Following an intense training session or competition, the body's carbohydrate stores in the muscles and liver become depleted and must be replenished. Simultaneously, the body requires amino acids in order to achieve muscle recovery through protein synthesis. The ability to build new proteins following training ("training adaptation") largely determines the potential gains from training. To replenish the body's carbohydrate stores, a combination of glucose and fructose (such as table sugar) restores muscle glycogen just as effectively as glucose alone. Interestingly, this combination of sugars also replenishes liver glycogen more quickly and reduces gastrointestinal issues. This is why the "6D Recovery Shake" contains a mix of maltodextrin, sucrose, and fructose, instead of just glucose and/or maltodextrin. Additionally, the inclusion of ± 30g (= 0.4g / kg of body weight) of whey protein (= fast-digesting protein) with these carbohydrates further accelerates muscle glycogen resynthesis. This
