Description

What you eat, when you eat it, and how much you eat has a dramatic effect on your performance. But, not all nutrient combinations work equally well. Our 2:1:1 Recovery™ is based on the latest science demonstrating that blending different types of carbs and proteins maximizes absorption and leads to better results than the use of larger amounts of any single type.* Hydrolyzed whey, micellar casein, and egg albumen proteins provide immediate and sustained amino acid delivery for repair and rebuilding while the precise ratio of simple sugars and rapidly-digesting carbs in 2:1:1 Recovery™ helps refuel and replenish hard-working muscles.* And with 5 grams of added BCAAs in the proven 2:1:1 ratio of Leucine to Isoleucine to Valine to stimulate muscle protein synthesis, there's no question that 2:1:1 Recovery™ is an indispensable part of every serious athlete's routine.

Blender: Add 2 rounded scoops of 2:1:1 Recovery to a blender filled with 12-16 oz of water, milk, or your favorite beverage. Blend for 20-30 seconds. Then add 3-4 ice cubes and blend for an additional 30 seconds. Reduce the liquid and ice by half if you are only using one rounded scoop of 2:1:1 Recovery powder. Spoon Stirred: If you forgot your shaker cup or don't have time to get out the blender, you can add 2:1:1 Recovery in a glass filled with cold water, milk, or your favorite beverage. If you're preparing a 2 rounded scoop serving add 12-16 oz of liquid, for a 1 rounded scoop serving use 6-8 oz. Then mix it up with a spoon for about 30 seconds or until powder is completely dissolved. Suggested Use: Based upon your body weight, activity levels, and performance goals, consume one or more scoops of 2:1:1 Recovery immediately after workouts. Less than 149 bodyweight (lbs): 1 Serving size (Scoops); 150-199 Bodyweight (lbs): 1-2 Serving size (Scoops); 200+ Bodyweight (lbs): 2+ Serving size (Scoops). Tip: Consume a high-protein, high-carbohydrate whole food meal or second serving of 2:1:1 Recovery 2-3 hours after your post-workout recovery shake to maximize stored energy levels for your next workout.

2:1:1 is Amazing Review by Carlos
Taste
Effectiveness
This stuff is amazing!!! Tastes/mixes well (no chunky debris) and I'm not much of a fan of chocolate...recovery time is fantastic, feel like I could lift the very next day after a tough workout..value is also pretty good, and as far as post workout drinks, hits all the necessary BCAA's and proteins/carbs I need. Excellent product for the price, as well as for the effectiveness!! (Posted on 2/28/11)
2:1:1 is my Favorite Recovery Supplement Review by Michael
Taste
Effectiveness
I really love this stuff. I have taken different post workout drinks and this is by far my favorite.
Taste is awesome and the stuff mixes really nicely. I love that they take out the guess work by giving you the perfect ratios 2:1:1, which in return gives you optimum nutrition hence the name of the brand. I really like ON products. They are a solid brand that has been around for years and is well respected by the bodybuilding community. No overhyped products with bogus claims, just straight up quality!
The only thing that I add to this is creatine monohydrate. (Posted on 1/19/11)
