Consuming a proper amount of carbonhydrate and protein after exercise is essential. If you're not able to eat within 45 minutes of working out, it's important to not go much longer than 2 hours before eating a meal. To help your muscles recover and to replace their glycogen stores, eat a meal that contains both carbohydrates and protein within two hours of your exercise session if possible. There are some good post work-out food which you could try out.
