Product Information

SiS REGO Rapid Recovery contains soy protein, which has a complete amino acid profile to which we have added 2g of leucine to support muscle protein synthesis and rebuild In his guidance on protein for cyclists, sports dietician Alan McCubbin on Cycling Tips recommends between 20-30g of animal-based protein after a workout, so the protein in SiS REGO Rapid Recovery is on the lighter side, but potentially effective. Leucine As we all know, the workout part is only the beginning, and once you’ve “torn it down,” it’s then time to rebuild it. This means giving your muscles and energy production what they need to return to full strength ASAP so that you can start the process all over again.

Pretty fairly priced and readily available, there are a lot of imitators trying to offer virtually the same thing. What Nuun has been able to pull off as a company is pretty remarkable, and they are constantly making adjustments and coming out with new flavors to keep customers satisfied. Science in Sport REGO Rapid Recovery also includes a full range of vitamins and minerals, though very few of them reach the recommended daily amount. Some, such as iodine, iron, vitamin B12 and potassium, only just reach 30-35%. Even though people use it for a bunch of different options, there are quite a few people who will use it as a recovery drink that works for them. Soy protein is lactose-free, which is useful for those people allergic to it. (Note too that whey protein isolate also removes lactose). However, cyclists love that there is so much included, and they do not have to feel like they are spending a ton of money overall for the value.

Final Thoughts on Cycling Recovery Drinks

What are the best post cycling recovery drinks available on the market today? Whether a person is purchasing something that is already created, or coming up with their own concoction, it makes sense to be smart about recovery. With different types of rides out there, it is easy to find something that works for any situation. 1. Nuun Hydration Electrolyte Tablets Nuun Hydration Electrolyte Tablets They claim SIS Rego Rapid Recovery will replenish your glycogen stores post-exercise, and it does. It also helps speed recovery, which they say it will, and…well, it’s a simple mixture of protein and sugars meant to replace energy and protein in your system. Seriously, there’s only so much to it, and it does what SIS says it will, so good enough. Way too many people still try to get by with doing nothing after a long ride. Maybe they will get something to eat at some point, or they will sip some water.

Fructose: Fructose is the other key carbohydrate included here, and it’s one that we’re not particularly fond of. The body doesn’t use fructose well, and it can’t become muscle glycogen like dextrose, our preferred carb. It cannot be absorbed straight into the blood stream (dextrose can) but first has to travel to the liver to be changed into glucose which is then turned into glycogen and stored by the liver to be released whenever the liver thinks it is needed to maintain blood glucose. As such, it does nothing to replace lost glycogen in the muscles, making it a pretty pointless post-workout choice. Hydration supplements are ideal pre workout or throughout your workout. It is also very important to hydrate yourself after a workout. What makes GU a little bit different from others is that it has a primary focus on sodium. It is the main electrolyte that is lost in sweat, and it is crucial to replace that to fight off dehydration.Satiety after exercise again was difficult to measure exactly, but does give an indication of whether the drink consumed adequate levels of carbs and protein for straight after exercise. Some were more successful than others, and some would work well to complement meals rather than be outright meal replacements. Additional leucine is welcome and 2g is certainly more than PhD Recovery 2:1’s 0.48g, but Men’s Health does recommend 3g of Leucine for optimum repair, so this is slightly below that.

A bonus point for High5 is the option to get the product batch tested, which helps to put your mind at ease that there isn’t contamination with any banned products that would fail a doping test. Although most of us won’t get tested, it is good to know what you are taking is ‘clean’. For the purpose, yes, Rego does indeed work. But you know what works just as well and doesn’t cost the arm-and-a-leg that Rego does? Chocolate milk. It delivers sugars, easily absorbable proteins, and even some replenishing fats to go along with some key vitamins and minerals to replenish and refuel you. Torq’s recovery drink is very different to most on this list, in that it contains a huge amount of carbs. The price per serving is high, but the recovery drink you get is near enough a meal replacement which – for people having just finished a race or short on time – might actually be ideal.The smaller sachets don’t really offer either enough protein or carbs for recovery from a hard session. The ratio is good, but the total content is low. To get enough protein, you do need the full two-sachet dose – but that will constitute a meal replacement for most people, with around 340kCal of energy content. But we realize that not everyone can drink milk, and there are those who prefer a vegetarian option as well. Leucine is an amino acid which is known to switch on the signalling for muscle protein synthesis, amplifying the effect Instead of being able to ride every single day, it becomes that much more of a struggle. What type of schedule should a person follow after a tough cycling ride? This shortfall is met by using your glycogen stores, which must be replenished post exercise so you are able to perform well in your next session
