What sort of drinks do people use after a hard session? I'm just finishing off my chocolate rego bumper pack adn the taste prevents me buying it again.:eek:

So what shall I try next?

Slimfast shakes aren't too bad for after a session. Although not so hot after a 3 hr training run. (You could take 2)

soya milk / hot choc, & toast with marmite / jam / peanut butter (not all at once!)

I got some chocolate-flavour protein powder-type thing from myprotein.co.uk. 28g of protein per 30g of dry product. I take 3 spoonfuls, bung in mixer with milk, a banana and some honey, and voila!

Rego chocolate isn't great. Had better luck with the Strawberry. I rate the SIS. As an alternative play around with the High 5 Vanilla Protein recovery - mix with skimmed milk and put in fresh banana and/or strawberries to make a smoothy. Lovely.

High 5 vanilla sounds good - I must try that.

I must be one of the few who actually like rego chocolate.

Another vote for myprotien.co.uk. Great site and cheap (comparetively) too

SiS electrolyte drink is great and then sit down and have a quick meal,Tuna sarnie Muller Rice does me

The best protein powder I found was Maxi-Muscles line Promax easy to mix and doesnt taste of chemicals

Rego strawberry.

Rego Banana for me. I've heard other bad reports about the chocolate.
