How should you refuel your body after exercise? We seem to be surrounded by commercial recovery foods and fluids. These recovery foods and fluids offer a combination of carbs and protein, but are they the best for exercise recovery nutrition?
If you are an athlete who exercises one or two times a day to the point of total exhaustion, you most definitely need to focus upon adequate recovery nutrition. A few examples of this type of an exerciser would be swimmers preparing for competition or even high school males and females preparing for any type of sport competition.
For those athletes who need to focus upon an adequate recovery nutrition plan, you will be better off planning in advance the right foods and fluids to replace calories, carbohydrates, protein, fluids and sodium. Your best choices are probably not a commercially prepared plan.

Part 2 of A collection of the Philosophical thoughts of the late Mas Oyama, founder of Kyokushin Karate Obviously this is the style of Karate that I study, but if you look closely at many of these philosphies you'll see some common themes related to Personal Development. "One must try everyday to expand one's limits."
"Behind each triumph are new peaks to be conquered."
"Until the day I die, I never want to be separated from my dogi; I never want to cease my training efforts in the dojo."
"The fastest way to attain courage is to follow the chosen Way and be willing to abandon life itself for the sake of justice."
"If you have confidence in your own words, aspirations, thoughts, and actions and do your very best, you will have no need to regret the outcome of what you do. Fear and trembling are lot of the person who, while stinting effort, hopes that everything will come out precisely as he wants."
