You finished the HYROX session. Now comes the part that actually helps you get better from it.
Recovery nutrition is about more than just getting protein in. After a hard session, your body needs carbohydrate to replenish glycogen, protein to support muscle repair and adaptation, and fluids/electrolytes to replace what you've lost through sweat.
And no, you don't need to have a protein shake within 30 seconds of putting your weights done.
The bigger picture is making sure you're consistently eating enough across the day, and giving your body the building blocks it needs after demanding training.
Save this for your next HYROX session and send it to your training partner.
