Post Workout Nutrition

While we espouse the benefits of a Paleolithic diet here, we don’t really get into the topic of post workout nutrition except with some of our competitive athletes. In general, we recommend a 2-1 ratio of carbohydrate to protein, with no fat. A couple of people are using yams or applesauce combined with eggs/chicken/tuna to satisfy their requirements.

Robb Wolf has a great post up at his blog about the whole post workout nutrition thing. He goes goes over many of the details with high carb vs low carb PWO nutrition. It might not be a good start if you are new to PWO nutrition, but its a great read if you are really trying to tweak things PWO.
