Many of the gym goers think what to do after workout, this is a important question that each one of us has. It has a very simple answer that is, after you finish your workout you have only three things left to do. These three things are as follows:
1-Regenerate your energy
Every time we workout or perform a physical activity, the stored energy is consumed and used to do the desired work. This energy is performed by the consumption of glucose molecules and then this glucose bank in the body diminishes. So, our main focus is to recover that glucose bank, it can be done by consuming several good fats and carbohydrates. As described in my previous article about the amount of carbohydrates you should take before and after workout, you can easily calculate your total carbs quantity which is to be consumed.
2-Increase protein synthesis in body
When talking about the workout, everyone has one thing that comes to their mind, that while working out our protein level in the body derceases. But, this is not what happens. It's not the protein level that is been decreased but the process of protein synthesis by which muscles are made is been slowed down. So, another thing to do after workout is regaining the level of protein synthesis which you were having before the workout.
3-Repairing the muscle breakdown
In any workout your body muscles are being used. They are been pressurised, torn, stressed and after all this some of the muscle tissues get damaged. So to rebuild these muscle tissues you should have enough protein and other essential nutrients in your body that will support and build your muscles more bigger. After finishing your workout i would recommend you to have whey protein as it is the best immediate protein source and is digested very easily by the body. So, give your body exactly what it needs and LET IT GROW.
