After a workout, you want to eat some muscle building food containing both carbohydrates and protein. This is the one time of day when you benefit from eating fast-acting, easily digestible carbohydrates, such as white bread, instant rice, and baked potatoes.
Here is why: After exercise, your muscles are more sensitive to insulin. Insulin is the rapid-transit system for the protein and carbohydrates your muscles need for growth, repair, and fuel. The faster you digest the carbohydrates you eat, the faster your body can put them to use.
The best post exercise meal: Try a shake made with a meal-replacement powder containing protein and a fast-moving carbohydrate like maltodextrin. Or try the shake described in the section above.
