Common questions

Recovery questions

• Carb-to-protein ratio for recovery — what works?

  The most-cited research range for endurance recovery is roughly 3:1 or 4:1 carbs to protein within 30 to 60 minutes of finishing a hard session. Strength athletes often run closer to 1:1 or 2:1. Each PDP lists grams of each macro per serving so you can match the product to the session.

• Whey or plant protein?

  Whey has the most complete amino acid profile per gram. Plant blends (pea-rice or pea-hemp) reach a similar profile with thoughtful blending and slightly more grams. Lactose intolerance, allergy, or dietary preference often decides; both options ship.

• Do I need recovery on rest days?

  Recovery products are most useful in the post-workout window after hard sessions. On true rest days, regular meals usually do the same job. Spending money on a daily recovery shake when you've trained easy or rested is rarely the highest-leverage move.
