High Protein Post Workout Snacks

We’ve all heard that saying food is fuel, and what you refuel your body with post workout plays a big part in both your recovery and your results. The perfect post workout snack should contain a combination of protein and carbohydrates to restore the glycogen that your muscles just depleted during your workout. The ideal snacking window is within 30-60 minutes of completing your workout.
