Why protein? To repair muscle fibers that break when performing physical activity, since every time we train, those microfibers are broken due to the effort.

 

This you need!

Ideally, take a protein (20 grams approx) with a low glycemic index carbohydrate. An example can be a protein shake with apple, or even with kiwi or pear, a little vegetable milk would not hurt.

The ideal is the same grammage of proteins (20 gr) and a carbohydrate of medium glycemic index. How would you like a peanut butter sandwich? Ideal post work out medium.
