• Why i really came to this thread was to find out what you guys take post work-out to deal with any possible Immune system problems that can occur due to prolonged efforts?

    A pint of chocolate milk for me (it's all about the protein), that seems to stave off the sniffles and lethargy that I used to get after prolonged efforts (Audax for me, so my efforts are 8h+ but it applies just as much to hard-ish 2h training rides). Now I'm doing more running and swimming I try to do the same after any 1h+ effort or 'fast' 30 minute run.

    I'm doing two 1h+ sessions in a day (with hours of gap between) I'm unlikely to have a pint of chocolate milk after both, just can't face that much milk in a day.

    I'm sure there's a boatload of other stuff I could be taking, but I'm not an athlete, just a plodding idiot that likes plodding for hours and hours on end.
