Muscle recovery in the Milky Way....

[SteveA]

There's been a fair amount of research into muscle recovery after a good work out and drinking milk was found to be one of the best....

 

There was something on TV a while ago where they tested two Rugby teams. After the game one side had milk and the other had some kind of Sports drink.

 

Drinking the milk resulted in a 50% shorter muscle recovery time when compared with the sports drink.

 

Arb work can be quite demanding physically so I'm wondering if anyone else likes a glass of white stuff, or anything else?

 

cheers, steve

I get in from work do my little bit of training and then have either goats milk or soya milk with a scoop of pea protein with either a whole banana or blueberries all slung in a liquidiser.

Still ache like hell but it tastes nice

Interesting. I think it takes about 12 hours (or something like that) for the milk to take good effect.

Would be interesting to find out if you ache a lot more by cutting the milk out (for a week).

If you fancy that challenge!

How can a glass of milk work better than anything else?....

 

Were any other blind tests conducted?.. maybe just being asked to drink milk after a match brought on a placebo effect..

 

Milk might be good for you, but is it any better than a glass of wine... or beer if you like that, to sooth aches and pains?...

 

I doubt it.... Placebo..

I already done that, hence I have the shake

Although I am currently knocking the pea protein out of the shake for a week to see if it really makes a difference.

It's most likely the protein in the milk, which is used in muscle repair.

No, they did proper medical tests.... not by just asking them how they felt.

Maybe the team that had the milk afterwards were only trying half as hard in the game?😉😉
