GU Roctane Protein Recovery Drink Mix is scientifically designed to jumpstart muscle repair, restore energy, and support full-body recovery after intense training or racing. It combines premium whey protein isolate, fast-absorbing dextrose carbohydrates, electrolytes, and conditionally essential amino acids like arginine and glutamine to optimize the post-exercise recovery window. With 250 calories per serving, this energy-dense drink mix replenishes glycogen stores, promotes protein synthesis, and helps reduce muscle protein breakdown for faster, more effective recovery.
Formulated with a smoother mixing carbohydrate base to eliminate clumping, this mix is ideal for athletes who demand performance from their recovery nutrition.
