As we go through
training cycles and intense workouts, often times I am asked what
my swimmers are drinking or how they are recovering after workouts.
I tell people that during the day, my athletes are instructed
to drink lots of water (with little to no variation). During
workouts, they are to have a sports drink of some sort, and then
follow that up quickly with a good recovery meal 20-30 minutes
after they finish.
Often times, the
athletes don't get to eat inside that window...or just eat the
wrong foods. And then parents usually ask, so which "sports
drink" are they to use while working out? Due to the success
and accomplishments of our team, we have been able to form an
agreement with PureSport that both benefits our swimmers and team.
We are going to recommend that our athletes use the PureSport
Workout drink during training. For all athletes that have
reached puberty, we encourage considering the PureSport recovery
drink to optimize the recovery process and timing.
PureSport Workout is designed to deliver maximum
nutrition before and during strenuous athletic activity.
PureSport Recovery is
designed to help the body bounce back more efficiently after
strenuous activity. Undeniably, these elements are very
important to the sport of swimming! From Michael Phelps, to
