"Eat after your workout. To help your muscles recover and to replace their glycogen stores, eat a meal that contains both protein and carbohydrates within two hours of your exercise session if possible. Women, in particular, may need protein after resistance training."

It looks like a shake that has protein and carbs and little to no fat would be ideal.0 -
I generally have a glass of skim chocolate milk. It's like a reward for having worked out.0
