I am currently 10 weeks postpartum and just started back at the gym. Does anyone know of a pre-workout and/or recovery I can take while breastfeeding? I'm so sore and really need an extra boost!

    Chocolate milk is a good recovery drink. Here's a blurb taken from builtwithchocolatemilk.com

    LOWFAT CHOCOLATE MILK:
    • is a natural source of high-quality protein to build lean muscle
    • contains the right mix of protein and carbs scientifically shown to refuel exhausted muscles and help return to peak potential
    • provides fluids and electrolytes – like calcium, potassium, magnesium and sodium – to rehydrate and help replenish critical nutrients lost in sweat

    I go for a banana pre-workout.
