proper training and utilizing proper techniques can help raise these metabolic thresholds. The undisputed fact is that proper nutritional support and rapid, consistent, complete metabolic recovery is the key to sustained, improved performance. Since 1988, Cytomax exercise and recovery drinks have redefined modern, while your doing it, energy and electrolyte replenishment drinks. Elite athletes from virtually every sport have set World Records, won Olympic Gold Metals, Cy Young Awards and Tour de France victories, using Cytomax.

Recovery - Driven by Science
Cytomax Recovery is based on the same science that gave rise to patented Polylactate and Cytomax but is more protein and energy dense. After training or competing, or as time allows between events, when there is opportunity to restore liver and muscle glycogen and muscle protein, but when meals are hours away, then it's time for Cytomax Recovery. Supplying the energy for muscle contraction puts the tissue in a catabolic state. When the work is over, muscle is primed and ready to be triggered into an anabolic state. The trigger is dietary energy in the right forms, quickly supplying sustained energy and anabolic nutrients. As in Cytomax, Polylactate speeds energy into the system, and the unique blend of sugars and carbohydrates of graded complexities provide the energy and material to rebuild body glycogen and other carbohydrate reserves.

EvoPro Plus
As training and exercise set the scene to build muscle enzymes and proteins, Cytomax Recovery provides those building blocks of free amino acids and amino acid-packed whole proteins. This unique combination of indispensable amino acids from both whole source and free form aminos are thought to be the ideal way to maintain total nitrogen (protein) homeostasis.

Polylactate
The patented, preferred fuel of exercising muscle. Lactate is preferentially used by cardiac (heart) and respiratory (lung) tissue. Long used in Cytomax to promote energy supply, blood glucose homeostasis, pH buffering and muscle as well as liver glycogen storage during strenuous exercise. Calorie for calorie, lactate is 5-7 times more efficient than glucose at building liver glycogen. A sophisticated designer molecule that gives your body what it wants, when it needs it!

Anti-Oxidants
Vitamins A, C, E and Beta-Carotene protect against oxidative damage caused when free radicals form during periods of high exertion.

LeanLipids
Cytomax Recovery also contains LeanLipids, rich in medium chain triglycerides, lipid structures that are predominately burned as energy and not stored as fat, to impel energy restoration and electrolytes to continue repletion to those lost during activity. So, stage your workouts and nutrition, building from one session to the next. Ward off fatigue and improve performance during training and competition with Cytomax, then catapult recovery processes with Cytomax Recovery. In support of good health, this CytoSport product is trans fatty acid free.
