3. Post-Workout Recovery Treats
Fuel up within 30–60 minutes after exercising with these three snack ideas that combine carbs, protein, and electrolytes to support recovery.
-
Tropical Recovery Popsicles
Blend Ellexir's Watermelon Gummy Post-Workout Recovery powder with coconut water, Greek yogurt, and frozen mango chunks. Pour the mixture into popsicle molds and freeze. These popsicles offer a refreshing way to replenish energy and aid muscle repair. Nutrition expert Chrissy Carroll, RD, emphasizes:"After a tough workout, it's best to eat a snack within 30-60 minutes that contains both carbohydrate and protein. Protein starts the muscle repair and recovery process, while carbohydrate helps restock those energy stores that were used during your sweat sesh."
-
High-Protein Recovery Bites
Combine Ellexir's Pure Hydration powder (Passion Fruit) with whey protein, oats, honey, and peanut butter to create no-bake protein balls. Adapted from Featherstone Nutrition's recipe, these bites deliver 10g of protein per serving, along with electrolytes to help prevent muscle cramps. -
Cherry-Chocolate Recovery Shake
Blend Ellexir's Post-Workout Recovery powder with chocolate milk, tart cherry juice, and Greek yogurt. This shake combines quick-digesting carbs, protein, and electrolytes. As ReBecca McConville, RD, explains:"Milk has quick-absorbing carbs, a blend of proteins such as whey and casein, fluid, and electrolytes."
Research highlights the benefits of electrolyte-enriched recovery drinks, showing a 23% reduction in muscle cramps and 15% faster recovery times compared to plain water [NISM, 2024].
