Water, water, and fruit. That’s all you need to recover.

Recover? That’s what beer is for. Water and/or gatorade before, beer after. YUM!

You need salts and electrolytes. It is actually possible to die from too much water, as it will flush your salts out of your system!

The potassium from bananas can be good, too. There's something good about apples too, I forget what's in them that helps.

Also, getting a low-fat source of protein, like non-fat cottege cheese, immediately after a workout is great for rebuilding torn-up muscles quickly.
