Spring Into Better Shape

How to Better Recover from Your Workout
With Spring just around the corner, getting and staying in our best shape is on many of our minds.
However, staying fit has as much to do with recovery from our workouts as it does the time spent exercising.
A big part of recovery has to do with the foods and beverages you consume pre- and post workout as well as throughout the day.
Choosing snacks and drinks with functional ingredients can aid in muscle and joint recovery, boost energy levels, maximize your workout results, as well as help to create a leaner, healthier you.
When it comes to healthy options for maximum energy and efficient workout recovery, here are some of my favorite selections that taste as good as they are good for your body.

Rez is a recovery beverage that contains powerful antioxidants along with plant based glucosamine and turmeric.
Glucosamine helps to lubricate the joints and reduce inflammation, which is one of the major causes of pain.

Research also demonstrates that turmeric, found in Rez can also help the body to burn unwanted fat more efficiently.
Rez comes in 3 yummy flavors, Watermelon Peach, Orange Mango, and Fruit Punch. Its sweetened naturally and only contains 10 calories for the entire bottle making it diet friendly and delicious.
