Customer Reviews

Over-priced upset stomach
Just as a preface to my review: The other reviews I've read here are all very positive, so I wanted to offer this bit of more negative information. So, I am seven weeks into P90X. The videos recommend this supplement after every workout. First, I do think there are nutritional benefits to using this recovery drink; however, I think they are overstated and not necessarily tied to this specific product. If you compare the protein and electrolyte content of the P90X Recovery drink to chocolate milk, you can see that they are pretty similar. Now, I'm not saying you should just chug chocolate milk after cardio or plyometrics, but it is one example of a much cheaper comparative product. Aside from the expensive cost ($60 for one month) of the P90X Recovery drink, I would also like to note that when I use the drink, I routinely suffer from an upset stomach (read: "killer diarrhea"). While this could just be me, I have spoken to other P90X participants who have similar digestive complaints. Aside from those two big drawbacks (it's over-priced and induces diarrhea), I do believe there are definite benefits to using this or other similar products. Also, it really does taste pretty good--like orange sherbet, and is a nice healthy treat after a hard workout.

Good Recovery Drink
I always get fed up reading other reviews that don't help me figure out if I want to buy a product or not, so I figured I'd write one on a product that works for me.

The P90X Results and Recovery shake is a good combination of after workout Protien, Creatine, and Amino-Acids. What does this mean? It means that it has all of the things that every extreme athelete is looking for after a solid workout.

I'm a health nut, and I was already a body builder before I started the P90X system. While my normal workouts were tough, they never really pushed me to the point of wanting to dry heave, but the P90X really allowed me to stretch my self. The first month I went with a standard mix of Creatine* + Protien a couple of times a day and mixed with fruit punch for my recovery drink, but I found that I really needed a lot of electrolyte replacement as well. I was feeling very sick (just completely exhausted) after my workouts and I had to drive over to the corner store to pickup a gatorade/powerade before I would start feeling good again. That really started to change my opinions about the need for a purchasing a recovery drink that focused on post workout recovery.

I purchased the P90X Results and Recovery formula during my second month of the P90X workouts and when I got exhausted it really made a huge difference in the 20 minutes directly after the workout. It already has the Creatine, Protien, and electrolytes all ready to go for the second your done.

Now for the important questions... Was it worth buying? It depends. If you are just doing the workouts and getting slightly winded but not really pushing yourself to an extreme state of fatigue, you can get away without using a recovery drink. If you are pushing yourself as hard as you can, to the point of complete exhaustion then a recovery drink directly after a workout is mandetory, and this one works very effectively. I'm starting my third rotation of P90X and I use this after all of the really intense workouts, and my normal protien + fruit punch for all the other workouts. One tub usually lasts me about 2 months.

I gave it 4/5 stars because it does cost a little more, and you can get other brands that seem to do as well. You could use a creatine/protien blend and a good sports drink after every workout for the same results, although the over all price of doing that would probably be a little bit more than just getting a recovery drink that is specific for post workout recovery.

*Creatine Monohydrate is a dietary supplement that hydrates your muscles and aids in recovery. It is used by a large majority of athletes and body builders to aid in increasing how far you can push yourself in workout sets and minimizing the time between workouts. It is generally recommended to use it for 3 months and then to take a 2-3 month break.

** Several reviews were saying you get the same out of Chocolate Milk... You can't, period. There are specific suppliments in a recovery drink that are health industry known for helping in recovery. Ie.. Creatine, L-Arginine, and L-Glutamine. You can get all of these from other recovery drinks. But chocolate milk won't do it, even if it has similar calories to a recovery drink. It's not about the calories/fat/sugar, it's about everything else.

Surprisingly delicious!
As the previous reviewer mentioned, this is the part of the workout I look forward to! The drink is very tasty! I noticed it has a good portion of sugar in it, but after doing some research I found that the types of sugars it provides are fantastic for your body after a good cardio workout. (Maybe I'd have already known that if I actually read the P90-X nutrition book like a good little excerciser)

I used the P90-X workout program for awhile without a recovery drink and other protein drinks, but I found that I was constantly hungry. Turns out the foods I normally eat (though healthy by most means) weren't providing my body with the nutrients it was craving. After purchasing this recovery drink for after my cardio workouts and a protein drink for other times of the day, I became less hungry in general and have accelerated the decline in my body fat percentage! I'm sure you might be able to put together some other great recovery drinks by buying each supplement and mixing, but I don't have the time, space, or care to do that. This recovery drink has been wonderful for me so far.
